Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 356

Once Elliot was gone, Queenie pulled a face in disgust as she scrubbed her hands with a wet wipe. "Let's go," she said to the driver.

A few minutes later, the car pulled to a stop before a beauty salon.

With her bag in hand, Queenie strolled in.

In one of the VIP rooms, there was a woman sprawled out across the bed while undergoing a full-body treatment.

"Miss Kramer," Queenie greeted.

Violet opened her eyes and waved her hand at the employee servicing her. "Leave us."

"All done?" Violet languidly asked, not even moving to sit up.

"Yes." Queenie frowned. "However…"

"What is it?"

"Elliot Watts does not look like a reliable man. I am afraid he will ruin our plan."

Violet let out a scornful chuckle. "Men like him can be pacified with some money. Anyone who can be dealt with using money is the most reliable person on earth."

Queenie did not reply to that.

Violet turned to look at her. "Is there anything else?"

"Miss Kramer, what if we get caught?" Queenie asked.

"As long as none of us say a word about it, it will be fine," answered Violet. "It is even more impossible for the person being paid to tell anyone about this either. Anyway, your teacher is one of the judges. Do you think he is happy you lost to someone else? Perhaps you are trying to say you are not confident in your skills. Well?"

"I am confident, but…"

"Confidence is everything. I am only helping you get rid of a pesky problem. Drawing according to someone else's art style is a great challenge. You must conserve your energy for the final round so that you can stomp that witch into the ground!"

At the word "witch", Violet clenched her jaw hard in anger.
