-victoria's pov-
I approached Damien at the charity gala my expression was that of concern.
Damien, I wanted to talk to you before Amelia arrives.... I discovered her family's business is failing - almost bankrupt, ( I knew it was a lie because I didn't find anything on her family still I had to do something fast ) I also discovered she was an orphan before they adopted her, do you think she's attending tonight's gala hoping your father's wealth will save them?
He smiled knowingly...
Actually Victoria - Amelia told me about their financial struggles herself plus she isn't an orphan. she's not after my father's wealth; her own fashion label is thriving and trending financially.
.
my expression changed from concerned to shock; my plan failed again ( inside me, something kept telling me he knew nothing about her).
But..... I thought her family's business was her only source of income. how's her fashion label successful?
he leaned in slightly: his voice low and amused -- Amelia's label is popular among the locals and online shoppers, she even turned down an offer from my dad for investments. she said she wanted to grow independently.
my eyes narrowed slightly.. I see, so she's some kind of fashion prodigy. how did she even start her level - no one magically gains customers
he smiled and I felt he was hiding a very vital information. " let's just say Ariana's passionate about her work and it shows in her designs, in her works.
Excuse me Victoria he said while shoving me aside I see her arriving
I turned to see her walking in, elegant in her own designs, it was a stunning red gown.
Beautiful, isn't she?, Excuse me...
he said it casually and walked towards Amelia. I watched as they greet each other warmly. I was pissed off.
Damien's completely smitten... I said in my thoughts time to speed up my plans, Tiffany should have those copied designs ready for Tomorrow's pratical
