76. Passed out
76 ( ?????? ??? )
She accepted his hands and he squeezed tight.
“You did good,” he said softly, looking at her intensely while Skyler blinked when she felt him put something in her palms, like a tiny piece of paper.
“Keep the good work” he added before pulling away and leaving with Alvin following him again.
Skyler was curious to see what he had, she folded her hands tight before rushing to meet her mother and friends.
“Skyler is so lucky!!!” Cynthia jumped happily.
“She just had one of old man Mario Delgado’s grandsons is nothing new, just like I can shake you right now” Hudson walked towards him and stretched his hands in front of Cynthia.
She only looked at him from head to toe before pushing past him.
“Get out, you’re not even important!”
Hudson gasped but Jasper shook his hands.
“I got you, bro,” he said.
“And correction, you’re not my bro!” Hudson rolled his eyes and walked away.

“Hey, what do you think you’re doing? Let me go!!” Edna complained as Zach pulled her to a space.
“I thought you’re with Regina now, why are you bringing me here alone!!” She shouted and Zach finally released her hands when he saw there was no one there.
“What happened earlier?” He asked.
“What are you talking about?” She crossed her arms under her breast.
“I know all that you’re doing Edna, you’re doing all this to toy with me because of my feelings for you! That’s why you had to bring that guy and rub it on my face huh!?” He said painfully.
“Feelings? Aren’t you with Regina now, I mean you two had sex, didn’t you? I saw it Zach!! I saw that picture! You had to rub it in my face that you’ve moved on because I didn’t even you an answer when you said you liked me didn’t you!!” Edna yelled back in tears.
“What are you talking about?”
“Oh please, Zach! Don’t play fûcking dumb, you slept with Regina I know!!” She yelled again.
“Well yes I did but..
“That’s all I need to hear, fuck off traitor!!” Edna scoffed and began leaving but Zach held her back by the forearm and pulled her back.
“Okay fine, I slept with her but I was thinking of you throughout! I couldn’t get you off my mind no matter how I tried too, I know I tried to move on but I really couldn’t” Zach shook his head as he explained himself.
“I don’t care, you’re with her now, enjoy!!” Edna tried pushing him off but he pulled her back and pinned her to the wall with her hands above her head.
“I said I couldn’t get you off my mind, I don’t care about Regina!! Tell me you want things to end with her and I swear I would end it!” He said, looking into her eyes.
Edna stared at him, there was some mixed look of anger and pain.
“Tell me Edna, should I end things with her? I just need to hear from you” He asked again.
Edna wanted to talk but Miguel suddenly walked in.
“Edna!!” He called and rushed over, pulling Zach away.
“Who do you think you are!!” Zach punched his face and he immediately returned his punch.
The two fell on the floor and began hitting each other.
“Stop!! Zach!!” Edna pulled Zach away and raised Miguel.
“You should leave now before you get into trouble!!” She added, Zach glared at Miguel before leaving.
Once he left, Edna pushed Miguel off and gave him a dirty look.
“I didn’t bring you here so you can fight him!” She glared at him.
“You didn’t? You didn’t even ask my permission before trying to use me to do anything!!” He rolled his eyes.
“You’re forgetting your place here, Miguel, I’m your boss and I pay you, I call the shots Miguel and you have no damn right to do nothing!!” She angrily pushed him off before storming out.
Miguel only looked at her retreating figure before angrily kicking a small object on the floor beside him.
“She keeps hurting me but I keep sticking my nose all up in her business, I’m so stupid!” He shook his head as he thought to himself.

After greeting her mom and best friends, she finally opened the paper Mason gave her. He said he was waiting for her in one of the manikin’s rooms. She smiled to herself before sneaking out.
There were so many manikin rooms so she wasn’t sure of where Mason was but someone suddenly grabbed her and pulled her to a wall.
Before she could make any sound, she was pinned to the wall and a lips were on hers, the lips tasted familiar and she didn’t waste a second to return the.
After what seemed to be a long while, Mason pulled away from the kiss and cupped her cheeks then took a good look at her face.
“I’m not being cheesy when I do call you beautiful, I mean look at this,” he said with a wide smile.
Skyler only smiled.
“I hope I made you so proud” she muttered.
“More than proud my love” he cupped her cheeks and parted her lips with his thumb.
“I couldn’t take my eyes off you, I think you should be arrested for being too pretty, maybe I should personally jail you so you wouldn’t drive someone else crazy as much as you’ve driven me,” he said and Skyler only bit her lips hard.
Mason’s wristwatch suddenly ticked indicating that thirty minutes had passed already.
“Oops” he muttered and Skyler chuckled.
“We should leave because someone enters and watch some free porn” He winked and gave her a kiss on the forehead before covering his face with that nose mask and leaving.
Skyler tapped her cheeks repeatedly to hide her blush before leaving too.

“And we are finally back for more sales, the first one left most of us breathless but let’s wait for that second one” the host announced.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
The sales continued and some other fashion company sold more clothes before they got to the final stage.
“So in here, we will be calling each designers with that highest selling clothes to receive their very first award. We are starting with latin wears, Emilio White” he called and people clapped as he came forward to take his award.
“In Glamerous design we have Felix Newman?”
Felix walked up to the stage to take the award he don’t deserve.
“Then in D•S styles, we have Skyler Wang with that highest sales of clothes!!” The man announced and Skyler came to the stage.
Everyone were clapping for her as she stretched her hands to take her award when a sharp pain suddenly hit her stomach. She tried to ignore it but it came again with full force.
Mason squeezed his face when he noticed her expression.
“Skyler are you fine?” The host asked and she nodded but was suddenly feeling dizzy, her kneels were wobbling and before she knew it, she passed out.
