Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 411

Standing a short distance away, her makeup perfect as she waited to go on, Yvonne watched the guests' reactions, her face twisting in anger.

But she quickly suppressed her fury.

That bitch. Let her have her moment. We'll see how happy she is in a little while.

She glanced at the phone in her hand, a cold smirk playing on her lips as she murmured, "The higher you climb, the harder you fall, isn't that right?"

"Miss Moore, are you sure you want to do it now?" a man holding a tablet asked as he approached.

The screen displayed the current trending data.

#Janina'sNewLaunch#

#Fashion'sNewItGirl# and similar tags were already in the top three on the local trending list.

Yvonne let out a cold laugh, a sinister glint in her eyes. "Proceed as planned."

Janina, this time, I'm going to ruin you completely.

Amidst the thunderous applause from the audience, the show on the runway continued.

Backstage.

"It's almost our turn. I'm getting a little nervous," Wendy said, grabbing Maggie's hand, unable to stop trembling.

"Don't be scared. We're wearing masks, so no one will recognize us. We just need to showcase the clothes well and not embarrass Nina," Maggie said, touching up Wendy's lipstick.

Melody, on the other hand, was fearless. She was used to the spotlight and patted Wendy's shoulder reassuringly.

"Just think of them as a bunch of kindergarteners. When I first started acting, I was terrified of the camera, so I just imagined the cameraman was a big white goose."

The group couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Now that you put it that way, I don't feel as nervous. They all have one nose and two eyes, just like us. Nothing to be scared of."

Wendy pressed a hand to her chest. Her biggest fear was dragging everyone down.

So, it was just her eldest brother, third brother, and sixth sister who came.

When Wendy heard that West was also in the audience, her smile froze, and her lips twitched unnaturally.

The image of his chiseled profile flashed through her mind. She remembered the heat of his breath and the feeling of his touch on her neck, and goosebumps broke out all over her skin.

That night, when West wasn't in his right mind...

She couldn't push him away. Even biting his lip until it bled hadn't made him let go...

Lately, she had been feeling terribly guilty towards Finch.

She had postponed their plans to move in together. She didn't want to hide it from Finch, but she was afraid he would be upset if he knew.

Sometimes she tried to console herself, telling herself to just write it off as being bitten by a stray dog, but she kept dreaming about that night.

Fortunately, no one else knew, not even her best friends.
