“I should just rip this off of you! You don’t deserve it! Who the hell do you think you are?” Scarlet spat, her demeanor feral, like a wild animal cornered and desperate.“Just a woman who refuses to blend into the background while you prance around like you're the queen of the world.”Shocked gasps echoed through the room. The vibe in the restroom had shifted in Kourtney’s favor.A handful of other women had already gathered around the two like bees. Some had their phones secretly pulled out and recorded the altercation as it unfolded.A supposed world-famous model and idol was behaving wildly and harassing a lady over a dress—it was surely going to make good headlines for the press.Scarlet barely even noticed they were being taped, too consumed by the red haze of jealousy and rage that clouded her judgment. “Look at you, acting like you own this place!” she shouted, her face flushed with indignation.Kourtney, standing her ground, firmly replied, “I am owning it!”Scarlet noticed t

Lilian hated this.She didn't want Kourtney to wake up one day and realize you wasted years waiting for a man who only wanted you in the shadows.She wasn’t just Kourtney anymore; she was Kourtney Woods, the wife of the most powerful man in Melbourne. And she needs to shine beside him.“Look, Kourt, I care about you, and it worries me. You have every right to be out there, sitting by his side and drawing the kind of respect that comes with being his wife. You’re not just some side project; you deserve to shine, to be the most important person in his life.”Kourtney bit her lip, filled with the combination of sorrow and a will to believe in Sebastian. “But… But he introduced me to his family. Doesn’t that mean anything?”“Maybe,” Lilian said, softening a bit. “But you need to have a talk with him. Make him realize that hiding you isn’t an option. You’re not a secret; Girl, you’re his wife! And I swear to God, if you let this man keep treating you like some *hidden secret*, I will perso

Scarlet knew that getting a little revenge would at least make her feel so much better about herself tonight.While she stood, brainstorming ideas of what to do, the live performance ended.“Give it up for BTS!” the host announced as all seven members left the stage in high spirits.It was a spectacular ten-minute medley of their top hits across the span of their decade-long career. The crowd erupted into thunderous applause, still buzzing from the electrifying performance that had turned the evening into an unforgettable spectacle.The crowd of people that had gathered including Kourtney and Lilian, started going back to their various seats. Everyone was chatting so excitedly.“Did you see that choreography?” one woman exclaimed, her eyes shining with awe.“Right? I thought I was going to faint!” her friend replied, clutching her purse as if it were a lifebuoy.It was one hell of a show!The performance was finally over, and it was time to move on to another part of the program.“Now

Kourtney smiled brightly.Goodness, it felt incredible to be acknowledged in such a way. She knew that the glamorous lights made her look radiant, but their astonishment ran deeper than appearance. She could tell that they couldn’t fathom why the most powerful man in the room would break his stoic persona for her.And with each sound of approval from the crowd, Kourtney’s confidence began to swell, her earlier apprehensions replaced with a fiery determination. She turned toward her in-laws seated in the front rows.Grandpa Woods was on his feet as he supported his frail legs with his walking stick. Kourtney blushed. The Old Man had a sparkle of pride in his eyes, as if saying “That's my talented Granddaughter-in-law.”Apart from him, Edwin, his sister, Clara, and a few other Woods family members were upstanding in honor of her.However, the majority of them, including Sheila, her mother, and her sister still had that disdainful and envious looks on their faces.Nevertheless, the ovati
