After he left, Modesty disgustedly withdrew her eyes, took out a wet tissue and wiped her hands. She instructed the driver, âLetâs go.â
Not long after, the black car stopped in front of a beauty salon.
Modesty carried her bag and walked in skilfully.
In the VIP room, a woman was lying on the bed, doing full-body skincare.
Modesty said, âMs. Barton.â
Aurora Barton opened her eyes and waved her hand to the staff next to her, âYou go out first.â
Aurora did not move and said lazily, âAre things done?â
âYes.â Modesty could not help but frown, âBut...â
âBut what.â
âThat guy by the name of Arthur doesnât look very reliable. Iâm worried heâll screw up our plan.â
Aurora laughed disdainfully, âThat kind of low-class person can be easily gotten rid of by just giving some money. People who can be gotten rid of using money are the most reliable in this world.â
Modesty did not say anything.
Aurora looked at her, âAny more problems?â
Modesty said, âMs. Barton, what if weâre found out of doing this?â
âAs long as you and I donât say anything, it will be fine as the one who received the money is even less likely to say anything. Besides, your master is also a judge, will he be willing to let you be defeated by others? Or is it that you have no confidence in yourself?â
âI have confidence, but...â
âIt will be fine as long as you have confidence. Iâm just helping you to get rid of trouble. To draw the style that others are good at is also a great challenge for yourself. What you have to do now is to save strength and keep it until the time of the final to trample that seductress!â
When the word âseductressâ was mentioned, Aurora gnashed her teeth in rage.
She still could not forget the embarrassment and shame she experienced at the Conrad Group that day!
Aurora said, âWell, if there is nothing, you should go back. If there is any problem, Iâll inform you in advance.â
âThen Iâll go first.â
Aurora gave an um, âTell the person to come in on your way out, my skincare is only done halfway.â
Modesty exhaled, turned around and left.
When Modesty arrived at the door of her house and when she was about to enter the password, she heard a series of footsteps behind her. She alertly turned back, âWho is there?â
âItâs me.â
The man behind her slowly raised his head and the face revealed below the hat was Adolphâs face.
Modestyâs hand that was gripping the door handle gripped even a little tighter, âMr...Mr. Miller, why do you come here?â
Adolph said, âYou father is sick and hospitalized. If you have time, go and see him.â
Hearing this, disgust flashed on Modestyâs face. She then said, âIâm busy with the competition this time so I donât have time. Besides, Iâm not a doctor, whatâs the use of going.â
As Modesty said, she opened the door and wanted to go in.
But just as she was about to close the door, the door handle was held from the outside. Adolph said, âModesty, does Stella participate in the competition you participate in.â
Modesty frowned, âWhat are you asking this for.â
Adolph kept silent for a while before saying, âYou should...fully focus on the competition, donât have any other ideas. Iâll take good care of your father.â
âMr. Miller, what do you mean by that? What else can I do if I donât focus on the competition? Are you thinking that Iâm plotting secretly to use any dirty tricks to deal with her again?â
âI didnât mean it that way.â
âIf you didnât mean it that way, you wouldnât have said that.â Modesty frowned even more and sized up him twice, âWhy do you suddenly mention this to me, donât tell me that you fall in love with her? Heh, itâs reasonable too, she is pretty so every man will like her.â
Hearing the mockery in her words, an angry frown creased Adolphâs forehead, âIt isnât what you think. I just think that it isnât easy for you to have todayâs achievement and if you can be down to earth when doing things, you wonât lose to anyone too. There is no need for you to use other ways to do some...â
âEnough, I know what are you trying to say,â Modesty interrupted him, âI wonât harm others if they donât offend me. As long as she doesnât deliberately provoke me, I wonât bother her.â
Adolph withdrew his hand, âThen you prepare for the competition, Iâll go first.â
When he had just turned around, Modesty closed the door immediately.
She bit her lips tightly and slammed her bag against the wall. Since when that even the people who were closest and she trusted the most also started to stand by Stellaâs side? What was the reason? Why was Stella able to get the best things while what she got was the remaining one from hers?
Whether it was the opportunity to study in Paris or when she was in SG, or even Clarence...
She was obviously not inferior to her in any way but why should she be inferior to Stella in every way?
She was not willing to accept it!
She must get first place in the designer competition this time!
...
When Stella returned to the studio, she saw Daniel standing at the door in the sun, smiling at her and greeting, âWelcome back, Ms. Radomil.â
Stella nodded gently. She wanted to start saying something several times but she swallowed it all back.
Daniel noticed it and asked, âIs Ms. Radomil having something to say to me?â
Since he spoke this, Stella just went along with his words, âI havenât visited your piano room yet, can I join you?â
âOf course, itâs my honour.â
There were only two girls learning the piano and one staff member in the piano room at this time.
Daniel said, âThere are some on the second floor too, does Ms. Radomil want to go up and take a look?â
âSure.â
The second floor was quiet. It should be a place to rest when one was tired. One could still faintly hear the sound of piano practice coming from downstairs.
Daniel stood in front of the coffee maker, âWould Ms. Radomil like to have a cup of coffee?â
âNo, I drank it just now. I would like to have a glass of water.â
âOkay.â
Daniel poured a glass of warm water and handed the glass to her.
Stella thought for a moment and said, âMay I know why would you set up a piano room here?â
Daniel raised his eyebrows and leant against the balcony railing, âDidnât I tell Ms. Radomil that I would stay in City N for a while. I was too bored to stay at home every day so I got myself something to do.â
âThen regarding the reason that you opened the piano room next to our studio, was it on purpose or a coincidence?â
Daniel smiled and did not answer immediately.
Stella added, âIâm quite grateful for those things before and I also think you shouldnât be a scum who plays with othersâ feelings. Itâs just that your behaviour sometimes causes a lot of trouble for my friend.â
âI just want to apologize to her for what happened before.â
âIf you donât intend to have more relationship with her, I donât think this apology is necessary.â
Daniel licked his lower lip. He surprisingly did not know what to say for a moment.
Stella let out a breath, âIf that was why you came here to set up a piano room, then I think...â
âNo.â
