A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"Jack, don't get so riled up; I don't want you to hurt yourself...." Rose spared no efforts to shower Jack with pleasantries. She had fought all the way to the top to become Jack's mistress; needless to say, she had the skills to fend for herself.

Jack couldn't deny that he craved for Rose's luscious body; he did not mind paying more attention to her. "What do you want this time? Clothes? Jewelry?" he asked.

Emily had never asked him for anything luxurious, instead, she always saved money for him. She was definitely the best choice for an ideal wife, but unfortunately, she had completely betrayed him and his trust! The hickey on her neck was the most convincing evidence!

"Nonsense, I just really care about you, " Rose clung to Jack's arm like a spoiled child.

"Oh?" Jack squinted his eyes and jested, "I thought you wanted something from me. If that's not that case; just forget about it."

Jack's words made Rose anxious. She quickly replied, "You've read my mind again. It's actually just a little thing. Jack, you are the best. You will help me, right?"

Jack did not say yes immediately. He raised his eyebrows and said, "First, tell me what this is about."

"I participated in the Jewelry Design Competition and I have already entered the final round. But...I don't feel confident. Jack, can you do something for me?"

"Did Emily also participate in this competition?"

Rose nodded and observed his expression, "Jack..."

"It will depend on your performance, " Jack sneered, as the thought of Emily's face appeared in his mind again.

Jack had every intention of helping Rose; so long as it would help him further his quest for revenge against Emily, for betraying him!

Time flew by calmly; the morning before the finals had finally arrived. The designers shortlisted for the finals all stayed in their designated hotel rooms to prevent chances of cheating, for instance, they hiring surrogate test-takers. A set of strict measures were adopted to ensure the fairness and safety of the competition.
