Chapter 21: Defending Yourself Is the Stupidest Thing

When Eleanor saw Ollie, she thought of what had happened last night. But since her son had greeted her first, how could she ignore him? She took a few steps toward him. "Good afternoon. Just out of school?"When Ollie saw her speaking to him, he felt a secret rush of happiness. So Mommy can't let go of me!"Yes, Mommy. Lily's mommy picked me up from school."Eleanor turned her attention to the figure beside him. Vivian must have just gotten off work. She wore a white skirt suit with a trench coat over it. And, unfortunately, the coat was red too.Two women with exquisite looks but different styles, standing side by side, made a beautiful sight wherever they stood. Several shop assistants had already looked over, and couldn't help wondering what the relationship between these people was.Only Chloe's face showed open displeasure. She rolled her eyes at Vivian, crossed her arms, and looked away. Pretending, as usual."Ms. Sterling, thank you for your hard work," Eleanor said at last. Sh

Chapter 22: Confrontation: Beautifully Packaged Garbage

As for the open and hidden sparring between the adults a moment ago, each side had its own story, and no outsider could judge. But the moment the child spoke, everyone understood.The child wasn't close to his mother. He liked another woman. No wonder the lady was called "Mommy."The two shop assistants standing nearby covered their mouths, wide-eyed. And inside, they were both crying out. Why hasn't the manager come yet?!When Ollie finished speaking, Isabelle raised her eyebrows, smug. Beside her, Vivian quietly let out a breath of relief. From an angle no one could see, she lowered her gaze to Ollie, and a dark light flickered through her eyes. It seems this move was worth it."Did you hear what Ollie said? He likes Vivian, not you!" Isabelle lifted her chin and mocked without mercy. "So in the future, don't embarrass Vivian by using the title of Ollie's biological mother!""You...!" Chloe was furious."All right, Chloe." Eleanor held her back and looked at her with clear, calm eye

Chapter 23: Stalemate: A Contest Over a Dress

Isabelle was so angry her head felt ready to explode.Fine. She wouldn't hit her. But Eleanor had humiliated her so badly today that she refused to let it go. There was no way she would let Eleanor walk off with that dress!"Eleanor Hayes, I like this dress too! I'm buying it!""Oh," Eleanor said lightly. "But I won't give it to you."She signaled the shopping assistant to ring it up quickly. The assistant didn't want any trouble, so she hurried to take the dress. But the moment she had it, Isabelle lunged and tried to snatch it away again.Chloe stared.? Is the little princess okay?"Hey, are you sick?" she said impatiently, her face dark.Isabelle glared. "What's it to you? I'm talking to Eleanor!""Then didn't you hear me? I won't give it to you!" Eleanor's tone dropped, too. After Isabelle's repeated unreasonable demands, her patience had run out. She pushed Isabelle aside, planted one hand on her shoulder, and said to the assistant, "Sorry for the trouble!""You're not allowed to

Chapter 24: You're a Top Art Student. You Can Do It!

Vivian was startled and pointed at herself. "Me?" Then she waved her hands awkwardly. "Belle, you should do it yourself. I'm afraid it might hurt your chances...""Oh, Vivian, you were a top student in fine arts! You're so talented, and you have your own brand! Don't be afraid. You'll definitely beat Eleanor Hayes!""Then... I'll do my best." Vivian pressed her lips together and nodded under Isabelle's earnest gaze. Isabelle hugged her, grateful."Hey, Miss Blackwood, you're allowed to get a substitute?" Chloe said, displeased. She had thought the little princess had real skill, but it turned out she was only a figurehead who had to lean on someone else.With Vivian there, Isabelle wasn't afraid at all. "What's wrong? You can send someone in for her too!"Chloe said nothing. The manager said nothing either. After all, this competition was between two sides, not two individuals, so as long as someone took the field, it was fine.In that case, Chloe said no more. She gave Eleanor a hug.

Chapter 25: Switched? It Turned Out to Be a Joke!

As the words fell, every eye was fixed on the manager's hands.The moment Vivian saw the painting clearly, her expression changed sharply. But Isabelle and Ollie beside her didn't notice, and spoke first in the quiet shop."Wow! This dress is so beautiful! Vivian, you're amazing! You're worthy of being a top graduate of Ashgrove Academy!""Yeah, Mommy Vivian! Your design is so pretty. It'll look great on you!"The two praised Vivian lavishly, every lovely word aimed at her. But at that moment, she could hardly stand.Before she could say anything, Chloe, sitting opposite, leaned toward the manager and looked closely at the signature on the work.EH.Two letters, lively and elegant. Ellie's signature mark.Chloe saw it at a glance. The next second, she looked up at Isabelle across from her, speechless. Isabelle was still hugging Vivian excitedly and praising her as talented, beautiful, and so clever...Chloe frowned. "I said... is this your work?"The slow question cut through the prai

