North almost laughed.Her? Apologize?She calmly sipped at her coffee with a look of confusion. “Are you very famous, Mr. Carter?”Johnny replied pridefully, “Of course I am—”“How many awards have you won? Do you have any mind-blowing works? How many exhibitions have you had? What is the greatest achievement of your career?”Johnny’s face turned a deeper shade of red with every question North asked.Finally, she cocked her head sideways and said, “As far as I know, you don’t have an answer for any of the questions I asked. In that case, it’s obvious you’re not some big shot. What’s wrong with my inability to recognize you, then?”She was right. If a designer had never won any awards or produced neither a noteworthy work nor held an exhibition… Then was it so strange that other people could not recognize him?Household name designers were at least as good as Leon Sullivan or Star. Who was Johnny Carter compared to them?Johnny was so angry he fumed. He could not say a word.N

Fifty thousand dollars a project, and no customizations? Even Star herself would never have dared to do this.“Has anyone bought one of Mr. Carter’s designs before?” North pretended to ask curiously.Johnny scoffed. “Their identities are too important for me to reveal to you.”“So, they’re classified? That’s a shame. I wanted to get to know them,” North sighed. “After all, it’s hard to find people this gullible nowadays.”Johnny choked on his own spit, but he could not say a word. His face turned crimson.It was true that no one bought his designs… But it did not matter! What right did a country girl like North have to look down on him?“Y-You… I can’t design anything for someone like you. Goodbye, Ms. Nelly!” Johnny began storming outside angrily, but Nelly hastily caught up to him. “Please don’t be mad, Mr. Carter. North, that was out of line! How could you say that? Apologize to Mr. Carter, please. Where are you going to get another designer if he turns the job down?”“When

From the sketches to the handwriting, all ten blueprints were definitely Leon Sullivan’s work.Nelly’s face fell immediately.North did not care what they were thinking, so she smiled slowly. “I’m sorry, Ms. Nelly. It’s not that I don’t want you to help. I just have a better option. After all, it’s hard to even look at Mr. Carter twice if I already have Leon Sullivan, am I right?”Johnny’s face quickly turned red. He looked like he was about to blow up, but he had no choice but to suppress his anger.Even though he wanted to protest, North was, unfortunately, right.Nelly’s hands balled into fists.Why?! Why did Leon, someone of such high status that he even rejected the Princess of Ylesir, agree to give North ten different designs?!“N-North, I didn’t think you’d—”“I’m only here today to ask you to help me pick a ring, Ms. Nelly,” North interrupted her with a barely noticeable smile. “After all, you offered to help me. Is that offer still on the table?”She had thrown Nelly’

She put the blueprints away and got up nonchalantly, “Thank you for your suggestions, Ms. Nelly. Your coffee’s on me. Do come to my wedding when the time comes.”With that, North headed straight out.Nelly was shocked. That b*tch!She was so enraged that her face and ears were red. She could not wait to get rid of North!Meanwhile, Connor had been watching from the sidelines. He was speechless.Gerald was worried North would get bullied? It was already a miracle if she did not bully someone else!…Over at Royal Sights Residences, North arrived in a good mood. She wanted to tell Gerald what had happened at the cafe.However, Gerald was on the phone with someone, and she could only hear bits and pieces.The caller was a man with a stern voice. “Don’t spoil her, Gerald. If Nelly’s causing trouble in the country, let North take care of it herself.”Gerald looked up to glance at North before nodding in the phone’s direction. “Okay.”“I’ll be coming back in a few days. I’ve alrea

Downstairs, Gerald could not resist smiling when he saw the carefully thought-out text.North was such a polite woman. She even thanked Leon.Too bad Leon was up to no good.With his slender fingers, Gerald typed out another text and sent it.[How are things going for the wedding dress? Are you designing it yourself, or do you want me to do it?]Upstairs, North was stunned to receive the message.As if the rings were not enough, Leon wanted to design her wedding dress too?Was this her lucky day?But she had already asked for his help with the rings, so she did not want to get greedy.[It’s fine, Mr. Leon…]Leon replied almost instantly. [Since you always call me Mr. Leon so respectfully, I want to do everything I can. I haven’t designed clothing in ages, so consider it wish fulfillment for myself, okay?]North’s hands trembled, and she felt lightheaded. Excited, she replied without thinking: [Alright. Thank you, Mr. Leon.]“Thank you, Mr. Leon”?Gerald stared at the four

