Vanessa nodded "when they said a designer was coming I didn't expect it to be you, how've you been?"

Claire responded "I'm fine Ms crystal. I used to work as Ms DeLane's assistant but I am a designer now. Ms DeLane told me she couldn't get past her creative block after you left. It's been difficult for her. "

The Manager's jaw dropped after listening to their conversation.

The shop attendant then whispered to the manager. "Isn't Ms DeLane the founder and chief designer of L'amore?"

The manager shuddered at the thought and staggered almost instantly.

'Dear God, who have I offended!'

Meanwhile, Yvette was at a loss for words at the turn of events.

'Not only does this country bumpkin know miss Hudgens, but she is also friends with the great DeLane! The founder of L'amore! Did Miss Hudgens mistake Vanessa for some one else? '

That was just Yvette's wishful thinking. Judging by their banter, it was clear that they were close acquaintance. Both Vanessa and Claire seemed to have forgotten th

    "Enough with your act! Aren't you from the country side? How did you know a designer from L'amore when you stayed in a village!"When Vanessa was about to defend her self, Claire stepped in. "So, what you're trying to say is that I don't know who I am talking to? Do you think I am blind? We don't welcome such uncouth customers in our store. Please leave."Yvette looked at her in disbelief. "How... How dare you! Do you know that I can easily destroy this company of yours with just a snap of my fingers? "Claire tilted her chin and looked down on Yvette. "Why don't you give it a try.""You! Don't regret what you've done today! There's punishment for messing with me!" Yvette exclaimed, she turned around and stormed away in frustration.'Im going to tell daddy to get L'amore out of New Haven, they dare disrespect the only mistress and heir of the Crawford family.

The owner of the mall knows her? How? She's just a lowly village girl! 'She could not believe it when she saw how Jonas was trying to flirt with Vanessa."I can't believe the heavens graced me with your presence my angel, such a wonderful day. It's been ages. I walked by a café earlier and bought a cup of coffee, if my memory serves me right. I believe you like coffee right?"Vanessa responded with a wry smile. She did not expect to see Jonas Bates here."Yeah, I do drink coffee. So... Where is it?

    As Vanessa recalled bits and pieces of her past, she felt herself burning with hatred for Khloe and Francis. Yet simultaneously, she despised herself for letting go of who she really was and succumbing to the result of her foolish decisions. Disappointing, I was worthless enough to ruin my daughter's life and mine. How stupid! "I'm not sure about that. Ms Khloe didn't seem too happy when she entered the house, so we were too scared to ask her anything." The maid replied. Even though Vanessa was the biological daughter of the Lawson family, the maids and other workers were still afraid of Khloe. Even though Khloe seemed approachable, she was tough to get along with . Vanessa didn't continue questioning the maid after that. Instead, her eyes flickered with malice before it disappeared. Khloe was sitting on the couch, she shot Vanessa a cold glare when she saw Vanessa walking in. Vanessa entered the hall with a nonchalant look on her face, and she sat down on the couch as she started a

    Vanessa knew that she would have to chase Khloe out eventually, but the time wasn't right. First, she had to slowly regain everything that Khloe had taken from the lawson family. Then she would chase Khloe out when she was the clear winner in the situation. After chasing her out she would make sure Khloe doesn't have it easy. Their father, Mr Lawson trust Khloe more than Vanessa. So she has to be careful, slow yet precise if she wants to change the mistakes she made in her past life.Vanessa's response made Khloe even angrier than before. In the past, Vanessa used to be a polite and sweet sister. Besides, Khloe had already established her ground in Lawson corporation after spending years with their parents and Vanessa respected that.However, Vanessa had stopped pleasing Khloe since master Leonardo dropped her off at the house. Khloe was kind enough to prepare some food for Vanessa after that. However, Vanessa didn't just skip the food, she even snipped off some of the flowers that Kh

    "That b*stard definitely didn't hold back with his slap!"Vanessa hated how Khloe was trying to act like the good sister in front of her father, so she decided to own up to her doings."I'm that b*stard you spoke of, Dad."Mr Lawson turned around to stare at his daughter in shock. "Did you say that you were the one who hit Khloe?"Mr Lawson couldn't believe what he heard. Ever since they brought Vanessa back home, she had always been mature an thoughtful. She was a reserved girl who seemed rather shy at times and didn't look like the type to hit someone!"I hit her" Vanessa uttered honestly. "I-" before Vanessa could explain why, Khloe cut her off. "Vanessa and I had a tiny argument, Dad. She only slapped and kicked me as she was blinded by rage." Khloe said. She made it seem like she was the bigger person, but she always found a way to snitch on Vanessa simultaneously. Mr lawson expression turned grim when he heard khloe's words. "Regardless of the reason, you're still wrong for hitt

    Mr Lawson's had no expression on his face, he had truly been biased by not asking to hear what happened from Vanessa. He jumped to conclusions and might have even pushed his biological daughter away from him. He stared at Khloe, he was the one who nurtured her into the woman she had become. How could he let a one sided story blind him with anger.Khloe couldn't understand how the situation changed so suddenly, one moment she had the upper hand now she's being questioned!'how am I supposed to deal with this? Dad might be biased but if he starts doubting me, there will be trouble. I have to try to turn this on Vanessa somehow.'"Dad, I -" Mr Lawson raised his hand to stop Khloe from speaking."Who informed you that Vanessa saw and offended Master Leonardo? I want the truth Khloe." The expression on Mr Lawson's face was frightening and his voice was stern. Khloe felt a shiver go down her spine."I... I was..."

