Chapter 4 - Leigh won
After the performance I have to announce the winner...
I walk to the middle of the stage infront of the girls...
"Hello everyone I'm Sebastian Shaw the CEO of Bash Entertainment and recently we've started going into the modelling industry so we need the top supermodels and today with the help of fans and viewers at home you helping make one of these wonderful ladies dreams come true... I would like to thank the performers and also all of the models who participated in this event... So without further ado the supermodel chosen to be signed with Bash Entertainment, and be personally signed with me is..."
I open the envelope...
"Drum roll please"
I look at the name...
"The supermodel signing with Bash Entertainment is Leigh"
I look at Ash she looks completely shocked and walks up to me and hugs me...
"Thank you Bash" she whispers in my ear
"Oh Ash this has nothing to do with me..."
"Still..."
I hand her the Mic...
"I just want to thank each and everyone who voted for me and then thank my parents for their amazing genes otherwise I wouldn't be standing here today... And lastly I would like to thank a friend who gave me the confidence to do this, believe me when I was in high school I didn't look like this I was the opposite and he still believed in me for that I want to say thank you Bash"
She looks at me with tears in her eyes, I know high school was a nightmare for her... I want to hug her and tell her its going to be okay but I'm sure if she wants people to know about me... She gives me the Mic back and then we move towards a table and chairs... I pull a chair out for her and help push it in for her... I take the seat opposite her
"So Leigh is it? I'll explain what it means to sign with, then we'll sign the contract and then I'll introduce you your manager"
"Oh okay Mr Shaw" She says in a jokey way, she's not used to calling me by my Surname
"So Leigh signing with Bash Entertainment, means we give you all the resources you require we'll help you choose which shoots you would like, at the end of the day, you'll be choosing work with your manager also all your endorsement deals that you currently have we will do everything in our power for you to keep them so the rest we will discuss once you've signed with us... Also there are no terms and conditions, its useless adding those no one ever reads those anyway..."
I open the contract, the company lawyer comes out to read the contract with Ash... They read through it... Afterwards she signs it... Then he gets up and leaves...
"So Mr Shaw will you announce my manager now?"
"Yes... Well your manager is Sebastian Shaw"
her and everyone else's jaw drops
"You weren't joking when you said you going to be manager? Bash are you crazy?"
"Yes I wasn't joking I'm going to be your personal manager"
"Oh... Mr Shaw I apologise I was just taken aback... I appreciate your confidence in me, but you are the CEO of the company how can you be my manager as well?"
"Are you questioning my capabilities?"
"No. Of course not... You've built this company from the ground up I know more than anyone how hard you must have worked to get where you are today, when it comes to you, you could do anything..."
"Okay... Then it's settled I'm your manager"
tears roll down her face... I know everything that happened today is a lot for her...
