“Damn it! Mom, that is too blunt!” He put his fingers over her mother to shut her up. “That is too loud, someone might hear you!”

“Your words sound as if you have been watching porn lately .”

“You!”

“Am I lying?”

“You ungrateful son! Eat and keep shut!”

“Thanks my beautiful mother ”
He took the spoon and scooped it to his mouth. A knock was heard and slowly the door was pushed open. Miss Jones came inside and froze with the food in her hands when she saw his mother.

“I will be going, ” Olivia coughed awkwardly. She did not want to cause any more chaos in their lives.

“Halt!” His mother said. “Take those poison with you!”
She said with rage. This shameless woman dared to bring her son poison? So Cunning!

“Olivia ” He stood up and chased after her until he dragged her arms. “Don't mind what my mother said, please!”
He could not lose someone he loved again because of his mother's bad mouth.

“ Mr. Armis, what is it that you want?”

“I am so sorry about my mother's attitude. ”

“Why do you say sorry? ” She took a look at his legs and smirked. As thought so, he recovered quickly and wanted her to serve him.

“I can see Mr. Armis is perfectly healed then our deal does not hold anymore. Hope not to see you again, Mr. Armis!” Olivia sheepishly smiles and leaves the hospital.
That man lured her into being his servant, he deserved beatings!

“MOM!”

“You!”

“Am I lying?”

“You ungrateful son! Eat and keep shut!”

“Thanks my beautiful mother ”

“Why do you say sorry? ” She took a look at his legs and smirked. As though, he recovered quickly and wanted her to serve him.

“I can see Mr. Armis is perfectly healed then our deal does not hold anymore. Hope not to see you again, Mr. Armis!” Olivia sheepishly smiles and leaves the hospital.
That man lured her into being his servant, he deserved beatings!

“MOM!”
He yelled at the top of his voice.

Meanwhile, At the boutique.
The two duos strode into the boutique with their hands crossed over each other. They both wore matching blouses complimented with a mini skirt and black high knee boots. Their fingers are beautified with golden rings on each pair of fingers.

“Madam, this way please ” The shop attendant smiled and led them inside. One of them was their VIP customer and the other, the big miss.
They had to treat them with their best service and behavior. They stopped at the dress collection.

“We have different styles from high top brands. Have a look at them ”
She said as she stood at a corner in case she would be needed.

“These dresses are so cute. ” Valerie smiled and went ahead to pick one while Alexa halted at the design of one of the dresses.
Her eyes could not go off them when it was sighted.

“Miss, I see you are interested in this ocean blue dress?” Another attendant asked.
The Ocean blue dress is one of a kind. Very elegant and expensive. Many shoppers gawk at it but no one has been able to get it because of its price tag.
Made of real diamonds and ruffles at the ankle. A slight cut at the shoulders and sewn with thick yet comfy mesh. The craft itself is worth a trillion dollars.
Sewn by the mysterious designer of ages, it had been ranked the first most expensive dress in the entire world and fortunately, they were able to purchase it.
The color of the dress signified femininity and purity. With a large bow on the left side.

“No, I am not. It just reminds me of someone. ” She confessed as her fingers went through the ruffles. Her mother was one of the best fashion designers in the world and this resembles one of her missing creations.
Because of her family's bias about fashion designers, her mother went into hiding and created her last dress before her whole career was destroyed.


Because of her family's bias about fashion designers, her mother went into hiding and created her last dress before her whole career was destroyed.

“This dress particularly held some emotions. Emotions that are unspeakable, tears, sadness, and anger all held in a simple gown. ”
She explained further. The look on the customer's face made her further explain.

“Hmmm. Thanks ”Alexa sighed and followed Valerie to look for another dress.
She received an invitation to the green ball tomorrow morning from Editor Su. She was to commence training and all but went on some free days.
Alexa did not want to disappoint Editor Su since being asked to come meant a whole lot of meaning to her.
This ball itself was only for elites, fashion designers, and some high models, and for her to get an invitation meant that Editor Su thought highly of her. So wearing a common dress to that party would rain insults on her.

“We give discounts too ”

“Hmm ”Alexa moved on along with Valerie to the shoe sections.

“Pack this up for me,” A familiar voice said as he brought out the big boss's golden VIP card. He swiped it on the cashier and it beeped.

“Thank you ” He smiled and secretly put on the black sunglasses and followed them. He was sent to monitor her activities and protect her.
He held the black bag in his left hand and walked to the glass shoe section.

“This is better than the last one I saw. Have you seen anything you like?”

“No ”Alexa said sadly. The only dress that melted her heart cost a fortune to purchase. Even if she borrows a loan she would not be able to pay it off even till the next life.

“This way ma'am. ” They were directed once more to a shoe showroom that had many collections of glass slippers.

“This is from France ”

“That from Germany "

“And that from London ”
The attendant introduced some of the glass heels present for sale.

“What of that one?”Alexa pointed at the silver shoe.

“That would be perfect!” She wrapped it up for her.
After a few hours of shopping, they entered the car and drove off to the bar.

In the bar.
“Cheers!” Olivia smiled and gulped a whole glass of whiskey. She coughed and poured more into her glass.
She needed to celebrate. Tomorrow, all her life difficulties would disappear and she could start a new life with her son.

“Hmmm. Pour for me!” Valerie said as she kept drinking more glass. The three females were in the most expensive bar drinking away.

“Men are scums!” Olivia yelled at her phone when it rang. “What is it!”

“Olivia? What is all that noise?” Anthony called. He wanted to explain the hospital scene and sent his assistant to find out her location but she couldn't.
All he had was her number and decided to try his luck, and to his surprise, she picked up the call.

“Who are you? ” She murmured and fell asleep. She was wasted with alcohol.

“Olivia? I am coming to get you!” He hung up, took his jacket and car keys, and went ahead to get her.

“She is so wasted. Olivia? ”Ruyue shook her and when she heard no reply, stood up. “I will be going!” She pinched her cheeks and staggered out of the bar.

~Ten Minutes later ~
“Olivia!” Anthony ran inside and held her head. Her temperature was extremely hot and her face was all red. He examined the floor and found out that there were twenty empty bottles on the ground.

“Let me go!” Olivia mumbled and slapped his hands from hers. She sat up with her eyes half-opened. “Who is this handsome devil?”
Anthonyh choked on her words and coughed. Did she just call him a devil?

“It is me!” He shrieked and held his breath. Her mouth stunk of different concussion of liquor. He lifted her with her arms and carried her to the car.
When she heard the click of the private room door, she woke up from her sleep and held the table as support.
Alexa staggered out of the room and leaned against the white wall. She reached for her phone to answer the ringing call but couldn't.

“Damn it! It is ten pm already?” She yawned and kept moving. She did not want to drink too much but could not help it.
The temptation was just too much seeing that in the past, she was a big alcoholic person.
Luckily, she could get to the main entrance with her drunken movement, but then looked confused with which one was her car.

“Which one, now?!”Alexa asked herself and staggered more. Her movements were supported by a broad chest that held her tightly. She sniffed the scent of the man and gave up her willpower. She fainted and drifted to sleep when she recognized the owner of the scent.

“You wouldn't stop making trouble for me ” Ray smiled at her and helped her into the car and the bedroom.

“Why did you drink?” He questioned her and helped her remove her boots. He was mad at her knowing she dared to drink alcohol even with the child in her stomach.
Alexa heard his cold words and shivered. She smirked and walked to the bed. Collapsing on the bed, she opened the last button on her shirt.

“Do you want to know why I drank?” She tapped her hands on the bed meaning he should come forward. Ray completed the last step and closed the gap between them.
