Chapter 285-1
Instead of answering, Vanessa just stared at him—coldly, piercingly, and without the slightest emotion. That gaze was a far cry from the warm smile Irish was used to seeing on screen. It was like a thin blade that could pierce the heart."Y-you—" The words almost stopped in Irish's throat. Her breath caught, her body tensed. For the first time, she really didn't know what to do in front of her own idol.Today was definitely not her day. Two slaps in one day made one side of her face feel hot—as if embers were spreading from her cheek to her chest, then up to her head. Her emotions boiled over like boiling water."What does this mean, Vanessa Reid?" Irish's voice rose, accompanied by rapid breathing. "How dare you do this to me! I've been nice to you all this time. I even offered to take you with me. But this is how you repay me, huh?"Irish quickly took her cell phone out of her bag, the screen lighting up to indicate recording. Her thumb pressed the red button hurriedly, her eyes sti

Irish's heart was pounding. Her breathing felt heavy, as if the air around him was refusing to enter her lungs. This was the first time shehad seen a megastar from such a close distance. And not just any star—this woman was Vanessa Reid, someone shehad only seen on screen and in fashion magazines.Her eyes widened, unable to look away from her perfect face."No... Miss Vanessa... is it really you?" her voice trembled, half in awe and half in disbelief.Her feet moved forward slowly. Hesitant, but the urge to admire her kept him coming closer. With every step she took, the image became clearer.Vanessa looked stunning even without heavy makeup—her skin was soft and glowing under the store lights, with natural makeup that actually accentuated her charm. As a fellow woman, Irish couldn't help but be captivated.Vanessa raised her eyebrows slightly, noticing the rapid change in Irish's expression. A moment ago, the woman had been flushed with anger, but now that flush had softened, replac

Irish held her breath, her hand pressed against her now reddened cheek. Her eyes burned with anger, like embers doused with oil. Her eyebrows furrowed sharply, her jaw tightened.Meanwhile, Crysta stood upright in front of him. Her face was also red—a mixture of nervousness, fear, and anger.The sound of Irish's high heels echoed loudly as she approached. Each step felt like a threat. She stopped right in front of Crysta, staring at her intently from a very close distance.“You dared to slap me, huh?” Her voice was low but piercing. “You country girl. You don't even know who you just hit. You're asking for big trouble!”Irish's hand rose high, her fingers tense, ready to return the previous slap. But before she could move any further—smack!—a second slap landed on her cheek with an even louder sound.Irish's body trembled with emotion. Her face was bright red, her eyes wide with anger. Her jaw trembled, her breath coming in gasps like a wild animal ready to pounce.“How dare you!” she

"Ummmh... do I look bad?"Crysta held the hem of her dress, her fingers tugging at the fabric as if looking for small flaws. Her lips pursed slightly, her gaze shifting to the woman in front of her. Vanessa stood gracefully—every movement of her body looked perfect, from the way she straightened her back to the way her hair fell softly on her shoulders. And for Crysta, who was new to the outside world, the difference felt so vast.Vanessa's hands gently cupped Crysta's cheeks, forcing her to look directly into her eyes. Vanessa's gaze was warm, yet firm—as if she wanted to convey confidence through her touch."You are very sweet and innocent, Crysta. You have extraordinary charm. Don't belittle yourself."Crysta was silent for a moment. The light in her eyes flickered, as if she was weighing those words. Slowly, the corners of her lips lifted, forming a small, hesitant smile. She nodded twice, slowly but sincerely.Vanessa removed her hands from Crysta's cheeks and sighed softly. Her

"Wow... I didn't know Duskvale was this much fun!"Crysta laughed freely, her voice drowned out by the hustle and bustle of the shopping center. She spun around in the crowd, her skirt swaying lightly with her movements. Her eyes sparkled every time she saw something new—colorful lights, the smell of food, and the sound of people chatting warmly around her.Occasionally, she would half-run towards a shop window just because she saw a cute doll or a shiny dress behind the glass. Vanessa, who was walking behind her, could only smile, letting the girl enjoy her own world.For Crysta, this was the first time she had truly seen the outside world—not from behind walls, not in fear. After years of living in torment and pressure, this freedom felt like a dream that had finally come true.For the first time, Crysta's laughter was no longer to cover up the pain... but because she was truly happy.Vanessa, wearing a mask and sunglasses, only smiled slightly. From behind the lenses, her eyes watc

It had been two weeks since Crysta recovered from her illness. The girl was back to her old self—cheerful, energetic, and never short of ideas for fun. Almost every morning, she would knock on Harvey's office door carrying two cups of hot chocolate."Going to the park again, Harvey?" she said with sparkling eyes.However, her request often ended with a slight smile from the man. On the table, a pile of documents awaited his signature. Security reports, construction reports, and even a list of names to keep an eye on.Lately, Harvey's work as mayor of Duskvale had really piled up. He not only took care of the city, but also maintained its balance. Every night, he still led secret patrols with his men—making sure no spies from other countries had infiltrated. Duskvale did seem peaceful on the surface. But that tranquility was fragile. As long as Harvey was there, there would always be those who wanted to test the city's security.Due to Harvey's busy schedule, Crysta spent more time wi
