Bella looked up and gasped in surprise, "Whitney?"

"Yes, that's me," Whitney replied with a grin.

"Oh my god," Bella muttered as she stood up and hugged her.

Whitney smiled, returning the hug tightly.

"I didn’t think I was going to see you so soon after the last project," Bella said, pulling back slightly but still holding her arm.

"Yeah, I’m only here for today, though. I dropped by to see Elliot," Whitney responded as she stepped back.

"Oh, wow! Then we better catch up," Bella said excitedly, turning toward Ava. "Whitney, meet Ava, my best friend. Ava, this is Whitney, the best PR manager in the industry."

Whitney chuckled, waving Bella off,"Bella does a bit of exaggeration sometimes. Nice to meet you," she said, extending her hand toward Ava with a friendly smile.

Ava stood up and smiled, taking Whitney’s hand. "Tell me about it. Nice to meet you too," she replied warmly.

"Are you guys ganging up on me?" Bella teased with a playful grin.

"Of course not," Whitney and Ava responded i

I believe with adequate preparation, this year's competition is going to be a spectacular event, and also, as usual, we have someone from the competing school in LA here with us for summer class this year,” Mrs. Chucks continued with a big smile on her face.“Isn’t that cheating?” One of the senior kids shouted from the crowd.“No, it’s not Evans,” Mrs. Chucks said, squinting her eyes and raising her brow in the direction the boys voice had come from in the hall.All the kids had been summoned to the school hall for an address before lesson commenced.The Imperial College had a reputation to protect, and Mrs. Chucks had to make sure every

    Nathan stared at Kim, mentally wishing he would not say anything that would hinder him from being able to get to Tyler after he got the report.“...to announce that the succession plan has been put on hold,” Kim finished.There was a shocked look on Peter’s face, while Clara, who looked utterly confused for a minute, smiled broadly as she realized this gave her more time.“Father? What is this about?” Peter asked.Nathan stood there, his face neutral and unreadable as he sighed deeply. This gave him more time to uncover all of Tyler’s atrocities and get him disqualified by his grandfather.“I’ll see you around Grandpa,” Nathan said.Timothy nodded and replied, “You all can leave now; that is what I wanted to announce, and I involved Kim so you all can believe it since he is a lawyer after all.”“Thank you, grandpa,” Tyler said with a smile, feeling more confident that he had a chance now.“I didn't do it for anyone; okay, everyone out now,” Timothy said again.Nathan walked out of the

    Peter Crawford waited for the others to leave, pacing, patiently waiting for Kim to leave them too.“Do you have something you wish to say?” Timothy asked“Yes, I do. Can you please leave us, Mr. Kim?” Peter asked.“Definitely, I’ll be in my office down the hall,” Kim replied, closing his suitcase and walking out of the room.“Let’s hear it,” Timothy said with a careless wave of his hand."Father, you need to reconsider your decision,” Peter said, adding, “You don’t have the strength to continue running everything, father. Why did you change your mind?”“Nothing; I just want to keep things as they are for now,” Timothy responded.“You were supposed to return to work for just a period of time. Putting the succession on hold simply means you want to continue working, or does this have to do with what Tyler did?” Peter asked.“Are you concerned about me or your sons?” Timothy asked with raised brows"Father, don’t say that; you know I’m concerned about you, and we both know since the acc

    "What happened?" Amber asked, looking at Jenna."I did not hit her eye," Jenna insisted defensively."Okay, everyone sit down, and you just tell me what happened," Amber said, placing a hand on her waist.The other kids sat down quietly, waiting for Amber to settle Nola and Jenna."I spread my hands sideways and hit her arm," Jenna explained."Okay, so why are you holding your cheeks, Nola?" Amber asked, looking at Nola with raised brows."She hit me on my face!" Nola insisted, almost screaming."She said, Eye, you're holding your cheeks, and I don't even know what to believe," Amber muttered under her breath."I want to speak to my dad," Nola said."Now let's not start calling Daddy; we can just say sorry, okay. I'm sure Jenna is sorry, aren't you Jenna?"

