Chapter 83

Selina made her way to the underground parking lot when a call came through from Trevon.

“Leaving early on your first day at work? Aren’t you afraid of getting your pay docked?”

“What? Should Trevor’s wife be toiling away at a job? If so, then marrying such a rich husband seems like a loss, doesn’t it?”

“Honey, it looks like you’re quite aware of your role as Trevour’s wife. With my money, you could spend for generations and still not run out. Since you’re getting off work early, come home for dinner soon. I want to hear your take on today’s experience at Brilliance.”

Selina opened the door and settled into the driver’s seat of her Lamborghini, her face apologetic, “Sorry, hubby, tonight I have dinner with Malcolm and Lydia. You know how big a favor Malcolm has done for me, and he’s heading back to Mumzik in a few days. It’s only right to treat him to a meal”

‘Oh

Trevon’s reply had a stifled undertone, as if it were invisibly broadcasting that he was not happy and needed coddling.

Selina couldn’t help chuckling

Who would have thought that Trevon, so dignified that he seemed untouchable, would show such emotions just for her? They were alone. Trevon didn’t have to put on a front.

Honey, give you a head pat

Selina soothed Trevon over the phone, and he let out a soft sigh, Just come back early.”

“That’s okay!”

Having managed the possessive big–shot Trevon, Selina rubbed her temples.

Do men in love get this sour when they are jealous? Even a noble one like Trevon isn’t immune

That night, Selina had her planned dinner with Lydia and Malcolm. She also wanted to show them the jewelry design. sketches that she had specially created for them.

Lydia was a young and unrestrained girl, so Selina decided on a pair of earrings exclusively for her.

As for Malcolm, a lawyer with a fiery temperament but grounded wisdom, a ring suited the characteristics of such a person. Both were over the moon when they saw Selina’s designs, “Selina, you’re amazing!”

Selina had put so much effort into those designs, just to make them gifts for her seniors. Even a tiny stone would have sent them rejoicing.

For them, there were few things in the world they couldn’t obtain. It wasn’t the value of the gift that counted, but the sentiment behind it!

With Lydia and Malcolm’s approval, Selina’s heart finally settled. The final product won’t be a problem. It’ll be ready soon. Tll personally assemble and give them to you.”

It’s funny how back when Selina first debuted as a designer named Angel, she pitched a piece to a big international brand and didn’t even feel nervous. Everything went smoothly. Now, presenting her work to Lydia and Malcolm felt way more nerve–racking!

“Malcolm, we surely need to appreciate the grand gift Selina is gifting us,” Lydia said with a smile, raising their glasses of fine

wine to toast Selinsa, each taking a sip.

“And there’s one more thing. Lydia, I’m planning to design an exclusive team bracelet for the band members of The Rose. What do you think of this draft for the bracelet?”

The sparkle in Lydia’s eyes was unmistakable upon seeing the design, “This is incredible, Selinal We’re totally in sync, I’ve been wanting to get some kind of token for the members of The Rose, but sadly designing is not my cup of tea and I couldn’t replace the right thing. But no wonder you’re the renowned jewelry designer Angel, your design is…”

At that moment, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching

“Angel?!” An excited and surprised voice filled the air.

Selina turned her head and saw Manuel’s face shift from joy to astonishment.

“You?” Manuel asked, disbelief edging his voice.

Manuel had caught the mention of the name Angel. Or had he misheard?

Selina responded with an icy laugh, “Why not me? Does Sokovis belong to you?” What rotten luck to run into Manuel right.

now!

“What’s up? Manuel Ashley asked. When she noticed Selina, she looked taken aback, “Selina… you’re here for dinner too?”

Ashley’s gaze flickered towards Lydia and Malcolm. Lydia she knew of, one could tell from his attire that she was not someone to be trifled with. Moreover, she was even more attractive than Ashley, which was truly infuriating!

And then there was Malcolm! So tall, so handsome! World–renowned as a top–tier lawyer! Back at the hotel, circumstances had been hectic and Selina interfered before Ashley could properly size Malcolm up. Now that she had a good look, she saw someone worthy of being her boyfriend.

Lydia didn’t mince words, “Jerks and bitches, spoiling our dinner vibe.”

Manuel clenched his teeth in anger, “Who are you calling jerks and lowlifes?”

“Please, why do some people take things so personally? I didn’t drop names. Can’t one even vent a bit around here? Right, Selina?”

“There’s no helping it. Some people are just shameless,

Selina added, perfectly in syne with Lydia’s sarcasm, and Manuel’s expression soured.

“Selina, Im so sorry, Ashley knows it’s all Ashley’s fault. Because of Ashley, you lashed out at Manuel. If it makes you feel better, Selina, you can yell, you can hit me. I’ll take it… Ashley’s face was the picture of innocent suffering, her eyes brimming with unshed tears, but all the while, she sneakily watched Malcolm.

Ashley certainly didn’t lack in looks, inheriting fine genes from Quinton and Sara, though she couldn’t rival Selina in beauty or figure. Yet, she played the victim so convincingly, and her acting could even dupe Selina.

Fooled by Ashley’s act, Manuel furned at Selina, “Selina, if you have a problem, come at me, don’t hurt Ashley! She’s innocent! How can you be so heartless? Ashley is your sister, too!

-Lydia could barely roll her eyes hard enough, fanning herself to dispel the toxicity, “Some people’s actress levels are so high, I feel sick from all the fake sweetness around. Some people can’t even catch a whiff but still can babble about conscience.
