From a distance, Renee locked eyes with Jay and defiantly raised her chin in response to his displeased expression.
Did he believe that the show would inevitably fail due to his and Vivian’s scheme?
Just because he refused to play the piano, he thought that no one else would be able to?
Jay, like a thwarted clown, made a hasty retreat.
Jonah excused himself and left to deal with the press and media.
Renee discreetly pulled Freddy away from the group, giving him a brief rundown of Vivian’s and Jay’s violation of their contract.
In a hushed tone, she gave him clear instructions. “Expose their violation of the contract to the media.”
Just paying a breach of contract [*e was letting them off too easily
“No problem!” Freddy immediately agreed. His curiosity got the better of him and he asked, “Boss, do they have a grudge against you? Did you steal their business?”
“Um…No, just do as I say.”
She hadn’t stolen Vivian’s business.
But Vivian was probably of the opinion that Renee had stolen her man.
Come on, Marcelo was undeniably Renee’s man now, both legally and physically!
The end of the grand show ushered in a small party, exclusively attended by a chosen group of top–tier clients and elite media figures.
In the preceding two to three years, attendees of the show generally adopted a cautious wait–and–see approach. However, today marked a departure from that trend, with numerous guests placing orders, unequivocally affirming the success of the show.
Upon Jonah’s entrance to the party, he overheard guests and media personnel showering praise on the show, prompting a relieved and contented smile.
Choosing Renee, an up–and–coming stylist, had been the correct decision. 1
Simultaneously, the jewelry accessories worn by the models became a central topic of discussion. “Is it just me or… Do the jewels featured by Light today resemble auction pieces from a few years ago?”
“If you’re questioning your sight, so am I…”
“Weren’t we informed that Light was partnering with jewelry designer Vivian for this event?”
“Light went as far as utilizing collector’s jewels? That’s a big move”
“Goodness gracious! It’s akin to a private collection exhibition, not merely a showcase! We’ve struck gold just by being present at this show!”
Upon hearing these remarks, Jonah couldn’t shake off his thoughts.
They should have considered charging an admission f*e!
“Director Jonah!” Someone soon approached him. “Could you enlighten us about your jewelry collaboration partner?My company is organizing a charity jewelry exhibition later this year, and we’re interested in partnering with the owner these exquisite jewels.”
The person wore an enthusiastic smile, hoping for the Light to facilitate the connection.
Jonah, feeling a sense of pride in having a powerful friend like Renee, responded, “I’m sorry, but these jewels were borrowed by

our stylist, Renee. Even here at Light, we are not privy to the identity of the owner.”
“Rence?”
“Yes, she was the pianist who took the stage today. I wonder if you noticed her performance.”
The individual was left momentarily speechless. He was equally perplexed.

The jewelry supplier they were inquiring about turned out to be the same person who worked as a pianist and stylist for Light?
Witnessing the person’s confused expression, Jonah experienced an odd sense of equilibrium. While speculations circulated about why Light’s jewelry partner transitioned from Vivian’s designs to collector’s jewels, ‘insider news‘ revealed something
Light’s original independent jewelry designer had abruptly breached the contract! In a desperate move, Light had to activate a backup plan and resort to using collector’s jewels.
Industry peers scoffed at the idea of the move being out of desperation.
Renee returned to her hotel, unaware of these developments, and slept soundly.

The next day, when invited by Light’s CEO’s secretary, she learned about the unfolding situation. Concerned for Renee, Freddy accompanied her to the Light Group, expecting a less–than–friendly reception.
To their surprise, they were warmly welcomed and sincerely thanked by the CEO of Light.
After expressing gratitude, the CEO of Light inquired, “Regarding the jewelry sponsorship, Miss Hudson, could you help us contact the owner of the jewels? We would like to formally express our thanks.”
Puzzled, Freddy cut in, “Renee, aren’t those jewels yours?”
With no intention of revealing that the jewels were hers, Renee was at a loss for words when Freddy blew her cover.
Freddy shut his mouth tight.
Had he just revealed something he shouldn’t have?
The CEO of Light, taken aback, gazed at Renee.
Could it be that these priceless jewels actually belonged to the young woman standing before them?
Swiftly regaining composure, the CEO offered a smile. “If the owner prefers to remain anonymous, we respect that. However, if Miss Hudson is willing, our company would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude…I mean, for helping us contact the owner of the jewels.”