    "Th... That's not what I meant, Master Leonardo. Honestly didn't mean it that way." Beads of sweat formed on Mr Lawson's back. Leonardo noticed the shards of glass on the floor right then. "What's that?" Leonardo asked."That's a broken cup, Master Leonardo." Mr lawson replied with a faint smile. Leonardo took a look at khloe's swollen and partly red face before turning to Mr Lawson. Although Mr Lawson was the older man, he was afraid to look Leonardo in his eyes for fear that he had actually come to punish his daughter. Instead, Mr Lawson simply hung his head low with shame."It seems like this isn't a good time for me to visit, President Lawson. Were you punishing Khloe?" Leonardo asked."I was about to punish Vanessa, Master Leonardo. Vanessa must have offended you with her presence earlier at the mall. So we were having a talk to decide on the best way to punish her. " Mr Lawson started.'its better I handle Vanessa's punishment than leave it to him to decide. I'm not sure what ha

    When both Vanessa and Leonardo made eye contact with one another, Leonardo pulled his hand away all of a sudden. His movements were quick - it looked as if he was trying to avoid some sort of poison that was on Vanessa's face. Both Khloe and Mr lawson saw everything that Leonardo had done to Vanessa, and their minds were completely blown. Mr Lawson's eyes looked like they were about to fall off his sockets; he couldn't believe what he had just seen. When Leonardo ran his fingers across Vanessa's face, he saw a hint of sympathy. However, when he tried to get a better look at this, Leonardo returned to his usual expressionless look once more. "Who did this to you?" Leonardo asked in a deep voice that seemed restrained. "Was it her or your father?" He shot Khloe a cold glare before taking a glance at Khloe's hands. He was contemplating whether to chop off one or both of Khloe's arms; 'how dare she lay hands on my woman! she probably doesn't want to live anymore, I'll definitely fulfi

    Leonardo thought about it but could not think of anything to say that would scare her, so he simply added, "If you lose and want to cry about it, then come back and cry about it to me. I will avenge you after all, you are my woman."He would be getting married to her, and regardless of what their relationship was like, she would still his wife. It was within his power to protect her. If anyone mistreated her, he would avenge her. Vanessa was moved beyond words by his promise, a faint pink color painted her cheeks. In her past life she had rejected his proposal and angered him and the Quinn's family because of it. But when she fell into a state of despair, he was still willing to step forward and lend her a helping hand. It was then that she knew that he was not as cold and uncaring as he appeared to be. He was truly a good man. It was just that... his temper was a little unpredictable. His emotions flipped like a switch sometimes."Leonardo, I'm positive that I'll be able to hold on

    What a cunning fox! By the time the couple finished their meal, they received word that D'Angelo had arrived. The bodyguards cleared the table.Vanessa went forward and pushed Leonardo's wheelchair out of the pavilion. When she heard that D'Angelo had come, she kept looking around for him. Leonardo noticed her movements and turned around to ask, "Do you like D'Angelo?" "Nope. I like you, Leo!"Vanessa was not foolish enough to step on this landmine set by Leonardo. In any case, she was telling the truth She had no feelings toward D'Angelo in her past life, she never got to make an appointment with him to do her hair. It was her lingering sense of regret that drove her to look around for him.Leonardo's temper was appeased by her declaration. He commented neutrally, "Not many people have the ability to convince D'Angelo to make a house call.""I know that. Thank you, Leo. You've been so nice to me!"Vanessa was a master of flattery. While Leonardo hated flattery from others, he d

    Leonardo did not pick up her call. However, Vanessa did not give up, and on the sixth attempt, he finally answered his phone. "Leo," Vanessa greeted in a sweet voice. He did not respond. "Leo, I can't find my way in. Can you get someone to lead the way for me?" No response again. "Leo..." Vanessa's voice grew soft and pleading. Perhaps her tone had been sweet enough to melt the iceberg of the man because he uttered coldly, "Stay where you are. Someone will come get you." "Okay. Thank you, Leo." Leonardo was the one who caused her predicament, but she still had to thank him. Vanessa was rather disgruntled, but she had no choice. After all, she was the one living under his roof, so she had to be the one who gave in. After hanging up the phone, Leonardo called his butler over and instructed him, "Mr. Clayton, go and lead the way fo her. She doesn't remember her way in." Vincent nodded respectfully. "Alright." Leonardo was about to move away in his wheelchair when a though

