“Do you guys have this in your store?" Nathalia asked as she showed the image on her cell phone to the saleswoman." I'm sorry ma, but we don't have this kind of dress currently in our store. But we do have other dresses and I promise that you would love it.” The saleswoman wan suggested." It's a shame, I was hoping to buy that dress for you that would rival her?” Nathalia muttered in disappointment, making Eva look at her."What are you talking about?" She questioned, casting Nathalia a suspicious look.“It's n-othing you should be worried about." Nathalia looked away from Eva. She hadn't told Eva the real truth why she was desperate to make Eva look stunning to the party and that was because she had come the news about the kind of dress Christine planned to wear to the party, it's all over the news. Nathalia had to admit that the dress was beautiful and when she called Eva and asked her if she had a dress, Eva's reply made her realize that she had no clue about the news of Christin
“Miss Nathalia, would you like something to drink?" The head staff asked after Nathalia sat down on one of the couches placed in the dressing room. The head staff clearly knew who Nathalia was, that was why she had been the one to come and welcome her into the store earlier. And based on the way both Nathalia and Eva acted with each other, the head staff could easily tell that they are closer than normal.“Just a glass of water would do, please.” Nathalia politely replied as she scrolled through the fashion catalog that was placed on the table hoping to encounter a more suitable dress that she would for Eva to wear. Even though she was a popular model in the country and outside the country, Nathalia never forgot her manners unlike other celebrities that would just look down on people because they are famous. The head staff nodded and gestured to one of the saleswomen standing in the room to go and get what Nathalia asked for.“Hope she doesn't need a hand in there?" Nathalia asked as
Eva didn't say anything and headed back into the dressing room to change out of the dress and wear her normal dress. “Thank you. Please come again!" Mira said, bowing her head deeply as both Eva and Nathalia walked out of the store. She had personally been the one to help Nathalia check out of their store.She could already picture how large of a commission she was going to get, plus bonuses of how items were purchased. And she even got the chance to engage in a comfortable conversation with the famous supermodel Nathalia. She was expecting Nathalia to be arrogant in person but she was surprised when Nathalia didn't treat any of them in the store like they were beneath her.“All the clothes from that store are beautiful. I think I just found a new place to shop until I drop.” Nathalia commented, holding multiple shopping bag in her hand. One would think that all the items in her hand were for her but she only had a few things she picked for herself and the rest were for Eva.She happ
“Oh my gosh! Is that Damien Cross?!" Lucas’s head snapped at the mention of the wretched bastard. He raised his gaze and sure enough in a distance he saw him.“Damien Cross? Really?!" Someone shouted. A long red carpet was rolled down in the luxurious mall. Employees quickly ran to the scene, forming a collective line along the carpets and quickly bowed at the presence of the Cross heir.“Welcome, Mr. Cross! “ Almost every important employee was present here, lowering their bodies into a deep bow despite being out of breath. “It is Damien Cross!" Instantly, the crowds of women fled to the scene, like flocks of pigeons towards new food. Even the hired paparazzi also disappeared.No matter how much they were paid for this gig, taking a photo of the Cross heir was worth much more. One of Cross pictures could sell from a range of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. “Oh my god, both of the country's most eligible bachelors are here...... “ “What do you mean county's bachelor? Ev
Eva blinked. She turned and glanced back at the woman. Even her name sounds pretty.“Well, I wouldn't know that." She curtly said. Eva raised her hand and placed it on her chest feeling another prick of pain. She watched as Chloe batted her pretty little lashes at Damien.Damian raised his brow, curtly replying before walking off. Chloe let out a small laugh at what he said, the epitome of femme fatale. Damien paused and cast her another glance, but he didn't respond.“Eva!” Eva jolted. " Huh?” "Oh, I said the Patson family are one of the top five families in the country and they are also one of the families in Miami to have a relationship with the Cross family.” Nathalia said. Though she didn't tell Eva the whole information, she decided that it wasn't necessary or the time for Eva to know. The Patson family have had their relationship with The Cross family even before the current patriarch of the Cross family who was none other than Damien's grandfather. The relationship started
“Uh,” Nathalia trailed off after they released the handshake. She glanced at the hesitant Eva to the happy looking Lucas.“Eva, is it true that you'd be attending the birthday party of the Grason patriarch this weekend?" Lucas suddenly asked.Eva glanced at him for a moment then nodded her head in response. “Then do you already have a date? I can be your date-"“I already have a date." Eva suddenly cut off Lucas.“Oh, really. If you don't mind, can I ask who your date is?" Lucas asked curiously. He wanted to know if there was another man he didn't know about.“Nathalia. She is my date to the party." Eva curtly replied with a serious expression.Lucas was taken aback when he heard Eva, he glanced at Nathalia who gave him a small smile and nodded her head. “It's true, I'm going to be my best friend date to the party. “ Nathalia confirmed. “I see," Lucas nodded and the three of them fell into silence waiting for the first person to speak again.Nathalia glanced back and forth between E
Eva paused. Who is this? She suddenly became on high alert as she took a good look at the driver. But then, she noticed a small golden pin on the chauffeur's suit. She narrowed her eyes and faintly made out a symbol of the Cross family.Instantly, she knew who sent the man. Eva swallowed hard as she had no choice. There was a saying that goes: Be Careful not to run away from the tiger and fall into the hands of the lion.However, in her case . To escape from the tiger, she had to get into the dragon's cave. Eva forced a small smile, tightening her grip on Nathalia. “Ah, is the driver you sent for?" Eva loudly asked, making sure that Lucas heard it well.“Yes." Nathalia calmly replied, making the whole scenario look real. Unlike Eva who was on high alert, she knew the driver was from the cross family and it was Damien that had sent him to come and pick them up. But she didn't want to act like she knew since Eva doesn't know that Damian was her cousin, so she has to continue acting cl
Eva saw the chauffeur glance at them through the rearview mirror again. When their eyes met, he offered her a friendly smile and quickly looked away.“Though, I doubt any one among them can ever meet the standard of yours truly, Damien Cross." Nathalia snorted. Somehow she felt that Damien was starting to steal Eva away from her.Eva forced another laugh. " Oh, please. You're making us seem way too familiar-”" Yeah, yeah, sure.” Nathalia quickly hugged Eva and released the embrace." I'll see you later.” Nathalia elegantly stopped out of the car and as expected, she gained people's attention the moment she alighted the car.Eva let out a soft sigh and leaned against the window, watching how Nathalia elegantly strutted her way to the company entrance." Where are we going?” Eva asked the driver when the car began to move down the busy road again."To our destination.” The chauffeur informed, stepping harder on the gas. He was instructed to do incase Eva made an attempt to run.“And whe
