“Amelia has always been a rebel. She just does her own thing and never cares what my parents or brothers think. There’s no way she’s easy to control.”

Gianna sounded like she was comforting Diana. In truth, she was shading Amelia, trying to plant bad thoughts about her.

Diana’s expression twisted, clearly irritated. She snorted. “She thinks she’s so amazing that she looks down on everyone. Vincent isn’t any less than her.”

Seeing Diana take the bait, Gianna felt a rush of satisfaction. She kept pushing. “Exactly! Amelia is just way too full of herself.”

Then, acting like she’d had a brilliant idea, she leaned closer and whispered, “Diana, I actually know a way to make Amelia drop her attitude and totally obey Vincent.”

“What way?” Diana asked quickly.

“Just lock it in.”

Diana froze, caught off guard. She’d never thought of that approach before. But the more she mulled it over, the more it made sense.

Once a woman slept with a man, she might act more obedient–especially someone as headstrong as Amelia.

While Diana was trying to figure out how to pull that off, Gianna leaned in again. “My birthday `· party is coming up soon. At the party, we can …

She laid out her plan in a low voice. Diana nodded along, totally in.

Just like that, they became partners in crime.

Diana didn’t realize Gianna had no plan to hand Vincent over to Amelia. She was only cozying up to Diana for her own gain.

Diana figured Gianna was sharp and probably had plenty of sneaky tricks if she ever needed advice.

She dabbed some on her face. It felt cool and soothing. Maybe it was her imagination, but her skin seemed smoother already.

No wonder celebrities look so good. They must be using things regular people can’t buy.

Of course, their faces were their livelihood, so they cared way more about skincare than everyone else.

After finishing her routine, Diana noticed Bentley was gone again. He was probably drinking or fooling around somewhere, maybe not even coming home.

She was furious, but she could do nothing. Right then, she wished even more for the skincare to work and keep her young so gold diggers wouldn’t steal her husband.

But when she woke up the next morning, her face itched.

Instinctively, Diana scratched and realized her skin felt rough and bumpy.

Her heart jumped. She bolted upright, ran to the vanity, and stared at her reflection.

What she saw froze her blood–her whole face was covered in swollen, red bumps.

Diana screamed, her voice bouncing off the walls. Panic and dread flooded her as she grabbed her face, refusing to believe it.

How could her soft, smooth skin turn into that overnight?

It had to be those skincare products from Gianna!

“What on earth are you yelling about this early?” Bentley grumbled.

But when his eyes landed on her, he panicked even more than she did. “Oh my god! What happened to you? What’s wrong with your face?!”

Watching him recoil in shock pushed Diana’s fear and despair over the edge.

She broke down, sobbing. “It has to be those products Gianna gave me! Look what they’ve done

to me!”

She regretted everything. She’d been a classy, rich woman, but she had foolishly trusted something sketchy.

Now, her face was ruined. She had never felt that much regret.
