Remi Grey and Leila Hines are two friends and students in their last year of college who always thought about how difficult it was to get into their respective careers. So one day they begin to outline a plan and sneak into events in order to get background and connections.

One day, in one of the events Remi unknowingly meets Hugo Tiano, one of the richest and most admired CEOs of the business world. He later discovers Remi and Leila’s plan which forces Remi to explain why and how they got there, and how harmless their actions were. Hugo becomes quickly interested in what the two girls can achieve, and sets a close eye on them. But once he discovers who the mind behind the two girls’ plan is, he decides to put Remi’s abilities to test. However, Hugo’s test will not be the only one Remi will have to face, as the more their relationship develops the more problems will come their way. Luckily, Remi will have Hugo’s support in this new area for her that is the business world. Although would their relationship be enough? Can they stand all the jealousy and ill will coming even from the closest people they have?

Aiming High

Just like both Leila and Monica had suggested Remi to do, she called Hugo the next day to tell him that indeed there were a couple of people that seemed to be paparazzi outside her building. 


“I see…” he said when she had explained it “Have you gone out?” 


“No, I haven’t. But I will have to do it soon, I’ve already missed a couple of classes” she said, sitting on her bed. There was a small silence after that. 


“I’ll send a couple of my men for protection” Hugo finally said, looking out the window of the office at his home. It was late in the day already after all, the moon was up, full and white, big and bright, outshining any stars that weren’t already covered by the city lights. But no matter how late it was, Hugo still had work to do and things to plan, even if it was at his house. 


“Won’t that attract more attention, though?” Remi asked, feeling awkward from the thought of having protection.
