Chapter 327 Eva was about to reprimand the intruder but didn’t expect this person to introduce herself voluntarily. It was Kimberly. The name sounded familiar to her. When she had looked into Aurelia’s background, Kimberly’s name came up the most. She was Aurelia’s professional rival. Kimberly indeed had skills, especially when it came to men. She was simply irresistible. Upon seeing her today, Eva decided that her reputation was well–founded. She was indeed bold and seductive. Most men were visual creatures, and Kimberly was the ultimate eye candy. Coupled with her skill in flaunting her advantages, most men couldn’t resist her charm. However, Eva wasn’t a man, and she had no interest in Kimberly’s looks. What interested her was why Kimberly wanted to see her before Aurelia did. Eva waved her hand at her assistant and then removed her sunglasses. “Why hy are you alone? Didn’t your company say there would be another person?” “I was afraid you would be angry if you saw Aurelia again, so I came to see you in advance. Kimberly sat down and called the waiter to order an iced Americano. It didn’t seem like she was here to discuss work. It appeared as though she showed up to negotiate. Eva raised an eyebrow. “You don’t have to beat around the bush with me. Just say what you want. I don’t have time to dance around with you.” She deliberately showed her impatience, and Kimberly instantly spilled everything. “Ms. Hanks, you genuinely hate Aurelia, don’t you?” Chanter 327 “Not at all.” Eva smiled. Kimberly pursed her lips, unable to contain her frustration. “Even if it’s not you, it’s someone behind you, right? I’m not here to cause trouble. I just want to make a deal with you.” Eva chuckled inwardly. As she had anticipated, a woman who relied on men for too long would not stand a chance against another woman. Still, Kimberly also disliked Aurelia. Having an extra helping hand wouldn’t hurt, especially since Kimberly knew someone was behind Eva. When she was a model, Cynthia introduced many big shots from the financial industry to pave the way for herself. Naturally, Eva wouldn’t betray Cynthia. She scanned Kimberly and decided to encourage her. “Ms. Watson, you’re quite impressive for knowing that. Not bad. Indeed, I’m creating trouble for Aurelia because of the people behind me. So, what kind of deal do you want to discuss?” Kimberly immediately straightened her back, feeling like she had the upper hand. She was oblivious to the fact that women like her weren’t even qualified to show up in Eva’s circle. Eva was simply indulging her as she found the situation amusing. Since someone had presented themselves for her manipulation, it seemed strange not to make use of it. Kimberly smiled. “Ms. Hanks, I’m getting married soon. My only wish is to blacklist Aurelia from the entire industry.” As she spoke, she twirled the ring on her finger. Eva glanced at it with amusement. Jewelry with such quality would only win the hearts of mediocre women like Kimberly. Chapter 227 Not bothering to expose Kimberly, Eva said, “We share the same thought–that’s perfect. So long as you can help me, the partnership with my company will be your wedding gift. What do you think?” Kimberly’s eyes lit up, and she nodded. “It’s settled then. Since you asked both me and Aurelia here, you must already have a plan, right?” “Well, she’s not here yet,” Eva said and placed a big briefcase on the table. She entered the passcode and opened it. The splendid sight inside instantly captured Kimberly. All women loved jewelry, especially ones that were custom–made by premium brands. Staring at the gems on it, Kimberly was initially shocked, then proceeded to cover her ring awkwardly. Eva closed the briefcase. “We borrowed this piece from the Waldorf family. We need it for the shoot today. Do you know how much this costs?” “How much?” Kimberly asked. Eva gestured a seven with her hand. “Seven hundred thousand?” Kimberly asked in shock. “Seven million. The sapphire in the middle was taken from an actual scepter. How much do you think it’s worth?” Eva raised an eyebrow.
