Jill basked in the spotlight like some celebrity, even though tonight wasn't even her show. People swarmed around her anyway, desperate to get on her good side.
She played the modest card perfectly—acting all bashful about the compliments while her eyes practically sparkled with satisfaction.
Technically, she wasn't lying. She did work as a content creator, posting her art online without ever showing her face. But it was all part of some calculated scheme to build her brand.
Her master plan involved casually flaunting her artistic skills while dropping hints about being some rich family's heiress in her early content.
Then she'd "accidentally" reveal her face, buy some trending hashtags, and boom—instant fame.
She just hadn't expected someone to drop this golden opportunity right into her lap. 'The universe must be on my side,' she probably thought.
Jill soaked up every compliment like she and Elana were childhood friends or something.
