Just as Charmine was thinking of ways to resolve the crisis, Mr. Kingston received a text. Once he read the text, he said to the camera, “My apologies, but I won’t sell this gown anymore as someone’s buying it for ten billion. Ten billion bucks.”

Ten billion bucks?!

“How is that possible? Who’d spend ten billion to buy this foolish gown?” whined Kelly Milan in her high-pitched voice.

Mr. Kingston’s brows furrowed in displeasure. “And this is customer’s privacy, which I’ll never disclose. Ms. Milan, please mind your attitude. That’s the end of today’s auction. Goodbye.”

With that, he left the platform, and the live-streaming auction ended as he turned it off.

Kelly Milan felt waves of white-hot anger within her. Was this old man actually asking her to mind her attitude? He merely made a foolish gown, so what rights did he have to tell her off? He was the one going against the rules in the first place! Still, what annoyed her most was the two people: One called against her on

    Kelly could feel the threat in Charmine’s tone even through the phone, and her expression turned stormy at that moment. Charmine was threatening her with litigation! If the artists did proceed with litigation, the court would call for a subpoena, and if this was not satisfied, it would be regarded as a voluntary waiver of rights. Charmine was so mean and evil! Was she really going to destroy HollyOak Entertainment completely? What mayhem! At that moment, Kelly’s assistant approached her. “Ms. Milan, a woman named Ronnie came for you. She said she’s the assistant of Tiffany Jordan, and she wants me to pass on this letter to you.” Tiffany Jordan? Kelly frowned. Although she was HollyOak Entertainment’s director, she never really cared about the company as she only invested money just for the sake of it. Even many of the staff in the company did not know about her. In fact, many people did not even know she was HollyOak Entertainment’s director until a certain incident that

    “Correct. Tell me right away if something catches your eye in the near future,” said Anthony with a deep and elegant voice. Charmine’s heartbeat disappointingly skipped a beat. He spent ten billion just because she liked the gown? She looked at him and asked, “Why are you so kind to me?” They never owed each other anything; they were only fulfilling the contract. She made it clear that she would leave in two months. Anthony looked at her with doubt, though he had a faint smirk on his face. “Are you sure you want to hear the reason?” That voice… That tone... “No need,” Charmine hastily replied. “Well… I’ll go and accompany Chris. Thank you.” With that, she hurriedly walked away with the gift box in her hands. Anthony would have surely confessed his feelings once more had he truly replied; he would have told her that he fancied her. Rejecting him too many times could really hurt his ego, thus it was wiser to walk away. Still, as she walked away with the exquisite box

    Anthony remained stoic. “I’ll sleep on the sofa.” Chris then slowly began to sob. “Waa… Waa…! No, no…! Momo wants Daddy to watch over, Momo is scared…!” Charmine hugged the boy in an attempt to comfort him. “Momo, don’t be scared, Mommy will be with you. Your Daddy can still watch over you, even if he’s sleeping on the sofa.” “Waa…! But other kids get to sleep with their Daddy and Mommy, and Timmy even called me to flex that he sleeps in between his parents! He said that one of them hugged him while the other held on his hand…!” “Waa…! Momo never felt that before, and they all laughed at Momo! They don’t like me…” wailed Chris as streams of tears ran down his cheeks without restraint. Charmine’s arm was damped with his tears. She did not know why, but Charmine felt like giving the world to Chris whenever he cried. Still… Did she have to sleep with Anthony? She still tried to comfort him, “Momo, please don’t cry. Scientific research indicated that two sides of the child

    She had just decided to distance herself from Anthony this very afternoon, too... Charmine began to have second thoughts. Was this all not too much of a coincidence? Momo said he was dizzy, but Anthony then entered the room and hit him with the wooden stick… Amid her convoluted thoughts, Charmine seemed to understand something... Anthony’s acting skill was too good. He pulled such an act with his son just to share a bed with her? More surprisingly, that did not frustrate her. In fact, she could not even bear to be angry with him. If this went on, something could very well happen between them. Charmine’s eyes narrowed as she made an important decision; she wanted to tell him the truth about herself. Anthony would find out eventually, and Charmine was not a person who liked to hide the truth. She thought carefully of the sentence she was about to say, and as she balled her fists tightly, Charmine confessed, “Anthony, don’t fall for me. Nothing will happen between you and I. I wa

    Charmine noticed that she was the one who had moved. Somehow, she was no longer sleeping on her far side of the bed, but she had moved inwardly to the center! In other words, it was not Anthony who came over to hug her, but she was the one to have snuggled into his arms? Charmine flushed with panic and embarrassment; this did not seem right. She usually slept without moving too much, and it was unlikely for her to roll around in bed. How did this happen? Once he sat up, Anthony fixed his clothes elegantly and smirkingly commented, “It was understandable the last time when this happened, since Ms. Jordan was poisoned. This time is different, so shouldn’t Ms. Jordan explain what happened to me?” The last time… To her dismay, Charmine recalled the night she was poisoned by Manager Brown. When she regained consciousness at that period, her brain had segments of scenes: Some were of her launching at Anthony, some were of her grinding on him, and some were of her going on top of h

