Charlotte’s lips parted, stunned by Mandy’s words. “Pause the design? Mandy, we can’t do that. The necklace is almost done. It’s in the final stage. Production is scheduled to start in fifteen days. If we stop now, we’ll fall behind by a month.”

Mandy didn’t even flinch. “And?”

Charlotte frowned. “That means we’ll miss our release date.”

Mandy gave a calm smile. “This is BLAQ. We don’t chase trends, we set them. When we’re ready, we release. If we’re not? No one dares to complain.”

Charlotte opened her mouth again, but Mandy raised her hand slightly, her focus back on the identical sketches.

“This design isn’t secure anymore. You understand what that means? It’s exposed. How can two people, one from inside our company and one from outside, have the exact same drawing of this necklace?”

Charlotte let out a quiet breath, her eyes narrowing a little.

"I know her," she said finally, her voice almost a whisper but sharp enough to catch attention.

Mandy blinked, turning to her. "What?"

    When the wrapping was finally done and handed to her, Alina stood up, ready to leave. She was adjusting her bag strap when one of the boutique assistants hurried over with a small box in hand."Ma’am," she said politely, "this was left for you."Alina blinked in surprise staring at the small box before stretching her hand to accept it. "From who, please?"The cashier, standing nearby, smiled. "A long distance friend. She said to tell you she’s rooting for you and wishes you the best in your wedding."Alina’s brows furrowed slightly. "A long distance friend?"The assistant nodded.She turned the box in her hand curiously, “I wonder who it could be," she murmured.Still, she gave a small smile. "Thank you," she said, nodding at both the cashier and the assistant before heading outside."Home or the family house?" Jesse asked."Home. I need to drop these items,”Jesse opened the car door for her, and she stepped in, placing the box on her lap. The engine started, and soon they were drivi

    The next morning, Alina’s hand reached out to the other side of the bed, only to find it empty. Her brows furrowed lightly, and she slipped out from under the sheets, moving across the floor until she stepped into the sitting room.The whole Blackwood family sat together, and right in the center was Mandy.Aiden’s head turned the instant she appeared. His eyes softened, a smile appearing on his lips as he stood. He walked over to her quietly, pressing a kiss against her forehead."You’re awake," he muttered.Alina nodded, her lips curling faintly. Gently, Aiden guided her forward, seating her beside him."Good morning," she greeted softly, and the family responded warmly.Mandy’s eyes rested on Alina for a while before she stood up and moved to sit beside her, wrapping her arms tightly around Alina."I’ll miss you," she whispered... "It was great knowing you, Alina. It’s just so sad I’ll be gone for a while."Alina blinked, pulling back slightly. "You’re traveling?"Mandy nodded slowl

    Jessica staggered back, her hands shaking as her face turned pale. Tears blurred her vision, and before anyone could stop her, she reached for her phone with trembling fingers."Doctor Craig… please, come right now," she choked out, her voice almost breaking. "I want you to check on Mandy… please hurry."Mandy shook her head weakly from where she sat. "I already told you all I aborted the baby… since the day I discovered the truth. There's nothing to find out." She muttered in tears.Jessica and the others entered the room fully, walking towards Mandy who still had tears in her eyes.Her father’s face hardened. "We get it… but you still have to be checked. I need to know you’re fine, princess. Need to know that there's nothing wrong with you. Terminating a pregnancy isn't a small thing."She said nothing after that. Her lips pressed together as her tears continued, but Aiden leaned down close, his voice softer than anyone expected."Don’t cry anymore," he whispered. "You’re not alone.

    The room was silent except for Mandy’s sobs. She had her hands over her face as tears poured endlessly.Jessica was the first to move. She rushed forward, her trembling hands reaching for Mandy, kneeling down beside her."My baby," she whispered, voice breaking. "It's okay...alright?" She added but all Mandy could do was cry.Jessica helped her stand upright but her tears still kept falling."Mom..." She cried."What's happening? What's that video about? You're..."Mandy shook her head quickly, but no words came. Her throat burned with every sob, her chest heaving with shame.Jessica’s arms wrapped around her, but even in her mother’s arms, Mandy felt exposed under everyone’s eyes.Grandma let out a soft breath. “Let her be, Jessica… She’ll explain. Just let her calm down first.”Mandy’s sobs eased a little. She lowered her hands, her puffy eyes shifting nervously around the room. Every look seemed to cut through her—Jessica’s hurt, Jason’s silent shock, Alina’s gentle concern… and th

    Unable to respond, Mandy turned her head away and looked out the window, silent tears streaming down her cheeks.Zayn pulled out his phone and dialed a number. His assistant picked up immediately."You know where I am, right?" he said curtly. "Come over and drive Mandy’s car back to her place.”"Huh?" Mike’s confused voice came through the speaker, but Zayn cut him off."Also, find that video online. Take it down immediately. I don’t care what you have to do...just erase it.""Wait, what video and who’s in the vid..."The call ended before Mike could finish.Sliding his phone away, Zayn leaned closer to Mandy and carefully fastened her seatbelt. His fingers brushed lightly against her arm, and she shivered. Her red, puffy eyes blinked up at him."Why… why are you helping me?" she whispered.Zayn said nothing. He sat upright, gripped the steering wheel, and started the car.The silence between them was heavy but Mandy felt just a little less alone now.*****At the Blackwood mansion,

    Mandy shook her head violently, refusing to believe what was happening. Her trembling hands reached out to grab the phone from Aurora, desperate to stop her, but Aurora shoved her away with ease. Mandy stumbled backward, landing on the floor. Though the pain wasn’t much, it pierced her pride. She pressed her lips tightly together, refusing to let her tears spill, refusing to cry in front of them.Aurora smirked, her fingers hovering over the screen."I’m posting it," she announced triumphantly.Just as she was about to hit the button, a strong hand gripped her wrist and everyone turned at once. Zayn stood there, his expression cold, unreadable, his presence making everyone go still."Zayn?" Aurora blinked, confused. "Why are you stopping me? Isn’t this what you wanted? For everyone to see her downfall?"Without answering, Zayn tightened his grip, forcing her hand down until the phone slipped from her fingers and clattered to the floor. Gasps erupted from the group. But before Mandy co
