"She’s my friend."

Thomas didn’t scold Reese in front of everyone. Though anger simmered beneath the surface, he decided to wait until the birthday party was over to deal with it.

Glancing around at the others still standing in the lobby, he asked, "Didn’t I already get the hall ready? Why aren’t any of you inside?"

"I thought I was getting Vienna Hall! Why did it end up being Florence Hall instead?" Reese pouted with obvious discontent.

"You really need to start using your brain."

Thomas threw the words over his shoulder and strode off toward Florence Hall without another word.

Reese was left standing there, humiliated. Did her uncle seriously just say that to her—in public?

I didn’t know you’d be coming!”Thomas held a bouquet of flowers in one hand, his voice cool and even. “If I didn’t come, how else would I witness such a lovely scene? Quite the temper, Miss Harris.”“Heh... no, no, it’s just a misunderstanding. I was just trying to give the models some direction. They didn’t follow instructions and made mistakes during the show…”Zora hurried to explain, trying to salvage her image. She then looked at the flowers in his hand with feigned delight. “Oh—are those for me?”She reached out for them, but Thomas didn't hand them over. “T

    “Get lost!”Wendy was beyond words at this point. She shot her brother a desperate look. “Simon! Do something! He’s driving me crazy!”Simon turned to Benjamin. “Why are you still bothering my sister? Didn’t you say she wasn’t your type? That even if someone gave her to you, you wouldn’t take her?”Benjamin immediately regretted ever saying that. He threw his arm around Simon and leaned his head against his shoulder like a clingy child.“Bro, don’t be so mean! Yeah, I said she wasn’t my type… but what I meant to say was—she’s my sweet tooth! My cotton candy! I can’t go a day without her!”Simon: “...”Wendy: “...”Both siblings were thoroughly grossed out by Benjamin’s over-the-top behavior.&nb

Inside, Molly was already directing the models' makeup and prep. The garments had arrived, and the models were starting to change.“Thank you for everything, Molly,” Caitlin said with heartfelt gratitude. None of her shows would be this flawless without Molly’s unwavering support.“Thank me? Please. Helping you is helping myself,” Molly replied, pulling Caitlin over. “Come check the makeup. Tell me if we need to adjust anything.”The two women got to work, deep in the flow of last-minute preparations.Meanwhile, in Main Hall 7—the largest hall in the exhibition center—guests were pouring in.

    Zeke stared Samir down, eyes burning, but said nothing. Samir turned his head, his voice low and icy."Zeke, listen carefully," he said."The boss has known from the start that you're not his biological son. He knew before you were even born.I am his real son. His blood runs in my veins.Well? Shocking enough for you?"A twisted, triumphant smile spread across Samir’s face.Zeke’s eyes widened in disbelief. Then he shook his head furiously. "That’s impossible! Who are you trying to fool?""Why would I lie to you?" Samir scoffed. "Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day? I’ve lived my life in the shadows as the illegitimate son. Only after the boss completely gave up on you could I finally rise."Zeke’s eyes flickered.

Zorro would have no choice but to fight back," Sebastian analyzed, trying to understand the unfolding events."And now," he added, "the only way to get accurate intel from Graystone is through Zeke. Xero can monitor the situation from the outside, but he can’t infiltrate the core.""I already tried messaging Zeke," Caitlin said, holding up her backup phone. "No response. I’m starting to worry—what if something’s already happened to him?""Give it a little more time," Sebastian said gently. "There’s a war going on over there. He’s probably overwhelmed.""But if our plan ended up triggering internal conflict in S Country, it’s the innocent people who will suffer the most," Caitlin said, her heart heavy. "This c