    One could tell right away that it was her in the painting. Charmine then began, “Momo, what if we don’t—” Before she could finish her sentence, Chris chirped, “I’ll get this sorted right away, Mommy! See you later!” With that, he swiftly ran away with his two tiny legs. Charmine could only sigh. That little boy... Nevermind. She never came across any visitor since the day she lived in this mansion, and Momo did say that his grandparents did not like him. Perhaps it was unlikely for them to visit. She regained her composure and started prepping for the night’s Night of Glory. Although she had 10 hours till then, with her formal gown, she had to complement it with a nice hairstyle and pick matching accessories and shoes to show her respect for Mr. Kingston’s hard work. After the meal, April came toward her with a box at hand. “Ms. Jordan, Mr. Bailey told me to take charge of your styling today.” Charmine did all she could to avoid Anthony after their morning incident, bu

    After a good while, Charmine answered, “When she wakes up, she must live-stream an apology in front of all her followers and media. She has to admit her wrongdoings and apologize to me.” Tiffany had been hiding away in the hospital as she pretended to be ill, lying on the hospital bed. She had no intention to get involved with the discussions. Did she truly think that after everything she had done, she could stay silent and let time wipe off the memory from everyone’s minds? Hmph, not a chance! Joey hesitated at Charmine’s condition; Tiffany had not been in her best state recently. What if Tiffany fainted again seeing negative online criticisms aimed at her, just as she was getting better? She had such a fragile attitude. How could she apologize in public knowing that she would be criticized for it? Furthermore, sleeping with a brother-in-law was a very shameful act, and nobody would want to speak of it. Joey could not help asking, “Is there no other option? This condition seems…

    Tiffany was overwhelmed with hatred. Still, the more furious she was inwardly, the calmer she appeared on the outside. “Mom is right... I’ll apologize to my sister in front of everyone. I’ll do it.”Joey felt something was strange about her daughter’s pitiable look. Although she seemed sincere, Joey could feel that she had changed, as if something was different about her unknowingly. Joey chose not to dwell on it, however, as she just assumed that Tiffany was not in a good mood. Joey went on to cut Tiffany some fruits. Tiffany watched the moving fruit knife as waves of hatred flashed in her eyes. So, Charmine wanted to play? Well, she could barely wait to see who would be the one winning the game! Tiffany wanted nothing more than to see Charmine getting destroyed on the Night of Glory!... Paparazzi were already in the venue for the Night of Glory, even as early as in the afternoon. The night would be the biggest event in the modeling industry, and every popular supermodel in

    There was an unnoticeable glint in Sonia's eyes. She nestled herself further into Harry's arms as she added, "Let’s go to Pares.

He thought for a moment before he took out a laptop, turned it on, and plugged in the USB.A moment later, the screen showed what seemed to be peculiar surveillance footage with a descriptio

    Dior was still lost in her storm of thoughts when a shadowy figure zipped past her and ran toward Harry.When she spotted this familiar figure, she reacted quickly and held onto him."Let go of me!" growled Guy. "How dare he slap you and misunderstood you? I have to beat some sense into him!"Harry broke free and chased after Harry.Dior, despite having lost all hope and life in her, mustered the last strand of her will to chase after Guy and reeled him back. "Brother, don't," she muttered, "spare your energy…" Her sorrow clouded her eyes as she mumbled, "He’s the man I love. Even though he hates me, I won’t allow you to hurt him. As for the explanation…"Dior smiled ironically. "Whatever. That slap decimated every beautiful daydream I have about him, anyway."She no longer expected anything from him.He had no trust in her, so what would it matter if she finally got him? He did not even love her, and he did not trust her either.Dior smiled elegantly, but her eyes were fille

    Dior looked forward to that new shift.She watched as Harry made his way into the restaurant silently, unable to deter her mind from the daydreams she had of him, of the new chapter of their story they would have.He would apologize to her, trying to redeem himself, and kiss her dearly as he embraced her. Later down the line, they would have a child of their own, too.Harry's long legs walked in strides, his dark gaze trained on Dior.The bright light shone on Dior’s delicately stunning face, and she also wore a red dress.He remembered her wearing this back in Mount Village.He could remember how alluring she looked back then, how they stayed in the same room, how she put down her ego to treat him with so much gentleness.Harry’s cold face mellowed down, but recalling a certain memory, the vague wistfulness in him vanished and he sat in front of her.Dior looked at him fondly, like she always would. "Long time no see."Her eyes burned brightly as if she wanted to drink in his

