Startled, Kendall dropped the phone. She fumbled while trying to reject the call, but accidentally answered it.Instantly, Gilbert's voice was heard on the other end. "Kendall, where are you? Why haven't you replied to my messages all afternoon?"Kendall hesitated and met Faye's piercing gaze. She suppressed her panic and asked, "What's the matter?""I'm at the hotel across from your company. Come over when you finish work. I have something to discuss with you."Kendall took a deep breath. "Can't we talk about it now? I have to work late today."Gilbert checked the time. "Why? It's not that important. I just miss you.""Let me finish with work first," Kendall said, her determination wavering once again upon hearing his words."Alright, focus on your work. Call me when you're done, I'll be waiting in the room."After ending the call, Kendall held onto her phone tightly, feeling torn inside.Since the moment she answered the phone, Faye had been operating something on her own
Faye sent a message on her phone then told Lucy to present herself before Frank. Frank, who was having fun with a few young women, saw Lucy walking past him without sparing a glance in his direction. She held her phone and beamed, saying something along the lines of "See you later".The adoring expression on her face caused his brows to furrow. Without hesitation, he pushed away the woman next to him and hurried after Lucy. Lately, regardless of what he said or did, Lucy refused to reconcile with him. Even when his parents intervened to defend him, Lucy's family persisted in shielding her without displaying any respect toward Frank or his parents.Frank was furious. Lucy hadn't even married him, yet she was already showing disrespect, leaving him to imagine just how bad a wife she would be. He felt glad that he didn't marry her, but on the other hand, he felt upset that he was dumped. From his point of view, he had other women and Lucy had another man, so they were even.
Faye initially planned to get these two equally despicable men together and film a compromising video of them. She believed that they would behave themselves after that. However, she didn't anticipate Frank to assault Nick under the influence of the drug. "These two are absolutely crazy!"Lucy's eyes widened in disbelief at the footage. Faye quickly turned the television off with a resigned expression, proceeded to save the previous footage then remotely destroyed the surveillance equipment. After that, she left the hotel with Lucy.As they left, Lucy couldn't contain her excitement. "Oh my gosh, today's performance was absolutely insane! Just the thought of those two going at it gets my heart racing. Haha! I thought humiliating him was harsh enough, but darling, you've outdone yourself. Haha, I guess same-sex relationships are true love and heterosexual ones are just accidents."Just as Lucy finished her sentence, the elevator arrived. The doors happened to open with Cedric a
"Cedric, be … more gentle …" Her face was flushed. Her hands were pinned behind her and at the moment, she relied solely on Cedric to support her weight. "Mom is in the room next door …" The sweat on her forehead dripped onto the table. Her eyes were dazed, but she remained alert. "Don't wake her."Cedric took in her porcelain-like skin, disheveled hair, and swollen red lips. Her appearance caused him to lose control of the beast within him and all he wanted was to lose himself in her. Some time later, he propped her up and lifted her chin. His forehead was drenched in sweat and the look in his eyes was both seductive and wild. "Why don't you lead, then?" he said and held her waist with his hands, pulling the chair nearby to sit down with Faye on top of him. She gasped and wrapped her arms around his neck with an alluring smile. "Getting tired already, Mr. Shaw?" Her hands trailed down and she raised an eyebrow. "That won't do …"He smiled when he saw the smirk playing on
Faye shot him a pointed look, her eyes boring into him. He maintained his innocent expression and presented the glass of honey water in his hands to her. "You were up all night. Drink this to soothe your throat. If this dress isn't appropriate, you can just change into a different one. There are a few new dresses you designed in the closet. Why don't you try those on instead?"Faye opened the closet and realized that Cedric purchased the gowns she designed a few months ago. Her gowns were usually sold out almost as soon as they were released, so she couldn't help but wonder where he found them. Cedric rubbed his nose. "They're from Lincoln …"Lincoln was an avid fan of Faye's, always purchasing her designs for his collection whenever she released a new one. Despite never having an official girlfriend, it didn't diminish his love for these garments.Cedric only found out about it by accident when he went to Lincoln's house to visit. When he learned that they were designed b
Five minutes later, the designer and model for the second outfit arrived at Faye's side. Faye glanced at the tall and unfamiliar model. She was exceptionally beautiful and her figure perfectly complemented the necklace, so it was a shame."Jay, did you design this necklace?" Faye handed the necklace to the designer, who happened to be Jay. Jay nodded. "Yes, Ms. Fischer, but … Why does it look different …" He examined the necklace closely and paled. "This is a fake, Ms. Fischer. My design used different materials ..."Faye gave Jay an approving look. She hadn't informed them in advance that there was an issue with the necklace, yet Jay immediately identified it as a fake, which indicated that he was rather talented. "When did you last come here to check?" Faye asked. "I was here yesterday afternoon, and I can confirm that the real necklace was still here at that time," Jay said grimly.Faye nodded then turned to address the model. "The product launch is about to start, Ms.
The fashion show had begun. Dozens of models took turns to walk the stage, showcasing not only their individual charm but, more importantly, Light Moon Designs' new products in their most beautiful state. Each of the new products was a masterpiece, enough to make heads turn even when worn by ordinary people, let alone models with outstanding figures and stunning looks. Light Moon Designs' new product launches were always a visual feast, creating waves globally each quarter.This launch was no exception, and due to the previous incident with Allure Designs, Light Moon Designs gained even more attention from the public. This quarter's new product launch was bound to be more explosive, with many people eagerly anticipating it. Faye met Iris at the backstage entrance. Iris smiled and nodded to Faye, "Ms. Fischer."Faye nodded back, offered a few words of encouragement, and returned to her seat in the front row. Surprisingly, Cedric was seated beside her in a seat that origina
Lincoln was furious that his performance was rated as "not bad". On top of that, Lucy even left a hundred dollars with the note. It was basically an insult to him!He was indeed drunk and slightly out of control the night before, but he was not intoxicated to the point that he would make an advance at Lucy. After lying down, all he wanted was to go to sleep. Lucy was the one who leaned closer to take off his clothes and touched him. She even tapped him on the face, saying, "You were all wild that night, right? Why are you lying down now?"She then proceeded to pinch his cheeks and grope his muscles, her actions getting out of hand. As a man, Lincoln couldn't possibly resist it, so he responded with the same enthusiasm. Lucy was instantly satisfied, yet she woke up the next day and decided to forget all about it. She brushed all his effort off with just a note and a hundred dollars. The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. He looked up at Georgina, who was
