The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

The second fashion show went smoother than the first one.

Ayla honestly didn't need to worry about anything else.She just stayed with Brian the whole time, and let her assistants and stylists handle what needed to be done.

As she sat beneath the stage, Yareli glanced at Ayla, and said, "You've made astounding progress lately! Keep up the good work, Lala!"

If the company's fashion season events continued to succeed, Ayla would make leaps and bounds in her career as a designer.

Yareli lived on her own and she didn't have any children.

It took her the majority of her life to build her company from the ground up, so she didn't want Starlight to be passed down to someone unworthy.

Out of all the people she had met, the only person worthy of inheriting her legacy was Ayla.

That was why she asked her to go back to A City and work with the Clark Group.

Meanwhile, Brian hadn't said a word since the beginning of the show.

His stern silence was stressing Ayla out.

This man's mind was too strange to understand.

Moreover, the more she tried to read him, the less she understood what he might be thinking.

Linda walked out of the backstage.

Upon seeing Yareli with Brian and Ayla, she immediately figured out what was happening.Yareli neither had children nor kin she could trust enough to pass down her company.

A company as big as hers needed someone capable at the helm once she retired.

And as of this moment, the most suitable person in her mind to lead the company was Ayla.

Linda wondered what trick that woman had played to fool everyone into liking her, especially Yareli and Brian.

"Miss Linda, what are you looking at? Do you wish speak to Ms.Evans?" her assistant asked.

"What are you talking about? Get back to work! If anything goes wrong, you're fired!"

Linda was seething with anger.

The assistant had chosen a terrible time to talk to her.

Immediately, the assistant turned around and went back to work.
