Inside the Grand land VIP section. The VIP section didn't have any glaring neon lamps or loud music. On the contrary, the environment was rather quiet and intimate. This was where the urban white-collared workers and wealthy rich individuals came to relieve their stress.

However, in a private room, a small social gathering was taking place. The gathering consisted of all the well- known bachelors in the city and highly wealthy businessmen.

In a dark corner, A man who had a cold and aloof aura with an indifferent expression was being surrounded by a group of people.

These groups of people present weren't just ordinary wealthy people, most of them were the top giants of Miami and seeing them was very rare, however, they were all gathered here in one place not because of the event but because they were here because of a special guest who was no other than the man sitting in the dark corner.

"It's very rare to see Mr. Cross in this kind of social gathering. This time must have been an exception for Mr. Cross." The man said with a smile on his face. He was the chairman of HB Corps Simon Davis. Both the HB Corps and Cross Enterprise have been business partners for the past 5 years.

"However, I'm glad that I could see Mr.Cross here today."Getting no response, he became more anxious thinking Damien was offended by his words. He quickly beckoned for a pretty lady in a tight black body con dress a few meters away to come over.

"Mr. Cross, please enjoy this little gift from me. I made sure to prepare the very best for you." He glanced at Damien and smiled.

The lady in the black dress was exceptionally beautiful but it was all thanks to the heavy makeup and bright red lipstick. The black dress hugged and outlined her body perfectly, showing her curvy hips and big breast. There wasn't a man who sees her that wouldn't definitely allow her to serve him. However, Damien didn't look at her, he just frowned in disgust and irritation when he heard Simon.

"It isn't needed." His deep voice sounded as he refused before the girl could near him.

The girl froze in place when she heard Damien's straight forward refusal. She could only plaster a forced smile on her face and stood beside Simon.

"Chairman Davis, I've been hearing some rumors and I don't think it's wise enough of your younger sister to go around pretending to be my fiancée. I have no fiancee and neither have I ever met your sister or plan to. If you can't clear the thoughts of her mind, you can consider our contract being terminated as a special gift." Damien stated in a stern and affirmative tone with an indifferent expression.

Simon was dumbfounded by Damien's words. Since when did his younger sister start spreading such rumors and he did not know about it. He needs to have a long conversation with her when he gets home. He can't allow her to use her foolishness to ruin his life.

"I…… I…. I… I didn't know my younger sister did such a thing. However, don't worry, Mr. Cross. I'll definitely talk to my sister and make sure to clear up all such rumors. You don't have to go that far to terminate our contract." Simon hurriedly remark.

" I hope you do bid on it. Now, if you would excuse me." Damien nodded his head and stood up from his seat and headed out of the private room to the men's room.

After Damien left, the girl in black dress took her seat next to Simon, folding her arms in front of her chest.

" What was the meaning of what happened earlier, Simon? You said if I dolled up and look pretty, that Mr. Cross would definitely court me? He didn't even spare me a glance!" She spoke angrily, feeling agitated by how she was treated by Damien.

He wiped aways the sweat that had formed on his forehead when he heard that Damien wants to terminate the contract but knowing that he still had a chance, he was relieved and turned to look at the girl.

"Kira dear, I already have a plan. Besides, no man can ever withstand your charm and skills, not even me. That's why I chose you because you're perfect for this job." Simon whispered as he leaned forward and planted a kiss on Kira's cheeks.

Blushing in embarrassment, Kira gently pushed his face." Stop it, this place is an open place and beside right now I'm only for Mr. Cross " She said.

"What, do you think I'd be going through this stress to get you hooked up with Mr. Cross without you returning the favor." He remarked as his hand gently caressed Kira's exposed leg sliding his hand inside her gown but Kira immediately slapped his hand away.

"You really have to stop this, Simon. Mr. Cross didn't even look at me. Who knows if the rumors about him liking men was true. He is always going around with that handsome looking secretary of his." Kira remarked, she couldn't believe that Damien didn't even feel attracted to her. It affected her feminine charm.

