**********

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

    "To who?" Eva seethed, her voice like icy death. "Lucas Sander. Your date." Matthew didn't waste his time and told her. ‘Asshole.’ A string of curses drifted through her head, none of which left her mouth. Eva glowered at her father with sheer hatred. She wished a hole would open up and swallow him whole. How could he have not consulted her when making such a horrible decision??? She opened her lips, but closed them. She needed a minute to breathe. Or else, she was going to curse him, his ancestors, and his entire livelihood. Once she had a slippery grasp of her sanity, she cleared her throat. "Did you publicly announce this yet?" Eva demanded, trying her hardest to keep her emotions in control. But all she wanted to do was chuck a glass of water at him. Matthew was impressed because he thought Eva was already starting to agree with him which he thought was a good thing. "I haven't announced this decision yet," Matthew stated. "But your husband's family has already agre

    “When will you stop all this annoying attitude of yours? Lucas is the supposed victim of your affair, Eva, for your relationship with him was announced first," Matthew said, raising his voice a bit. "Those pictures of your museum date—" "Might as well have been posted by you or Laura." Eva seethed, her heart thundering from the tension. “Laura did what she knew was best for you as your mother. And she is still doing what's best for you, that's why she brought up this idea." Matthew stated, sighing and rubbing his forehead. “Laura? Tsk……I knew you couldn't come up with all this bullshit all alone without being instigated by that Mistress. I'm warning you father, tell that woman you call her to stop meddling in my business.” “I told you she is not a mistress!" Matthew lost his cool and slammed his hand on the table in anger. “She is the woman that you were in an affair with when you were still married to my mother. She will remain a mistress to me no matter what.” Eva retorte

    “Okay. But why is your work schedule starting soon?" "I know but I was told that Bling’s New Product Launch is just around the corner." Eva explained to Damien. "Damien, give me a little more time. I will definitely climb to a position that will make you proud." She added with a determined smile on her face. "I've never doubted you," Damien said as he placed food on Eva's plate. Eva gave him a thank you smile before turning her attention back to her food. Just like that the two of them engaged in a little conversation which ended up enlightening her mood. ********** The contract signing ceremony with Bling corporation and HB Industry was to be held at 10am. The entire process was broadcast live and announced to the public. It could be considered Bling’s vote of support for Eva and Christine's battle. After four years, Eva had indeed forgotten what it felt like to attend a signing event. But, as soon as she put on ths white backless mermaid dress and wore the jewelry sp

    Afterwards, Eva boarded the car with Gwen's help after bidding Damien goodbye. Damien turned and glanced at the head security, who was standing a few meters away. “Get two.cars.of.your best men to follow my wife." He instructed the head security while glancing one more time at Eva’s car that was driving away. “Yes, boss." The head security nodded his head in understanding. “Make sure she doesn't notice your presence as well." Damien added before walking towards his own car as well. He knew Eva's background and was aware of the fact that she can easily detect if she's being followed by his men. The last thing he needed was another argument between him and Eva even though he knew she was still playing him. On the way, Gwen said as the chauffeur drove, "The signing time is 10am, we will arrive at around 9:50 am. Not too early, not too late, perfect." "Your arrangements have never been a problem," Eva replied as she lowered her head as she swiped through her phone. “Eva, did you h

    The sound of glass shattering echoed through the luxurious hotel suite as Christine hurled a vase across the room. Her chest heaved with rage, her nails digging into her palms as she glared at the headlines flashing on her phone screen. Her latest scheme to ruin Eva’s reputation had backfired, and instead of dragging her sister through the mud, she had only strengthened Eva’s position. Every carefully placed trap had been countered, every lie had been exposed. Christine had never felt so powerless. Sitting on the couch, Tanya crossed her legs and sighed, watching Christine throw another decorative piece to the floor. She had been working with Christine for years now, and while she had always known that Christine despised Eva, it was becoming clear that this wasn’t just about competition anymore. ‘It was an obsession’ she thought. Tanya remained silent as Christine raged, knowing full well that any attempt to calm her down would only make things worse. Instead, she waited for the

    — That evening, Eva arrived at the mansion, feeling a strange sense of relief as she stepped inside. After staying in a hotel for so long, returning here felt like coming home—not just because of the place but because of who was waiting for her. She slipped off her heels and sighed, stretching her sore muscles. Just as she was about to call out, a deep, familiar voice came from the living room. “Took you long enough.” She turned and found Damien leaning against the doorway, watching her with that quiet intensity that always made her heart skip a beat. His sleeves were rolled up, his tie loosened, and despite the exhaustion she knew he must have felt from his long day, there was a softness in his gaze reserved only for her. A slow smile spread across her lips. “Miss me?” she teased, walking toward him. Instead of answering, Damien reached out and gently pulled her into his arms. His embrace was warm, steady—like an anchor. Eva let out a soft breath as she melted into his hold, re

    —-- Meanwhile, at Cross Enterprise, Damien was already aware of the situation. Sitting in his office, he scanned the online articles, his expression darkening. Christine had dared to attack Eva through the media, hoping to cause irreparable damage. Big mistake. Damien didn’t tolerate anyone trying to harm what was his. Without hesitation, he placed the tablet down and looked at Eric. “Tell the PR team to shut it down,” he ordered. “And make sure every major outlet retracts the story and destroys whatever companies are involved in this scandal.” Eric frowned slightly when he heard his boss. Again he was trying to protect Eva all again. However, he couldn’t voice out his displeasure so he quietly nodded his head. “Yes, sir.” Within an hour, the suspicious articles started disappearing. Gossip blogs that had been flooded with scandalous headlines were suddenly quiet. Comments under posts were being flooded with contradictions. The narrative was crumbling before Christine’s eyes.