Chapter 26: Call the Police, and Let's Go Together

The police arrived out of nowhere. No one had noticed when Eleanor made the call. Everyone just watched the officers walk into the shop, and by the time they reacted, the police were already asking what had happened.Eleanor quickly explained the situation to the two officers. After listening, they rubbed their heads and looked at each other. It was only a minor quarrel between two young women, and all they could do was try to talk them down."Miss, it's just a piece of clothing. The two of you can work it out. There are other nice ones here.""Right. If it's nothing serious, move along and stop watching." The officer raised a hand to disperse the crowd.But the matter hadn't been settled, and nobody knew who owed whom an apology, so the passersby didn't want to leave. They pushed and shoved one another, and for a long time nobody moved more than a few steps. Seeing this, the officers had to turn back."Who's the store manager?" one called.The manager bowed slightly and explained the

Chapter 27: Backbone: Revenge for Lily's Mommy!

Isabelle summed it up in a few sharp sentences. Then she turned to the captain on duty with a warning look. The captain understood at once, lowered his head, and didn't dare speak again.Then she looked at Alexander. His profile was half hidden in the light, bright on one side and dark on the other, so it was hard to read his thoughts for a moment. But Isabelle knew her brother was silent because he was weighing what she'd said. He didn't completely disbelieve her, but he probably didn't completely believe her either.So she began to cry. With tears in her eyes, she poured out her complaints. "Brother, Eleanor's friend cursed Vivian and said she couldn't have children, and she even said there's something wrong with your body! Not only that, she scolded me too! You and Mom and Dad have never talked to me like that in my whole life. What right does she have?! And look at how Eleanor pinched me! It hurts so much!"She held out her arm. Alexander lowered his eyes and clearly saw the red m

Chapter 28: Venting Anger, and Getting Slapped

As the words fell, Eleanor kicked her chair back and slowly stood. She faced Alexander. Their expressions were icy, each colder than the other's, and neither looked away.Eleanor smiled. "And how would you like me to pay it back?""Well... Isabelle insulted my friend, so how about we insult her back? She also tried to attack us. She didn't actually hit anyone, but since Mr. Blackwood says he wants to hit back, we have no choice but to hit back too."She counted the items off slowly, one by one, then suddenly lifted her head and curved her lips. "Is President Blackwood satisfied with that?"The moment she finished, someone seized her wrist. Alexander stepped in close, and a heavy sense of pressure came down over her head. Her wrist stung. She frowned and looked up, and met a gaze full of anger."Eleanor, don't push your luck. I already gave you a chance. Since you don't want it, I hope you can bear the consequences of your stubbornness!"He shook her hand away. Eleanor wasn't ready, an

Chapter 29: Living Together, the Forgotten Folder

Feeling the warmth of Chloe's fingertips, Eleanor's eyes moved slightly, and she lowered her gaze to look at her."I'm sorry, Chloe. It's all because of me," she said in a choked voice.After so many years of friendship, Chloe could read her thoughts almost at a glance. She stopped her. "Ellie, this has nothing to do with you. You're not allowed to take all the blame on yourself. I couldn't stand watching Isabelle and that mistress bully you, so I stepped in on my own.""You've suffered too much injustice over the years. I couldn't say anything before because Alexander was in your heart. But now that you've decided to divorce, I'll stand behind you and support you with everything I have!"Chloe gripped Eleanor's hand tightly and said firmly, "So we don't separate yours and mine. We face the outside world together!"Eleanor lowered her eyes, pressed her lips together, and tried to digest the shock in her heart. After a moment, she said nothing more and simply held Chloe's hand in retur

Chapter 30: Did You Work at Blackwood Before?

The next morning, when Chloe woke up, the first thing she did was check her face. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the swelling had gone down a lot. Rubbing her cheek, she came out with a robe over her shoulders and found that Eleanor had already made breakfast.Chloe clutched her face and cried out, then rushed over to hug her. "Baby, you're so wonderful!" She leaned over to look at the table full of delicious food and praised it sincerely. "I'm so happy! So much good food!"Eleanor set down the plates and forks and slipped out of her arms. "Does your face still hurt?""Mm, just a little. I'll have to wear a mask later so it doesn't affect my image."Eleanor said nothing.The two of them got ready, and with Eleanor driving, they set off for Chloe's talent agency, Crossroads Entertainment. On this late autumn morning, mist hung over the city like a thin layer of gauze over the earth, and withered yellow leaves swayed gently in the breeze.It took more than half an hour to ar
