...

After the night wind, it began to drizzle.

After returning to Mark’s apartment, Christine couldn't contain her anger and smashed everything that could be smashed into smithereens. Especially when she thought about the fact that Eva had accepted the contract, her heart was filled with unwillingness.

Before Mark arrived, Christine had already had the maid clear up the trash and mess she had made while she stayed cooped up in her room. As soon as Mark came back home, he asked the head maid for Christine when she didn't come down to welcome him like she usually did.

“Master, the Madam has not stepped out of her room ever since she came back home. She didn't even have lunch as well." The head maid informed Mark who frowned upon hearing her.

“You can go back to your work. I will check on her personally." Mark waved at the head maid, who bowed her head before taking her leave.

Immediately he pushed open the door, Mark frowned by the scene in front of him. When he saw Christine sit

    “You're right, even if she accepts a deal, what can she achieve? But still, I still can't accept this." Mark lifted her head with tears in her eyes, "She has dominated you for so many years, I will not let her off easily." He told her. " What are you going to do?” Christine asked, a bit curious to know what Mark was planning. " Just leave it to me. I will have to speak personally to President Adolf myself tomorrow.” He told her, not wanting her to worry about anything else. " Mark.” Christine suddenly called him. " Yes?” " Promise me that no matter what you won't leave me. I have a feeling that you might suddenly have feelings for my sister again seeing how she……” " What are you talking about, Christine?! Who gave you such an impression that I would have feelings for that wench?! I never had feelings for her when we were together so don't think about stupid things like that. I thought we already closed that chapter when I announced our engagement." Mark didn't let Christine fin

    “Is that all?" Eva asked and sat up properly on the couch. “Yes." Kai simply nodded. “You've got to be kidding me Kaison Breaker! This was what you wanted to tell me and you couldn't tell me over the phone when you called me!" Eva couldn't help but shout at him in disbelief. “It's something important though." Kai casually replied. "Geez, why are you asking me things like this in the first place? Just pick a date since you're my boss and Chairman of the company.” She told him. "Good, I will tell Gwen to be prepared and you as well. We will be signing the contract next tomorrow with Bling corporation. Also Gwen has been working on your new schedule since you've accepted the deal, so prepare yourself to start working from now on.” Kai informed Eva. "I never knew a day would come when I would find the overly serious Kai cool like this." Eva said with a joking smile on her face. “Don't tease me Evangeline." He focused back on his work. "I won't anymore-" Eva was suddenly inter

    Knowing fully well that Eva can do what she said, Matthew calmed down a bit. Yesterday, after Laura received a call from Christine, who told her mother everything that happened. Laura urged him endlessly to contact Eva and tell her to let go of the deal but he knew it was useless since Eva wouldn't agree. So he decided to call her and speak with her about the marriage idea Laura had brought up a few days ago. “Fine, tell me when you will come home? I have something I want to discuss with you.” Matthew asked, “Does this thing you want to discuss with me can’t be disturbed on the phone? If I remember correctly, none of our phone conversations had anything to do with us seeing each other.” Eva asked, finding why he wants to suddenly see her very weird. “We have to discuss it personally and it’s a face to face conversation?” Matthew replied, raising his voice a bit. “Is that so? Then I need you to tell me the importance of this discussion before I tell you when I will come?” She inqui

    ********** Eva personally drove herself to her destination which was none other than the Carter Corporation the next day. By the time she got there, she didn’t bother parking in the garage and pulled over in an empty space in the outdoor parking lot. She stepped out of the car fully dressed in a sleeveless , pleated midi- length navy blue gown with a brown long coat draped over her shoulder. Eva glanced at the building, which was none other than the Carter Corporation. There was a dull expression on her face , obviously not liking the idea that she was back here again. Just like the Johnson Corporation, she never had a good and memorable time when she used to secretly work for her father as well. “We are already here, Evangeline. There's no going back.” She mumbled to herself. Eva took a deep breath and walked to the entrance of the building. Just as she was entering the building, she unexpectedly bumped into someone by the entrance. “I’m sorry, I wasn’t looking at where I was

    "My brother might be angry at you and me if he found out that I was the one that kept from meeting him. Don't worry, I will be staying longer in the city than I normally do, so I can wait till you can squeeze out time for us, my dear.” Brian gently said, not wanting to get into an argument with his older brother if he finds out. “Alright, I'll definitely find time in my schedule then." Eva didn't bother to push it further and agreed with him since he said he would stay in Miami longer than he usually does before. After insisting to walk Brian to his car, Eva finally made her way back to the building. The moment the receptionist in the lobby saw Eva, she quickly stood up and bowed her head at her since she knew who Eva was. She nodded her head to acknowledge the receptionist's greeting as she walked into the elevator. By the time she stepped out of the elevator when she got to the floor of her father's office she saw his secretary sitting behind his desk. “Good afternoon, Han. I

