“Please enjoy,” I said, offering tea and coffee to the guests. I didn't expect today's visit to leave me with so many questions.“You look well, Eva.” The middle-aged woman sitting in front of me smiled warmly. Since getting out of the car, her eyes had not looked away from me. There was warmth in her gaze, a clear sense of relief. She was very grateful to see that I was doing well.“Praise God, I'm fine. How about Mommy? Always taking your medication regularly, right? I've told Maria to keep monitoring the consumption of medication and vitamins.”Marguerite's smile widened, while her son just grumbled in disapproval. His face was turned away, and Roderick showed an unmistakable aura of dislike here. I tried to ignore him, even though my heart was beating a little faster.“I didn't used to want to live anymore—”“Mom,” Roderick warned immediately. His tone of voice was impatient. ”I agreed to your request to meet Eva, but not to talk nonsense.”He got up from where he was sitting, cho

I didn't expect you to turn to another man so quickly.I almost dropped the plate I had just washed. I didn't expect there to come a time when I would be alone with a man I didn't want to see again. Although... it's difficult. Since his arrival, I have kept my distance so that we don't greet each other. Occasionally I would only interrupt the conversation with small talk.I tried to normalize myself. I couldn't be affected by his arrival. Out of the corner of my eye, I realized that the man was not far from my back. The small kitchen and the placement of furniture, which was far different from where I used to live, made us quite close.“What do you need?” I asked, trying to calm myself. I didn't want my hands to tremble even though my heart was praying that Roderick would quickly leave me alone.The intimidation that Roderick brought to my life made it easy for me to remember that the man didn't care where he put pressure. Like now, as soon as

Maria stared at the food she had just finished making. Occasionally she asked the main gatekeeper if the guests of this family had arrived. Maria had no idea that the woman really existed here.Actually, Maria didn't want to make any food, but she realized that her position here was only that of a butler. The person in charge of taking care of all the needs in this big house, especially the banquets.“They're coming!”Fortunately, the glass that Maria was arranging did not slip from her grip. She rubbed her chest slowly. Ordered some of the servants to prepare to serve well even if ... half-heartedly. The first time she met the beautiful woman, Maria felt sympathy. How a love story with her master had to end because of a marriage arranged by the great master.She also thought that the woman who bore the status of Roderick Langley's mistress was just taking advantage of the opportunity. Unfortunately, time passed and that assumption was shattered. It wasn't only Maria who felt how sinc

On the way home, Marguerite Langley didn't say much. She looked straight ahead while occasionally enjoying the nighttime road. Sometimes they were still caught in a little traffic jam at some central point, but it didn't last long. For the rest, their trip back to the Langley residence went smoothly.“I hope this is the first and last visit to Evangeline's house, Mom.” Roderick Langley said while adjusting his seat. He had wanted to talk since earlier, but the interruption of the many messages that Isadora Kensington sent made him impatient to approach the woman immediately.“You forbid your mother from having a relationship with someone else?” Marguerite glanced at her son. There was resentment and anger that she could not express easily.“Mommy can have relationships with other people, as long as it's not Evangeline,” Roderick said in a final tone. ‘Instead of spending unnecessary time with her, why doesn't Mommy try to get close to my future wife?”Marguerite's stomach felt like it

Maximilian smiled broadly after once again checking the pages of the contract that had just been signed. His wish had come true. He could have predicted it, but getting the signature of approval from the person who would be willing to bring Lavender was really this much fun.The euphoria reminded him of what he had done to Ursula, Isadora, and Gustav. Just like when he got approval, a feeling of joy enveloped his heart. Everything that was in his mind and his brain's design materialized and ... Boom! Everything received a very warm welcome.His instincts as an artist rarely miss the mark. That's why as soon as Eva approved, he was sure that this year's show would belong to Trinity Fashion. It closed very well and Max also felt that the four pillars were already standing. Not standing completely, anyway, because he was just about to train the other one to stand up and challenge the world.“You look very happy, boss.” One of the finance division staff entered the room, bringing some fil

“Welcome to the party!” Giselle squealed with excitement as soon as she opened the door to her apartment. She first checked who the guest was who came this afternoon, just to make sure that the awaited figure was indeed Evangeline Rutherford.Eva just chuckled, accepting Giselle's outstretched hand, who looked so excited to pull her in. Since this apartment is located in a high-security neighborhood, Giselle seemed to deliberately open the door wide, as if to let it be known that something fun was going on inside.As Eva remembers, Giselle's living room usually has a large L-shaped sofa. On the wall is a large TV that she believes also functions as a mini home theater. The surrounding equipment is sophisticated and complete enough to relax, spending time watching the best movies released this year.But now?The room has been decorated in such a way. The sofa was moved, giving more space that should have been occupied by a glass table, now spac

