    Chapter 1979


    Just as she had clicked shut herptop, Ivy’s phone erupted into a symphony of rings. It was a call from


    Nn.


    She hesitated for a moment but decided to answer it anyway.


    Despite having promised Balfour to keep her distance from Nn, answering a call from an old


    schoolmate seemed harmless enough.


    “Hey, Nn.”


    “Hey Ivy, you busy right now?”


    “Not at all. What’s up?”


    “Well, Ivy, I’m just giving it another shot… Are you sure you don’t want toe work with us?” Nn’s


    voice still held a hint of hope. “The Harris Group may not be top tier, but we’ve got a lot to offer. You


    sure you won’t reconsider?”


    The position of Advertising Director at the Harris Group was a coveted spot, but Ivy’s promise to


    Balfour was clear- She had to keep a distance from Nn. “Nn, I really can’t join. I appreciate the


    offer, but I have to decline.”


    Nn fell silent for a moment before letting out a sigh, “Alright then. But Ivy, since you identally


    scratched ra’s face, she can’t do the photoshoot for our uing ad campaign. We’re scrambling


    to find a recement. If we don’t deliver it on time, thepany’s looking at a hefty fine for breach of


    contract.”


    “What?” Ivy felt a pang of guilt at the thought of causing such trouble.


    Nn had always been kind to her, often lending a helping hand when she needed it. She really didn’t


    want to add to his burdens.


    “Nn, I’m sorry. Is there anything I can do to make it right?”


    Hearing her concern, Nn chuckled, “Sure,e work for us.”

    Ivy was in a bind, “Um… Nn, I really can’t join the Harris Group. How much is the fine? I’ll cover it.””


    Even as she said this, she wasn’t sure if she could afford it.


    Nnughed, “Silly! I don’t want your money, I want you.”


    “What?” Once again, Ivy was thrown into confusion. “Nol-Nn, I’m married already.”


    Nn couldn’t help butugh out loud on her response, “Ivy, what on earth are you thinking about? Is


    that how you see me?”


    “No, no, Nn, I… I was just kidding!” Realizing her misunderstanding, Ivy scrambled for an excuse to


    hide her embarrassment.


    Nn’sughter subsided, “Ivy, what I meant was, ourpany is in dire need of a suitable model for


    the ad. ra can’t shoot it with her injured face, and you’re her sister. You two look alike to some


    extent, so how about you finish the ad for us?”


    “Me in amercial?” Ivy frowned lightly, doubting herself. “But I’ve never done any ad work before,


    and I’m not a known face. Wouldn’t that be inappropriate?”


    “Ivy, you can do it. If you don’t help us out, ourpany’s going to be out of pocket big time, and we’re


    not talking chump change here.”


    Agreeing to shoot amercial for the Harris Group meant that she’d inevitably be in contact with


    Nn. If Balfour found out, he’d surely be upset.