"And if Mr. Cross comes back with you doing this, it would surely ruin everything. I'll definitely make sure to return the favor later, if you can get me hooked with Mr. Cross." Just as she finished speaking, Damien returned from the restroom.

Seeing that Damien still didn't spare her a glance as he took his seat, she pouted her lips and she lowered her voice.

"What and how do you plan to get me together with Mr. Cross?" she questioned.

Simon was a little annoyed that Kira stopped him earlier, but when he heard her question, a smirk formed on his face.

"You have to seduce him." Simon said.

"Excuse me, what was I trying to do earlier? Is that really your plan?" Kira inquired, confused by what Simon meant.

Simon chuckled when he saw the confusion on Kira's face. "From the information that I've gathered, Mr. Cross would be spending the night here. Later, I'll drug his drink with two doses of aphrodisiac. Once the gathering is over, you can just make your way to his room and the rest is on how you seduce him. There would be no way he would be able to resist you once the drugs take effect." Simon explained to Kira with a grin on his face.

Kira grinned from ear to ear, hearing Simon's plan."I knew you figured out a brilliant plan but can't you make the doses three?" she asked, feeling excited about the plan.

"Unless, you wish to handle the consequences if something happens to him?" Simon replied.

"Fine." They kept talking about their perfect plan but neither of them stopped to think of the consequences.

Damien Cross, wasn't just the CEO of the Cross Enterprise. He was a man that even the government wouldn't dare to offend, not even the leaders of the underworld wanted to get on his bad side. No one dared to plot against him and ever get away. Those that did are longer living.

    Meanwhile, at the club on the first floor. Eva was still seated at the bar counter and completely drunk as she had already finished two bottles of alcohol and was on her third bottle which was about to finish. The bartender who had been watching her from the sideline walked up to her when he saw pouring the remaining drink in the bottle to fill her glass cup. "Miss, I think you should go home now. You're too drunk or do you have someone who can come pick you up?" He said as he cleared the bottles in front of Eva. "Home?" Eva repeated. She also wanted to go home. She wanted to sleep in her soft and comfortable king-size bed. Tonight was supposed to be her wedding night which she was supposed to share with her lovely husband. However, it was just wishful thinking. "How pathetic!" Eva muttered and downed the rest of the drink in her glass. To think the night of her wedding day would be spent at a hotel…. Well, at least it was a five-star hotel and a very famous one. "You," Eva waved

    The next morning, the sun was just peeking in the sky, slowly brightening up the whole city. Eva was sleeping soundly on a soft king-size bed in a hotel room.Eva let out a soft groan in pain as she groggily blinked her eyelid. 'Ughhh!!....Why do I feel so weak?'She felt like a person who had been specially graced and honored with the biggest hangover.She felt mouth was dry as she clutched her head which was throbbing in pain with her hand. Eva tried to open her eyes but due to the faint light from the rising sun outside that had shined through the small gap in the curtain which brightened up the darkroom. Eva had to close her eyes back and blinked a few times to adjust to the brightness.Staring at the unfamiliar ceiling, and taking a proper glance at the room. It was spacious, the walls were painted in white giving the room a bright ambience. It was decorated with various expensive modern furnitures giving the whole room a cozy and homey atmosphere. Eva could tell that this was a

    "W-what?! Take responsibility for what?" Eva questioned, confused and taken aback by what the man said. She immediately gathered her strength and pushed the man's body off her and sat up on the bed again. "Why are you acting clueless? You have to take responsibility for taking advantage of me last night." He replied in a cold tone as he sat up on the bed too glaring at Eva. Eva fell into a daze for a few minutes when she heard his reply. 'Advantage?' She repeated in her mind. "Did…. Did I hear you correctly, Mister? Eva questioned when she was finally able to regain her composure."You mean…. I should take responsibility for last night?" she added while pointing at herself. "Yes." His response curt, as his facial expression remained cold and indifferent. "Tsk…" Eva scoffed out in disbelief when she heard his confident response. "Why would I be the one to take responsibility for what happened? Are you seriously asking me that?" Eva remarked, this time her tone and expression sudden

