He suspected that he was crazy to skip work just because she was leaving the country.

“Renee!” he called,

Renee’s words were cut short as she approached the car.Marcelo, seated in the back, reached out, grasped the back of her neck, and pulled her close.

His lips met hers in a fervent kiss, starting with an intensity like a reprimand. It slowly turned softer, transforming into a gentle goodbye.

Suddenly, Jonah Hewitt’s assistant burst in, panic–stricken “Jonah, there’s a problem! The pater’s jewlery can’t be delivered!”

Jonah, the chief costume designer for the Light show, was man in his mid–thirds and quite handhane Sewas perplexed. “How can that be? Isn’t the jewelry provided by Vivian?” he inquired.

“The jewelry partner is Vivian Lambert?“Renee echoed, her concern growing. She felt uneasy when site herand Vivian’s name. She knew the show’s jewelry was being styled by a prominent designer, but she didn’t realize was her. The jewelry’s high value and small size meant Retire had only seen photos, not the actual plenes

“Yes, that’s her,” Jonah confirmed, quickly dialing Vivian’s studio.

The call was brief, and Jonah’s face darkened with every word. He hung up, looking very serious. “What happened? “Renee asked, her worry evident.

“Vivian’s agent said she thinks the designs don’t match our company’s style. She’s pulling cut and will pay the breach of contract f*e,” Jonah explained, his expression grim. “We’ve worked with her before. That’s why we trusted her to deliver the jewelry on the day of the show.”

Renee realized the severity of the situation. The breach of contract f*e wasn’t the main issue. Vivian backing out on the day of the show seemed more like a deliberate act than a genuine concern about design misuratives.

Renee had a sinking feeling. This felt personal. Vivianwas targeting her!

This was Renee’s first time leading an international show for Light. Any failure, especially now, would tamish her

career.

Jonah, now racing against time, began calling various contacts to secure alternative jewelry. He was too occupied to confront Vivian about her actions.

Meanwhile, Renee stepped aside and dialed Vivian’s number.

“Miss Lambert, this is Renee,” she said as soon as the call connected.

“Miss Hudson? How did you get my contact? Did Marcelo give it to you?“Vivian sounded suspicious.

“You called me to plead for Herman once, remember? I saved your number after that call.“Renee was irked by Vivian’s mention of Marcelo.

“I see. Do you need something, Miss Hudson?“Vivian’s tone was deliberate, though she was already aware of why Renee was calling, having been briefed by her agent?

Renee didn’t want to waste time with pleasantries. “Miss Lambert, I’m leading the styling for this Light show. I just heard about your abrupt contract breach. You’ve worked with Light three times before, If there’s a mismatch in design style or concept, why were the past collaborations successful?”

“The previous times were indeed fine, “Vivian responded, hinting at something else.

Renee, looking down at the carpet, chuckled softly. Her voice took on a colder edge. “Is it because I’m involved this time?”

“Miss Hudson, my lawyer will handle the negotiations with Light for the breach of contract compensation. This is not something a stylist like you should concern yourself with, “Vivian replied.

She dodged Renee’s question, firmly refusing to give Renee any leverage over her

While her words were proper on the surface, Vivian and Renee were both aware of why Vivian did what she did. “Miss Lambert, just to target me, you chose to alienate a top luxury brand. I’m honored by the value you see in me!

“Renee’s face was cold.

She had initially admired Vivian’s talent.

But now,she would never align herself with someone who didn’t value her career and aspirations.

“Miss Hudson, I don’t understand what you’re saying, “Vivian murmured softly, still clinging to the pretense the had done nothing wrong.

Moreover, she was certain that she wasn’t alienating Light

She was talented and everyone knew it. Sooner or later, Light would actively seek to mend their relationship. Besides, with this move, she would make it clear to Light and other brands that Renee was to be avoided!
