Kai leaned back in his sleek office chair, sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Elite Entertainment’s Miami headquarters. His phone buzzed, and the name “Mr. Carl” flashed across the screen. Sighing, he answered the call, already bracing himself for what was to come.

“Kai speaking,” he said curtly.

“Good afternoon, Mr. Breaker,” Came Mr. Carl’s smooth and measured voice. “I appreciate you taking my call. I wanted to discuss a matter concerning Evangeline.”

Kai’s posture straightened slightly, his instincts immediately alert. “What about her?”

“Well,” Mr. Carl began, his tone calculated, “as you’re aware, Christine Carter has been facing some challenges following her recent scandal. While BTG industry has done its best to contain the fallout, her reputation has not fully recovered. This has raised concerns for us at HB Industry, given her collaboration contract with us.”

Kai’s eyes narrowed. He said nothing, letting Mr. Carl dig his own grave.

    Meanwhile Eva was busy panicking in her room. Every dress in her closet was stunning, crafted from the finest materials, yet none of them fit her properly! She hadn't gotten any sensible dress for the banquet when she went to the mall. There wasn’t enough time to reach out to a designer for a custom dress that fit her current size. She called the best tailors she knew, but all of them were fully booked. It wasn’t hard to figure out why—the socialites attending the banquet had monopolized their schedules.Eva considered skipping the event altogether but quickly dismissed the thought. Her grandpa Smith would never allow it. Letting out a frustrated groan, she collapsed onto her bed, staring at the ceiling in defeat.Suddenly her phone vibrated against the table, breaking the silence. She glanced at the screen. Trix.She picked up, her voice composed despite the knot forming in her stomach. “Trix. What’s the news?”Trix hesitated briefly before speaking, her voice laced with concern. “E

    Eva stepped out of Kai’s office and made her way to Gwen’s. The polished corridors of Elite Entertainment seemed quieter than usual, but Eva’s mind was far from the ambiance around her. When she entered Gwen’s office, she found both Gwen and Trix waiting for her. The moment Gwen spotted her, she stood with her arms crossed, her expression simmering with frustration.“This is outrageous,” Gwen started without preamble. “Trix just told me everything. What does Mr. Carl think he’s doing? Pairing you with Christine? Is he out of his mind?”Eva closed the door behind her and approached the seating area, her calm demeanor in stark contrast to Gwen’s fiery tone. Trix sat on the couch, her face a mix of concern and uncertainty.“It’s not ideal,” Trix admitted, “but Mr. Carl is thinking from a business perspective. He believes Eva’s influence can salvage Christine’s reputation. That’s the only reason he’s doing this.”Gwen let out a sharp laugh, incredulous. “And we’re supposed to let Eva clea

    After laying out the initial plan, Trix stood, her posture reflecting newfound determination. “I’ll get started on this immediately,” she said, adjusting her bag. She glanced at Eva and Gwen, her expression firm. “You can count on me to handle the media and HB Industry.”“Thanks, Trix,” Eva said with a faint smile. “Keep me updated on any developments. And remember, don’t let anyone at HB Industry catch on to what we’re doing.”“Got it.” Trix gave a small nod before walking out of the office.As the door clicked shut behind her, Gwen turned her attention to Eva, her brows furrowing in concern. She leaned back in her chair, arms crossed. “Alright, Trix has her part covered. Now tell me, Eva—what’s your next move?”Eva didn’t respond immediately. Instead, she stood from her seat and walked toward the large window that overlooked the bustling streets of Miami. The city seemed alive with opportunity and challenges, a reflection of the battle brewing within her.“I’m going to accept the co