She read Leon’s question again. What did she think about her husband?What else could she think?!Irked, North typed furiously. [He’s an unfaithful ladies’ man!]When Gerald’s phone beeped and he saw the text, he stood abruptly and slammed his teacup onto the table, making an unpleasant noise.North was already pent up with rage, so she immediately looked up and snapped, “What are you doing?”Gerald said nothing. A ladies’ man? Unfaithful?Gerald took a deep breath and began typing. [Really… But I don’t think Gerald’s that kind of man.]North felt like someone had just knocked some sense into her. Shoot, how could she have forgotten? Leon was friends with Gerald!She began thinking fast and called Leon by his first name. [You never know what someone’s really like, Leon. Even though I married rich, I have no one to rely on or trust. I can barely do anything in this dog-eat-dog world of rich people. I’m so fragile and helpless…]Gerald gripped his teacup so hard that he almost s

In the end, North still went upstairs to change.Downstairs, Gerald acted fast. “Call Mason and tell him I don’t want the extra 2% anymore.”“Mr. Gerald?” Connor asked, shocked.He did not want them anymore? Gerald used to put the company’s profits first no matter what. When did he ever act with such… pettiness?Gerald instructed his driver to start the car. Then, he said, “Tell Nelly I’ll be at her house in half an hour.”After North got back from the cafe, Connor had told him that not only did North avoid getting bullied, but Nelly was the one who got humiliated the whole time. She also seemed to be in a good mood.That was why he agreed when Mason offered to give him that 2%. He thought the extra profits would make a decent allowance for North.But he did not expect North to be this sad about it.She told neither him nor Connor about it, but she told Leon.Why was that? Because from her perspective, Leon was someone who would never appear in real life.If she did not have

Nelly paled, and her lips trembled as she took a deep breath. “Gerald… What’s the meaning of this? I really was just kidding at Dew Garden. Besides, it’s been almost a day now. Do you really still care—”“I’m not talking about the incident at Dew Garden. You know that,” Gerald said calmly. “Johnny Carter’s been driven out of the design industry. That was the price he had to pay. What about you?”Nelly finally lost her composure.How dare North, that b*tch, complain about her?!“Gerald, I don’t know what North told you, but it really was an accident that I found Johnny Carter. I didn’t know he was that type of person,” Nelly replied anxiously, as if she was genuinely innocent. “I didn’t know Leon had already made some designs for North, so I was sincerely trying to help.“Wedding rings are so important that the more famous the designer, the higher North’s status would be. I was worried other people would say she wasn’t a good match for you so in my haste…”Nelly’s words could have

Nelly’s fingernails were digging into the flesh of her palm.She needed to endure this… She had been hasty, and it was not the right time yet. Enduring the humiliation was her only option!So, Nelly squeezed out a smile. “Understood, Gerald.”Then, she looked at North. “I really am sorry, North. I promise that this will not happen again. I really do consider you a friend.”North raised an eyebrow. She did not know Nelly was such an adaptable person.Since Gerald got what he wanted, he took North’s hand and led her away.As soon as she got into the car and settled down, she heard him ask, “Do you feel better?”North gulped. “What do you mean? Did you really think bullying your childhood friend would make me feel better? Am I really that petty to you?”Gerald said nothing. Instead, he gave her a pointed look that said everything he wanted to say.That stare made North blush. She had the feeling that he saw through her. Wait, Leon was still… She quickly took out her phone.Wor

When North clicked on the message, it read: [That’s the same reason as Gerald’s. He fell in love with you at first sight.]North suddenly felt an overwhelming dizziness. It was like a brick had fallen from the sky to hit her on the head. She could barely see straight and gripped her phone tightly.Gerald fell in love with her at first sight?! How did Leon know that?Did he guess it, or did he ask Gerald about it?After getting over her shock, she felt a strange shyness rise within her.The man she was talking to was twenty whole years older. Talking about love with someone that old always gave her a weird feeling.North took a deep breath and tried to make herself sound cheerful. [Thanks. I didn’t know you still cared about things like this at such an old age, my friend.]Gerald’s expression turned stony as he almost crushed his phone in his grip.“Such an old age”? Who was she calling old?!North shot him a weird look. Wasn’t Gerald in a good mood? Why was he looking upset ag
