Sasha Shaw was montarily stunned, then lowered her head, wanting to walk past quickly, but was recognized by the woman.
"Stop!" Azure Hollis turned her head and called out coldly.
Sasha instinctively paused her step, pretending not to hear, but Azure grabbed her arm from behind.
"She’s calling you!"
Mr. Hollis turned, "Your friend?"
Azure squinted, sneering, "What do you an my friend, Dad, you really don’t recognize her? She’s your ex-lover!" Her voice was not low, instantly attracting many curious gazes.
With Sasha’s brashness, she could have easily shaken them off, but inexplicably felt inferior, cowardly lowered her head, her body seed paralyzed, no strength to protest.
Mr. Hollis squinted, staring at Sasha’s face for a long ti, slightly displeased, "I don’t know her, stop ssing around."
"I’m ssing around?" Azure recalled her recent ordeals, growing angrier, "If it wasn’t for this bitch, we and the Aldrin Family wouldn’t have gotten into so many troubles..." She glared fiercely at Sasha, not realizing that behind that hefty figure soone stood, before finishing, was suddenly shoved back several steps, stabilized only after crashing into a sofa.
"Was the slap I gave you last ti not painful enough?" Ruby Sullivan glared at her, intimidating.
Azure instinctively felt her face ache, yet stubbornly insisted, "Ruby Sullivan, how long do you think you can be arrogant? Who doesn’t know that after your dad woke up, he handed the company back to Rhonda Sullivan. When Ethan Sterling doesn’t want you anymore, you’ll be crying."
Ruby smiled, "Before that, I hope you won’t cry too badly."
"Hmph." Azure shot her a look, hooking onto her father’s arm, "Dad, I’ve lost my appetite, let’s switch restaurants."
"Wait." Mr. Hollis withdrew his arm from his daughter’s hand, looked at Ruby Sullivan with a smile, "Is this Mrs. Sterling? Seeing is believing, truly a great beauty. My daughter can’t speak well; if there was a collision just now, please forgive."
Azure looked incredulous at her father speaking such humble words to Ruby Sullivan, "Dad, have you gone crazy?"
Mr. Hollis turned and reprimanded, "Nonsense, quickly apologize to Mrs. Sterling and her friends?" He kept signaling to Azure.
Azure clenched her silver teeth and stalemated with her father, but she knew inside that her always-indulgent father wouldn’t let her suffer this grievance for no reason. Finally, amidst Mr. Hollis’s frantic signals, she grudgingly lowered her head, "Sorry, I... mistook soone." Finished, she left covering her face in grievance.
Mr. Hollis frowned at his daughter’s back, turned to Ruby Sullivan, changing to a smiling face, "Since it’s a misunderstanding, please clarify to Mr. Sterling, we’re all friends, not worth damaging relations over such trivial matters."
Ruby Sullivan was unimpressed, "A big shot like President Hollis hasn’t been publicly humiliated before, naturally feels it’s trivial, no bla to you, people need to experience it to empathize." She finished, not caring whether Mr. Hollis’s face turned black or green, pulled Sasha to the bathroom.
She said nothing, just stood by the sink waiting for her to co out, like a personal guardian.
Sasha washed her hands, smiled at her, "Won’t make your man resentful, right?"
"You think why that old man is afraid? Surely he tasted bitterness; things are already tangled, a bit more won’t affect." Ruby Sullivan spoke nonchalantly, not wanting her friend to overthink.
Sasha hooked her arm, rubbing against her, playfully said, "I’ve decided, I’ll create my own brand, make your perfu bottle the first launch, we’ll climb to life’s peak together!"
"Absolutely." Ruby patted her hand, resembling a nouveau riche carrying a young lover, yet their silly smiles were incomparably beautiful.
Ruby Sullivan’s perfu mainly focused on versatility, aid to highlight modern won’s courage to break conventions and live boldly, with top notes of intense jasmine and tuberose floral scent, the heart notes transform to sweet white peach fragrance, and the final base note becos cool grass scent, reminiscent of a forest after rainfall.
Floral scent is elegant and intellectual, fruit scent youthful and playful, the final neutral grass scent showcases won’s resilience and stubbornness.
Originally entirely unrelated three scents, yet Ruby Sullivan integrated them, naturally, Tina also contributed.
Sasha noted all key points, intending to design a series completely based on this perfu.
"Have you decided on a na for your perfu?"
Ruby Sullivan smirked, "I."
"I?"
"I am who I am, a unique fla, nothing highlights this the better than this simple word, unorthodox, fearless of opinions, just be myself."
Sasha gave a thumbs up, "I’ll push aside the rest of my work when I get back, luckily you left your savings for , just right to catch up with your entrepreneurial pace!"
When the sisters left the restaurant, they still had undisguisable excitent on their faces, as if about to embark on so grand venture.
Ruby Sullivan was brought by Howard; Sasha, wanting a drink, didn’t drive, as they stood at the restaurant entrance about to call a cab, Ruby Sullivan’s phone rang, it was Ethan Sterling calling.
She picked up the call, hadn’t spoken yet, heard from the other end, "Look to your left."
Ruby Sullivan turned her head, saw his car, hung up, and grabbed Sasha’s hand, "We don’t need to take a cab."
"Ah, though I don’t want to eat dog food right now, seeing how happy you are, I’ll bear with it." Sasha laughed, following her over.
Because of an incident on Nathaniel’s birthday, Ruby Sullivan hadn’t found a chance to gossip about Sasha’s romantic matters, now hearing this, she glanced at her with delayed realization.
"Hey, watch the road." Sasha deciphered the gossip in her eyes and forcibly turned her head.
Ethan Sterling saw them approaching, already got out of the car, first opened the back door, seeing Ruby Sullivan intended to squeeze in with Sasha, grabbed her arm, "Ms. Sullivan."
The man squinted at her with a significant smile.
Ruby Sullivan’s heart skipped, imdiately tactfully withdrew, sat in the passenger seat.
Yes, today she ditched Mr. Sterling, now she had to accommodate him; yes, today she caused Mr. Sterling a bit of trouble, now she had to listen.
After dropping Sasha off ho, Ruby Sullivan looked at her back from the car window, sighed, "How co she and Leon Sterling didn’t work out?"
"In front of , don’t ntion Leon Sterling." Ethan Sterling reminded.
"Exploring prospects for his wife isn’t okay either?"
"You don’t possess that ability." Ethan Sterling ruthlessly brought her back to reality.
Ruby Sullivan grinned widely, in a good mood, didn’t want to argue, "By the way, caused a bit of a ss today." She said, narrating the restaurant incident to Ethan Sterling.
He smiled slightly, "The one causing trouble is Silas Hollis."