    Eva stared at the wall in daze, as the man had long left her and was now in the shower. The sound of running water brought her back to her senses, she turned her head and glanced at the wall clock in the hotel room. '11:30''Damn it! That bastard dare to do this to me and not give me a response!' Without a single thought, Eva ignored the throbbing and aching body and struggled to get out of the bed. With the sound of running water, she made up her mind and came to a decision. Glaring at the closed bathroom door, Eva grabbed one of the robes on the shelf and covered her naked body. Seeing her black dress she had worn yesterday on the floor, she sighed in sorrow and pity. The dress was the only one made and she knew how much stress she had to go through before she got this dress, it also cost her a fortune as the dress was so expensive. It was a dress she had prepared to wear after her wedding ceremony but since there was no ceremony she had worn it to the club last night. But now

    Eva closed her eyes and sucked in a deep breath to calm herself as she pulled the robe to cover upper body and slowly opened her eyes back. Turning away from the mirror. There was still a lot for her to do so she decided to put last night incident behind the back of her head and focused on the present. She glanced at her torn black dress which was placed on the bed, there was definitely no way she was going to wear that torn dress out of here. Eva grabbed her cellphone and dialed a number. "Hello, Gwen. Can you get me some new set of clothes. Make it a long sleeve and turtle neck and a new pair of shoes and lady undies." Eva quickly ordered immediately the call connected. "Oh my God! Eva! Where have you been since last night. I heard about what happened to you. Are you-" "I'm fine, just get me what I asked you to." Eva said interrupting Gwen sentence "Okay, where do you want me to bring the dress to?" Gwen didn't bother to pry any further and asked. "Grand land Hotel. And don't

    In a dark room with no source of light, a young lady was lying lazily on the king size bed wrapped in her blanket. Because she was sleeping so soundly without any distractions, she didn't hear the knocking sound from her door.The light know became a little harsher and louder, it echoed throughout the entire room but there was no response. After a few minutes of continuous knocking and no response, the door slammed opened without further warning.A young beautiful woman strolled into the room, her hips swaying to every steps she took, long slender legs, seductive eyes and perfect body shape, it wasn't hard to tell that this woman was a world-reowned high class supermodel.A scowl appeared on Nathalia's face as she stopped right in front of the bed. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and glared down at the lady like a mother ready to scold her daughter for sleeping late for school."Are you for real? It's 1:30 in the afternoon and you're still in bed?" Nathalia remarked as she

    While Eva was busy with her business in the bathroom, Nathalia sat on the bed waiting patiently for her best friend with a smile on her face.****"Ugh! I hate it. It looks hideous and weird on me, Thalia." Eva complained with a frown, expressing her hatred for the dress while running a tired hand through her hair. There were bags beneath her eyes from the endless night of tossing and turning around in bed without falling asleep."You've been saying that for the other dresses I've picked out for you and what is up with your wardrobe? Since when did you become a nun?" Nathalia remarked as she threw the dress on the bed.Eva sighed for the nth time. Ever since the incident nine months ago on her wedding day which made her the laughing stock of Miami, her confidence had reiterated to the last limit. The glittering twinkle in her eyes from being engaged to Mark had vanished long ago leaving only dead, lifeless eyes.It wasn't easy for her to lose everything in just a single span of one ni

    The two ladies quickly garnered attention immediately as they walked into the lobby and headed towards the entrance. With each step Nathalia took, her wavy hair would sway and bounce as the wind ruffled the edge of her yellow layered dress. Even though Nathalia didn't mean to gain attention her beauty was already doing the job.The men they walked past had their eyes widened in bewilderment as they couldn't help but leered and took a second glance. They were all shamelessly drooling at the sight.Eva had a smirk on her face when she noticed the reaction of the people around them. She was too surprised since she was already used to these looks whenever she walked with Nathalia.While the two ladies chatted away, Eva was unaware that the men were actually staring and admiring the stunning beautiful woman beside the supermodel Natalia. Although Nathalia wasn't a woman whose beauty could be ignored, she was a seductress as many called her. However, the woman next to her was on another lev

