It was past twelve noon when Hazel arrived at the Valdez mansion, she enjoyed the night so much that she didn't wake up early. Her whole body was sore and has a hangover from last night's drinks.

She saw Mrs. Trent and two maids waiting in front of the mansion when she arrived.

"Welcome, Ms. Hazel." she greeted her with a bow. "Let us carry your belongings and bring you to your room."

"Where's Mrs. Carmen?" she asked as she handed her suitcase to the maids. "Why is she not here?"

"She left after their breakfast, she has a meeting so she needed to go to her office." Mrs. Trent explains. "I will bring you to your room."

She just shrugged her shoulders and happily followed the housekeeper, but her brow slowly furrowed when she noticed that the housekeeper had taken her to the guest rooms on the first floor.

"What are we doing here?" she asked and raised her right eyebrow. "Shouldn't my room be on the second floor because Caleb's room is there?"

"This is the room Madam told me to prepare for you." the housekeeper said as she opened one of the guest room doors. "Please come inside."

She couldn't do anything but to follow.

Hazel clicked her tongue when she entered the room, that room was too simple for her and was not suitable for the future wife of the heir of the Valdez family.

"Madam also mentioned that you need to go to the company before two in the afternoon. You can call us if you need anything."

The housekeeper quickly left followed by two maids, she clicked her tongue, they didn't even help her bring her suitcase inside her room.

She changed her clothes immediately and went to Mrs. Carmen's company, she wants to talk to her either about why she didn't give her a room on the second floor where their rooms are.

When Hazel arrived at the company, she went straight to Mrs. Carmen's office but her assistant stopped her and took her to a conference room instead. She saw the three models who were sitting inside the conference room, they greeted her which made her smile thinking she has a new project that is why Mrs. Carmen told her to come to her company.

A few minutes later, Hazel saw Mrs. Carmen entered the conference room so she stood up immediately to greet her. But she was surprised to see Neli behind her which made her blood boil in anger.

"What is she doing here?" she asked with a frown.

"Who?" Mrs. Carmen looked behind her. "Neli? Oh, she's the ambassador of the brand so she needs to be here, I called the other models as well so we can talk about your next project."

"But I am the new brand ambassador, right?"

"What are you talking about Hazel, you are just a substitute for Neli because she needs to recover from the accident." Mrs. Carmen said and laughed. "The owner from New York chose Neli as a brand ambassador, not me, so I don't have any rights to remove her."

She felt embarrassed by what she said because no one told her that she was just a substitute for that woman, her manager told her that she will replace Neli but didn't say it was just temporary.

She saw a smirk on Neli's lips causing her to curse her, and heard the other models whispered.

"That's embarrasing."

"Oh my God."

"What a clown."

She looked sharply at Neli but she calmed herself and just smiled.
