Yet, if he hadn't gotten involved with that woman, how could he have been played at all? Though she once harbored feelings for Vincent, they were now fading. Cutting her losses was clearly the smartest move.
“It’s okay.” Brittany knew Ophelia was hurting, even if she didn’t show it. After all, Ophelia had invested genuine emotions. And because of that woman, she’d becthe butt of Craneville’s jokes! “Forget it, just cshopping with me.” Ophelia didn’t want to dwell on it any longer and pulled Brittany toward their favorite boutiques.
The two chatted and laughed, completely in sync.

A sales associate brought over afternoon tea and the Ey EES of the magazine.
Ophelia’s shopping style was all or nothing. She practically cleared the store's inventory.

After finishing up his work for the afternoon, Isaac called her. “Where are you?” “Out with Ophelia, shopping.” Brittany gave him the address.

Looking up, she realized the man she’d run into was someone she’d seen at a wedding banquet.
Stepping back from Isaac’s embrace, her pretty face flushed with apology. “Sir, are you alright?” Isaac waved it off. “I'm fine.” He was in a hurry to meet Brittany and brushed past Ivy, striding away.

Adored for her beauty. For her status.
Being ignored was a first for her.
The maid caught up with Ivy, relieved to find her unharmed. “Princess, are you okay?” Ivy shook her head; she was more than okay.
“Princess, the Lynette family has found their daughter, and they're hosting a welcoming party. Her Majesty suggests you represent the royal family and offer congratulations.” Ivy was scornful. “The Lynette family is fond of a bastard child?” “Apparently, she’s the daughter of Yuri’s first love. He's very fond of her, and on their first meeting, he gifted her a present worth billions.” Money was no object to Ivy, so she was indifferent.
“Check the mall's security footage forlater. | need to find someone.” She couldn't wait to get to know the man she'd bumped into.
“Understood.” Isaac arrived at the store.
Ophelia was still trying on clothes.
Seeing him, Brittany poured a cup of coffee. “That was quick.” “I wanted to see you.”
