Chapter 81: Switched Sides

The next night, Phyllis uploaded a video about the maliciously accused heiress. Being branded as a mistress of an old man is not a good thing for any single woman in this conservative country. Many people would judge without knowing the whole story. Many will throw hurtful words after seeing a blurry picture. And so, Leila’s reputation would undoubtedly take a hit. Though Leila’s image is not as clean as Ayla’s, she still has a dignity she has to protect. Leila and Phyllis shared another round of Korean fried chicken while watching a movie. The moment that Phyllis pressed upload, the two cozily sat on the bean bag and ordered chicken. “Aren’t you going to check the video engagement?” Asked Leila as she dipped the cheese-coated chicken on the truffle dip.Phyllis shook her head as she savored the juicy chicken that she dipped in the sour cream dip. “It’s fine. I’m sure Taylor already gave his instructions to the influencers that he found.”Leila pondered on the approach that they ma

Chapter 82: Keep Everything Professional

The man has a sweet and clean look. His beard was cleanly shaved, revealing his smooth and chiseled jaw. Though his gaze was still as dark as she remembered, he certainly looked different from the man she met a month ago. “Taylor? Why are you here?”Leila stood at the side of their table, unwilling to sit beside Taylor. This was the first time that she saw him again after their deal. Though they talk about business, it never circles back to the flirtatious conversation they had before. And so seeing him right now is awkward for Leila. Taylor smiled. “I was invited by Zach, Lei. Why don’t you sit down?”Leila darted a sharp gaze at Cassiel, “Can I sit beside you, Cass? I missed you so I want to catch up.”Unable to sense the awkward atmosphere between Leila and Taylor, Cassiel smiled. “Sure!”“Zach, move to the other side so Lei can sit with me.”Zacharias, who was silently watching them, smirked. “I’m really comfortable in my seat here. I don’t want to move.”“Lei, you can sit now.

Chapter 83: Don’t Lack Beds To Climb On

Leila went to the parking lot after a quick catch-up with Cassiel and Zacharias. During the entire dinner, Taylor did not speak after asking that question. She was a little bothered because it’s not how he usually acts. However, she noticed that he was busy with his phone. This time, she did not feel curious about what he was doing. ‘Out of sight out of mind.’She repeated that phrase over and over inside her head as she walked towards her car which was parked in the hotel’s dark basement. She tends to overthink everything that she sees or hears, so she has always had a hard time dealing with this. This reminder is greatly effective in directing her focus on important matters. ‘My head’s spinning a little… Can I even drive home?’This was the first time that she was unwinding after more than a month of her social media break. She’s also aware that her sugar baby—slash-mistress allegations would never disappear immediately, especially since the source of that rumor is still unaffecte

Chapter 84: Breathtaking

“AHHHH!!!!”“AH!!!!”“STOP!!!”“PLEASE!!!”In an underground room, a man tied up on a metal chair with a blindfold covering his eyes desperately pleaded for mercy. His body was covered in sweat and blood from the cruel torture he endured. “Sir, please… I beg you!!! Stop!! I will speak! I will speak!!”“Take off his blindfold.”Someone then snatched the blindfold off of his face. And in front of him, he saw a man casually seated with his legs crossed. Because of the dark room, he could only see the lower part of his face. His face covered with stubbles looked rugged and masculine. A small smile curled up on the man’s lips as he heard his screams. His demanding yet lax aura completely dominated the dark room. Even with his smiling face and calm voice, none of the men inside could tell what was on his mind. “It was a family from Lieren City!”“I know that. I was asking, who in that d*mned family hired you?” He calmly asked. The poor man’s lips trembled, unable to utter another word.

Chapter 85: Careless

Despite the heart-stopping procession of the bride, the wedding ceremony went smoothly. Phyllis was now happily chatting with the groom’s friends. The member of the boy band, Luna seemed to get along well with Phyllis. “Lei, Phyllis is so cool… I want to be closer to her. She’s just like her twin, Phylian.”Leila sipped on her fourth glass of red wine. “Of course, they’re twins.”“Phylian has a snarky personality, but Phyllis is more gentle than him. I think that’s the main difference.” Cassiel described the twins with much careful thought. Leila glanced at Phylian, who was lecturing his twin’s husband, Zacharias. In her eyes, the twins have the same personality. She witnessed both their grumpy and gentle sides, so she knows full well that they are the same kind of person. They’re twins with a kind and loving heart. Once the flames burn for a person, they will never fade. “You’ll see that they’re the same kind of person once you get to know them.”Cassiel’s eyes focused on Phylian