    The Underground Base Damien took a slow sip of his wine, the dark crimson liquid swirling in the glass as his icy gaze remained fixed ahead. His expression was unreadable, a mask of cold detachment. Seated casually in a chair with one leg crossed over the other, he rested his forehead against a propped-up hand, exuding an air of indifference.With his relaxed posture and bored demeanor, one might mistake him for a king idly discussing mundane matters, rather than a man calmly observing the live torture of another.Rex, barely clinging to life, was a bloodied mess. His body was mutilated in ways that caused unimaginable pain but kept him alive. He no longer resembled a man—he was more akin to a broken puppet.Oliver, casually spun a knife between his fingers, his face eerily clean despite the blood soaking the rest of him. He had already extracted a wealth of information from Rex, but the man still hadn’t revealed one crucial detail."Boss, I think this guy’s done talking," Oliver sai

    "Damien, you're here!" A shrill voice rang out, it was high-pitched and overly enthusiastic like a girl. Eva’s sharp gaze darted toward the source of the voice, her expression immediately hardening as she turned to Damien. Oh, wonderful. So his friend was a woman. Just perfect."I’ve been waiting for you!" A stunning woman sauntered into the room, her hips swaying provocatively as she practically skipped toward Damien.Eva opened her mouth to speak, her sharp tongue ready to lash out, but Damien beat her to it. "Take off the wig and makeup. You're going to cause a misunderstanding," he growled, sidestepping the woman with a scowl. He tightened his grip on Eva's hand, silently signaling her to stay put despite the storm brewing in her eyes.The woman pouted dramatically, batting her long, mascara-heavy lashes at him. She had striking high cheekbones and a squarish, slightly rugged jawline, but her skillful use of makeup accentuated her features flawlessly."Damien, you’re no fun!" Her

    "I’ll take you up on that," Chris finally said, leading the pair into the backroom where rows of ready-made dresses hung in pristine condition.Eva's breath caught as she entered. The room was dazzling, the gowns on display nothing short of breathtaking. The cuts, the styles, the fabrics—every detail about these gowns was flawless, with each exuding its own unique allure. The first radiated the ethereal elegance of a fairy descending from the heavens to grace the mortal world. The second, a fiery red masterpiece, was a bold, passionate design that would embrace the wearer’s figure perfectly, accentuating every curve—even creating the illusion of them if necessary. But one in particular drew her in—a masterpiece that seemed almost ethereal.She moved toward it, her fingers twitching as though to touch the fabric, only for Chris to smack her hand lightly. "Sanitize first—"Before he could finish, a glacial chill filled the room. Chris froze under Damien’s lethal glare."You dare lay

    The affable smile on Alex wavered the slightest bit, the enthusiasm in his eyes dying out. It was replaced with subtle irritation.His eyes flickered to the arm wrapped securely around Eva's waist. With a swift motion, he reached out and tried to pull her toward him, but Damien's grip was far tighter than it appeared. Eva didn’t budge an inch.Eva glanced back and forth between them, her brows knitting in confusion. She could almost feel the crackle of tension in the air as the two men locked eyes in an unspoken battle of dominance. Despite standing on a public sidewalk, the atmosphere around them felt suffocating. The more they glared at each other, the more annoyed she became."Let go of her," Alex demanded, his tone seething with barely restrained animosity for the man holding Eva so possessively, as if she belonged to him.Without hesitation, Damien’s hand shot out, gripping the wrist that had dared to try and snatch Eva away. His grip applied just enough pressure to inflict pain

    "All right, I expect you to be home within thirty minutes,” George’s commanding voice left no room for debate. “Oh, and tell Damon it’s time to head home. I trust you won’t bring him over.”Damien, standing right beside her, smirked faintly at the older man’s sharp tone. It was easy to see where Eva inherited her attitude from. “Tell Grandfather not to worry,” Damien interjected smoothly. George didn’t miss his words. He scowled through the phone. “And tell Damon that if he calls me ‘grandfather’ one more time, I’ll have his tongue served on a silver platter—”“I’ll see you at home, Grandfather!” Eva quickly interrupted, hanging up before her grandfather could finish. She tucked her phone into her purse with a sigh, her shoulders sagging slightly from the tension.Damien’s gaze softened as he watched her. His dark eyes held a mix of amusement and something deeper as he studied her every move. The idea of her leaving so soon left a sour taste in his mouth. He hadn’t seen her all day,

    “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