    Dior examined the footage the moment she received it.True enough, it showed Sonia and George talking about their little deal. It also showed how Dior was telling the truth while they both ganged up on her.Dior’s frail heart felt as though it was rejuvenated once more, feeling as though blood was once more pumped into her heart. Her dull eyes devoid of hope regained their lost luster once more.Not thinking twice, she dialed Harry's number with this evidence, though he had to be busy, seeing as he did not pick up even after the phone rang for a long while.Just as she was about to hang up, Harry picked up the phone."What do you want?"On the other end of the call was the voice that she had missed for so long. His low, hoarse voice sounded so cold and emotionless.Hearing his voice brought Dior back to the image of his handsome face, and her heart skipped a beat.She tried her best to restrain her fluttering emotions as she tried to speak calmly, "Do you have time? I’d like to

    At Mount Village…Inside the elegant bamboo house was Dior, dressed in a beige dress. She sat in the front yard as she took sips of her wine.The sunlight shone past the leaves and illuminated her, yet she exuded an air of loneliness.She swirled the glass and could not help recalling the moments she spent with Harry.In the beginning, she was attracted by his looks; he looked so gentle and elegant.She gave him money, kept him company, and continuously showed up around him in hopes of conquering him.Alas, she ended up in this state.The time she spent with him in Mount Village was the happiest time she had ever had. They had lived inside the bamboo house together, where he took care of her and claimed her to be his woman.They even laid inside the same room.Everything was so beautiful.Cursed was her luck, however, that it was just an illusion.

    "Although Susan was unhappy, she should've voiced out her displeasure instead of bottling things. Cheating is wrong, regardless. Furthermore, if she wanted a career, she didn't have to stay home and depend on her husband."Grandma Bailey halted.Was that what Charmine truly thought of?Grandma Bailey thought Charmine would find Susan too aggressive unto herself.Charmine glanced at Susan again and apathetically commented, "She doesn't want to make money on her own, but she wants to be rich while complaining about her man not making time for her and taking care of her? If a woman has no ability of her own and also blames others for her miseries, all she's worth is to sit quietly at home and wait for her husband to come home. She also has no right to cheat! This is how the world works."Charmine patted Grandma Bailey’s shoulder and held Anthony’s hand, her words met with everyone's evidently surprised gazes and their silence.Grandma Bailey was shocked.

    The colossal cruise started to drift away from the pier.Eric stood on the cruise and let the wind blow at him, loneliness and hatred still oozing from his being.He stared at the blue ocean ahead of him as Charmine's words rang in his mind unceasingly.'Will you really feel good after you've killed them?''You saw Susan suffering from a serious wound; would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?'"Forgive them and yourself.'Deliberating everything carefully, his lips curled into a bitter smile.It was true, after all, that Charmine understood him the most.Eric poured himself another drink and downed it with loneliness as he allowed the cruise to bring him wherever it would take him.…Susan was still inside the operating room when Charmine and the rest of the Baileys rushed into the hospital.Darryl stood before the room, his expression blank, his figure lonely and helpless.So many things had happened in half a day.He found out about his wife's inf

    "No one's stopping you now. Eat!"Anthony clenched his hands tightly and took another glance at Charmine. He was more determined than before, and he was close to eating the pills in the bottle.Charmine, who was held hostage, gradually opened her eyes at that moment. Her gaze drifted toward Eric before she asked, her tone challenging, "Will you really feel good after you've killed them? You saw Susan suffering from a serious wound; would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?"Eric halted, and his eyes darkened.Charmine had just woken up, yet what she said…He cast a cold glance at Charmine. "It's my business, and it has nothing to do with you!"They were his family, and he did not want a family like this!Charmine looked squarely at him. "Eric, I don’t care if you used me or plotted against me all these years; I've treated you like a true friend, nothing more nor less. You were the only person who stayed by my side in the past five years, so I hope that you

    Anthony's breath hitched when he saw Charmine.He clenched his fists and, without doubting himself, relented "I can agree to your terms, so let her go right away. This has nothing to do with her; you only hate me after all. As long as you let her go, I'll take the pill. Everything will end right away."Susan shook her head. "We'll die after eating the pill. I’m not taking that!"She had just reunited with Eric, and she did not want to die yet. She looked at Eric and begged, "Please let Anthony be, why don't you? He’s your brother, after all, and he doesn’t even know about your existence. If you’re really angry, just kill Charmine, and I'll make it up to you—"Anthony's expression contorted in sheer fury upon hearing Susan's plea, and he glared at her with murderous intent."This was all your fault, so what right do you have to make Charmine take your blame?!""What on earth are you going on about?" snapped Grandma Bailey.
