reston’s tactics pushed Georgia to her breaking point.
What he didn’t admit, even to himself, was that buried beneath his cruelty lay a secret desire for the proud woman she

In days past, she had declared with fire, “If Giselle becomes your mate, I walk away from you.” Now, she was a shadow of herself–groveling, apologizing, stripped of dignity.
He was blind to the truth behind his ruthless games: he was the one who reshaped her.
He justified his cruelty by convincing himself she deserved it–because she killed Giselle.
Charlotte caught Preston’s words this time, clear as a bell: the order to send Georgia to the Public Relations Department.
At Vetro Club, the PR Department’s main task was managing the girls
Charlotte cast a worried glance at Georgia’s ghostly pale face. Something strange was happening between these two, something she had never seen before from Preston.
To him, Vetro Club was just a small venture, nothing personal.
“Georgia, come with me,” Charlotte said firmly.
Suddenly, Georgia lifted her head, eyes pleading toward Preston. “No, I don’t want that.”
“I don’t want to work in the Public Relations Department, Mr. Hill,” she begged desperately. “I know I was wrong. Please, just let me go. I’ve already paid my dues–three years in prison. Please give me back my bank card, and I swear I’ll disappear. I won’t ever make you see me again.”
Her voice trembled, her desperation raw. She failed to notice the flicker of surprise in Charlotte’s eyes when she mentioned. her time behind bars.

Georgia looked back at Charlotte, a bitter smile fleeting across her lips. Charlotte noticed a fresh bite mark bleeding on Georgia’s mouth.
“Are you okay?” Charlotte asked, concern flooding her voice.
I’m fine.” Georgia straightened painfully, barely able to stand.
Charlotte reached out to help, but Georgia shook her head and smiled gratefully. “Thank you, Charlotte.”
“Are you sure?” Charlotte didn’t believe her.