    Eva sighed, but she maintained her composure. “That’s not true,” she said firmly. “I have nothing but respect for your designs and what you’ve achieved in this industry.”Victoria raised an eyebrow. “And you expect me to take your word over hers?”Eva met her gaze, unflinching. “Yes. But I also believe actions speak louder than words. Let me prove my sincerity by working with you on something that reflects your vision entirely.”Victoria’s expression softened slightly. “So you’re proposing a collaboration—on my terms?”Eva nodded. “I want to respect your artistry, not overshadow it. Whatever you need, I’m here to deliver.”Victoria hummed thoughtfully, tapping her fingers against the table.Eva arched her brow. “What? You think I’m lying?”“No, I can tell you’re being sincere.” Victoria leaned back, crossing her arms. “I was just wondering how you managed to be such a bitch last night, and now here you are, offering me a deal. It’s like you’re two completely different people. My frien

    After the dinner, Eva sat in her dressing room, her expression calm but her mind sharp with suspicion. Gwen and Trix stood nearby, sensing the shift in her mood.“Something’s off,” Eva finally said, leaning back on the couch. “Victoria was completely different tonight. I’m sure Christine is behind this.”Trix frowned, scrolling through her tablet. “Wouldn’t be the first time. Christine’s tricks are anything but subtle.”“She must have fed Victoria something damaging,” Gwen added. “Victoria isn’t the type to act on baseless rumors unless she was nudged in the right direction.”Eva scoffed. “I expected Victoria to be more rational than to fall for empty gossip.”“Well, think about it,” Gwen countered, crossing her arms. “Victoria has never met you before. If she treated you that way tonight, then someone must’ve gotten to her first. And given the way you reacted, it only reinforced whatever she was told.”Eva arched a brow. “What? You wanted me to play nice and kiss up to her? If she wa

    Two days after Christine’s meeting with Victoria, the pre-collaboration dinner finally arrived.Victoria moved through the room with an air of grace, greeting the models with warm professionalism. Even Christine received a polite smile, which only fueled her satisfaction—Victoria had clearly taken the bait.“It looks like she believed everything you told her,” Tanya murmured under her breath as she stood beside Christine, observing Victoria’s interactions.Christine smirked, keeping her expression composed. “Patience. She may have bitten, but we need to see how deep the hook is.” Her gaze swept the room, searching for Eva. She had expected her sister to make an entrance by now, yet there was no sign of her.“Where is Evangeline?” Christine’s voice carried a hint of irritation.“That evil woman is over there,” Tanya scoffed, tilting her head toward the center of the room.Christine followed her line of sight and found Eva effortlessly commanding attention. She was surrounded by a group

    The buzz of an elite designer collaboration filled the industry. Working with the renowned designer Victoria Byrd wasn’t just a career milestone; it was a privilege. Known for her impeccable artistry and influence, Victoria's approval could make or break a model's reputation.For Eva, the collaboration was an exciting opportunity, not that she needed it for any particular reason. She just wanted to get her hands on the opportunity so that Christine doesn't. Moreso, Victoria admired professionalism and authenticity, two traits Eva embodied. However, Christine saw it as yet another chance to undermine Eva.“Tanya, get me an appointment with Victoria Byrd,” Christine ordered as she set her phone down with a decisive click.Tanya blinked in surprise before furrowing her brows. “Victoria Byrd? Why do you suddenly want to meet with her?”Christine let out a scoff, her lips curling into a knowing smirk. “What do you think? To put my plan into motion, of course. I’m not about to let this gol

