Originally, she had planned to rest after an exhausting photo shoot that lasted from late yesterday afternoon until midday today. Her insufferable manager and Gwen had pushed her to her limits! But her hopes of a well-deserved day of sleep were abruptly shattered when she learned about the heated argument between the budding couple whose fragile relationship couldn’t handle such a blow. If it weren’t for her good friend, one of the guards stationed outside the hospital room, she wouldn’t have known about the fight at all.

Nathalia had always stood by Eva, just as Eva had always supported her. But this time, she couldn’t take her side—especially after learning that Eva had recklessly snuck out of the room, risking her health in the process.

Eva blinked, noticing the dark circles under Nathalia’s eyes. "Have you been working nonstop again?"

Nathalia waved her off. "That’s not important. What’s important is you. Do you have any idea how worried I was when I heard about the stunt you pull

    “But he didn’t pick up...I called him twice," Eva muttered, her tone laced with disappointment.Nathalia raised a perfectly arched brow again, her sharp eyes honing in on her friend. "Twice? That’s it? Come on, the battle hasn’t even started yet, and you’re already waving the white flag?""It went straight to voicemail after the first ring," Eva explained, her voice soft and despondent.“He didn’t pick up." Nathalia mumbled to herself. That didn’t sound like Damien.Nathalia tapped her chin thoughtfully before turning to look at Eva. "What time did you call him?""Around one in the morning," Eva admitted, glancing at her phone.At this, Nathalia’s concern deepened. One in the morning was exactly when her brother had returned home the previous night. She knew this because the head maid at Damien’s mansion here in California had texted her. Naturally, Nathalia had something she personally wanted to discuss with Damien and that was why she asked the head maid to inform her when Damien ar

    Eva frowned, her heart heavy with guilt."I’m not justifying his actions," Nathalia continued. "But you need to understand why he’s like this. And, to be fair, you’re not exactly easy to deal with either. Both of you guys have abnormally high egos that constantly clash with each other.”Eva’s lips twitched into a faint smile. "You don’t say."Nathalia laughed lightly but quickly grew serious again. "I'm dead serious, your stubbornness clashes with his, and it’s no surprise things escalated. But if you really care about him, you need to talk. No more shouting matches. Just...sit down and work it out like adults.""Do you understand what I’m saying?" Nathalia asked, her tone gentle but firm. "Damien doesn’t want to lose you, Eva. But the more you push him away, the harder it gets for him to figure out how to reach you and he gets really frustrated."Eva’s gaze turned inward as she absorbed Nathalia’s words."Let me ask you something," Nathalia said. "How do you feel about Damien? Be hon

    “Wait, didn’t I text you earlier and you say he was in his office?" Nathalia huffed, her hands resting on her hips."Yes, Boss was preparing for the meeting there earlier," Eric replied evenly, the faintest hint of weariness in his tone."Ugh, when is he coming back then? What is he doing right now? Is he busy?"Eric turned his head to glance at Damien, seated across the aisle of the luxurious private jet. His boss was furiously typing away on his laptop, his glasses perched at the bridge of his nose. Damien’s intense concentration made it clear: this was not the time to disturb him."Yes, he’s busy," Eric finally answered."Can’t he spare just a few minutes on the phone? I have urgent matters to discuss," Nathalia pressed, her voice rising with frustration."I’m afraid he’s not in the best condition to speak right now," Eric responded firmly. He hoped Nathalia, as his boss’s sister, would understand the gravity of the situation. Once Damien entered his work mode, interrupting him was

    "What is it? I’m busy," he growled, his tone clipped."When are you coming back from your trip? There’s someone who needs to see you—""I don’t have time to entertain your model friends," Damien interrupted, his tone icy. He knew how much Nathalia always wanted to use him to brag to her model friends whenever she got the chance to. And now that they were in the country where Nathalia has a lot of model friends he was expecting something like this.Nathalia paused with a small frown on her face. ‘Are my friends all really that bad?’ She thought before snapping out of her thought."No, it’s not about my friends! I mean it is about my friends…….she is not like my other friends….you know she is more like a sister than a friend. A sister from another mother and I lo—” "Get to the point," Damien snapped, his irritation mounting. He sent a quick message to his guards, instructing them to ensure Nathalia didn’t stir up any further trouble. It seems like it was time for her to really make a v

    "Well," Nathalia said, crossing her arms. "It seems you will have to wait until that useless brother of mine gets his head straight and visits you.."Eva sighed, leaning back against her pillows. "Four hours, huh?""Plenty of time for you to figure out exactly what you’re going to say," Nathalia said with a sly smile. However, it soon died down as she looked at Eva.“What?” Eva asked.Nathalia said nothing and tucked Eva’s hair behind her ear. “Nothing. I will find a way to ditch my parents and come because I still have a lot of pending work to do here.” She said, not wanting to say exactly what was in her mind.“I will be fine.” Eva flashed a smile at Nathalia, who nodded her head at her.Reluctantly, Nathalia left.After Nathalia’s departure, a nurse entered to change Eva’s bandages and IV bag. Shortly after, a female doctor arrived to check on her condition.“Your recovery is progressing well,” the doctor said. “Thank you. Um….can i go out for a stroll, doctor. My body feels so st

