In a way, Raymond was definitely impressive–he’d managed to bring Yolanda, Harriet, and Quinlyn together. Little did he know the tension brewing among the three, he even cheerfully asked them to sit closely.

“Nice, all beauties! Let me take a picture of you all together,” he said and snapped a photo of the three of them without hesitation.

At that moment, the director approached, looking for Raymond to appear on camera and help calm the growing buzz online. So, Raymond had to step away for a while.

“You all enjoy yourselves for now,” he said. Then he turned to Yolanda, pointing at Quinlyn. “I think she’s a good fit for the new film. Have a look at her for me.”

With that, he turned and walked away, leaving the three of them by the lounge chair with expressionless faces.

Quinlyn was okay; aside from being speechless, she quickly adapted. As for Harriet and Yolanda, they jumped away from her as if she were a dangerous snake.

“Whether you’re charming or cunning, getting this far shows skill. But don’t think you can use Raymond as a stepping stone. He’s mine. If you touch him in any way, I won’t let you off.”

Quinlyn looked up, meeting Yolanda’s determined gaze. This spiteful woman seemingly has special feelings for Raymond. Anyway, that has nothing to do with me, she thought.

As Quinlyn lowered her eyes and stayed quiet, Yolanda felt a sense of relief. She adjusted her skirt and gracefully stood up. “Harriet, wait here. I’ll call for you in a moment.”

Watching Yolanda leave, Harriet suddenly felt her breath catch. It was as if the air had thinned, making her increasingly
