Chapter 71

I jolted in surprise and instinctively stepped back. Dolly immediately moved in front of me, her expression fierce. "What do you want?" The man, clearly drunk, had a flushed face, and the heavy stench of alcohol clung to his words. "Relax, gorgeous. Just wanna get to know you. How about adding me on Instagram?" Dolly let out a cold, mocking laugh. "Not happening. Now move. We’re heading home." The man trailed behind us, his mouth spewing filth. "Damn, feisty one, huh? I’m just being friendly. You two stunning ladies, out here drinking alone—what a shame. “No boyfriends to keep you company? That’s just sad. Come on, hang with me instead. Next time you wanna drink, hit me up—I’ll take you to the best bars." By the time we reached the curb, he was still following, refusing to let up. Dolly was getting annoyed. "God, are you serious? Take a hint, we’re not interested. You’re drunk, so do yourself a favor and get lost." I noticed his expression darken and quickly stepped b

The man seized the opportunity to jump into the driver’s seat, and with a sharp launch, the Ferrari shot forward, speeding away from the chaos. Dolly and I were squeezed together in the passenger seat, both of us still tense from what had just happened. He drove through the streets, making several sharp turns before finally pulling into a secluded spot and bringing the car to a stop. The doors opened, and Dolly and I hesitantly stepped out, still shaken. The man followed, casually pulling out a cigarette and lighting it. His sharp, mischievous eyes flicked to me as he leaned against the car with a grin. "So, Eve, how do you plan to thank me for saving your ass tonight?" Eve? A shiver of discomfort ran down my spine. I finally recognized him. "Trey Wynn?" "Mm-hmm." Trey leaned lazily against the car door, cigarette dangling from his lips. He arched a perfect brow, a smirk playing on his lips. "Took you long enough to recognize me. I gotta say, I’m a little hurt." I

I slept terribly that night. In my dream, I saw myself getting harassed by strangers, and Trey stepping in to fight them off. But in the next instant, Miles was there, standing quietly, watching. "Miles!" I ran toward him, but he just looked at me with disapproval. "What trouble have you gotten yourself into this time?" I opened my mouth to explain when Julian suddenly stormed in from nowhere, his face livid. He grabbed my wrist and snapped, "Evelyn, you’re causing trouble again. Can’t you just stay out of it for once?" I struggled hard to break free. "I don’t need you to control me! Let go!" Julian shot me a look of pure disdain. "Haven’t you had enough? You never stop making a scene. Do you even care if your friends get dragged down with you?" I turned in alarm—sure enough, I saw Dolly being taken away. Panic surged through me. "I didn’t do anything! It wasn’t me! They were the ones harassing us!" I shouted, desperate to explain, but no one moved to help Dolly.

There were seven roses, each one lush and perfectly formed. I admired them carefully. Suddenly, Dolly leaned in close, her face just inches from mine. "Eve, did you notice something?" I blinked. "What?" She pointed at me. "Look in the mirror." Confused, I turned to the mirror and froze. The reflection staring back at me was completely different from the person I had been just a couple of weeks ago when I walked out of the hospital. Back then, my face had been pale and lifeless, drained of energy. My eyes were dull, heavy with exhaustion and despair. But now, my skin was radiant, my lips curved into an undeniable smile, and my eyes—bright, full of warmth, brimming with something I hadn’t seen in myself for a long time. I hesitated, reaching up to touch my own face, as if to make sure it was really me. Dolly leaned in again, eyes narrowing. "Okay, spill. This was from Mr. Wynn, wasn’t it?" Panic surged through me. I quickly blurted out, "Uh—this is from a store I

For a brief moment, Chloe’s carefully crafted look of innocence cracked.I caught the flash of cold calculation in her eyes.This woman wasn’t as simple as she pretended to be. Julian was completely under her control, and he didn’t even realize it. He probably thought she was just a little possessive, but what he failed to see was that he had a venomous snake coiled around him.If Chloe could snoop through his phone, that meant she had access to far more—confidential business information, corporate strategies, even financial records.Realizing this, I instinctively took a step back.Chloe softened her voice, her tone delicate and fragile. "Miss White, Miss Jones, I came here in person to show my sincerity. I want to make peace with you."Before Dolly could speak, I frowned. "Miss Clarke, if this is about your proposal last time, then there’s nothing to discuss. That’s between Julian and me.""And besides, I have no interest in being your friend, much less making peace. Because there

