Chapter 314 Jacqueline on the Runway
"I''m out. I''m out." Lte''s voice came over the phone.
Yvonne smiled slightly, "Okay, I''ll meet you outside the venue then."
"Okay, I''ll call you when I get there," Lte replied.
When the call ended, Yvonne put her phone away. She couldn''t contain her joy and even more so
her anticipation toward the uing fashion show.
She had nned to go to the show by herself.
However, since she had two tickets, she realized that one would go to waste if she went alone.
Subsequently, before she went to sleepst night, she invited Lte to go with her.
Thankfully, Lte agreed to go with her.
That was also the reason for their conversation over the phone.
Soon, she reached the venue of the fashion show.
After Yvonne sent off Luke, she stood at the entrance o f the venue and waited for Lte. Ten
minutester, Lte showed up.
She ran over panting, "Yvonne, you must have waited for a long time. Sorry, there was a traffic jam."
"It’s okay, I haven''t been waiting for long. Let''s go inside." Yvonne took her hand and walked into the
venue.
Their seats were in the first row facing the runway. It was the perfect spot with the best and widest
view of the runway, where they could clearly see all the clothes the models were wearing.
For this show, Yvonne even brought her camera with her. She intended to take photos of all the
clothes that the models were wearing so that she could study the designs and patterns.
"I don''t even know how to describe how I feel right now! It''s the first time I''ve ever been to a runway
show. Your husband is really capable-he even managed to get two tickets for these premium seats."
Lte grabbed Yvonne''s arm and shook it with excitement.
Yvonne was adjusting her camera when Lte shook her arm so much that her camera nearly
flew out. Her face turned white at that moment.
In the end, she caught her camera with her quick reflexes and managed to avoid breaking her
camera.
Despite that, she was still quite startled by that incident and she took a while to exhale and calm
herself.
"Lyn, did you know that my heart nearly stopped?" Yvonne red at Lte sternly.
Lte knew she was at fault. She stuck her tongue out slightly. "I''m sorry, I know I was wrong. It
won''t happen again. I swear."

She held up three fingers and shook them.
Yvonne looked at her pitiful expression and found it both infuriating and amusing, "Alright, stop
talking. The runway show is starting."
"It''s starting already?" Lte was shocked when the lights suddenly went dark.
Yvonne pulled on Lte''s sleeve to signal to her to keep quiet.
When Lte realized this, she quickly closed her mouth and stared intently at the runway.
One by one, the models walked out d in exquisite haute-couture, each of them was breathlessly
beautiful.
Yvonne could even hear the numerous gasping sounds around her. She quickly raised her camera
and started snapping the pictures of the model, afraid that she would miss even one.
However, when she was about to take the photo of the model strutting for the show''s finale, she
stopped before she pressed the shutter. She pulled her camera down swiftly and looked at that
model with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
Was that... Jacqueline?
Why was she on the runway?
Wasn''t she a ballet dancer?
"Jacqueline, what''s wrong?" Lte noticed her friend''s sudden indiscretion and couldn''t help
asking out of curiosity. 3
Yvonne ignored the question. Her eyes were fully focused on Jacqueline who was smiling
beautifully and radiantly above them.
Yvonne''s gaze was so obvious that Jacqueline could definitely sense it. When Jacqueline lowered
her head and took a nce, she spotted Yvonne sitting in the first row.
Simrly, Jacqueline also didn''t expect Yvonne to be here so her smile faltered for a second.
However, she quickly adjusted to the circumstances and shed a brighter smile while she walked
slowly down the runway like a queen.
Yvonne was stupefied when she saw Jacqueline acting. She even felt that Jacqueline had literally
lowered the standard of the outfit. She did not raise her camera at all until Jacqueline finished her
walk. When the other models came out during the curtain call, Yvonne finally raised her camera for
a few shots.
"Is that Liam?" Yvonne looked at the Caucasian man who stepped out for the curtain call and was
holding Jacqueline''s hand. Yvonne''s eyes were filled with curiosity.
He was just like how Joe described him. The man was dressed all fancy and dandy but he did little
to hide his phndering nature.
The man''s eyes wandered all over the models during the curtain call. At one nce, anyone could
easily tell his less-than-pleasant intentions. Yvonne didn''t even know how blind Jacqueline had to
be to fall for such a man.
"Yvonne, what exactly were you looking at just now? Why did you react so strangely?"
After the curtain call, they were on their way to the restroom when Lte held Yvonne''s arm and
couldn''t help asking that question.
Yvonne opened her mouth and was just about to answer when she spotted something. Her
expression changed slightly. She pulled Lte along with her and hid around the corner.
"What''s wrong?" Lte was still puzzled.
Yvonne made a shushing motion and pointed to the front, signaling for Lte to look.
Lte stuck her head out curiously and froze. "Isn''t that the model and the jewelry designer who
just closed the show?"
Yvonne mumbled, "Don''t talk, just watch."
"Oh." Lte nodded obediently.
Outside the restroom not far from the two observers, Jacqueline was pulling Liam and had a furious
look o n her face. She was shouting like a lunatic, "You can''t leave! Don''t you remember what you
promised me?"
"Let go." Liam shrugged her off and looked at her with disdain. "Promise? I remember that I only
promised to get you the opportunity to use the show to get back into the ballet world and nothing
more."
"No, how can you say that? You clearly said you were going to call off your engagement with that
woman! How can you go back on your word!" Jacqueline raised her fist in anger to hammer at the
man''s chest.
The man pushed her away impatiently, "That''s enough. I did say those words, but why did you
Conrads have to go against the Lancaster family? Do you think I''ll offend the Lancasters just for
you?"
"No, that''s not it." Jacqueline shook her head emotionally. "It''s Henry Lancaster, he..."
"Shut up." Liam simply cut her off. "I don''t want to hear from you anymore. The feud between the
Conrad family and the Lancaster family is an unchangeable fact. It''s useless for you to exin any
further. After tonight, I''m going back to get married. As you know, I don''t just want to be a jewelry
designer. I want to join the elites, and you can''t satisfy me anymore."
Jacqueline began to panic when she heard that he was leaving. She quickly hugged Liam. "Liam,
don''t leave. Don''t marry that woman. You love me, you love me!"
"I do love you, but I love money more, can''t you see?" Liam said while he lifted her chin and looked
into her eyes.
After he said that, he sneered and let her go. He took out a brightly-colored handkerchief and wiped
his hands before he walked away humming an unknown song.
Jacqueline crouched on the ground and cried as she watched his back.
Around the corner, Lte eximed, "What a soap opera! You can''t even see this on TV. No
wonder I saw the model smiling sweetly at the jewelry designer. So, they were in such a
rtionship."
"Their rtionship is far moreplicated than you think," Yvonne said as she looked at Jacqueline
who was crouching.
Lte blinked. "Yvonne, are they your acquaintances?"
"Pretty much." Yvonne curled her lips icily.
They weren''t only acquaintances-they were her enemies.
"That''s why you reacted so strongly when this model came out. So you know each other. Do you
want to go over to say hello?" Lte asked.
