Priscilla forced a smile.“The man was really good at lying. With such a strong concentration of alcohol smell in the car, how could he drink just a little?” She thought to herself.“He drank a lot!” She muttered to herself.However, she was not in a position to care for him and was too embarrassed, so she pursed her lips and stopped talking.David turned around and asked her with a smile, “ Miss Priscilla, where do you live?”Priscilla said her address for David to enter into the vehicle navigator before starting the car.There was a dead silence in the car. Priscilla crossed her fingers, her hands in her lap, and tilted her head towards the window.Perhaps because the aura of the man beside her was too powerful, Priscilla felt a bit restrained, and her entire spine was tensed up.Fredrick looked at her cautious expression and smiled secretly. “ Did you come to the Waals Residence?” he asked.Priscilla was stunned for a moment before she responded, “Yes.”“As far as I can remember yo
During that time, Ryan was so busy that Julian helped him handle a few cases perfectly, which impressed him.When Jillian returned from abroad, she accepted to lead the Public Relations department of this company due to Ryan’s begging.Since then, the agency, called Famous Entertainment, has hardly come across any major problems.Even in today’s increasingly competitive industry environment, it made generous profits.In just two years, it had rapidly developed from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy to a large media company that had no rival other than Anderson International.Priscilla was not a genius and had never been in this field before.Besides her talent, she had worked hard day and night to make such achievements.She did all these just because it was Ryan’s company.Ryan, on the other hand, chose not to disclose their relationship.At that time, she didn’t think much about it, and just assumed that he didn’t want their relationship to interfere with their work, so she
Priscilla looked at the watch in her hand with an expressionless face. After a while, she finally heard Ryan coughed.“Okay, time’s up, let’s start the meeting!” Ryan said.It was then everyone sat back in their seats.Ryan glanced at Priscilla, a hint of complexity flashing through his gaze. But in the end, his guilt and said in a deep voice.“Let me start today’s meeting with an introduction. This is Regina, I think everyone present should know her.” He said.The crowd echoed, “Of course! Regina is so famous in our country.” “I have always seen her on TV and never met her in real life. Well, she’s much prettier in person than on TV.” A voice from the crowd said.“No wonder she is the most popular star present!” Another voice chipped in.The crowd slithered, and Ryan nodded with satisfaction.“I called everyone here today to announce two matters. First, Regina will sign a contract with Famous Entertainment to become our important Artist from now on.” Ryan said.The crowd was stunne
Everyone seemed to understand it, and only one person raised a question.“Since Terry will be the manager of the PR department, what position will Miss Priscilla hold? The person asked.The crowd liked Priscilla.Ryan glanced at her and after remaining silent for two seconds, he said in a deep voice, “ Priscilla will be demoted to an assistant manager. She should learn from Terry first. There will be plenty of opportunities for her to get promoted in the future.”The crowd was startled and speechless. It was not uncommon to make mistakes and be demoted.But Priscilla had made great contributions to the company, and it was really embarrassing for her to get demoted after what she had done for the company these years.Priscilla finally showed a hint of sneer.Under everyone’s gaze, she calmly stood up and propped her hands on the table to look at Ryan, who was sitting in the host seat.“Mr. Smith, you said I lack experience in understanding the depth of the industry as well as connectio
Priscilla left the Famous Entertainment. When she left, there were a few co-workers who came to see her off, but most of them did this out of respect.After reaching the parking lot, she put her belongings in the trunk and drove directly toward the Smith Group.Harold was an honest man and had already prepared the transferring documents and Cheque.When Priscilla arrived at the Smith Group, Harold was in a meeting, and it was Ben who received her.There were three subsidiary companies under her name. Two of them were liquidated as she had requested last night, leaving only one.Priscilla readily signed the document and handed over her marriage arrangement paper to Ben.After all the formalities were handed over, the meeting Harold was in was not over yet. Ben asked her if she wanted to sit down and wait for a while to greet the chairman before leaving, but Priscilla politely declined his suggestion.She had already gotten what she wanted, and there was no need for her to meet anyone
“Assistant.” Priscilla got stubborn and sneered when she raised her arms, “What if I insist on trying it on today?”The sales assistant frowned as her colleagues next to her heard the noise and came over. “What’s wrong she asked?”The sales assistant whispered a couple of words to her colleague and they both let out a forced smile. “Miss this dress is newly released and costs 100, 000 dollars. Are you sure you want to buy it?” she asked.Priscilla sneered, “You asked whether I would buy it before I tried it on. Your shop is really good at entertaining customers.”“I’m really sorry we are trying to protect the interest of other customers. After all, the clothes in our store are expensive high-end-fashion, if everyone tries them on without buying them, won’t the clothes become a second-hand bargain. Don’t you think so?” She asked.The sales assistant smiled but her eyes were full of sarcasm and mockery.Priscilla thought that today must be her doomed day. How could she come across such