She was in a hurry to return to the Quinns, so she drove quickly.Actually, she wasn't a newbie, but this was a new car, and she cherished it. That was why she placed that sticker to remind others not to knock into her vehicle. At first, she didn't know the motorcade consisting of cars that cost millions belonged to her Boyfriend. However, when she saw the cars were still behind her after she stopped at the entrance of Quinn's Mansion, she finally realized that the motorcade belonged to Leonardo.-As she realized that, Leonardo also guessed the identity of the Porsche. He was the head of the Quinns Family, so he knew all the license plates for each car owned by the Quinns. Since he was unfamiliar with the Porsc

    Just as the family of three exited the building, Khloe came chasing with the bouquet Francis brought."Nessa." She ran with the flowers and stopped in front of Vanessa before giving them to her while explaining with a soft and gentle smile, "Francis asked me to help give you these flowers on his behalf. He said you had misunderstood him and were unwilling to receive these flowers. Actually, you did misunderstand him, Nessa. He didn't visit you because he was swamped. Now that he's done with his work, he came to visit you immediately, didn't he?" However, Vanessa didn't accept the flowers. She looked at the bouquet and found it was arranged with roses and baby's breath. Although it was arranged beautifully, they weren't flowers that she liked."I don't like roses," she stated as she looked at Khloe. Then, she argued, Mommy and I decided to come over in a spur of a moment, so how could Francis have known that I would be at the office and to come with flowers? Can he predict the futu

    Finally, Francis couldn't control himself any longer and wrapped one hand around her waist while still holding on to the flowers he was reluctant to throw away. After the kiss, she caressed his swollen cheek and asked, "What did you do to make her slap you?" Francis explained aggrievedly, "Actually, I didn't do anything to her. She ignored me, so I wanted to grab her hand, but then she turned around and slapped me. Her movement was so quick that I didn't have the time to react and got slapped right in the face." He continued to mumble, "Why didn't I discover that she was so nimble and, not to mention, very strong? When her slap ended on my cheek, it burned, and I could even feel it swell up." Resentment appeared in Khloe's eyes as she snarled, "Your family and I aren't even willing to touch a strand of your hair, but she dares to slap you. Just wait until I get my hands on her. Afterward, I'll help you get your justice and make her pay twice as much, don't worry this won't go un

    "Can you walk all the way back to my residence? If you can't, then you better head back now. I'll cut off all your hair if you're still late after I've been generous enough to give you sufficient time to get home. Don't say I didn't warn you Vanessa." "You... You chameleon!" she scolded in anger. "What did you just call me?" When she heard Leonardo's voice growing colder, she immediately became a coward and changed her comment. "I said you're very handsome, and my love for you is like the rolling sea, never- ending. It's... " "Nessa." The couple's conversation was suddenly interrupted by Francis' voice. Vanessa turned her head and saw him carrying a bouquet while striding toward her. He ignored Adrian's secretary while the secretary didn't even try to stop him. Meanwhile, Leonardo heard Francis' voice from her end of the phone and angrily hung up. "Leo? You hung up on me again! Just you wait. It will be my turn to hang up on you someday!"

    It was then he realized that his girlfriend seem to love smiling. "When will Mr D'Angelo be arriving?" "12:00PM, so you must be home before noon." As she looked at the time,Vanessa suggested, "Can't I arrive home before 12:30PM? My dad is taking us to Paradise hotel for lunch. Its said to be New Haven's best hotel and it has the best dishes." Her mouth couldn't help but water at the thought of all the dishes she would get to eat . This was her second lifetime, but no one has ever brought her to Paradise hotel for a meal.As she thought about it, she has failed as the heiress of the Lawsons. Leonardo could hear the unwillingness in her voice and softened his tone. "If you make me happy, I can let you eat at the paradise hotel's restaurant, live in their most luxurious room and enjoy their best service every day." After that, Vanessa commented, "That's right! How could I forget that your family owns Paradise hotel? By the way, do you like the heart I gave you? Remember i

    As Khloe was talking, Vanessa was eyeing her. She knew that Khloe did not want her to enter the company. Meanwhile, Khloe looked calm the whole time. Vanessa withdrew her gaze and explained, "Dad, I think mum is right. It's our family matter and we should be able to make decisions ourselves. I only need your approval to work in our family company. " Previously, Leonardo mentioned that Khloe would still see her as the enemy regardless of whether she wanted to fight over their parents' inheritance. As long as she was the biological daughter of the Lawson house hold, she would be a threat to Khloe. As she thought about it, she figured Leonardo would support her decision to enter the Lawson corporation, as joining the corporation meant she was competing against Khloe. Adrian glared at his daughter while trying not to mention the Quinns' house rules because Khloe is present in the room. "Let's talk about this later."
