Minnie drew out her words with a playful lilt, her fingers adorned with sparkling nail art gracefully moving

to form a fist.

The director caught the hint right away. "Got it!" With a respectful bow, she quickly peeled the mask off Minnie's face. "I'll fetch Mrs. Lydia for you. Just a second."

In the plush VIP lounge of Sunny Glow Beauty Salon, Minnie lounged on the couch, fresh from her facial, looking every bit the vibrant rose she was.

However, the smile playing on her lips was not one of sweetness. It was a cocktail of pride, a dash of scorn, and a hint of fierce intensity.

Love might make a girl's brain go fuzzy, but even though she was head over heels for Walter, she would not let her crew get too cheeky.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door. Minnie straightened up, her heart racing but her voice steady as she called, "Enter."

"That's wonderful, truly wonderful." Lydia clutched Minnie's hand, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Julia, I caught the buzz about you and Walter at the cafe. You've got to grab this chance. Imagine having Walter's baby soon. Even if the Gordons weren't thrilled about you at first, they'd open their doors wide for the sake of their future grandson." The thought of finally becoming Walter's mother-in-law sent Lydia's heart racing.

However, her words only reminded Minnie of her own troubles.

"Mom, you're getting ahead of yourself. The Gordon heir is already on the way with Evangeline. No matter what I do, I can't beat that."

Lydia waved off the concern with a flick of her wrist. "So having the baby!

"Right now, she's on shaky ground. We just need to push right?" Lydia glanced at her daughter, Julia, who was al