“Why was he here?” Priscilla questioned herself.Priscilla instantly tensed up and glanced behind David, but she didn’t see the man in her mind.Anabel did not know him and frowned unpleasantly, saying, “Who are you?”David answered and commanded directly the person behind him.“The Lincoln always has a rule. We won’t bully any customer even if it runs a large business. How dare you be arrogant as a shareholder and bully customers in the mall? If we let you do this for a long time, it will definitely ruin the fame of the Group.” David said.“Mr. Lawson, take down Miss Smith’s words today and fling them back to Mr. Smith. Ask them not to blame us for kicking them out despite the contract. From now on, let them not get involved in the business group.” He ordered.Mr. Lawson trembled and agreed hastily.Anabel’s face changed immediately, “Y-You are from the Lincoln Group?” she asked as realization dawned on her.David answered, “Miss Smith has finally figured out what’s going on.”“Even
They wandered from afternoon to evening in the shopping mall.Priscilla was hungry.In order to thank her for helping him pick clothes, Frederick invited Priscilla for dinner.Priscilla was so hungry that she didn’t refuse him. At seven in the evening, they went to the nearby fancy restaurant for dinner. She ate ten of the newly released steamed fresh shrimp quickly.The young man beside them looked straight at him and wondered how could such an elite and handsome-looking dude starve his girlfriend like that. How many days had passed since her last meal?Priscilla wouldn’t mind her image when she was hungry.This was the skill she trained after working for several years.When she was busy most of the time, it was a luxury to eat on time. In that situation, there was no time for her to mind her appearance. She just wants to finish eating and get back to work.When she finished the tenth shrimp and wanted to grab more, the plate was suddenly carried away.She looked up and stared at Fre
Priscilla didn’t say anything, she just held the hot milk and smiled.Fredrick said a few words. Looking at her smile, he didn’t complain but also smiled, “Tell me! Have you already planned it for a long time?”She nodded.His appearance today was an accident, but his proposal was similar to her original plan. She also wanted to compete with Regina again.But with Frederick’s help this time, the competition would be easier and fairer.Fredrick seemed to have thought of this as well. He smiled and said, “It seems that I shouldn’t have come here.”Priscilla hurriedly shook her head, “No, it’s good that you are here.” She didn’t speak more. Although she had already made a plan, she was not confident enough.No one knew whether the competition would be fair five years later without a fair judge.So it was good that he was here.It felt like suddenly having someone behind her and she felt more confident!Nancy walked out of the hotel and said with a smile, “Oh, I see something I shouldn’t
Ryan’s face darkened.Regina grabbed his arm and said in a trembling voice, “I didn’t...”Nancy sneered, “Good acting!”Regina was speechless.As the crowd around became more and more suspicious, she couldn’t stand it anymore.She looked at Priscilla sadly and said in a trembling voice, “I didn’t expect you to say that even now! Well, if you insist that I had set you up, I have nothing to refute. But you can’t prove what you said just by these empty words!” Regina’s admirers around couldn’t bear to see her so sad and fragile.Some of them shouted, “Yes, you didn’t explain it five years ago. Now that it has been so long after that, how can you prove you were innocent?”Nancy was stunned. She had been following Priscilla’s plan all this time, but she didn’t expect this to happen. Seeing this, she glanced at her.With a cold smile on her lips, Priscilla was about to speak.“Who said it can’t be proved?”A cold and calm voice suddenly came from outside.The voice seemed to be wrapped in t
Lyla wanted to respond but was stopped by the headmaster.He frowned, glanced around the crowd, and finally fixed his eyes on Nancy, “Miss Swift, please tell me about what’s going on.”Nancy told him everything in detail.With so many people present, she said it objectively and fairly. She didn’t exaggerate or lie.The headmaster frowned after he heard all of those, “So, Regina, is it correct that, you think, Priscilla stole the original draft of your design five years ago and tonight she wanted to shake her crime and then frame you again, so you sent Lyla here to steal the draft back. Am I right?”Regina was stunned.After a while, she took a deep breath.She knew that it was useless to argue at this time.She could only say, “I admit that I did unintentionally mention it to her before. My sister took away my original draft and might use it to frame me, but I didn’t ask her to steal it back for me. I didn’t expect her to do that tonight. If I had known it earlier, I wouldn’t have agr
