Caroline bought a classic–styled handbag from an Louis Vuitton store and had a staff member post
it to Macido.
Initially, Cheryl assumed that Caroline had bought the bag for Daphne. But then, she got word that
it was going to be sent out. She asked, “Caroline, aren’t you preparing this for Daphne?”
“Why would I prepare a gift for her?” Caroline asked.
Cheryl was about to say something but found that she didn’t know how to answer that question.
So she quietly followed Caroline and got in the car.
Soon, they arrived at the filming site. A staff member there wasted no time taking them to the
dressing room to meet Daphne.
“Ms. Daphne has a guest. Please wait here, and I’ll head inside to tell her about your arrival,” said
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe staff member.
Caroline nodded. “Okay.”
Cheryl then whispered to Caroline, “It’s Layla for sure.”
Instead of replying, Caroline simply unlocked her phone to check if Andrea had sent her the
information about Sonia.
She was pleasantly surprised to find that Andrea was so efficient that she had obtained all the
information Caroline had requested so soon.
Caroline had even gotten her hands on some of Sonia’s unpublished works. To be frank, Caroline
was kind of touched by Andrea’s faith in her.
The staff member hadn’t come out of the dressing room yet, so Caroline found a spot to sit down
and go through the information.
In the dressing room, Daphne’s expression turned foul when she learned of Caroline’s arrival. She
and Layla locked gazes.
Layla asked, “Ms. Daphne, have you made your decision? Are you signing the contract with me or
Caroline?”
Hesitating, Daphne fell silent. She had learned from Layla that Caroline wasn’t Sean’s wife.

Regardless, Caroline and Sean were friends, and if Daphne signed the contract with Layla, it would offend Caroline.
If that happened, Caroline might ask Gwen to talk badly about Daphne in front of Sean. Then, Sean might talk to
Kirk about it too.
Daphne took a moment to consider these factors. After a while, she said, “Kindly ask someone else to become your
ambassador. I won’t sign the contract with Caroline either.”
This was the best decision she could make since she could avoid offending either side. It was the most rational thing
she could do, even though she would very much like to take her revenge on Caroline.
Layla smiled softly. “I understand why you’re refusing my offer. You’re afraid of offending Caroline and Sean,” she
said.
“But think about it. Caroline is merely Sean’s girlfriend’s friend. There’s a huge gap between them. Besides, I heard
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat Sean and his girlfriend are going to break up.”
“Really?” Daphne’s eyes lit up at her words.
“The information I get is never wrong,” Layla persuaded her.
“If you don’t believe me, you can go ask around yourself. Some others know about it already. It happened just a
couple of days ago.
“A young woman came to Gwen’s company and claimed that Gwen took her boyfriend away from her.”
“You aren’t lying to me, are you?” Daphne became more excited the longer they talked.
“We’re business partners. I don’t have a reason to lie to you,” Layla said.
“Besides, you’re Eddy’s second uncle’s wife. I’ll have to call you my aunt too in the future. Do you
think I’ll lie to a close relative?”
Daphne bought it right away. “Okay. I’ll sign the contract with you!”
“Thank you, aunt.” Layla finally smiled.
Daphne beamed at her too. Making Caroline’s life difficult lifted her spirits, and she told the staff
member, “Ask Caroline to go back.”
