What she said to change the subject sounded like an awkward attempt to make herself look good, and it came off a bit embarrassing.

And sure enough, when Cosmo heard it, he paused for a moment before smirking with sarcasm. “Sounds like he thinks a bit too highly of you.”

Eloise was used to harsh words, but she still couldn’t help but feel annoyed. She couldn’t stop herself from snapping back, “Cosmo, you’re an educated and respected man. If you can’t treat me warmly, at least show me a little respect. There’s no need to always be so sharp with your words.”

At first, it seemed like she wanted to drop the conversation, but Eloise went on. “I know you don’t like me, but I never asked to marry you or carry the title of Mrs. Dominguez! Or do you think I’m weak, and I’m the only one you can take it out on?”

Her frustration and resentment spilled out one after another, but Cosmo didn’t belittle her.

“Weak? I only said a few words and you shot back ten, half of them defensive. So who’s really

    Eloise felt a little hot when he took a shower, so he deliberately lowered the water temperature to make him more comfortable.After rinsing and drying his hair, Eloise took his mobile phone and saw that there was a missed call, which was a call from the assistant director.She called back, "Director Joseph, is there any new role you want to recommend to us Sasha?"Director Joseph laughed happily, "You guessed it right, I have a friend who is looking for an actor in her drama, I talked to her and recommended Sasha to her, she is very satisfied with the photos, you take her to audition!"It is an opportunity for newcomers to get tickets to audition roles.Eloise readily agreed, "Okay! Thank you, Director Joseph, I have time to invite you to dinner. ”After Director Joseph hung up the phone, he sent her the time and place of the interview, two days later.Eloise told Sasha the good news and asked her to remember to free up time.She played with her mobile phone for a while, focusing on

    Eloise kept telling herself that she didn’t care, but truthfully, she couldn’t stop thinking about what had happened. Every time she saw Cosmo, the memory of that night came rushing back. It left an uncomfortable silence between them for several days.Meanwhile, Arellano invited her to dinner. Because of what happened before, she declined. But a while later, Ardiel called and told her they would all be dining together that evening. Since Ardiel would be there, Eloise felt she had no choice but to go.When she arrived at the private dining room of a restaurant, both Arellano and Ardiel were already there. They greeted her warmly and enthusiastically. The couple knew her taste well, so they had ordered all her favorite dishes.Eloise wanted to cut ties with the Lopezes completely. But to Arellano and Ardiel, it was just a childish outburst. In their eyes, she was simply sulking to get their attention.Despite her resistance, Ardiel kept chatting with her and even gave her expensive desi

    Mr. Viernes had cut off Sasha’s credit card to force her to humble herself and admit her mistake. He knew that if she returned home, apologized, and said a few sweet things, she’d eventually get it back. After all, she was still his daughter, and no matter what, he couldn’t stand seeing his princess suffer. In his eyes, Sasha was simply a girl who knew how to spend money but had no clue how to earn it.Lander had known Eloise far longer than Sasha, but it was Sasha who had become Eloise’s closest friend, and that made Lander feel like an outsider. He couldn’t accept that Sasha had replaced him as the person Eloise trusted the most.“How did someone like you, who does nothing but run off and party, end up as the best friend of a smart and respectable woman like her?”Lander had been rejected by Eloise before, over and over again. But now, it stung even more that she was still pushing him away, this time, for Sasha.He also knew that Sasha was willing to give up a role she had long drea

    The words coming from Cosmo’s mouth carried a weight that would’ve felt different if anyone else had said them.He was once a man who seemed to have it all, successful, admired, untouchable. But now, he was in a wheelchair. Even if he pretended to be calm, it was clear that some part of him still hurt over what he’d lost.Eloise had only said one simple sentence, but it clearly struck a nerve, hitting the most sensitive part of Cosmo, and that made him even angrier.“You know that’s not what I meant,” Eloise said softly. “I just want to stay here.”Cosmo looked at her coldly, and Eloise instinctively leaned back a little to create some distance between them.It was a small movement, but given how close they were, Cosmo noticed.“Even if I’m paralyzed, I can still put you in your place,” he said coldly, pulling Eloise toward him until their faces were just inches apart.Their eyes locked. Their breaths mingled.Eloise could see every detail of his lashes. In a gentle voice, she whisper

    Even though Eloise knew there was nothing going on between her and Lander, and that it was impossible for anything to happen, Caroline clearly thought otherwise.Eloise had no intention of explaining her private life to Caroline. “Why don’t you just ask Lander yourself?” she replied calmly.If a man caused a problem, he should be the one to resolve it. She didn’t want to get caught in the middle, but in this case, she already was, thanks to Lander.Caroline sneered in frustration. “I’m not stupid enough to just go up to him and ask out of nowhere! He might think I’m watching his every move and start resenting me! The real question is, why are you acting so secretive?”Eloise gave a faint smile. She had to admit, Caroline had a bit of a brain after all. “Because there’s nothing I need to explain to you.”In other words, she didn’t owe her anything.Caroline grew even more irritated. She had never met anyone more frustrating than Eloise. Her voice rose. “Eloise, don’t forget, you’re mar
