Chapter Foor. The secret portal and identity in Paris.
Robert Leroy has expressed his concerns about life in Paris, especially in relation to finding a job. He hadn’t worked in decades, and his business education, while valuable, seemed outdated. In addition, he was concerned about the lack of academic training of his son, Kayus (now Benjamin Leroy), despite the teachings they would give him at home.
Melinda, Benjamin’s mother, tried to reassure her husband. It allowed that even though he may not have worked for very long, his management skills and prior experience could still be valuable. In addition, she mentioned that Paola had obtained degrees in several areas, provided by the witch Merinda, which would enable everyone to find job opportunities.
“My love, you still have a lot of valuable knowledge in business and finance. I’m sure we can find a way to apply those skills in Paris,” Melinda said, with an encouraging smile.
Benjamin also spoke out, demonstrating confidence in his own abilities. He felt grateful for the teachings he had received from his father and was confident in his resources. “I learned a lot from you, Dad, and I’m sure that will open doors for me in Paris. I don’t have a formal degree, but I have valuable knowledge I can use,” said Benjamin with experience.
Paola also added: “Don’t worry Mr Robert. The witch Merinda presented me with diplomas in various areas such as economics, finance and cooking. We have all the tools to start from scratch in Paris. I magically got those diplomas, but they are authentic and can help us get jobs.”
Robert was surprised to see the diplomas and carefully examined the details of the documents. They seemed genuine and would provide as desired to pursue opportunities in Paris.
“This is amazing. I can’t believe these diplomas are real. With this, we can have a chance to get a job and start our lives over here”, said Robert, still surprised by the revelation.
With renewed hope, the Leroy family embraced the idea that they were prepared to face the world in Paris. They had unique skills and the confidence to start a new journey.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Together they felt ready to explore the endless opportunities that Paris has to offer. Each member of the Leroy family was determined to forge their own path, honoring their passions and talents. Paris became a symbol of a new beginning and the chance to embrace a fulfilling life, where they could be themselves without hiding their true identity.
With the diplomas and the protection of the lotus rings, the Leroy family was ready to live a new story in the city of lights. The future was full of possibilities, and they were ready to face it, with courage, love and togetherness.
As the morning sun peeked through the curtains, Benjamin shifted in bed and slowly opened his eyes. When his gaze turned to the mirror across the room, he couldn’t help but notice his reflection in the mirror, before in Draconian he didn’t appear, maybe something had changed. When he got up seeing his reflection in the mirror he almost cried, because for 200 years he had not seen his own reflection in the mirror, it was something normal for vampires, but now Benjamin his new self was in front of a different man, but he did not appreciate it very much its ugliness, which remained intact. His heart sank and a wave of disappointment washed over him.
To make matters worse, when Benjamin swung his legs over the side of the bed and tried to get up, he misjudged the distance and stumbled, hitting the edge of the bed. But it wasn’t a problem he didn’t feel any pain. It felt like the universe was conspiring against him on this crucial day.
What’s going on, because on my first day in this beautiful city, everything seems to be going wrong.
But despite the setbacks, Benjamin found a spark of excitement burning inside him. Today was the day he had dreamed and hoped for for years. It was her first interview with the biggest modeling agency in Paris.
Paris, the city of lights, fashion and endless opportunities, was waiting for him. Benjamin spent countless hours practicing his walk, perfecting his poses, and honing his craft. He knew this was his chance to prove himself and realize his aspirations of becoming a successful model.
Determination written on his face, Benjamin turned away from the reflection in the mirror and dismissed the doubts in his mind. He reminded himself that imperfections were merely temporary and that his true potential lay beyond physical appearances. Armed with his portfolio, which he had been preparing for decades, treasured under lock and key, his drawings and models for none of the leaders of Ladriel to take, and he kept it full of confidence and an unshakable belief in himself, Benjamin set out to face the challenges that lay ahead. He would face the world, not in spite of his imperfections, but because of them.
One month later.
The move to the new city in Paris was crazy, they found a great house, a good neighborhood, everything went very quickly, but Benjamin was very happy, and the big day of his and Paola’s interview had arrived.
Quarto do Benjamin
The cell phone rings.
But Benjamin doesn’t even move. It looked like the tiredness that flowed from the new and beautiful Paris, even though he was wearing the necklace next to the ring, which protected him from the sun’s rays, Benjamin looked a little tired after they moved, he was very excited for his first day of the agency interview, he researched everything about this agency that was the most famous in all of Paris. Lying down, his mother Merida calls him.
– Benjamin, my love you will be late. Are you getting ready my love?
_ Oh! What mom? Hmmm just a little bit more.
_ You will be late son.
_ Damn I’m going to be late!
Benjamin got up quickly, grabbed the towel and went to take a quick shower.
I grabbed my plaid blazer. Black dress pants, my sneakers and finally my glasses. My ring, with the amulet, I could never forget.
I wanted to look good, but looks don’t help, so I look like a nerd with thick glasses and wear braces.