    “You kept me waiting to chat with Brian? I knew this would happen when he kept asking for you." Matthew remarked, knowing that Brian was the person Eva was talking about. Somehow, he didn't like the fact that Eva was very much close to his younger brother than all his other siblings. “Trust me, he is one of the few people that is really worth my time.” She coldly replied. “But if you called me here to scold or talk about something irrelevant, it's not too late for me to take my leave now.” Eva added, just as she was about to stand up from her seat. "Sit down. I have something else to say.” Mathew waved at her. “Good, so tell me what was the important thing you asked to see me for?" Eva asked after she sat down back. “It's something that would benefit you greatly." Matthew told her but Eva wasn't convinced. Instead she had a scowl on her face when she heard him. “I think my coming here was a mistake. Whenever you say something that benefits me is not a good thing. If I remember co

    “Really? When I was becoming a model in the first place, you were never there as my support. I have to face the harsh and cruel world all alone without my so-called family. So if Christine wants to get half of the fame and popularity that I possess, tell her to stop running back to daddy and complaining every time things don't go her way because if it's not me she would handle it herself." She coldly replied back to him. "Don't drag your sister into your mess, Evangeline. Christine asked for my permission when she wanted to become a model unlike you so I have to give her my full support.” Matthew defended himself. "I don't expect you to remember when I asked for your permission. But if that is the case then I see no reason why I should tell you my decision to return since I haven't asked the first time as well. Besides, we have never sat down together as a father and daughter to discuss what my personal decision was, it was always what you wanted. That one-sided decision you make, c

    "Yup, you always remind me that I caused what happened at the wedding. Thank you for reminding me once again. Also stop using my disappearance as an excuse because if I didn't disappear you wouldn't check up on me in any way.” Eva coldly retorted back. “You……. Anyways, as I was saying before. You can't remain single like this and cause trouble around. You've had enough time to heal from what happened to you so move on. And that is where we can discuss matters about the dates you had.”Matthew said, choosing to ignore Eva and go straight to the point. “What date?" She asked, with a clueless brow raised up. “Do not play games with me, Evangeline! You know exactly what I'm talking about.” Matthew glared at her. “I don't. If you are not ready to tell me then we have no discussion." She stubbornly told him while crossing her arm in front of her chest. ‘If only weren't useful for me.’ Matthew thought in his mind as he looked at Eva. “I'm talking about your dates you had recently.” He f

    “I... I’m starting to think Eva might be trying to sabotage me. You know, with the awards coming up, and her growing popularity... I just have this feeling she’s trying to push me out of the competition,” Christine said, her voice trembling slightly as if she was on the verge of breaking down. She knew Mark would respond to weakness, to vulnerability, just as he always had.Mark’s voice was low, filled with annoyance. “What do you mean, sabotage you? She’s already got the public on her side. What else does she want?”“I don’t know, Mark. But I can’t shake the feeling that she’s behind some of the things happening to me lately,” Christine continued, carefully planting the seed of doubt. “She’s been getting more endorsements, more media attention... She’s always one step ahead, and I feel like she’s using me to boost her own career. Maybe she’s trying to push me out of the spotlight, making sure I don’t have a chance to win.”Mark was silent for a moment, processing the information. Chr

    Eva didn’t respond immediately. She could feel the seriousness in Everett’s words, and for a brief moment, the playful rivalry between them was pushed aside.Everett’s eyes softened slightly as she looked at Eva, a rare glimpse of concern flickering in her gaze. “What are you going to do about her? She’s the one who caused my accident but had that person lie he was a fan, right? Also with the recent things happening, I can tell she’s been pulling strings, trying to break you down.”Eva's expression hardened, her grip tightening on her wine glass. “I’m not sure yet. But Christine’s time is running out.” She gave a slight, bitter laugh. “I won’t let her destroy me.”Everett studied Eva for a moment, her face unreadable. “Be careful, Eva,” she said quietly, her tone more serious than Eva had ever heard. “Christine’s dangerous. And she’s got a way of making everyone believe her sweet little act.”Eva took a deep breath, looking away briefly as she processed Everett’s words. The concern wa

    The day of the event arrived, and Christine was glowing with victory. Dressed in an elegant gown, she enjoyed the attention as she mingled with industry elites, knowing she was now the headlining speaker.With Eva out of the picture, this was her moment.Then the doors opened.Gasps rippled through the crowd as Eva walked in, effortlessly poised, wearing a breathtaking designer dress. The cameras instantly shifted toward her, flashing in rapid succession.Christine’s smile faltered. “What is she doing here?”Before she could react, the event host stepped onto the stage, microphone in hand.“Ladies and gentlemen, we have a special surprise. While there were some scheduling changes, we’re honored to have Eva here tonight.”Christine stiffened. “What? That’s impossible!”Eva merely smiled, making her way toward the front.Kai had pulled the right strings behind the scenes. Even if she wasn’t an official speaker anymore, she was still one of the biggest names in the room—and the audience

