Chapter 59
At the Jordan family mansion’s garden…
Tiffany sat under a jacaranda tree. The events that had transpired just moments ago still infuriated her.
It would be understandable if Drake transferred just some of the share to Charmine, but did he have to
transfer as much as fifteen percent? Charmine now owned as much as Tiffany, who was the ‘actual
heiress’ of the Jordan family!
Worse still,izens were ttering Charmine and idolizing her, while some became suspicious of the
interview Tiffany and Amelia had earlier. There was spection that Tiffany yed a part in this, and
they called her ‘fake’ and ‘unreal. If this went on, her ‘No.1 Supermodel’ title would be ruined in no time.
Her assistant, Veronica stood behind her in concern. “Prior to this, Guci had finalized you as their
magazine cover this season, but they had just called to say that they needed more time to choose
between you and Charmine.”,
“What?” blurted Tiffany, dumbfounded.
Guci was no humdrum brand. It was the luxury in the fashion world known for its luxurious, high-end,
and fancy touch. It was the go-to of the upper-ss people and worshipped by the working-ss. A
high-end international brand like Guci only invited supermodels and celebrities as their magazine cover,
yet they were considering Charmine for this season?
Charmine was only a newbie!
Watching Charnine and Grandpa sitting side by side in the “living room not far away, Tiffany gritted her
teeth.
“Tiffany, the most important thing now is to get a hold of the Guci ambassador contract. It’d be bad if
Charmine took it,” reminded Veronica.
Tiffany’s face turned pale and green. Of course she wanted to get it, but how was she supposed to fight
against this Diamond Boss? Putting aside the difference in their worth, the nude incident had cost
her dearly that she spent a lot of money on deleting posts and screenshots of her nude, as well as
bribing people with gifts. She had not been able to get rid of them all. 1
Also, Charmine was so popr that their poprity was almost on par with each other online. How was
Tiffany supposed to fight against Charmine?
Poprity… On par…
A thought suddenly urred to Tiffany. Her eyes sparkled as she spoke to Veronica, “Phone up the
management of Guci and say that instead of one, why not hire two models instead?”
“Tiffany, you’re saying that…” Veronica tried to follow her thpughts and eventually understood. “You’re
so smart!” she gushed. “No wonder you’re at the top of the modeling industry! I’ll do this right away.”
Since Guci was choosing between Tiffany and Charmine for the magazine cover of their Summer
collection, Tiffany’s reputation could be ruined if they settled for Charmine.
“If the two of them coborated, Tiffany could avoid the risk of
being dismissed. She could also use Charmine’s fame to be more popr. Of course, Tiffany was
a more experienced model; her shots would be more natural and refinedpared to a newbie like
Charmine. With that, the whole world could see how much better Tiffany waspared to Charmine.”
Charmine was only a wealthy nouveau riche. Tiffany would fight for the opportunity to get the two of
them shooting together.
It was then when Julian walked toward Tiffany. As he saw Veronica left in such a rush, he asked, “What
happened?”
“Nothing much, it’s just…” She instantly thought of something, and a small smile slowly formed on her
lips. “I found out earlier that Charmine’s manager was trying to get her the opportunity to shoot for
Guci’s Summer collection, but Guci had already decided to use me instead. I asked Veronica to phone
them up and ask if I could let Charmine tag along.”,
“What? She treated you so badly, yet you still want to share this opportunity with her?” said Julian,
obviously in disagreement. *
Tiffany held onto his arm. “Julian darling, she’s still my sister.
I did such a mean thing to her five years ago, and I just want to make up with her. Since her career is
just getting started, I have the duty to help her out as her sister.”
“You’re too kind. You’re so much better than that horrible Charmine! Now that I recall how she chased
after me in the past, I feel so disgusted.”
While listening to Julian, a light bulb went off inside her head. She knew Charmine had always fancied
Julian from as young a s three to eighteen years old; she had a crush on him for at least fifteen years!
How could Charmine stop loving him all of a sudden? She even deliberately targeted Julian on Twitter
and that most of her tweets were rted to Julian. She must have done it on purpose to get his
attention!
