The model Keira, whom Joel brought along, had recently gained a lot of fame. She starred in a reality show, which caused her popularity to soar.

She was introduced to Joel, and they quickly hit it off. Joel soon acknowledged her as his girlfriend.

With her newfound connections, Keira’s job offers improved significantly, and everywhere she went, people catered to her.

She prided herself on her looks and figure, believing herself to be top–tier.

Just moments ago, all eyes had been on her, but the second Samantha walked in, the attention vanished.

A wave of jealousy and anger surged through her.

But she wasn’t clueless either.

She knew Samantha was a legendary and powerful woman in Betrico and that she couldn’t afford to provoke her.

Samantha’s jewelry company was currently looking for an endorser, and Keira had hoped Joel could introduce her to Samantha so she could try to secure the job.

If she could land this, it would undoubtedly push her into the top ranks this year.

Now, the opportunity was right in front of her.

Of course, Keira, a mere model, had no idea about Jeremiah’s true identity; she only guessed he was probably also a political scion.

She had picked up some hints about the relationship between Samantha and Jeremiah from the earlier conversation.

This kind of relationship dynamic was nothing new to her, having seen plenty in the entertainment industry.

Keira kept sneaking glances at Samantha, who was sitting on the sofa sipping her vodka.

Seizing the right moment, she took her wine glass and walked over.

Samantha sat on the sofa, silent, with her eyes downcast.

Her mind was already elsewhere.

Her little “toy” had been acting up, throwing tantrums and being difficult, which she found amusing.

After all these years, he was still not obedient.

She wondered how she should remind him that she was the unshakable force he relied on.
