Chapter 61 ~ Wild Rumours

Kai burst into Easton’s office, his face pale, and a tablet clutched tightly in his hand. “You need to see this,” he said, his voice tight with urgency.Easton, still shrugging off his coat from their recent trip, sighed heavily. He had hoped the chaos would have calmed by now. Instead, he wished they had never returned. He snatched the tablet from Kai and pressed play.The video showed Alison Kane—disheveled, tears streaking her face—speaking directly into the camera. “They threatened me,” she sobbed. “I don’t feel safe. If anything happens to me, it won’t be an accident.”The video ended, leaving a tense silence in the room. Easton’s jaw clenched as Kai leaned over to point at the tablet. “It’s everywhere, sir. The comments are… bad. Really bad.”“Why? What are they saying?” Easton sat down and threaded his fingers together. “It's like someone is intentionally drawing the attention to Miss Frost.” Kai pushed his glasses forward. “I expected that,” Easton responded as he opened t

Chapter 62 ~ Twitch of hope

“Are you sure this is the place?” Aria asked, her voice laced with skepticism as she glanced around the dimly lit hallway. Scarlet clutched her old phone tightly in one hand while gripping Aria’s hand with the other. The building was far from reassuring—cracked walls, flickering lights, and an unmistakable smell of mildew filled the air. “This is the address,” Scarlet murmured, her eyes scanning the peeling numbers on the apartment doors. “It has to be.” “Where the fuck did you find such a creepy place? We could have just asked your man to work some magic.” “Then I wouldn't be helping. I want this to be his gift before the event in two days.”“I doubt he'll get it. Our body parts might be possible.” Aria commented, making Scarlet shake her head.“You're overreacting. It's going to be okay.” Aria huffed, pulling her jacket tighter around her. “The things I do for you, woman. Seriously, if this turns into some horror movie scene, I’m not running. I’ll just fall and die then hun

Chapter 63 ~ A tribute

Scarlet’s eyes locked on the picture frame, her hand trembling as she picked it up. “What?” Her mouth opened in shock. It was like seeing a ghost come to life. The woman in the photo smiled warmly, her face so familiar it made Scarlet’s chest ache. Her breath quickened, her heart pounding in disbelief.They had met in their usual meeting spot to finalize the designs for the show, which was two days away. Scarlet felt fatigued, so she began walking around the room to watch the designs she didn't get a chance to see. However, seeing the woman in the picture was beyond her wildest dreams. She remembered her face so clearly. The beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair. She was like an angel walking the face of the earth. Scarlet blinked a few times wondering if she had just imagined it.“Easton…” she whispered, barely able to get the words out. “Where did you get this?”Easton looked up from the desk, instantly noticing the change in her tone. His brow furrowed in concern as he approached h

Chapter 64 ~ Jealous

“You've done a great job so far.” Amanda praised as Scarlet sat in her office. It was now one day before the main event and Amanda had called Scarlet over to her office. As she walked in, she had her heart in her throat so hearing the most strict manager praise threw her off and she was taken aback.But she couldn't deny the fact that it felt good that all her hard work didn't go unnoticed because if there was something Easton had done since she joined the company, it was giving her hell and made her work like a donkey. He had stopped abruptly but that didn't erase the harsh memory she had.“Thank you. Though I must say I'm a little nervous.” Scarlet brushed the strand of hair behind her ear. Amanda, ever so poised and controlled, gave her a small nod, “That's normal. But seeing how well you've done despite the challenges that kept coming, I must say I'm impressed by you and Easton made the right choice.” “Thank you.” Scarlet smiled, not knowing what else to say. Amanda nodded and

Chapter 65 ~ Code X

“He's busy, I'm afraid” Kai responded, not even bothering to look up from his computer. Jade fumed, “When he marries me, your ass is the first one I'll fire!” She stomped past him and opened Easton's office.Kai laughed as he watched her walk away angrily. Easton hadn't given any restrictions but he couldn't help but provoke her. It was his cup of tea. Jade had been restless the entire time since Dante left. She couldn't even bring herself to ask her father for help because he would surely not give her any peace. After her calls went unanswered, she decided to visit his office and check if he knew about what she had done. “Hi, Easton.” She smiled brightly as she stepped forward. Easton didn't look up from his computer where he was typing away. “Hi.” He responded flatly. Jade waited and waited but when she saw that he wouldn't speak to her, she blurted out, “I just... I can’t shake the guilt,” Jade began her voice shaking as she stopped pacing and turned to face him.Easton loo

