âFuck! When did Evan become so shameless?â he wondered.
âYou are planning to marry Paige in the future, right?â Evan asked with contempt. âArenât you.
willing to make this sacrifice for her?â
Alex was rendered speechless, thinking. âThis has nothing to do with Paige and me. Evan is
me to win over Joan.â
He slumped in his seat. âEvan, has anyone ever told you how despicable you can be?â
Evan sneered. âBusinessmen only care about profits.â
Alex rolled his eyes. âFine. Iâll spend the money to buy fake votes.â
Evan nodded. âOnce the task is done, Iâll expose Paigeâs identity intentionally. Her value as a

Alex hadnât expected Evan to plan so cunningly. Indeed, if Paige won a fashion design competition
against a worldâclass opponent, her worth would skyrocket. Caroline couldnât say anything against it
since both parties were related to her.
After analyzing the situation, Alex said, âYour strategy is quite clever.â
âClever? Joan is a top designer. Do you really think I stand a chance?â
âOf course not. Otherwise, you wouldnât be trying to win Joan over for MK.â
âBut is what youâre doing good for Caroline?â Alex asked.
Evanâs gaze turned cold. âMy relationship with Caroline has been irreparable since my motherâs

âI donât make assumptions.â
âI believe you might regret this,â Alex stated.
âWe can talk when you have evidence,â Evan replied.

Daniella got up early on Friday morning. She could not sleep because she feared Caroline might take
advantage when she wasnât with Casey. She wondered what it would take to be with Casey
for real.
If I can consummate my relationship with Casey, Caroline wonât be able to assert dominance
anymore,â Daniella thought.
Agitated, she grabbed her bag and walked out of her room, colliding with someone at the door. She
exclaimed, âWatch where youâre going, idiot!â
Her expression changed drastically when she looked up and saw Greta and Yuliana. âItâs⦠Aunt
Greta â She forced a smile.
Greta briefly appeared cold but quickly concealed it. âYouâre up early, Ella.â
Struggling, Daniella smiled and greeted, âAunt Greta and Yulia, you are up early too.â
âYulia? Yuliana was disgusted but remained silent
Greta gracefully suggested, âWould you like to join us for breakfast?â
âSure,â Daniella agreed obediently.
As Daniella was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something. âOh right, Yulia, are you free?
Can I talk to you?â
Yuliana frowned, wondering what Daniella wanted
Greta looked at Yuliana and said, âYulia, go ahead. Iâll head downstairs first.â
âAlright.â
Daniella pulled Yuliana into the room after Greta left.
Yuliana pulled her hand away, displeased. âDonât touch me. Weâre not that close.â
