You Looked Down on Me Once, Now You Look Up. novel Chapter 378

“Cotton and linen are comfortable, sure, but everyone wears them. Not many people can pull off real silk and make it look classy and expensive. Honestly, Ms. Miller just has that kind of elegance.”

Nina smirked. “You really know how to talk, don’t you?”

She guessed her friend probably knew all about the messy history between her and Theo.

“I’m just being honest. The best thing is always what suits you. Ms. Miller is wonderful—she deserves something better.”

What was that saying again? Sincerity is the ultimate killer move.

“Is Amy doing a promo for your brand today?”

“She is,” the friend replied.

Her friend turned to the sales associate. “We’re not going to run into her, are we?”

The saleswoman smiled. “No worries, ladies. We’ve got a special area just for VIP clients. You won’t be bothered by the event outside. Let me show you the way.”

“Right this way, please.”

Nina followed the saleswoman toward the VIP section, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Theo walking in.

Of course. With how high-profile things had been lately, it made sense.

His girlfriend was here for the event. Obviously, he’d show up too.

Still, her chest tightened. It hurt more than she wanted to admit.

Theo clearly hadn’t expected to see her either.

When Nina glanced at him, her eyes flashed with a hurt and bitterness that was impossible to hide.

Patricia and Amy—both of them were clever and calculated. Always after something.

But Nina wasn’t like that.

It wasn’t until after Patricia and Amy that Theo realized how rare it was to meet someone like Nina, someone who wanted nothing but his love.

She remembered something her sociology professor used to say. Everything in the world is easy to find—except for a genuine heart.

“What was that look Theo gave you just now? Don’t tell me he dumped you and only now is realizing what a mistake he made.”

Nina shrugged. “No idea.”
