Chapter: 1537
Ariana suddenly remembered that they had to sign the contracts today.
She jolted upright and replied hastily, "I'm sorry. Something cropped up. Please wait a little longer. I'm on my way now."
"It's alright. Just drive safely," Tom patiently replied.
After hanging up, Ariana threw on some clothes and rushed out the door to the appointed place.
She did not have an office yet, so she had to book a discreet coffee shop to discuss the contracts.
When Ariana finally arrived at the location, her breath came in short gasps. Looking around, she noticed that almost everyone had been there, waiting for her.
"So sorry I'm late," she apologized breathlessly as she made her way over to the group. It was only then she realized there were two people absent.
"Where are the other two? Are they delayed by something, too?" she asked.
"Conrad had a family emergency this morning and had to leave urgently.
He won't be able to make it today, and we don't have to wait for him," Tom explained. “Calvin texted that he's stuck in traffic, but he is on his way."
Ariana nodded and took a seat. After a short while, Calvin arrived, looking embarrassed.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting," Calvin muttered, avoiding eye contact with the group.
Just then, Ariana turned to look at him and couldn't help but gasp at the sight of his newly done double eyelids and sharply contoured jawline.
The changes in Calvin's features left the others stunned and speechless.
Ariana suddenly sat up in surprise, trying hard to suppress herself from screaming. “Calvin? You got plastic surgery?" she exclaimed.
She couldn't believe Calvin had changed his face secretly in the short time she had been away. She was only gone and had not been keeping tabs on the group for half a month!
Out of the six members, Calvin's physical appearance was not particularly remarkable. However, his captivating presence on stage made up for it, enabling his talents to stand out. Ariana had planned to build Calvin's acting career. She was sure he could achieve the same level of success as Remy with diligent practice and improvement.
However, now that Calvin had undergone plastic surgery to conform to beauty standards, he removed his distinguishing features and Looked dramatically different.
Calvin hung his head in embarrassment, too ashamed to utter a single word.
He felt like the least popular member of the group because some online fans often compared him unfavorably to his teammates. They called him plain and said that he was riding on their popularity.
