Mathieu: “…”He wasn’t hearing things. It was Emma Hales. She said she’d come to him—and even asked about his schedule!For the first time in his life, he felt blessed by a royal visit. Mathieu was stunned for a good while, until her bright, charming voice came again, “Don’t worry, I promised Esther I’d just act. No flirting with the director, okay?”Mathieu: “…”Just like that, the female lead of “The Love in Paris” was confirmed. Mathieu trusted that he could handle the rest of the casting.Meanwhile, Esther accepted a fashion invitation to attend a luxury jewelry exhibition, hoping to explore brand collaborations.The result—She barely saw any actual brand reps. Instead, the entire elite socialite circle had shown up. With the Davenier family fallen and Chloe out of the picture, Kendall quickly aligned with Claire again. After multiple failed showdowns, Claire brought out her final trump card—Cap

The only consolation was that she always kept her noble lady demeanor, and what she said could only be heard by her and Esther. Even if she got embarrassed or slapped in the face, the only witness was Esther herself.Inhale, exhale, deep breath!“Evander, ditching your friends for a pretty face? That’s not very gentlemanly,” Luna said with a light laugh.She’d just taken a few emotional hits but recovered quickly. Within minutes, she latched onto Esther’s arm, forcing a graceful smile. Her voice was teasing—light, playful, trying to salvage her image.“I mean, Miss Davenier is gorgeous. Can’t blame you for being distracted. Such a heartbreaker.”It sounded harmless, just casual social banter—perfectly acceptable in public, no matter what Evander’s mood was. A joke with no real weight. A graceful retreat.Evander smiled… but not kindly.“Let me correct you, Miss Carter.” His voice was calm, but the undercurrent was ice.

Oh? Pretty clever, huh? Calculating all that so carefully, making it seem like she had no room to argue. However... "Then no discount—I want the stuff back, and I'll take it to the secondhand market and sell it myself!" Esther already knew what kind of person she was. Arguing or reasoning with her now would be a joke. “Several of those are limited editions, and some are hot sellers. You don’t know their current prices, but I do. Even if they’re used bags, they’re still worth quite a lot. Just give them to me—I’m not discounting them!” “How can you be like this?” Kendall felt like something exploded in her brain. Usually the one who outwitted others, she suddenly went blank, not knowing what to say. In the end, she uttered a stupid sentence, “Why won’t you listen to reason at all?” “Do you think reasoning with you makes any difference? Are you even human? Do you understand reason? If you don’t pay, I’ll call people. I’m a shrew, and shrews aren’t afraid of lo

Suddenly pulled back, Esther stumbled and collided into the man’s chest. His voice, rough with urgent breathing, came close, “No way. You fed me that pill, no matter if it’s a laxative or poison, I’ll die in your arms!”“You…”“Esther, I like you!”Before Esther could even struggle, she was cut off after one syllable, “I don’t know if you like me, but at least you definitely don’t hate me!”“Who says I don’t hate you?”The harder Esther struggled, the tighter his grip became. His voice deepened, “If you hate me, why would you feed me pills? You could’ve just let me die!”“That’s because you were going to…” Esther stopped, realizing her explanation sounded weak. Everything she had done just showed how nervous she was around him. How could anyone be nervous about someone they hated?“You… what nonsense are you talking about? Let go of me, my wrist’s breaking, it hurts… it hurts…!”This sudden change of subject was timely but push