Chapter 66 ~ Setting you free

Scarlet groaned in frustration, pacing the living room as she clutched her hair. “What am I going to do? Everything is ruined! And now I have no shield, no proof, nothing!” Her voice cracked as she stopped in her tracks, staring blankly at the wall.Fixing that phone was her only chance at clearing her name and now it wasn't looking so bright. She felt so disappointed for being unable to gift Easton with that Proof because she knew how much it would mean to him. Jasmine, noticing her mother's tension as she sat cross-legged on the couch with her favorite huge doll Easton bought her frowned slightly. Her big, innocent eyes followed her mother’s every move. “Mommy?” she said softly, her small voice cutting through Scarlet’s frantic thoughts.Scarlet turned to her, trying to mask her despair with a forced smile. “What is it, sweetie?”Jasmine slid off the couch and padded over to her, wrapping her little arms around Scarlet’s waist. “Don’t be sad, Mommy. I love you.”Scarlet’s chest

Chapter 67 ~ Leave her with me

Scarlet’s breath held as she stared at Easton in shock. “Why?”He stepped forward, a sad smile on his face. “The contract was meant to punish you. To keep you close while I figured out whether you were involved in Micheal’s accident. But now...” He tilted his head, his gaze never leaving hers. “Now I feel like I was unfair to you and for that I'm sorry.”Scarlet raised a brow, crossing her arms despite the nervous fluttering in her chest. “And how do you know I’m not?” she teased, trying to mask the tension in her voice.Easton’s lips twitched in amusement, and he closed the gap between them in a single, confident stride. He leaned down, his face mere inches from hers, his voice dropping to a near whisper.“Because, Scarlet,” he murmured, his hand gently brushing a strand of hair from her cheek, “I know everything.”Before she could respond, he captured her lips in a slow, deliberate kiss. Scarlet’s eyes widened in shock before her body betrayed her, her hands instinctively grippi

Chapter 68 ~ Scape goat

“You cracked a bit too early. I was starting to enjoy hitting you.” A smile stretched Scarlet's lips as she leaned back In the chair. She sat across from Lillian, her posture relaxed yet the air tense. Lilian was shocked to see this side of Scarlet.She tilted her head, letting her gaze sweep over Lillian's bloody and bruised face. A smirk tugged at her lips as she leaned forward, her voice dripping with disdain. “You think Jade gives a shit about you?” Scarlet began her tone sharp and cutting. “Whatever she promised you—it was a lie. You ruined a dead woman’s legacy, all for what? To prove some sick loyalty? You’re pathetic, Lillian. No scratch that. You're full of shit.” Lillian flinched at the venom in Scarlet’s words, but Scarlet wasn’t done. “And let me swear something to you. The moment you step into that jail, she will have you killed. Just like Alison went. Maybe you’ll get lucky and it’ll be poison.” Scarlet laughed, a cold, hollow sound that sent chills down Lillian’s

Chapter 69 ~ D day

The day finally arrived. The venue was buzzing with anticipation as Easton escorted Scarlet to her seat. Important people from various businesses, top models, billionaires e.t.c were all present for the biggest fashion show of the century. A number of media houses were stationed outside as only a few were given access to the main event. Scarlet walked in wearing a striking red jumpsuit that turned every head in the room. The outfit was bold yet elegant, with a fitted top that dipped into a deep neckline, balanced by delicate beadwork running down the sides. The legs of the jumpsuit flared just enough to graze her gold stiletto heels. Her hair was swept into a loose bun, with soft curls escaping to frame her face, giving her a relaxed yet classy look. She kept her accessories simple—a pair of gold earrings and a sleek bracelet that complemented the outfit perfectly. Scarlet looked effortlessly powerful, her outfit a perfect reflection of her confidence and creativity as a desig

Chapter 70 ~ A savior from the brink

Henry kept his gaze where his son was standing. Too stunned to speak. He knew Easton was angry with him and blamed him for his mother's death, but he was never disrespectful to him.Worse off, he couldn't do anything about it because he blamed himself too. “I've never seen such hatred in his eyes, and believe me, he has always looked at me with hatred since she passed.” He whispered, knowing Amanda was now standing behind him.“Give him time, and you need to apologize. Stop provoking him with every chance you get.” Amanda pointed out.Henry ran a hand down his face, feeling defeated and not knowing what to say. “Come on. Scarlet it about to give a speech.” Henry nodded as he walked back to his seat, where Jade was typing furiously on her phone. The moment she saw Henry, she looked up with a fake smile on her face. Henry, having too much on his mind, didn't even acknowledge her as he took his seat. Back behind the curtains, a nervous Scarlet was moving back and forth, trying to c
