The city outside was bathed in a warm glow, a beautiful sight that contrasted sharply with her cold demeanor.
"Queenie's entering the design competition, huh? If she's in, then | won't participate.
I'll leave her speechless when the tcomes."
Diana didn't have tto wallow in sadness; feeling sorry for someone like Gale was simply not worth it.
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, and when Diana opened them again, clarity filled her gaze. What
she needed was to grow stronger-strong enough to compete with Steven and that man behind Queenie.
Pulling out her tablet, she focused on the latest financial reports, her expression serious and intent.
Meanwhile, Gale stood downstairs, replaying the events of the morning in his mind. His anger had been sparked

Fuming, Gale returned hjust as their mother, Paula, walked in, looking exhausted from a long day at work.
"Hey, Gale! You rushed out earlier. What's up?" Queenie greeted him, her eyes still puffy from crying.

thinks she can play at being an artist? Please."
A flicker of amusement crossed Queenie's face, but she quickly masked it with concern. "Gale, you shouldn't

designer's work. If I'd known you were going to do something like that, | would've stopped you. Now Diana is

Gale waved her off. "Don't worry, Queenie. I'm here to protect you. She won't dare

serious.
Honestly, what's with Paula's melotic act? Who is she trying to impress?"
Paula stood up, her expression serious. "Gale, cwith me. We need to talk."
Gale noticed the gravity in her eyes and felt a knot form in his stomach. "What's going on?" He recalled their last
conversation, thinking, "Why do | feel like Mom has changed? Or is company's issues making her concern about
Queenie less?" He followed his mother outside and headed to a nearby park.