    Ava looked at Elliot, then at Bella, who shook her head at her, trying to dissuade her from speaking.Ava could feel the eyes of everyone in the room on her, but it didn't get to her."Can we get on with this meeting?" Daphne's sharp voice pierced through the silence; her eyes narrowed in disdain.She sat in her chair like a queen, her cold expression daring anyone to challenge her."We don't have all day Ava," Elliot said, his voice calm but encouraging, giving her a small, supportive smile.Before Ava could respond, Bella quickly interjected, "Okay, why don't I step in and—""I said," Ava interrupted, standing up as she added, "What is the unique selling point?" Her eyes locked on Daphne as she continued, "All that is listed is unique, sure, but nothing screams at me or grabs my attention."Daphne's eyebrows shot up, her lips curling into a sneer as she said, "And what exactly do you know about fashion to say all that?" her voice filled with mockery, adding, "We aren't making clothe

    The silence at the table was thick with tension as Clara and Wyatt glared at Tyler."What does Avery have to do with anything?" Tyler asked, his voice rising, eyebrows knitted together in frustration.Wyatt leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms. "The fact that you even know her is the problem.""How could you be so reckless?" Clara snapped, her eyes narrowing, "You got something this important handled by someone inside the organization? Without thinking?""I didn't think—" Tyler began, his tone defensive."Clearly, you didn’t!" Clara cut him off, her voice sharp and laced with anger. "You put us all at risk.""Mom! I’m not a child. I can clean up my own mess. Avery isn’t some loose end. She’s loyal to me!" Tyler shot back."Loyal? There’s no loyalty in this war, Tyler. How long do you think that loyalty will last if someone offers her something better? More money, perhaps?" Clara asked, scoffing.Tyler glared at his mother, replying, "You don’t know her like I do.

    Elliot and Daphne looked back to see who had called his name. Standing there amid the chaos was Joel, an urgent look on his face as he signaled for Elliot to come over."Joel?" Elliot muttered to himself, his brows furrowed in confusion.Joel was his personal assistant, and the fact that he had come only meant one thing—meetings.Nathan gently pulled Daphne away from the group to the back of the room, approaching Joel."Humm, everyone, let's be calm," Mick's voice broke through the murmurs.The room became silent as they quieted down to hear what Mick had to say."We'll reach a conclusion regarding the SPARK designer soon, but for now, let's all focus on working on the design as earlier stated," Mick continued, finally getting everyone's attention."Okay, Hmmm, I believe this is where I step in," Bella said, standing up at Mick's signal."Yes, thank you," Mick muttered as he handed over the mic to her."Okay, hello everyone, I'm Bella, the creative director for this project.

    Daphne turned to look at Nathan, her brows raised as she asked, "What question?""Would you mind if we took it away from here? It's quite important." Nathan stated."If it's important, I guess it can wait a few more minutes," Daphne stated, turning to face Elliot.Nathan was not surprised by her response, putting into consideration the fact that she was currently really pissed at Elliot."Could you guys give us a minute? We will join you all shortly," Elliot stated, taking Daphne by the hand and walking out of the building.Elliot walked a few feet to the right of the building before turning into a corner. Only then did he let go of Daphne's hand."For god's sake, what the f*ck did you just pull in there?" Elliot asked, totally pissed."Nothing less than the reaction you are supposed to get when you don't consult me before making some certain decision." Daphne shot back at him.Her eyes were hardened, almost blazing with fire as she tried to stare Elliot down.Elliot brushed his left

    Nathan stood up and walked a few feet away from the table before turning back to face Elliot."I need to speak with your designer," Nathan stated.Elliot was silent for a few seconds, unsure what Nathan was trying to imply."Okay, would you care to explain? Because I'm aware you already have a designer for your project," Elliot responded."I can't really go into specifics right now," Nathan stated."Okay, who specifically do you want to speak with?" Elliot asked, adding, "Bella or some other fashion house designer, who I know you can meet on your own without coming to me.""I can't explain anything for sure right now; I need to speak with your major partner," Nathan stated."Okay, hold on, what exactly is going on? You don't sound like your usual self," Elliot said, his eyes squinting in concern before adding, "Does this have to do with your grandfather?"Nathan's head snapped to Elliot in surprise at his words."What?

    "Dad, what do we do?" Emily asked her father.The embarrassment of the day before had been weighing heavily on her mind."What else can we do? She is practically untouchable right now," Amelia stated.Emily raised her eyebrows, an angry look crossing her face as she responded, "Says who, Mom?" She is going to pay for this; I swear she will. How high can she rise again?""Enough, the both of you! We need to come up with a plan," her father snapped at them, his brow furrowed in thought."I really don't think we should go against Ava anymore; she is no longer the girl we used to know. What if she decided to come make us pay for what we did to her all those years ago?" Amelia asked in concern."She won't, because I won't let her," Emily stated firmly."Shut up! Nobody is making anyone pay; we need to find a way to get into her good books right now," Charles stated.Emily's hand clenched into a fist beside her at her father's words."Why do we need to do that?"

