action

Jane Quimby is a regular 16-year-old high school student who lives with her older brother, Ben. The two have to get by on their own because their father has died and their mother disappeared a few years ago. With Ben currently unemployed, they are gradually falling behind on the bills for their house. Then Jane spots an advertisement in the newspaper for an internship at the Donovan Decker fashion company . She conducts her interview with the successful designer Gray Chandler Murray via video interview. But she thinks that Jane will present herself for the job as her assistant and does not give her time to clear up the misunderstanding. When Jane learns of the $ 32,000 annual salary, which Gray increases to 34,000 a short time later, Jane accepts the job.

From then on, she led a secret double life : in the morning she was a student and from midday she worked for Donovan Decker . She only tells her best friend Billy about this double life. At her job, however, she quickly realizes that the aggressive India is taking advantage of Gray's absence and so she tries by all means to boot Gray out to take over her job.
