The plot thickens My Shrunken Life (Re-Upload) chapter 32 by copier · original author: doreedo

*Doreedo's Note: Had to split this chapter in two because it went on so long. The actual content involving the other house residents is in the follow-up chapter.*


"Yes, that wasn't something I'd given much thought to, but your son must be feeling quite frustrated at his inability to participate in sports and other similar activities. He is at that age after all," Olivia remarked.

In truth, she hadn't given any thought to such a thing, and quite frankly she didn't care. But it was important to her goal that Mary believe her to be a sympathetic person to her son's plight. Things were going well for her- Olivia hadn't really expected any trouble to get in the way of her plan to secure the tiny teen as the newest tool to boost her modeling career, and the only real threat to said plan was if Yakima arrived at the home earlier than Olivia would like.

But by this point, she'd already sat down to tea with Ben's mother, and she was fairly certain that Yakima hadn't made that much progress with her host family. At this point in time, Mary likely knew Olivia better- if Yakima had arrived in town this morning, then up till now Mary likely hadn't exchanged more than basic pleasantries with the buxom Asian.

Now, it wasn't like Olivia was interested in Yakima as a person, but she had done her research. It always paid to stay informed of any potential competition headed her way. According to information from Rachel, this was Yakima's first day in town, and Olivia knew that if she wanted the younger model to know her place it would be better to assert her dominance over Yakima as soon as possible.

And nothing said 'asserting one's dominance' like Olivia strolling into her rival's home away from home and sitting down for a pleasant chat with the mother of her rival's apparent crush.

Olivia couldn't possibly have predicted how this day would've gone when she'd gotten up this morning, and though it didn't show on her face, she was in fact delighted with how things had gone. Not only had she been able to spectacularly one-up her newest rival (a plan technically still in-progress) she'd also been given an unexpected boon to further her modeling career.

Well, she hadn't exactly been given it, per se. More like, it was an opportunity that had dropped into her lap, and she wasn't about to let it go.

Hah, she almost wanted to see the look on Yakima's face when the Asian model found out that her accident this morning had wound up giving Olivia what was essentially unrestricted access to her tiny crush.

Well, almost- she wasn't quite done yet. Olivia needed things to be 'official' before she could truly consider her plan to make Ben her personal, private tool for success. And nothing said 'official' more than a written, signed document.

"Are you free tonight, between 6 and 7? My boss would whip up the paperwork to sign your son on for his... afterschool job, in a heartbeat once I tell her I have your approval. Even better, after how successful she's expecting the photoshoots your son was involved in today, I'm sure she'd be more than happy to finalize his contract with me... *ahem*, his contract with the agency over dinner tonight. And like I said, if you have any concerns about him working at the agency, I'll personally make sure that it's written into the contract that he'll be supervised by me at all times."

--------------

Mary wasn't quite sure how to respond to that- this day was moving so fast for her! The day had started off with Kim's big sister- the shockingly curvaceous (not all like Kim herself) arriving at their house, and then poor Ben had gone missing once again, and Mary had spent most of the afternoon searching for him in vain.

And now this! Mary couldn't deny that she wasn't exactly pleased with her son (her teenage son) being dragged off to a supermodel's photoshoot, but... well, this nice lady- Olivia, whose chest Mary had to make a conscious effort not to stare at- had brought him home safe and sound!

Mary knew that she herself was a busty woman, but she'd freely admit that Olivia was a hard person not to stare at- before meeting the much taller Hispanic lady, Mary wouldn't have believed a woman's breasts could grow so enormous without the aid of surgery, but Olivia was living breathing proof that it was possible. Oh dear, here she was letting her mind get off topic.

Her eyes hadn't exactly been wandering, but she hoped she hadn't been staring at Olivia's gigantic breasts for too long. The last thing she wanted to do was offend the supermodel, who'd already gone out of her way to safeguard Ben and bring him back safe and sound.

And not only that, but she was also being offered a night out on the town!

Well, okay. Maybe not a 'girls' night out' or anything like that- the way Olivia had said it made it seem like this was a business dinner and nothing more. But fine dining was fine dining, and as much as Mary loved her kids, it had been too long since she'd been allowed to go out on her own and enjoy herself like this.

"I, er... that sounds lovely! Yes, if you get the chance, please make sure that clause is written into the contract. I'll sleep better knowing he's being watched over by someone I can trust! And I'd love to meet your boss! I'm sure she's a lovely person!"

--------------

Hah, lovely- this woman didn't have the faintest idea what Rachel was like.

But there was a big reason why Olivia got along with Rachel. Both women put money and fame before everything else, and Olivia was Rachel's most prized cash-cow (an apt, if derogatory phrase in this context.) Furthermore, Olivia hadn't missed all the signs from Rachel earlier- there hadn't been any words exchanged between her and Olivia in private- no, Olivia simply knew how to read her boss.

Had they lived in some old-timey cartoon world, Olivia knew that her boss's eyes would've turned into giant dollar bill signs the very moment she laid eyes on Ben.

So no, Olivia wasn't just confident that Rachel would go along with making a special contract for Ben. Olivia was 110% certain that Rachel would leap at the chance to sign that contract! If anything, Olivia knew she was likely to get a bonus, possibly a big one, for tying Ben down to Rachel's agency.

A bonus like making sure that Ben was exclusively hers and hers alone while they were on the agency's property. Away from Yakima and whatever she could do to try and establish herself as the new queen of the agency!

"Oh, I can't wait to go to dinner tonight! It's been too long since I last went out! Oh, I'll have to dig through my closet for something nice to wear..."

Olivia raised an eyebrow as Mary turned away from her, standing up from the table they'd both been sitting at. The tiny kid's mother was muttering excitedly after her initial joyful exclamation, puttering around the kitchen like a hummingbird closing in on a bird feeder.

"Oh, and I can't thank you enough! My little boy, getting his first part time job! I'm so proud of him! And I know you'll take great care of him! I can rest easy knowing he's in your capable hands!"

Hook, line, and sinker. Mary had her back turned and thus couldn't see the wide, pleased smirk on Olivia's face, but if she had, she might've reconsidered the job offer the towering supermodel was giving her son...


What happens next?
1) Two of the other house residents show up, attracted by the noise in the kitchen.
2) Mary thinks that letting Ben get to know Olivia better (as she'll be his 'chaperone' at the agency) is a good idea and wants Olivia to keep him with her until dinner that night.