When he arrived, the living room was dimly lit, with only the soft glow of a floor lamp casting warm, golden light.I stood alone by the floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the city below, where endless streams of headlights weaved through the rain-slicked streets.Outside, the rain fell in a steady, quiet drizzle.Behind me, the sound of footsteps, calm, measured, and controlled, broke the silence."Why are you still up this late?"His familiar voice was cool, even colder than the rainy night outside.Through the reflection in the glass, I saw Miles standing behind me.In the window’s faint outline, our figures overlapped—like two lovers locked in a quiet embrace.I turned to face him, my gaze steady. "Miles, can you do me a favor?"My directness caught him slightly off guard.I handed him the invitation.His brows furrowed as he took it. "How did you get this?"I briefly explained Chloe’s visit.For a fleeting moment, a sharp, icy look flashed across Miles’s face. He was und

Chapter 77

That night, I slept soundly with no dreams, just peaceful rest.I didn’t know if Miles would agree to be my date, but I had already handed him the decision.It was no longer my problem to stress over.The next morning, as soon as I woke up, I instinctively reached for my phone.There were several missed calls from an unknown number.A handful of new friend requests on my messaging app.My eyes darkened. Without hesitation, I blocked them all.There was a solid 70 to 80 percent chance these were just Julian’s latest attempts to reach me through different numbers.I wanted nothing to do with him. Every time we spoke, he acted like he was above me, like he was indulging me.It was time to get a new phone number.With that decision made, I got up, went through my morning routine, and headed out for breakfast.Dolly was already up, sitting at the table with Mary, chatting while eating.As soon as she saw me, she waggled her brows dramatically. "Oh, our esteemed Miss White, do you have an

Rossie strutted into the room, dragging along a man in a loud floral shirt.The guy had a round belly, greasy skin riddled with acne, and despite clearly being past his prime, he was still trying to dress like a trendy young man.Dolly’s patience snapped. "Rossie, what the hell are you doing here?"Rossie smirked and patted the man's shoulder, her voice shrill with arrogance. "I’m here with my boyfriend to pick out a little gift. What, you two don’t want these things, but I can’t take a look?"Dolly scoffed. "Oh, a new boyfriend, huh? And he brought you here to get a gift? Guess he thinks secondhand suits you."Rossie’s carefully made-up face twisted with anger.She let out a sharp breath. "If you can be here, why can’t I? What, is window shopping illegal now?"I could see another argument brewing, so I quickly tugged Dolly back before things escalated.Still fuming, she turned to the appraiser. "Tell this woman to get lost. She’s ruining my mood."The appraiser looked uncomfortable.

Chapter 79

This time, the floral-shirted man completely ignored Rossie’s darkening expression and immediately said, "Babe, let’s just buy this one. Look, she’s never even worn it. If we went to the boutique, they’d rip us off."It was clear that Rossie hadn’t actually come here to buy jewelry. She had no intention of making a purchase.She only dragged this man along to try and humiliate me.Unfortunately for her, he wasn’t catching on and had unknowingly ruined her little scheme.Dolly instantly understood what was happening.She fanned the flames, adding, "Exactly! This gentleman is absolutely right. Designer pieces like this lose value the second they leave the boutique. “Anyone who buys them at full price is just throwing money away. What a shame…"She sighed dramatically before flashing Rossie a sly smile. "But hey, it can’t be helped. My dear Eve used to be with someone who loved wasting money like that. “She’s not getting rid of these because she dislikes them, she just wants to trade

Chapter 80

Rossie’s face turned an alarming shade of red as she glared at the limited-edition necklaces in my hand.I could practically see the internal battle waging inside her.The ones I had pulled aside were rare, hard-to-find pieces. If she wanted them, she had to accept my price. And if she didn’t snatch them up now, someone else would, and by tomorrow, she’d lose her chance at getting them for anything less than retail.The appraiser finished calculating and handed me the final number: $90,600.I was satisfied and quickly signed the sale agreement.On the other hand, Rossie was fuming, practically stomping her foot in frustration.In the end, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and buy two of my necklaces—one for $4,000, the other for $7,000.The moment she strutted out, clinging to her floral-shirted boyfriend, Dolly and I nearly doubled over, struggling to hold back our laughter.She grabbed my arm, still giggling. "You’re evil! How did you know Rossie would definitely end up buyin