Evangeline read the sheet that Brina shared, which listed the schedule and preparations for the upcoming show. Since this was the first time she had been exposed to the modeling world, her schedule was so busy and tight. Nevertheless, she couldn't complain. Everything that is beautiful at the end of the rainbow is certainly not easy to achieve.“I'm only being tolerant today, Eva.”Brina finally spoke to him after previously being preoccupied with three girls who were so noisy. They complained incessantly, from things that made sense to things that sounded like excuses. But Brina was not someone who was easily subdued. For her, enough time had been wasted having fun.Harvey already had a busy schedule for next week. Giselle was preparing for a grand event in the Western States. Meanwhile, Ursula had an agenda as an inspirer on one of the well-known fashion channels. Considering that the event would be broadcast live, Ursula's performance had to be pe

It seems that the words of the three girls who have recently entered Evangeline's life are true. Brina is a cruel stepmother. I don't know how many times Evangeline has fallen, walked against Brina's will, and little—goodness gracious—only a little bit has Evangeline lowered her hands, she was given a stern warning.The cane that Brina carried along with her during Evangeline's training sessions had hit her hands and feet countless times. No. Not to be hit as a form of warning, but the tip of the cane had a dye that immediately stuck to Evangeline's skin. Signaling so many mistakes she had made.“Once again, Eva.” Brina pointed to the end of the branching catwalk in front of her. The branches also formed other angles connected to each other. So once around practicing walking there, Evangeline stopped several times right at the intersection. Making some standard poses as Brina directed.Not only Brina was there. The style director was also

The days passed quickly. Practice after practice that Evangeline went through made her more confident and much calmer about her nervousness. She had tried various styles of clothing just to smooth her steps on the catwalk. Brina even deliberately created an outdoor area so that Evangeline would also be accustomed to facing all the bad possibilities that could happen during the show.Although Brina said it was very unlikely, there was no harm in preparing.“I don't think I need to worry too much,” Brina said as she handed over a bottle of mineral water. The last training session was over. A look of joy and relief was clearly visible on Evangeline's face.“I'm trying my best, Brina. Without you I am nothing.”Brina laughed. “Say that after all the events are over, Eva. This is just the beginning, there will be many stages to go through until you are safe.”Evangeline laughed. Enjoying the refreshing water as it moistened her throat. Some people were busy tidying up the rest of their tra

Evangeline took a deep breath as soon as Marguerite Langley's car pulled out of her garage. Her thoughts were suddenly full and fatigue was eating away at her remaining energy. “I didn't think Rick was really that crazy.”But just as she was about to step back into the house, her eyes caught sight of the red car she knew so well. As well as the figure getting out of it.“Am I interrupting?” he asked innocently.The intimidating glare and the undeniably commanding voice were gone. Evangeline recognized that tone as Max's annoying one.“If I said I was interrupting, you would have forced your way in.” Evangeline hissed angrily, then opened the gate again with a single push. “Come in. By the way, Mommy Rita brought you a cake. You'll like it.”“Your ex-in-law?”A slight grin formed on Evangeline's lips. ”I can't think of it that way. We had a good relationship long before my marriage.”“But can I enjoy the cake with a cup of coffee? You know, I've been stressed out this afternoon.”Evang

Evangeline took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Once again she made sure that the dress she was wearing was appropriate, that none of the accessories were loose, including the straps of her heels this time. The training session was coming to an end and she had to master the stage immediately. Brina said that Evangeline was making fewer and fewer mistakes.Brina herself was surprised that Evangeline was so quick to master what she was directing. Could it be because of the week Evangeline spent with the three noisy models? If she could bring about such drastic changes, maybe Brina would loosen up the training time a little. Three days had passed and Evangeline really amazed her. Oh, it wasn't just Brina who was amazed, but Nico too. Many angels can be taken from various camera angles, and as a model who already has a lot of experience, Evangeline is able to do it.“I'm ready,” said Evangeline after making sure everything was worn properly. Her confidence was always at its maximum limi

“Aren't you asleep yet, Giselle?“ asked Harvey, who, when he woke up, saw his friend on the balcony. Alone enjoying the night.“Ah, not sleepy yet.” Giselle turned and gave a smile, even though her hand immediately grasped her warm chocolate cup. A sign that she was surprised by Harvey's arrival. “Why did you wake up?”“Thirsty,“ Harvey replied, narrowing his eyes suspiciously. ‘Did something bother you?’ He chose to approach Giselle, who was still loyal to her position.“Nothing.” Giselle shook her head immediately, still displaying the best smile she had. Their work resumed on Monday. They didn't want their mood to be ruined because of what Giselle was holding in—even though... she couldn't bear to be silent.The girl chose to leave Harvey because she was sure that her best friend would not let her go easily. She didn't want to be asked many questions about what she was feeling. Really, it was so annoying.“You're not the kind of person who brags like that, Giselle. It takes a skill