    ---Meanwhile, George had just wrapped up a meeting as the chairman of the company when he noticed the storm rolling in. He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, his expression darkening as thunder cracked in the distance.“Prepare the car immediately,” he instructed his assistant, Julian. Without hesitation, Julian made the call, ensuring the driver was ready.Minutes later, George arrived at the hospital. The bodyguards outside Eva’s room stepped aside without question, allowing him entry.When he opened the door, his heart sank.The room was dim, lit only by the faint glow of lightning outside. On the bed was a trembling pitiful figure huddled beneath the blanket.“Eva,” he called gently.She didn’t respond.Julian didn’t dare enter the room and remained by the door, with his phone in hand. The weather app confirmed the worst: the storm would last all night. He sighed. There wasn’t much his boss could do within the confines of the hospital.In the end, apart from the

    As they left the hospital, George’s gaze remained fixed on the pouring rain outside the car window. His normally unshakable expression revealed a rare hint of worry.“She’s fragile,” he said, almost to himself. “This environment does more harm than good.” He didn't want her to leave the hospital since she just woke up but it seems like it is not helping at all.Lately, he has been digging deeper into Eva's past and how she had been living her life when he had ignored her. Even though the information he got wasn't clear, he was able to find out that his granddaughter had developed some mental health issues but during the time she had disappeared, she was able to recover herself a bit. He just hoped the thunder combined with the irrational fear of the hospital wouldn't bring back any dangerous harm to her because he wasn't willing to take that risk.Julian glanced at him through the rearview mirror. “Sir, will the young miss be returning to the hospital for further treatment?”“Not unle

    Moments later, Damien’s phone buzzed with a message.“Don’t be mad at Eva anymore, Damien. Just return her calls. She needs you.” — Nathalia.His lips curled into a scowl. Nathalia’s meddling had gone too far this time, but he couldn’t deny her words hit a nerve.Eva’s trembling figure flashed in his mind, and for the first time in hours, he felt the stirrings of guilt.………When Eva arrived at the main mansion, the new staff were visibly startled by the sight of a grown woman trembling in fear of thunder. Old Butler Song, however, was unperturbed. Familiar with her childhood anxieties, she quickly took charge. Leading her to her room, she had the curtains drawn, the windows locked, and the lights turned on.She ordered warm milk with honey and instructed the staff to bring in a noise-canceling machine. Soft piano music played in the background to drown out the thunder’s rumble. Once Eva drank her milk, she fluffed her pillows and persuaded her to lie down.At last, Eva succumbed to sl

    "Ms. Lily, what seems to be the matter here?" the head of the security team, Mr. Billy asked, his sharp eyes scanning the crowd of dazzling socialites and the two strikingly beautiful women standing by the cashier.One exuded an angelic innocence, her golden glowing halo hovering above her head, while the other had a magnetic charm and a commanding aura that was impossible to ignore. Though dressed in casual, understated clothing, it was clear from her demeanor that she came from a background of privilege and influence."Thank goodness you're here, Mr. Billy!" Lily exclaimed dramatically, her tone laced with frustration. "This young lady here is causing an absolute scene! She’s insulting and disturbing one of our valued customers. Her behavior is disgraceful!" She put on a distressed expression, though her eyes still held their usual arrogance.Mr. Billy frowned, sensing there was more to the story. Still, before he could interject, Lily continued her tirade. "Can you believe the aud

    Christine didn’t spare Eva another glance as she made her way to the checkout counter, but Eva decided to linger just a bit longer, intrigued by the brewing drama. If her memory served her right, Christine had always been meticulous when it came to spending, often opting for practicality masked as elegance.The sales associate broke the silence. “Ma’am, your total is fifty million dollars. Will that be debit or credit?”Christine froze, her carefully crafted poise faltering for the briefest of moments. A flicker of unease passed through her eyes as she stared at the bill in her hand. The credit card tucked away in her wallet wouldn’t even cover a fraction of the total.If only she had known this little excursion would cost so much, she would have brought her other credit card. But Tanya’s stern advice echoed in her mind: minimize spending and public outings until the scandal blows over. If anyone caught wind of her shopping extravagantly in the midst of her controversy, it could spark

    ……..The days passed peacefully, with little to disrupt Eva’s recovery. Soon enough, she found herself healed enough to venture beyond the confines of Damien's mansion. Thanks to Damien, she has been focused on causing chaos but he had been the ones to take extra care of her injury and body. Her wounds had started to fade, and the scar-reducing ointment he had given her worked wonders. Now, she was as elegant as ever, with no visible marks left behind.The upcoming banquet was less than a week away, and Eva decided it was time to shop for the perfect dress. Her grandfather had specifically requested that she shop at Stardom Mall, not only to show respect to the Banks family, who managed it, but also to honor the family’s deep ties to the mall. Everyone there knew better than to disrespect Lawrence Smith’s favored granddaughter—a figure of power who held significant shares in the mall.Eva opted for a casual outfit of black leggings and a simple hoodie. She believed comfort was key for