    The studio was buzzing with energy two days later. The collaboration project had reached its most critical stage—a high-profile photoshoot for a luxury fashion campaign. Every detail, from the lighting to the wardrobe, had been meticulously planned to create a series of iconic images.Eva arrived early, as always, her posture radiating quiet confidence. She greeted the team warmly, moving through the studio with a calm authority that put everyone at ease. Her reputation for professionalism preceded her, and she intended to keep it that way.“Miss Evangeline, your wardrobe is ready in Dressing Room A,” the stylist called out.Eva nodded and headed toward the room. She felt a flicker of apprehension as she passed Christine, who was chatting animatedly with the photographer. Christine’s laughter was just a little too loud, her smile a little too sharp. Eva knew the woman well enough by now to sense when she was plotting something.As Eva entered the dressing room, her suspicions were con

    “But…” Eva trailed off, the warmth in her expression vanishing in an instant. She took a deliberate step forward, closing the distance between them. Christine instinctively stiffened, unable to move as Eva reached out. With slow, calculated ease, Eva tucked a stray strand of Christine’s hair behind her ear, her fingers brushing against her cheek lightly.“If someone is truly pulling the strings behind this little stunt,” Eva murmured, her voice low enough for only Christine to hear, “I would expect them to put in more effort. It would be such a shame if this was all they could muster—it’s almost disappointing.”Christine swallowed hard, her hands curling into fists at her sides, but she couldn’t bring herself to move.“Christine,” Eva’s voice took on a commanding edge, soft yet firm. “Look at me.”Christine’s head lifted instantly, her gaze locking onto Eva’s before she could even think to resist. A slow, knowing smile spread across Eva’s lips.“Don’t you agree with me?” she asked lig

    The next morning, Eva’s phone buzzed incessantly, pulling her from her thoughts as she reviewed her schedule for the week. She glanced at the screen, her brow furrowing at the dozens of notifications from her social media accounts. Messages poured in—some supportive, others scathing.Confused, she clicked on one of the links shared by Trix. It opened to a viral video, its caption glaring in bold letters: “Evangeline Carter Exposed: The Real Diva of the Industry is back!”Her breath caught as she watched the video. It depicted her at yesterday’s photoshoot, supposedly berating a makeup artist. In the clip, Eva’s voice was sharp, her tone laced with irritation as she gestured toward the stylist’s equipment. The video cut abruptly, leaving viewers to draw their own damning conclusions.Eva’s fingers tightened around her phone. She didn’t recall any such incident—because it hadn’t happened. Someone had manipulated the footage.“Christine,” she muttered, her voice low with restrained fury.

    The sun filtered through the tall windows of the lavish studio, casting a golden glow on the marble floors. Eva adjusted the strap of her gown, her every movement embodying grace and confidence. Today was the first photoshoot for the collaboration project. However, it wasn’t the prestige of the project or the significance of the moment that lingered in Eva’s mind; it was the presence of Christine.Christine stood nearby, her face a mask of saccharine sweetness as she chatted with the director. Her voice, dripping with feigned enthusiasm, carried across the room. To everyone else, she appeared friendly and cooperative, the perfect team player. Eva knew better. Behind Christine's polished smile was a mind working overtime, strategizing ways to undermine her.“Eva, you’re up,” the photographer called, breaking through her thoughts.Eva turned, her poise unwavering, and stepped forward. She exuded a quiet confidence, her years of experience as a model shining through with each graceful s

    Eva had just finished reviewing some documents that Gwen sent, when her phone buzzed beside her. She picked it up absentmindedly, expecting it to be a work message, but her brows lifted in surprise when she saw Lucien’s name flashing across the screen. Lucien? Calling her? That was rare. Though they kept in touch through messages, Eva knew that Lucien wasn’t someone who liked making calls, especially not at this hour. Curious, she answered. "Lucien? Is everything okay?" On the other end of the line, Lucien’s voice was calm but carried an unusual seriousness. "Hey, Big sis. Yeah, everything’s fine. Just wanted to check in on you." Eva leaned back in her chair, amused. "Check in on me?" she repeated with a teasing lilt. "That’s new. Should I be flattered?" Lucien huffed. "Tch. Don’t make this weird." Eva laughed. "Alright, alright. So what’s up?" There was a slight pause before Lucien spoke again. "I heard you signed a contract with Christine." Eva’s amusement faded slightly.
