"What the hell was that?!" Wyatt shouted at Scarlett when the humiliating meal was finally over.

He didn't know how he pulled through, sitting there listening to the men exchanging drinks and business information, when all he could hear was the girl's musical voice pronouncing the name he hated the most--

Dunn Group.

All the laughter exchanged after that sounded like mocking in Wyatt's ears -- his fiancee, his OWN woman, suggesting that his company was not worthy of the project he worked for, but said that his arch enemy's company was!

How could he endure such a slap in the face?!

"I thought you wanted Tom to like me," Scarlett put on a pitiful look, peering at the furious Wyatt with a timid voice, "I wanted to sound smart so I just said all that I gathered in the financial magazines you gave me...I'm really sorry if I said something wrong..."

"You...?!" Wyatt was so mad he lost his voice, glaring at the apologizing little girl, gasping for air.

"I must have said it wrong, haven't I..

    Scarlett could hear her heart pounding in her chest fast like a drum. She didn't know whether it was for being so close to the man's chest, or for the words he just said.She had been with Wyatt since she was sixteen, and to be fair, Wyatt was a man very good at saying sweet words, much better than Everett at least. Yet with all the sweet words Wyatt had said in the past years combined, it was still lighter than what Everett Dunn just said now.Scarlett had always thought it was rightful of Wyatt to ask for her help, because she loved him, and never did she know she could be so touched when such an offer was rejected for her benefit.Before she could say anything, Everett Dunn already backed away, a shade of pain flashed through his eyes, but it was so fast that Scarlett almost feel like she imagined that."I--" Scarlett opened her mouth, but her voice broke in her throat with a sob."Sorry," Everett said with a resigned tone, sorrow filled his eyes. His lips moved, but in the end, he

    There was an outdoor cafe at the corner of fifth Avenue and Marble Street named Kitten Door. It was Scarlett's favorite --She used to ambush her father when she was little so she could blackmail him for a meal in a restaurant instead of going home and having his cooking -- this cafe was right across the street from Eva Dew's building.And on this Monday morning, Scarlett was again sitting at her usual table, sipping coffee and glancing through something on her iPad -- but this time she was preparing for her interview at Eva Dew in an hour."Pretty dress," A voice rose nearly right behind her ear, and Scarlett almost jumped up from her seat for being too focused to notice someone approaching."Everett?!" Scarlett snapped angrily when she saw who that man was, suppressing the urge of smashing her iPad on his annoying smirk, "Were you planning on giving me a heart attack?!"Everett grinned brightly at her, sitting down on the opposed seat in a leisurely move, seemingly in a good mood."

    They were on their way to meet The Madam this morning when Everett saw Scarlett and derailed the schedule. Everett didn't return the calls and just hinted to Edward to drive on.On his phone was a simple text Mrs. Dunn sent this morning--[Residence 82.]"Boss," Driving in silence for a few minutes, Edward finally opened his mouth hesitatingly, "the madam threw a fit at the company yesterday because of the bidding project.""Hmm." Everett had his eyes closed as a single syllable escaped his nose."I mean..." Edward took a deep breath to gather his courage, because he knew how much Everett hated to touch this topic, "maybe if you rejoin the bidding like Miss Ryan asked--""Her problem is not with the bidding," Everett cut Edward off with an emotionless statement, his eyes still closed."But she's using it as an excuse to summon you," Edward gripped the steering wheel tight, outing his thought altogether.Everett let out a light chuckle and opened his eyes, amused.

    Scarlett's first week was busy as hell.Most companies wouldn't put too much pressure on the newcomers, but among the dozen newly hired, Scarlett was the only one with just a high school degree, and she not only had to do her job, but also had tons of professional books to catch up, on both the current stream and fashion history.Her portfolio was the only reason she wasn't laughed out of the room. Though strict, her interviewer -- and now her supervisor -- did see value in her designs.Mature skill and refreshing design.That comment from her supervisor among three interviewers got her the position.Friday night, Scarlett finally closed the inches-thick magazine, Fashion Show Year Collection, only to realize she was one of the few left in the office at eight o'clock.

I'm giving Everett Dunn the chance to beg all he wants before I grab the fruit from right under his fucking nose!"Scarlett froze where she was, horrified.Dunn Group was out?!

    Scarlett died today, on the way to her beloved husband, in the hands of that exact husband and her own "loving sister"...Ten minutes ago--Her car flipped over and crashed into the ground. Bound to the driver's seat upside down, Scarlett couldn't see or move for several minutes before she realized what happened--She'd crashed into a car that had just cut her off on the highway and suddenly braked hard.Everything hurt. Her legs were jammed between the seat and the cracked steering wheel. Her arms twisted at a bizarre angle with broken glass pieces sticking out. A large piece of glass stuck out of her chest, blood oozing out. Her head was pounding from hitting the window, leaving her sight blurred.Scarlett let out a bitter and painful laugh -- she thought her misery was finally over when she was released from prison only a week ago, and here she was, dying in pain, alone.A pair of feet came into her fuzzy sight."Help...please..."

Being away from these stuff for years, it takes time to pick them up."Why are you taking your iPad with you when you come to drink at a bar?!" Evelyn grumbled with utter frustration, shaking Scarlett's arm as they settled down on a couch at the third random bar they went to that week--Evelyn was determined to spend all her free time with Scarlett before Scarlett's "career" starts."Have to deliver the portfolio by tomorrow night..." Mumbled Scarlett, still drawing on her iPad without looking up. Having no experience in design, her only advantage in getting this job was the three years she spent in prison in her last life--She went to prison dreaming of the day when Wyatt would forgive her and give her the wedding she deserves. Though that dream never came true, Scarlett spend all her time in prison designing her own wedding dress, one after another.She picked some of her favorites