If Tiffany could use Julian to control Charmine and turn her into a stay-at-home wife…
With that thought, Tiffany’s heart thumped with excitement, but she covered it up with a guilty front as
she lowered her head.
“Oh… That’s right. Julian darling, Grandpa already transferred fifteen percent of the share to Charmine.
I’m afraid I can’t help you take the shares anymore.”
Julian frowned. Already? So soon?
This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
Five years ago, the Cabell and Jordan families forced Julian to marry the ugly and inelegant Charmine.
Though he hated Charmine for that, he had always wanted to get all the Jordan family shares and own
their business. He thought that he could get hold of her share if he were to follow through with their
marriage arrangement.
Once Tiffany noticed the worried expression on his face, she gently warned, “Julian darling, I think
Charmine still loves you. Think about it: Why is she still single even though she’s this Diamond Boss
now?
“Also, all her tweets are about you, even though she has so many followers. Perhaps she might be
trying to get your attention?
“If we resume the n we had five years ago, which was to make her fall all over for you, it’s likely that
she’ll transfer you her family share and the diamond mine!”
Julian’s eyes darkened; Tiffany was right. If he could get Charmine to marry him, the shares and the
diamond mine would belong to him. He could then coordinate with Tiffany to get hold of the rest of the
family share, and both of them could take over the entire Jordan family business!
He looked at Tiffany in awe. “Tiffany, you’re so smart! Are you sure you’re okay with me getting married
to her?”
Julian and Tiffany already had permission from Grandpa, and once they got hold of the engagement
token, they could get married.
Tiffany answered with a soft, understanding voice, “Julian darling, of course I’ll miss you, but I also
believe we’ll have our happy-ever-after once we get past the pain of this. I trust that you won’t fall for
her.”
Even if he did fall for Charmine, Tiffany would have ways to kill her. Tiffany would make sure everything
went ording to her n.
She continued, “Once you marry Charmine, you’ll get a hold of her diamond mine in addition to the
family shares we get. You’ll be the richest in Burlington by then. I’d do anything for you, even if
that means not being able to be with you for a while,” she muttered as she cuddled in his arms.
U
Julian felt a warm feeling spread throughout his entire being. H e felt so lucky to have found such an
understanding fiancé.
“Don’t worry, Tiffany. I won’t disappoint you,” he promised with a sincere look.
The sky was getting darker. Charmine had been chatting with her grandfather for quite a while now, but
she still had not figured out what he was trying to hide from her. It was not until Drake had fallen asleep
when she finally left the mansion. As she walked toward her motorbike, a shiny ck Rolls-Royce
pulled over right next to her.
The window rolled down, revealing Julian in the backseat. He was dressed in a white customized suit,
his face handsome and elegant like a true gent.
He looked at Charmine and said, “Get in the car. I’ll send you home.”
His tone sounded like amand, as though he was doing her a favor.
Charmine merely stared at him indifferently “You, send me? You? You think too highly of yourself.” With
that, she rolled her eyes and swung her long leg over her motorbike.
Julian was stunned at this behavior. Why did this girl who used to tag after him wherever he went—
talked to him with such an arrogant tone? It sounded like she was looking down o n him, too. Though
he was furious, he quickly reminded himself of the n. 1
He opened the door and went down. “Charmine, perhaps we could talk?”
“Talk? Is it about when you’re going to eat sh*t?” Charmine scoffed and started her motorbike. 1
When he noted that she was actually leaving, Julian ran in front of the bike to stop her. “Charmine,
can’t you talk to me? I know you’re still mad at me for what I did five years ago, but it’d been so long.
Why are you still mad? Can’t we sit down and have a civil conversation? Why do you have to be so
narrow -minded?”
“Me? Narrow-minded? Hah!” Charmineughed mockingly.“ You’re right, I’m narrow-mind. Whoever
hurt me, I’ll run over him.” With that, she stepped on the elerator and drove right toward Julian.
The motorbike was moving at the speed of a tiger, and it zipped in the direction where Julian was
standing.