Lyla suddenly understood everything. It turns out that Regina did it on purpose. She said those words on purpose to provoke her to steal the file.And she was free from the case afterward. Then the case now had nothing to do with her.Even if the truth was revealed, Lyla would be the only one to be punished.Lyla looked at Regina in disbelief, as if it was the first time that she had known her, “Regina, You got your clothes dirty. It was me who brought you new clothes. You told me in the room that you would hold Priscilla back and not let her go back to her room and asked me to steal the manuscript for you. You must admit it!”Regina frowned.This idiot!Why was this idiot still holding on to this?Didn’t this idiot understand that only when she was innocent and stayed outside could she help her out of the jail?But now Lyla just wanted to drag her into the mire. How could there be such a stupid person?Regina was furious, but she had no idea how she could stop her. She gritted her te
The onlookers’ discussion had thrown Lyla completely out of her wit and Priscilla also looked unwilling to let her go, so suddenly Lyla shouted, “That’s enough! What kind of business secret? It was just a simple design draft.”“Priscilla, you stole Regina’s design five years ago and told everyone it was your own so that she has missed the opportunity to be admitted to the Royal University of Fine Arts. Now, you still want to use the original draft of five years ago to frame her again! Do you think it is yours? You are so vicious. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by God?”Hearing this, everyone was stunned. What? The design draft in her hand was the one that caused Priscilla to be involved in the scandal of five years ago.What did she mean by that?Someone had realized what Lyla meant. They turned to look at Priscilla with strange looks.Priscilla framed Regina with the original draft five years ago and claimed that the design was hers, which meant...Nancy’s face also changed as s
As expected, Ryan frowned.Priscilla raised her eyebrows.She raised her wrist and looked at her watch to check the time.It was already half past ten at night.Although it was not very late, it was definitely not early.She curled her lips and said, “No, but it seemed like you are having great fun here, you can stay here. Enjoy yourself!”Then she walked towards the elevator without looking back.Regina’s face darkened.She wanted to stop Priscilla again, but she seemed to have made up her mind and ignored her voice.Regina was pissed off.‘Damn it! Why hasn’t Lyla come down yet?’Ryan frowned beside her, “Regina, don’t force her if she just wants to leave. Let her go. There are still people waiting for us over there.”Regina looked panicked.Seeing the elevator door was about to close, she gritted her teeth and suddenly rushed forward.“Priscilla!” Ryan’s face changed dramatically. Even Priscilla, who had already entered the elevator, couldn’t help frowning slightly.After a flash,
As expected, Ryan frowned.Regina secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Anyway, he still cared about her.Since now he had known that she was wronged, he would certainly help her take revenge!However, to her surprise, Ryan only said in a low voice, “You’d better stay away from her in the future.”Regina was stunned and widened her eyes in disbelief.She looked at Ryan in disbelief as if she had heard something completely impossible. “What… What did you say?”Ryan said impatiently, “Every time you two meet, you will quarrel with each other like enemies of life. It seems that she is unreasonable, but actually, it’s always you who took the initiative to provoke the fighting. Regina, it’s already a mistake for us two to be together, so definitely she hates you for that. Why do you still take the initiative to provoke her and get yourself annoyed?”Regina was stupefied.She looked at the man in front of her and couldn’t believe what he had said just now.Tears welled up in her eyes.” Ryan,
Lyla’s voice came through the door.“Regina, are you still inside? I brought you a gown.”Regina resumed her expression before turning around to open the door.“Thank you. Where is Lindsay?”“You’re welcome. She told me what happened so I told her I’ll be the one to assist you.” Lyla noticed her abnormal look and asked with concern, “Are you alright?”Regina forced a smile and shook her head.Although she was shaking her head, everything on her face indicated that there was something on her mind, making her sad.How could Lyla not see the hint? She said in a worried tone, “Regina, did Priscilla that b*tch bully you again? What did she tell you?”Regina still shook her head. After a pause, she took Lyla’s hand and said, “I’m fine. I’m just… I’m just worried.”“Worried about what?“I…” Regina hung her head and her eyes sparkled.“Regina, come on, speak it out to me.” Lyla urged.Regina said in a gentle voice, “You probably won’t believe it. I find it unbelievable as well. I did not expe
Regina was stunned.A frozen silence trailed along the air between them.A few seconds later, she burst into a smile.She looked up at Pricilla and blurted coldly, “You think you can fool me?”Priscilla shook her head, “Forget it if you don’t believe me.”Regina’s face darkened.“What exactly do you mean by saying this?”“Nothing, it is great if you can understand, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. I just want to remind you, that you brought me down five years ago because I was off guard, but now it is different! Do you think I am so silly to come without fully prepared, knowing that you and Lindsay are trying to set me up and destroy my reputation again?”Regina’s face changed completely. She shook her head in disbelief and said, “It is impossible! If you had evidence, why didn’t you disclose it five years ago?”Priscilla smiled with faint mockery.Without another word, she turned around and was about to go inside.Caught in a panic suddenly, Regina reached out her hand to pull Pri
