Birthday Plans (2)

"She's planning to sign with Skyline, Mother!" Aditi informed happily, glancing at her surprised friend who was probably stunned by Charli's generous offer.

Leila was indeed surprised that Charli would offer her a modeling slot. Even though her father worked in the same industry and she was planning to work for him, who wouldn't pray for more work, which means more money?

Her pocket is open!

"I appreciate your kindness, Miss Charli," she finally said with a smile.

Charli shook her head. "Call me Charli instead. No, call me Auntie, that sounds better."

Leila didn't stand on ceremony and immediately comply. "Okay, Auntie."

A smile appeared on Charli's face and she happily turned to Aditi. "Give Leila my contact. If you have any problems, just contact me. I'm more deeply involved in the industry than your father," she added with a chuckle.

Leila nodded, not expecting Charli to want to be her backer.
