Chapter 531:

“Don’t worry, Brandon, you still have me,” she had said. “I’ll stay by your side, even if the whole world turns against you.”

At that time, Myron himself had just been betrayed by someone he trusted. He had barely escaped with his life. Only those who’ve been betrayed truly know what matters.

Myron closed his eyes, hiding the shadows in his expression. When he opened them again, his face had returned to its usual calm and graceful demeanor.

Millie noticed him approaching and gave a faint smile.

“Myron,” she greeted him. It still felt unfamiliar on her tongue, but she knew one day it wouldn’t.

The Elliott Group’s new Blue series was an undeniable success. Thanks to strong marketing and Oakley’s failed attempts to stir trouble, the launch attracted massive attention and plenty of interested buyers.

Millie’s clever promotional strategies had already pulled in a wave of orders. Many customers were planning to return that evening when the store’s lighting would be at its best. The store was also packed.

A large promotional poster of Millie hung nearby. She wore a vivid blue dress, a dazzling gemstone necklace, and matching sapphire earrings. Her hair flowed freely around her shoulders.

The setup didn’t perfectly match the promo video, but the sapphire around her neck clearly resembled the Heart of the Ocean.

The campaign also featured a song called Blue, written and composed by Eva, and performed by Millie as the brand ambassador. However, the single was released under Eva’s name. Millie’s voice sounded like Eva’s, but distinct.

Online chatter speculated Eva had started imitating Millie’s singing style. Previously, when Vivian released her revamped Glimmer of Love, Eva had been accused of seizing her moment.

But no one could deny the success of the Blue series. Eva’s single had also taken off, quickly climbing into the top ten on the new songs chart.

By evening, a new entertainment poll popped up online. The question was simple—Millie or Vivian?

Each person could vote once per day. There were no prizes, but that didn’t stop the public from jumping in.

Thanks to the success of the Blue launch event, Millie’s votes surged, leaving Vivian far behind.

Vivian was livid.

“All this over some mid-range gemstone products?” she fumed inside her studio. “Even if she gets a cut from her contract, how much could it be? Does she really think she can surpass me?” She paced the floor in frustration.

“And Eva—she’s refused me but then joined forces with Millie!”

Her caregiver, sensing trouble, spoke up hesitantly. “Eva’s signed with Evans Entertainment. Isn’t it normal for her to collaborate with Millie?”

Vivian shot her a glare. The caregiver went quiet.

Vivian’s expression turned calculating and cold. Since Eva and Millie were working together, they were now tied to the same fate.
