Although Eleanor felt relieved, she couldn’t shake off her frustration.
“What about Lucinda? Are we just going to let her get away with this? She’s only going to become more arrogant!”
Melody spoke with assurance.
“Don’t worry. Since we can’t do anything out in the open, we’ll have to be sneaky about it.”
Eleanor listened carefully to Melody’s proposal and eventually consented.
She looked at herself in the mirror with a malicious grin and said, “Excellent. I can’t wait to see that bitch suffer.”
Meanwhile, in the office of the CEO of the Roberts Group, Nathaniel’s eyes were fixated on a video of Lucinda dancing.
Nathaniel gazed intently at his phone, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
“Boss.”
A sudden knock on the door interrupted his thoughts and Flynn walked in.
Nathaniel quickly put his phone away, grabbed his coffee, and took a sip.
“What’s up?”
Flynn hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
“I found out that the dress was indeed bought by the Turners and they paid Miss Z 30 million dollars. But I don’t understand how Lucinda got her hands on the authentic one.”
He paused for a moment and then added, “There’s probably been a misunderstanding?”
Nathaniel said nothing in response.

Flynn peeked at him curiously and saw his deep eyes. But he couldn’t tell what Nathaniel was thinking.
Flynn continued to explain, “Regardless, I don’t think this matter has anything to do with Miss Turner. She’s too innocent to be involved in this mess. I think someone is deliberately messing with her, and that’s why she’s been having such a tough time.”
“Innocent?”
Nathaniel furrowed his brow.
Flynn defended his statement, “Yes, Miss Turner is innocent and kind.
You’ve known her for years. Haven’t you thought the same?”
Nathaniel shot him a glare, causing Flynn to quickly lower his head.
The room fell into an awkward silence.