    For the past few days, Christine had kept a low profile, following Tanya’s advice to wait for the right opportunity. Her previous schemes had failed miserably—each attempt to sabotage Eva had only backfired, making Eva look even more poised and untouchable. But Christine wasn’t the type to accept defeat.If she couldn’t surpass Eva professionally, then she would tear her down personally.Her mother, Laura, had been the one to plant the idea in her mind. "If you can’t win on the battlefield they’ve chosen," Laura had told her, "then change the game. Make them play on your terms."And that was exactly what Christine intended to do. This time, she wouldn’t just aim for petty sabotage—she was going to destroy Eva’s reputation completely.…………Early in the morning, Eva’s phone buzzed non-stop.Gossip sites, entertainment blogs, and even major media outlets were exploding with headlines:"Supermodel Eva Caught in Scandalous Affair with HB Industry CEO!""Is Eva Using Her Influence to Secure

    Meanwhile, Eric, who had been silently watching the interaction, let out a small scoff. “So this is what I wasted my time for?” he muttered under his breath.Gwen immediately shot him a glare. “Excuse me?”Eric smirked slightly, shoving his hands into his pockets. “You barged in here like it was urgent, but all you’re doing is dragging her out for a photoshoot?”“Oh, I’m so sorry,” Gwen said mockingly. “I forgot you were Mr.Cross's bodyguard and not his secretary. If it bothers you so much, maybe you should have stayed outside instead of following me in.” she said, though she knew that he was Damien's secretary but still said that to irk him.Eric chuckled darkly.’This crazy human being.’ “Believe me, I wouldn’t be here if someone didn’t insist I help her get past the receptionist.”“I did not beg—” Gwen started before cutting herself off, clenching her fists. “You know what? Forget it. I don’t have time to argue with an overgrown ice cube.”Eva, who had been watching the entire exch

    Eva leaned back against the couch, patting her stomach in satisfaction. "I have to say, I really outdid myself picking that restaurant," she mused.Damien, who was already sitting behind his desk, raised a brow. “You outdid yourself? All you did was order the food. I don’t remember you being the one who actually cooked it.”Eva scoffed, sitting up straighter. “Excuse you, do you know how much effort it took to pick the best dishes from that menu?”Damien smirked. “Oh, I’m sure scrolling through a menu and pointing at things was exhausting.”Eva gasped, placing a hand over her chest dramatically. “Wow, Damien. I put all this effort into making sure my husband doesn’t starve, and this is the appreciation I get?”Damien let out a chuckle, the warmth in his gaze betraying his otherwise teasing expression. “Your husband could have easily ordered lunch himself, you know.”Eva narrowed her eyes. “Really? Because from the looks of it, you were buried under so many files that you probably woul

    Gwen strode into Cross Enterprise’s grand lobby, her heels clicking sharply against the polished marble floor. She just got back from where she had told Eva she was going and had tried calling Eva multiple times, but as expected, Eva was too busy flirting or whatever she was doing with Damien to answer her phone.Glancing at the time, Gwen muttered under her breath. “If she doesn’t come out now, Victoria’s going to have my head.”With no other choice, she let out an exasperated sigh, and approached the receptionist’s desk.“I’m here to see Mr. Cross,” she said, adjusting the strap of her handbag. “Let me through to the top floor.”The receptionist, a young woman with perfectly styled hair and an unbothered expression, simply smiled. “I’m sorry, miss, but you don’t have an appointment. I can’t let you in.”Gwen blinked, momentarily taken aback. “What?”The receptionist gave her a polite but firm look. “Without an appointment, I can’t let you through. Company policy.”Gwen narrowed her

    As Damien led her to the couch, Eva suddenly halted, making him turn with a questioning brow.“You know,” she mused, tilting her head with mock seriousness, “before you interrupted me, I was actually offering a very expensive consultation service.”Damien crossed his arms, amusement twinkling in his dark eyes. “Oh?”Eva nodded, tapping her chin as if in deep thought. “Yes, I used to charge companies millions for my insights. So technically… you owe me.”Damien let out a low chuckle, stepping closer. “Let me get this straight,” he said, his voice rich with teasing authority. “You walked into my office, sat in my chair, went through my documents without permission—and now you’re asking me to pay you?”Eva grinned. “That’s business, Mr. Cross. Nothing is free.”Damien smirked. “And what if I refuse to pay?”Eva pretended to think, then shrugged. “Then I guess I’ll take my brilliant mind elsewhere.”Damien’s eyes darkened slightly, but he played along. “That would be a shame.

    Minutes passed, and Eva quickly grew bored.She had been in Damien’s office many times, but she still found herself looking around. It was immaculate and organized, but it lacked anything personal. Nothing in this room screamed Damien—except for the towering stacks of documents and reports on his desk.Her eyes narrowed as she walked over, running her fingers lightly over the ridiculous amount of paperwork.“No wonder he barely has time to eat.” She muttered, shaking her head.The sight of his overwhelming workload triggered a familiar ache in her chest. She remembered her past—being buried in work, managing her father’s company alongside Mark. She had spent countless nights drowning in documents, starving herself to meet deadlines, and yet… no one had cared. Neither her father nor Mark had ever asked if she had eaten.Her fingers clenched slightly against the papers.She had left that life behind, yet here Damien was, doing the same thing to himself.Determined to help him, Eva sat i