    Eva leaned her elbow against the window, a sly smile forming on her lips. “Let’s just say certain people needed a reminder of where they stand.”“I knew it!” Nathalia burst into laughter, the carefree sound lifting Eva’s mood further. “I was telling one of the stylists yesterday, ‘Eva doesn’t let people get away with things. If she’s back, she’s back with a bang!’ And look at you, proving me right.”“I didn’t do anything without reason,” Eva replied, her voice calm but firm. “Christine and Mark needed to be handled. And Director Rick? Well, he made his bed.”“Oh, believe me, I’m not judging,” Nathalia said, her tone growing slightly wicked. “You know I love seeing Christine squirm. She’s got that fake, angelic act down, but I’ve always known she’s rotten to the core.”Eva smirked. “You’re not wrong. She’s good at pretending, though.”“Too bad for her that she’s not as good as you,” Nathalia teased, a playful lilt in her voice. “By the way, did you see the video of Mr. Carl’s press con

    Mr. Carl hesitated, clearly weighing his next words. “Given your... influence and recent actions, I wanted to request that you refrain from taking further steps that might escalate this situation. We’re still cleaning up the mess left by Director Rick, and another scandal would be... disastrous.”Eva crossed her arms, regarding him with a cold, calculating gaze. “Mr. Carl, I don’t cause chaos for the sake of it. Every move I make is deliberate and justified. If you’re asking me to sit quietly and tolerate disrespect, I’m afraid you’ve come to the wrong person.”“I’m not suggesting that,” Mr. Carl said quickly. “I’m only asking for your understanding. The company can’t afford another scandal right now.”Eva tilted her head slightly, her smile fading. “The person you should be worried about is Christine, not me. Both she and Mark have already shown that they won’t back down quietly. If I were you, I’d focus on keeping them in check.”Gwen cleared her throat, stepping in to soften the te

    The next morning, Eva stepped out of the sleek black car with Gwen by her side. Both women radiated confidence—Eva in her tailored black suit and Gwen in a navy blue dress that reflected her sharp managerial style. HB Industry’s towering headquarters loomed before them, gleaming in the sunlight as if trying to hide the chaos within its walls.“Ready?” Gwen asked, glancing at Eva as they walked toward the building’s entrance.Eva smirked, her heels clicking confidently against the marble floor as they entered the reception area. “I’ve been ready since the moment I stepped back into this industry.”It wasn’t long before they were escorted to Mr. Carl’s office. The CEO of HB Industry rose from his chair as they entered, forcing a professional smile as he extended his hand.“Miss Carter, Miss Langley,” he greeted them, his tone polite but guarded. “Please, have a seat.”Eva and Gwen took their seats, and Mr. Carl sat down, adjusting his tie nervously.“To what do I owe this visit?” Mr. Ca

    She paused at the door, her hand resting on the sleek silver handle. Instead of leaving, she turned back toward Kai with a mischievous glint in her eyes.“You know,” she began, folding her arms and leaning casually against the doorframe, “we’ve been talking about me and my plans all morning, but there’s something far more interesting we haven’t discussed.”Kai raised an eyebrow, already sensing trouble. “Oh? And what’s that?”“Your love life,” Eva replied with a grin, emphasizing the words like they were the juiciest gossip she’d ever uncovered.Kai groaned, leaning back in his chair. “Not this again, Eva. I don’t have time for love. Running a company is already a full-time job.”“Oh, please.” Eva waved a dismissive hand as she strolled back toward his desk. “That’s the oldest excuse in the book. You’re not fooling me.”Kai sighed, rubbing his temples. “And what, exactly, am I supposedly hiding from you this time?”Eva leaned on his desk, her smile growing sly. “Let’s just say I have

    ……..Eva stepped into the sleek, modern office of Elite Entertainment, her heels clicking against the polished floor. The massive windows behind Kai’s desk offered a stunning view of the city, but Eva’s attention was fixed on the man seated before her. Kai, the CEO of Elite Entertainment and her closest friend, leaned back in his chair, watching her with a mixture of curiosity and concern.“Eva,” Kai greeted with a warm smile as he gestured for her to sit. “To what do I owe the pleasure? Usually, I have to chase you down to talk.”Eva smirked, taking a seat across from him. “You’re exaggerating, Kai. I’m not that hard to find.”Kai raised an eyebrow. “Considering the chaos you’ve been stirring up lately, I’d say you’ve been keeping yourself quite busy.”Eva’s smile widened, but there was a glint of mischief in her eyes. “I suppose you could say that.”Kai leaned forward, resting his elbows on the desk. “So, tell me—what’s the plan now?

    There was a long silence on the line. When Matthew finally spoke, his tone was icy. “You’re making a mistake, Eva. This vendetta of yours will come back to bite you. Mark my words.”Eva’s voice was steady, but her words were sharp as a blade. “The only mistake I made was ever thinking you cared about me. Don’t call me again unless it’s to apologize—and we both know that won’t happen.”“You're a mistake in my life, Evangeline Carter!" Matthew snapped angrily which almost made Eva laugh out loud.“That’s your loss, you should have gotten rid of me when you had the chance, Father , I'm prepared to drag all you down if it means I have to shred a part of me again.