    Christine was livid. Every attempt to ruin Eva had backfired, and now, the industry was beginning to suspect foul play.Her carefully crafted innocent image was slipping, and she refused to let that happen.Gripping her phone tightly, she dialed Tanya, her voice sharp the moment the call connected."Tanya, listen carefully. I don’t care what it takes—pull every string, bribe whoever you need to, but make sure Eva does not attend the upcoming fashion event. I want her out, completely.”Tanya hesitated. “Christine, are you sure about this? Maybe you should—”“Don’t question me!” Christine snapped, her frustration boiling over. “Do you think I have the luxury of waiting? Eva is already taking the spotlight. If this continues, I won’t even be considered for the Top Ten Models Award!”Tanya sighed. “Fine. I’ll see what I can do. But Christine, be careful. You’re playing a dangerous game. If this backfires, it could cost you everything.”Christine scoffed. “Please. Eva won’t be able to prov

    Christine sat alone in the dimly lit hotel, her fingers lightly tapping against the side of her untouched wine glass. The usually confident and composed woman looked lost in thought, her expression unreadable as she stared at the city skyline beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows.Everything she had planned against Eva had backfired spectacularly. Instead of destroying Eva’s reputation, she had only fueled the public’s admiration for her. The industry was turning against Christine, and the narrative was slipping out of her control.A soft click of heels echoed through the room, breaking Christine from her thoughts.“Christine?”She turned her head slightly, finding Tanya standing near the entrance, a curious look on her face.Tanya was one of the few people Christine trusted—or rather, tolerated—because she was useful. Smart, cunning, and always willing to play dirty, Tanya had been by Christine’s side long enough to know exactly how far she was willing to go to get what she wanted.“Wh

    A few days after Mark successfully cleared his name from the Harper Luxuries scandal, Christine sat alone in her dressing room, her perfectly manicured fingers tapping impatiently against the vanity table.She had tried everything—sabotage, whispers in the right ears, carefully placed rumors—yet Eva always came out unscathed. Every plan Christine devised had crumbled before her eyes, and it was beginning to drive her insane.If indirect tactics didn’t work, she had to change her approach. This time, she wouldn’t hide behind shadows. She wouldn’t need to.Instead, she would manipulate the situation so well that Eva would ruin herself.All she needed was the perfect stage.---An exclusive fashion gala was set to take place, attended by top designers, influencers, and media elites. Both Eva and Christine had been invited as brand ambassadors for their respective labels.Christine smirked to herself. This was it. The perfect opportunity.She had carefully arranged for the media’s attenti

    The dim candlelight cast a golden glow over the elegantly set dining table. A soft melody played in the background, filling the room with warmth. Christine had spent hours preparing this—his favorite dishes, the finest wine. Tonight had to be perfect.She glanced at the clock anxiously. Mark would be home soon. And she had to fix this.The front door finally opened, and Mark stepped inside. His face was tired, his eyes dark with frustration. He didn’t even glance at the romantic dinner she had prepared. Instead, he sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair.“Christine, what is this?” His voice was cold.Christine swallowed and stepped toward him. “A dinner. For us.”Mark scoffed, shaking his head. “A dinner? Christine, do you have any idea what I’ve been dealing with? My father’s furious. Investors are backing out after the Harper Luxuries. I've lost of funds.” His voice grew sharper, filled with exhaustion. “And do you know what people are whispering? That my own fiancée might

    The silence between them was thick with unspoken thoughts, but Damien wasn’t one to leave things unresolved. He turned slightly, his piercing gaze fixed on her.“Why didn’t you ask for my help?” His voice was calm but held an edge of something deeper—something close to frustration.Eva, who had been absentmindedly tracing the rim of her wine glass, glanced at him. A small smirk curled her lips, but it didn’t quite reach her eyes.“Because it was something I could handle,” she said simply. “Like always.”Damien’s expression remained unreadable, but his fingers curled slightly against his knee. “And if you couldn’t?”Eva shrugged. “Then I would have asked. But it wasn’t time for that yet.”That answer didn’t satisfy him. He exhaled slowly, rubbing his temple. “Eva—”“I know what you’re going to say,” she interrupted, meeting his gaze head-on. “You think I should have let you take care of it. But Damien, I don’t always need you to fight my battles. Sometimes, I want to win them on my own

    Eva sat on the couch, feeling bored. The scandal had caused too much noise, and going home—where the paparazzi were undoubtedly lurking—was out of the question.With a sigh, Eva reached for her phone and scrolled through her contacts. Her finger hovered over Damien for a moment before she pressed the call button.The phone rang twice before his deep, smooth voice came through. “Eva.”Just her name. Nothing more. But there was something in the way he said it—low, controlled, yet sharp with attention—that made her exhale slowly.“Hey,” she murmured, leaning against the plush headboard.Silence. Then, “What’s wrong?”She almost smiled. He always saw through her.“I can’t go home,” she admitted, rubbing her temple. “The reporters are camped outside. And after today’s interview… they’ll only get worse.”Damien didn’t answer immediately. She could hear the faint rustling of papers, the click of a pen, before he finally spoke. “Where are you?”“Penthouse suite at the Grand Royale,” she repli
