All traces of vacancy had been scrubbed away, leaving the space feeling vibrant and lived-in once more."Hello, Dad," Nathan said as he stepped inside, nodding toward Peter, who sat

Bella looked up and gasped in surprise, "Whitney?""Yes, that's me," Whitney replied with a grin."Oh my god," Bella muttered as she stood up and hugged her.Whitney smiled, returning the hug tightly."I didn’t think I was going to see you so soon after the last project," Bella said, pulling back slightly but still holding her arm."Yeah, I’m only here for today, though. I dropped by to see Elliot," Whitney responded as she stepped back."Oh, wow! Then we better catch up," Bella said excitedly, turning toward Ava. "Whitney, meet Ava, my best friend. Ava, this is Whitney, the best PR manager in the industry."Whitney chuckled, waving Bella off,"Bella does a bit of exaggeration sometimes. Nice to meet you," she said, extending her hand toward Ava with a friendly smile.Ava stood up and smiled, taking Whitney’s hand. "Tell me about it. Nice to meet you too," she replied warmly."Are you guys ganging up on me?" Bella teased with a playful grin."Of course not," Whitney and Ava responded i

Daphne was silent for a few seconds before she said, “Well, it’s personal.”"I thought you said the SPARK designer was coming." Bella said.Daphne's brow rose up, clearly showing how pissed she was, and before she could respond, Elliot stepped in.“Okay then, we best start the meeting then,” Elliot said.“Yes, I’ll get everyone down here and speed up the team,” Mick said and walked away.“We are not supposed to start for another fifteen minutes, right?” Bella asked.“Yes, but we can make do so Daphne can get to her meeting,” Elliot replied.“Would you like to join the meeting?” Elliot asked Whitney“Naah, I’ve seen your face; now I can go rest at my hotel,” Whitney replied.“Okay, I’ll catch you there later,” Elliot replied with a smile."Bella, you too,” Whitney turned back to say, adding, “Nice to meet you, Ava.”“Sure,” Bella replied, waving as Whitney left.“We’ve got a lot to do; are we going to stand here all day?” Daphne askedBella and Ava rolled their eyes and went back to the

Peter Crawford waited for the others to leave, pacing, patiently waiting for Kim to leave them too.“Do you have something you wish to say?” Timothy asked“Yes, I do. Can you please leave us, Mr. Kim?” Peter asked.“Definitely, I’ll be in my office down the hall,” Kim replied, closing his suitcase and walking out of the room.“Let’s hear it,” Timothy said with a careless wave of his hand."Father, you need to reconsider your decision,” Peter said, adding, “You don’t have the strength to continue running everything, father. Why did you change your mind?”“Nothing; I just want to keep things as they are for now,” Timothy responded.“You were supposed to return to work for just a period of time. Putting the succession on hold simply means you want to continue working, or does this have to do with what Tyler did?” Peter asked.“Are you concerned about me or your sons?” Timothy asked with raised brows"Father, don’t say that; you know I’m concerned about you, and we both know since the acc

Ava looked at Elliot, then at Bella, who shook her head at her, trying to dissuade her from speaking.Ava could feel the eyes of everyone in the room on her, but it didn't get to her."Can we get on with this meeting?" Daphne's sharp voice pierced through the silence; her eyes narrowed in disdain.She sat in her chair like a queen, her cold expression daring anyone to challenge her."We don't have all day Ava," Elliot said, his voice calm but encouraging, giving her a small, supportive smile.Before Ava could respond, Bella quickly interjected, "Okay, why don't I step in and—""I said," Ava interrupted, standing up as she added, "What is the unique selling point?" Her eyes locked on Daphne as she continued, "All that is listed is unique, sure, but nothing screams at me or grabs my attention."Daphne's eyebrows shot up, her lips curling into a sneer as she said, "And what exactly do you know about fashion to say all that?" her voice filled with mockery, adding, "We aren't making clothe