Chapter 86: Arsonist

“Come to think of it, why are you still here in my room, Taylor?”At the dining table, a sumptuous spread of Japanese food was served. It was already midnight and Leila and Taylor were eating their dinner this late. “Can’t I eat here? Besides, I was the one who suggested to eat, so why can’t I be here?”Leila observed Taylor’s casual attitude towards her. It was as if they never ignored each other for the past few months. While she understood that the past months had been so hard for everyone, she just could not understand how he disappeared and appeared out of the blue like a ghost. Eon’s kidnapping case was something that his family chose to keep under wraps. And she’s sure that Taylor has a fair share of hands on it. Whenever she asks Rui about it, her friend just assures her that Chase and Taylor are taking care of it. ‘It seems having his help on the arson case was a good move for me.’“Leila?”“Hmmm?”“We found the arsonist.”Leila froze. “Really?”She wasn’t in any way well-

Chapter 87: Knows Her Designs Best

“Miss, do you have an invitation?”In the poshly decorated events hall of Shang Hotel in Lieren City, several people were waiting to be seated inside for the first couture collection of Ayla Parker Couture. Leila took off her sunglasses before passing the invitation to the usherette. “Here you go.”“Ah! Miss Leila! Let me guide you to your seat.”As the half-sister of the designer, she was escorted to the front-row seat. She has the best view of the entire runway. Her seat was designated between her father and his wife, who were already comfortably seated. “Can you find me a different seat? I don’t want to sit beside them.”“Leila, stop making a scene and just sit.” Her father, Allen, sternly said. “That’s right, Leila. The show is about to start, so why don’t you sit beside us, dear?” Ayla’s mother, Andrea, sweetly patted the chair beside her, urging Leila to sit down. “I don’t want to sit here. Move me elsewhere.”Her cold and expressionless face intimidated the usherette. Leila

Chapter 88: Copyright

Leila stared at Ayla who just received a round of applause as she walked the runway with her models following her.“Thank you… Thank you everyone…”“It feels surreal to see my creations coming to life like this. I am so happy that I got to share them with everyone like this.”“This is my proudest moment as a designer.”“To my family, I thank you for giving me the support and nudge that I needed. I have always been struggling to find the style that resonates with my entire being. The love you gave me filled me with so much inspiration.”“And to my sister, Leila… I look up to you all my life. Thank you for inspiring me with your art.”Ayla’s tearjerker speech made everyone feel for her. Everyone was in awe at the sight of the magnificent creations that Ayla presented. Each piece of dress tells a story that every person in the room can feel from the collection. “Amazing work, Ayla!”“Wooh! I knew you would succeed in this industry!”“Congratulations, Ayla!”Joyous cheers from the guests

Chapter 89: Lay low

Feeling lifeless, she slumped on her swivel chair. Her sketchbook was gone. All her new pieces were sketched in a notebook that can be digitally transferred to her iPad via an app. It was a sketchbook that Phyllis gifted to her. It was a notebook that could digitally transfer notes and sketches to an app that could be downloaded on any device. Though it’s not new in the market, Phyllis and her team were developing their version of it. “How can I prove that they stole my sketchbook?”“Hmmm…”She then opened her iPad that was placed on her table. She quickly went to the app connected to the digital sketchbook that was stolen. She wasn’t able to check it often since she already has exported her initial sketches and made another copy to be copyrighted and compiled. What Ayla has with her is the initial sketches which are not as detailed as the final design render that she has with her. She checked the sketches on file. “It was no wonder why they looked a little lacking. But still, it’

Chapter 90: Releasing It First

A good week has passed since Ayla’s first collection was released and her business was already booming. Her studio was filled with clients who wanted to commission her for a piece. Most of the clients were there to get the runway pieces or something similar to her design. “Miss Ayla, can we take a picture with you?” A fan shyly asked Ayla who just finished a consultation with a client. In her cozy studio, the runway pieces from her first collection were displayed in a row of beautiful mannequins. The interior design of her studio is a minimalist style with a neutral color palette. The aesthetic of her studio is different from the vibe that her designs were giving. “Sure!” Ayla enthusiastically posed with the fan. “Thank you! I’m such a huge fan!”Ayla warmly smiled at her fan and continued to cater to her clients. Since she is a famous social media personality who has a huge following, a lot of her fans visited her studio to schedule a consultation with her. Though they can most d
