The scandal surrounding Harper Luxuries continued to escalate. Financial analysts tore apart the company’s records, exposing even deeper corruption than initially reported. Clients and investors withdrew their support, and the luxury brand’s reputation nosedived.

Eva remained a silent observer, never once stepping into the chaos. She didn’t need to. The mess Christine and Mark had walked into was unraveling all on its own.

Two.days later, Eva had had just finished another photoshoot and was busy resting in her dressing room when Gwen casually entered the room as she scrolled through her phone, letting out a low whistle. “Christine’s in full damage control mode, but it’s not working. Every brand connected to Harper Luxuries is distancing themselves. She’s lost all credibility.”

Trix smirked. “Mark isn’t doing any better. His name is being dragged through the mud for backing a sinking company. There are even rumors his family is furious at him for making such a reckless investment.”

    Christine paced in her luxurious bedroom, her perfectly manicured nails tapping against her phone screen as she scrolled through the latest headlines. Every article seemed to be about Eva—her growing success, her latest campaign, the public's admiration. Christine’s jaw clenched in frustration. She needed to shift the narrative. With a deep breath, she dialed Tanya’s number. It rang twice before Tanya’s voice came through, smooth and professional. "Christine, what is it? It’s late." Christine rolled her eyes. "Since when do you care about the time? Listen, I need you to set up a meeting with a journalist—someone discreet but influential. Someone who can shape a story the way I want it." Tanya hesitated. "What kind of story are we talking about?" Christine smirked, settling onto her chaise lounge. "Something… damning. Something that makes Eva look less like the perfect little star everyone thinks she is. We don’t need lies—just a little exaggeration, a shift in perspective. Got i

    Eva lounged in the living room of her hotel suite, one leg crossed over the other, casually munching on chips as she scrolled through the latest article on her phone. The bold headline blared across the screen:"The Truth About Eva: Manipulation, Power Plays, and Industry Secrets."A slow, amused smile curved on her lips as she read through the carefully crafted insinuations. Lies twisted with half-truths, designed to cast doubt on her success. Predictable.She let out a soft chuckle, shaking her head. Did they really think this would break her? Just as she was about to scroll further, the door burst open.“What the hell is this?!” Trix’s voice filled the room as she stormed in, holding up her phone.Gwen followed closely behind, her expression a mix of concern and frustration. “Eva, this isn’t funny! Someone is trying to ruin you.”Eva looked up lazily, still smiling. “I know.”Trix gaped at her. “You know?! And you’re just sitting here smiling? Eva, this article is everywhere—peopl

    ---A few days later, Eva made a rare yet calculated appearance on a live talk show—The Spotlight with Emily Lopez, one of the most-watched entertainment programs in the country. Coincidentally, it was also a show that frequently collaborated with Rachel Grant, the journalist behind the scandalous article.As the cameras rolled, the studio audience buzzed with anticipation. They were expecting either a fierce defense or a dramatic meltdown. What they got instead was something entirely different.Emily Lopez, the charismatic host, smiled warmly as Eva took her seat. “Eva, it’s a pleasure to have you here.”Eva crossed her legs gracefully, offering a poised smile. “Thank you for having me.”Emily wasted no time. “Let’s address the elephant in the room. There’s been a lot of talk about you recently, especially after that article. I have to ask—what’s your response to the claims about your alleged manipulations in the industry?”Eva’s expression remained calm, almost amused. She leaned ba

    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

    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

    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

    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.

    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

    “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
