Chapter 23
****Analogy.The scene that happened at Uniqlo looped in Carl's head inside the Taxi. He wore a plain Navy shirt and a pant trouser that was neatly pressed— minimalist. The divorce papers nestled on his lap, bumping as the beat-up taxi steered through the city. Betty was stabbed in the back by those she trusted as friends. They bailed before securities could get them, leaving her at the Bull's-eyes of the crisis they caused. They might have thought she would be arrested, locked up and detained till someone would pay for the ruined dress....which is impossible. She's from a broke family...or Maybe they assumed she was going to work her ass off at Uniqlo to clear their mess and then she'll miss the Audition. She trusted them but they betrayed her heartlessly. They literally caged her because there was no way she was going to leave Uniqlo without paying for the dress. Carl had paid for the damaged dress and got another one for her. She jumped on him, spilling tears and crying gratitu

It felt as though the air just got punched out of her lung. Her last hope shattered like glasses, tears stung her eyes, spilling down like raindrops.She trembled vigorously like the fabrications had electrocuted her.Her lips parted to say something but nothing came forth— just air.She opened her mouth to speak again but her voice trembled in her throat, cracking out like her throat had turned grimy.“I...I didn't..”Jane snapped.Her hand drove through the air with dangerous energy, manicured nails moving in a blurr.She hated Betty!Hated the glaring fact that she was beautiful. She's a bitter sweet enemy— an imposter.She's Bittered that Betty outshines her.And why she was acting all crazy was because she wasn't picked as the first runner up in the first audition. She won third, missing her chance to cast in as the main actress on a movie set.The directors said they needed someone naturally beautiful. Wasn't she beautiful enough?Betty was picked for the role.She had boasted

The accusation hit betty like a mallet jamming against the hunch of a Camel. She wanted to cry out in pain, to yell that she didn't do it, to say something to defend herself but she was pinned by shock... awestruck, seeing the way Jane was spitting venom, the person she called a friend, the girl who she'd hugged minutes ago. Her jaw fell wide, nearly hitting the pavement. She wanted to speak again but reality hit her harder, her body was vibrating...what could she say to defend herself..she stood right in front of the thousand dollar gown. She didn't even touch it. She didn't. People gathered around, fingers pointing at her like she was a criminal about to be stoned to death. She had only seen something like this in movies but it was happening to her at the moment. Tears burned in her eyes but it was yet to spill. She looked at Jane. She was cold, dark eyes filled with venom, and then she looked at Mia. She just stood there, still in shock of Jane's unexpected plot, like a woman

Chapter 19
Jane sneaked away from her atrocious act like nothing happened. Carl squinted on the Armani Prive gown. It was really damaged. Really bad. “What's her intention? Is she dumb to know that camera is everywhere? Rich pervert with snail brain!" Carl cursed under his breath.Jane smoothened his gown and wore a sweet smile. She met Mia and Betty, hands crossed behind her back, hiding the Blade.“... everything here costs fortunes. $15,000? A piece of gown?" Jane Walked in to hear Betty lamenting about how expensive the dresses were.She stepped closer to her, the fake devilish grin on her lips unwavering. Her expression twisted with perfectly practiced concern...but deep in her heart, it was pity...ugly.She began, arms latched onto Betty shoulder as though she was a close ally... Like she wasn't wishing she could stab her deep in her chest. How could Betty know that the smiles surrounding her was fake, practiced...to demolish her.“Oh Betty...well.. don't worry, we gat your back, babe. W
Chapter 18
The tires of a Taxi screeched to a stop in front of Uniqlo boutique.Carl stepped out of the front seat along with three young girls who had been ranting nonstop inside of the Car, at the back seat. They poured out like bees, all looking classic and extravagant but one of them in a plain and ordinary gown looks naive. She was the most beautiful among them, gentle in her appearance. While the others wore Heels and colorful gowns, on her feet were pairs of old sandals. Looks like she was forced by her cliques to come to a place like Uniqlo.Uniqlo, as the name sounds— it's Unique. They sell the latest clothes from popular brands like Gucci, Versace, Chanel...Those who patronize the boutique are people who spend thousands on cottons. In order words, It is not a Place for an average man, not a place for those who peek at their account balance before spending.The three girls are all artists, upcoming movie stars.“Here is our token, Old man.” Mia, one of the girls who was the loudest in
