Chapter 77 Opportunity To
Deal With The Bitch
Exiting Nate's car, Corrine meandered down the avenue without a clear direction.
The struggle within her was undeniable, pulling her apart.
Nate's actions had stirred something within her heart.
Still, a lingering voice of reason cautioned her to remember past pains once the immediate wounds had healed.
Her three-year relationship with Bruce had drained all her sincerity, only to leave her with nothing but
disappointment.
Nate had only recently entered her life, just a few days ago.
With a sigh of frustration, Corrine combed her fingers through her hair, entertaining the idea that maybe things
would just sort themselves out.

A wry smile crossed her face as she remembered Karina's earnest prediction, saying that she would fall for him
soon.
And indeed, Karina had been right.
Lost in her thoughts, she was jolted back to reality by her ringing phone. It was Karina. "Corrine, weren't you
supposed to be here by now?"
"Just caught a cab, I'll be there shortly," Corrine responded, swiftly hailing a taxi and climbing aboard.
She reached the bridal stuten minutes later.
The stusat within a quaint villa on Harmony Street, flanked by birch trees, offering a serene escape.
This villa stood out with its melancholic, vintage allure, complete with pointed arches
and rose windows.
A bronze plaque marked "Redamancg" adorned the exterior.
While Karina managed the studio's every detail, from design to location, Corrine contributed financially and
occasionally managed client orders.
Upon entering, she was immediately greeted by Ivy Frazier, a staff member, who said to her, "Karina's in her
office."
Corrine acknowledged with a nod and ascended the spiral staircase straight to Karina's office.
Within the cozy room, an elegantly dressed woman leisurely enjoyed her coffee on the couch.
"Ah, you've arrived," Karina exclaimed, a look of relief washing over her as she saw Corrine. She approached
Corrine and introduced her to the woman on the couch, saying, "This is Corrine Holland, our chief designer, and
meet Fatima Seymour."
The Seymour family was among the top four influential families in Lyhaton.
"Hello," Corrine said warmly, offering her hand.
Once introductions were done, they settled into a deep discussion about wedding dress designs.
As Fatima outlined her vision, Corrine absorbed every detail, jotting down notes before taking Fatima's
measurements.
"We'll prepare the initial sketches and have them ready for your review within a week. Feel free to request any

Fatima's face lit up. "That sounds wonderful, Miss Holland, thank you."
After bidding Fatima goodbye, Karina and Corrine made their way back to the office.
No sooner had they seated themselves than Ivy appeared at the door, giving Corrine a nod before addressing
Karina, "There's a Miss Burgess downstairs asking for you."
"Miss Burgess?" Karina's voice chilled slightly at the mention of the name.
The mention of the Burgess nstirred an old resentment, a reminder of Leah's scheming nature.
Setting her coffee aside, Karina said to Corrine, "I'll be right back."
Descending the stairs, she found Leah and Rita waiting. A cold smile formed on Karina's lips.
It seemed fate delighted in reuniting enemies.
Memories of Leah's spiteful act against her cherished car cflooding back. Although Corrine had replaced it
swiftly, the grudge lingered.
With Leah now on her doorstep, Karina was ready to deal with this bitch.