    Nathan's eyes narrowed, his hand clenching into a fist, as his jaw tightened.His voice was cold and sharp as he responded, "I have no idea what Tyler is talking about.""I don't think we should do this here," Peter interjected, looking between Timothy and Nathan."I agree," Mike stated, a nervous look coming to his face."Shut the f*ck up; you don't have a say here," Tyler responded to Mike."It's not going to be much of a problem if Tyler just tells us what he knows," Wyat said with a satisfied grin."I don't want that," Peter snapped, shutting Wyatt up."We will have this conversation at the office tomorrow then," Timothy stated, signaling for someone in the crowd."That would be better; we can't have everyone staring at us for having a family spat right now," Peter added."Okay, if that would be all, I guess we are done here, right?" Nathan stated, looking at everyone before adding, "Good night."He walked away from the group and headed to the entrance. Mike followed him closely,

Oliver and Mr. Clark were walking her through the various departments in the building."Thank you all for the good work over the years. I hope to have a splendid time working here with you all," Ava responded with a smile.As they left the office, Ava looked at Oliver and asked, "How many offices do we have to go to?""Not much; I think it's just the human resource department and IT department," Oliver replied."Okay," Ava muttered as they entered an elevator at the end of the hall."After the introductions, we would be heading to your office on the last floor," Mr. Clark interjected."Okay, and what is the last floor?" Ava asked curiously.Mr. Clark only grinned at her and kept mute as Oliver tried not to laugh beside them."What?" Ava asked, but they didn't give her a response.After a few seconds, Oliver stated, "I guess we'll find out soon enough.""Oh, and that

    "Really? Who is it?" Someone asked from the group.All eyes were glued to Mick, expecting his answer, wishing it was their own design that won."The winner for the design submission is," Mick replied."I have something to say before that," Daphne stated coldly.Her voice cut through the excitement like a sword as she stood up to face the crowd.Mick turned to look at her, noticing her expression for the first time."Hmm, of course," Mick muttered, stepping aside for her."So, the winner announcement would be put on hold for now," Daphne stated.There were silent murmurs as everyone looked confused, glancing from her to Mick."Okay, hold on, why? Mick just mentioned that he has the winner's name with him." Bella stated.Daphne turned towards her, her gaze freezing as she turned her icy stare at her."I see no reason why I should give you a response here; if Elliot is not around, I'm as good as being in charge."

    "Don't you think we need to go see them at the school?" Bella asked as she packed her bag."Stop running!" Ava shouted to Jenna, who was running after Angel up the stairs."Come on, buddy, the competition is going to happen eventually. Okay, I'm sure they probably have a reason for shifting it forward," Brad said, patting Jordan on the back."I don't think there is any point in going; Nora was probably just messing with me when she called," Ava replied with a shrug."Why would she do that?" Bella asked."If I know her, which I kind of do, she is just trying to rub it in my face," Ava muttered."Well, I guess the joke is on her now, Ms. CEO," Brad teased.Ava smiled, moving over to Jordan as Brad stood up to head out the door."I'll see you guys later," Brad called over his shoulder."Bye, Dad!"

    For a few seconds, Nora struggled to find the words with which to respond to Tyler."Didn't mean to get you all scared, you know, just saying how bad it's going to look if Nathan finds out what happened in LA," Tyler muttered."You wouldn't dare!" Nora replied, her voice low and hardened as her eyes darted around the room, a flicker of tension betraying her tough behavior."Oh, you should worry about yourself; I just might tell him when you least expect it. That's why they say karma's a b*tch," Tyler responded, folding his hand on his chest."Then I bet you, you're going to lose all you ever hold dear; hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, Tyler. Thomas is going to get acknowledged as Nathan's heir, and then you're going to be worthless like you are meant to be," Nora spat at him in disdain.The smile on Tyler's face faded away as he took three steps closer to Nora, pushing back against a couch.Tyler leaned close, his lips to her ear as he whispered, "Oh, I would like to see you tr
