The photo below was just snapped, showing Cecelia and Henrik together.

Chairman Shen: Meet my future daughter-in-law! [Grinning]

Florik Entertainment: Meet our future boss lady! [Laughing]

Netizens nationwide: "..."

Well, isn't that something? Looks like everyone's throwing their support behind Cecelia!

...

We're down to the final award ceremony of the fashion show, and the judges are having the time of their lives, enjoying this dramatic and sweet spectacle. Honestly, it's proving to be more entertaining than the fashion show itself. Howell is feeling a tad jealous; his love life hasn't exactly blossomed yet. He can't help but think of the girl who captivated him at the annual island retreat, his gaze growing wistful.

The judges, ever professional, complete the final award ceremony, with Florik Entertainment deservedly taking first place. Cecelia is thrilled and thanks the designer, Taylor, who nods enthusiastically, "No need for formalities, boss lady." Cecelia: "..."

"I was wondering why Mr. Raul was giving me the cold shoulder," Rafael muses.

Looks like everyone's paired up now.

He-

Sigh.

His designer, Flora, isn't even designing for him anymore, passing the task to the underdog, Kaylee.

Flora and Connor come over to extend their congratulations.

"Miss!"

"Please" Flora shakes her head, looking earnestly at Cecelia, "Just call me Flora from now on." Cecelia: "..."

Well, that seals it. That hand-holding earlier? Totally misunderstood by everyone! But honestly, she's not entirely upset about it!

"Big brother." Connor nods at Henrik, then glances at Cecelia, pausing, "Flora."

"You should go change," Henrik suggests, his ears a bit red, noticing Cecelia doesn't seem to mind Flora and Connor's terms of endearment. He breathes a quiet sigh of relief.

Cecelia quickly hurries backstage to

change out of her dress, and the

other celebrities and models there greet her with newfound respect and friendliness. Cecelia's status as the future boss lady of Florik

Entertainment is not something they

can afford to ignore.

She quickly changes and comes out, only to replace that Flora and Connor have already left, and the media reporters have mostly dispersed now that the fashion show is over. "Where did they go?"

Henrik glances at her, still in that striking red coat, "They've already left."

"Oh."

Henrik hesitates for a moment but then reaches out to gently hold her wrist, "Let's go."

Cecelia swallows, not pulling away.

There are still quite a few media reporters at the entrance, but Henrik shields Cecelia from them, guiding her safely.

He opens the car door for her, letting her in, then slides into the driver's seat, ready to take her home.

The car is warm with the heater on, and Cecelia finally has a moment to check her phone. She expected Twitter to be buzzing about her and Liam Peyton, but to her surprise, all the trending topics are about her and Henrik.

There's even a #WhiteSmokeCP hashtag.

To speak or not to speak, that name is kind of goofy.

Cecelia quietly follows the hashtag with her alt account and spots tweets from Flora and Raul.

Sister-in-law, daughter-in-law...

Have they really accepted her?

Honestly, Cecelia can't help but feel a bit insecure, her background is pretty average, hardly a match for,

someone like Henrik. She alwave

thought the Irving family, with their prestigious lineage, wouldn't give her a second glance.

"If you're tired, you can rest for a bit," Henrik says, noticing her deep in thought with her phone.

"I'm not tired..."

Cecelia's voice is soft. Clutching her phone, she takes a few deep breaths, then turns to Henrik, "Mr. Raul, are you out of your mind?" Henrik: "..."

Otherwise, how else could he have fallen for her?!