Isadora put down her wine glass with a smile that wouldn't go away. Her eyes looked joyfully at the interlocutor who had just given her important information.“You can always count on me, Aunt Samantha.”The middle-aged woman smiled proudly. “I'd be much happier if you could count on me.”“Why should I refuse your help?” Isadora giggled. ‘You've always supported me for a long time, Auntie. How could I just forget about you?”Samantha waved her hands with a blushing face. ’I always felt that you were the most suitable wife for Roderick, not that burden of a woman. Why would my stupid niece just accept it?”The smile on Isadora's face vanished, replaced by a sad and sorrowful gaze. Her shoulders drooped weakly as if Samantha's words had really hurt her badly. “Rick said he did it reluctantly.”“You're right. It was all because of Marguerite's persuasion! That woman is just like Evangeline. Just a burden on the Langley family. Unfortunately, our grandfather, Kenneth Langley, really liked

Nothing was more enjoyable for Evangeline Rutherford as she stepped through the lobby of Giselle's unit. Her steps were not as fast as usual, her body felt crushed due to the intensive training schedule ahead of this weekend. But she still came, fulfilling her promise to make healthy snacks for her three friends.In the midst of fatigue that gnawed at her joints, Eva's lips remained thinly curved. None of the pain could match the warmth she felt because there was someone waiting for her arrival.Just yesterday she wore various dresses, one after another. Accessories with intricate details and heavy wrapped around her body. It is said that the training aims to improve balance when walking on the catwalk. But what she wore was not just any object. A crown, with strands of crystal as clear as dew, was placed on her head. A crown that Brina herself called an original work, made of Swarovski crystals, gold-plated and other precious gems.Imagine if I slipped, Eva thought at the time, not o

The floor-sweeping long dress studded with Swarovski crystals hugged Giselle's slender body perfectly—as if designed just for her. The cut of the dress depicted every curve of her body with deadly elegance. I knew that tonight, all the spotlight would be on her. Giselle was a star. And tonight, the stage belonged to her.I have witnessed countless similar scenes. But for some reason, every time she steps out in such a dazzling outfit, I am overcome with envy and admiration. She is too striking to ignore, and I know that Giselle's presence is a stinging surprise to everyone.“Are you sure this isn't an exaggeration?” she asked, fixing her hair in a neat bun, like a goddess from an ancient painting. ‘It's just a regular gala dinner, isn't it?”I—Evangeline Rutherford—smiled slightly. ’It may be just an ordinary dinner to you. But believe me, your presence will make it extraordinary.”She sighed softly, then clicked her tongue. “All right, let's go. I don't like to linger there.”A young

Actually, I never wanted to get back in Maximilian Von Ziegler's car. I refused many times, but he always managed to find a loophole to get me to sit in the passenger seat next to him. Including covert methods, almost resembling threats, regarding my performance in training sessions in the past few days. Even though I still clearly remember how Brina and Nico sincerely praised me. That I had crossed a line that I had previously been unable to cross.But still, I chose to remain silent. Refraining from the complaints that wanted so badly to come out of these lips—because in the end, this was the path I chose for myself. There was no turning back. I had already paved the road behind me. Besides, even if I turned back, the question of how I would support myself would always loom.“At the end of the road, there is a fairly popular bakery. Would you like to stop by?” Max asked, breaking the thick silence between us.This time, I preferred to silence my voice. Not because I was reluctant to

“Your work today was truly extraordinary, Giselle. All the photo shoots went perfectly and I think everyone involved in this project agrees that you are shining brighter than ever.”Giselle just chuckled lightly. She received a bottle of mineral water in her hands, which she immediately drank without hesitation. The midday heat was really scorching, burning the skin and leaving a thirst that never went away. Tiana, her loyal assistant, immediately came with a large umbrella, shading the model's head from the excruciating heat.I just observed from a distance.They praised her. As if everything was perfect. But behind the dazzling light of the camera flash, there was something that the outside spotlight couldn't digest. I knew her well enough to know that Giselle's smile didn't always mean happiness.“Thank you. You guys worked really hard today too. I feel very comfortable,” Giselle said with a big, warm smile while still keeping her distance. She is a star who knows how to shine, but
