    ra whipped around and dialed a number on her phone, her finger tapping the screen with practiced


    urgency. “Hey Zack, Interested in getting the scoop on the CEO of the Harris Group?”


    “How juicy is it?” came the voice on the other end, a hint of excitement threading through the


    skepticism.


    “Let’s meet up and talk details.”


    All the while, no one caught wind of ra’s arrival and her swift departure.


    The photoshoot went off without a hitch, wrapping up smoothly after three non-stop hours.


    “Ivy, today was all about the still shots for the campaign. There’s some promotional footage we still


    need to capture. We’ll have to schedule another session with youter.”


    Typically, these promotional clips would be shot on the same day, but Nn had told the staff not to


    push Ivy too hard. It would be best to set another time for the rest of the shoot.


    The crew was, of course, going to follow the boss’s orders.


    Ivy nodded understandingly. “Sure, let’s exchange contacts and we can set something upter.”


    “Sounds good.” The crew member pulled out his phone and they connected on social media.


    As Ivy was about to leave, Nn called out to her.


    “Ivy, let me give you a lift home.”


    Ivy hadn’t yet figured out how to exin this to Balfour. If he saw Nn dropping her off, it would only


    stir up trouble.


    After hesitating for a moment, Ivy shook her head. “No thanks, Nn. I can just grab a cab. It’s super


    easy.”


    “How could I let ady take a cab all alone? Ivy, you’ve done me a huge favor. The least I can do is


    take you out for dinner!” Nn insisted with a smile, not taking her decline for an answer. “Come on,


    my old friend. Don’t turn me down.”


    With no good reason to refuse, Ivy could only agree his proposal.


    They left the office together and Nn escorted her to a quaint little bistro.


    Ivy’s memory was suddenly jogged when standing at the entrance. This was the very ce Nn had


    brought her to back in their high school days.


    “I can’t believe it. After all these years, it hasn’t changed a bit,” she mused.


    Meanwhile in the Dunhills’ house.


    “Dad! You must help me with this!”


    ra stormed into the house, calling out as she entered.


    “What’s all this about?” Tessa, hearing theint, hurried out of the kitchen.


    ra’s irritation red at the sight of her, who reminded her of Ivy. She shot Tessa a re before


    heading to the study.


    Pushing open the door, she found Finn as she expected.


    “Dad!” ra waltzed in, her voice a mix of petnce and annoyance. “You need to do something about


    Ivy!”


    Finn was engrossed in his work. He looked up with a touch of irritation. “She’s cut ties with our family,


    hasn’t she?/What she does is now none of our business.”

    Ever since Ivy had handed over three million to the Dunhill family, Finn had washed his hands of her,


    uninterested in (vy’s affairs.


    “Dad! I don’t want anything to do with her either, but she’s stealing my gigs now!”


    ra recounted the recent incident with a pout, “She deliberately scarred my face so I couldn’t do the


    shoot. Then she had the nerve to take my spot and do the ad herself! Daddy, this is outright sabotage!”


    Finn’s raged immediately at her words. “What? Ivy dared to snatch yourmercial? Hold on, when


    did she even start doing ads?”
