Chapter 88
Guinevere stepped forward and whispered. “Samuel, I am truly sorry!”
“Come now, we are family, Samuel; surely you can overlook this small mistake by Guinevere!” Sophia interjected
Samuel couldn’t really stay angry at Guinevere. He could only say, “Very well, let this be a lesson for the future!”
Seeing that Samuel wasn’t continuing the argument, Guinevere quickly tried to leave. “Wait! Guinevere, the wager hasn’t been settled yet? label called out. She knew well that Guinevere wanted to sneak away without facing any consequences.
“Isabel, your dad has decided to let this go; why can’t you just let it be? You need to be generous; take a hint from your dad!” Willian said.
Isabel scoffed, thinking. Are they trying to lecture me on morals! They have none themselves! They can’t control me
“William, your words might mean something to my dad, a man of honor but they don’t matter to me. 1 didn’t force Guinevere into that wagen. Grandma was there, she can back me up on that!
“Even if Gamevere has apologized to my
Guinevere looked really upset, she didn’t want to be humiliated like that. “Grandma… she rushed to Sophia’s side.
my dad, she still has to kneel and slap herself ten times while admitting her wrongdoing!”
“Babel, you should know when to let go. Since everyone is okay and we’re all family, there’s no need for this slapping thing. Besides Guinevere has already said she’s sorry!” Sophia said.
Tubel had expected Sophia to defend Guinevere. Guinevere had grown up with Sophia, it was no surprise that Sophia would ignore Isabel’s feelings, especially since Isabel had been cast out by the family and hadn’t even received a glance from Sophia
Isabel stepped closer to Sophia and spoke sofily, “Grandma, you saw it yourself. Guinevere was the one who wanted to cause trouble today. We were just minding our own business when she came at us, creating this problem. Has she ever shown us any kindness!
“Also, the wager involves more than just you. The management team is vital to our company’s success. If they are that means nothing, what authority will you have left! They will ignore your orders, and that cannot be allowed!”
de as chairwoman
Sophia’s expression rightened, she hadn’t expected to be backed into a corner by Isabel. The management staff were indeed watching. If she tried to protect Guinevere, it wouldn’t end well. Clearly, Isabel had some cunning strategies
“Grandma… I don’t want this please help me. Guinevere cried, begging Sophia.
Sophia pushed her away and said, “Guinevere, as a member of the Galvez family, you must keep your word and take responsibility for your actions. You are an adult now. Besides, it was indeed your error.
“You led me into this mess without getting the truth first. You might as well slap yourself. If you don’t follow through with your wager today, I will impose family rules!”
Guinevere’s face went pale as she realized that her usually lenient grandma wasn’t coming to her rescue. “Grandma!” she cried pitifully.
“I give you one last warning: if you do not slap your own face, I will enforce family rules!” Sophia said firmly,
With no other options and knowing that Sophia’s idea of family rules meant serious punishment, Guinevere had to put aside her pride. She knelt down and reluctantly raised her hand to slap her own face. The sting was undeniable.
“I was wrong!” Each slap came with a loud proclamation, and the management staff murmured among themselves, realizing Guinevere had only succeeded in humiliating herself.
After nen hard slaps, Guinevere’s cheeks were bright red. Once it was over, she ran away. It was unbearable to have faced such humiliation for th
the
first time.
William watched his daughter’s sorrow with anger boiling inside him. But since the fault lay with them, he could only keep his frustration in check. He glared at Samuel and Isabel, snorted in disapproval, and left.
Samuel watched as everyone scattered and returned to his office. “Isabel, if not for you, who knows what disasters could have happened today! This certainly had Guinevere’s name on it
“I know William well; even if he wanted to push me out, he wouldn’t mess with the company’s valuable assets. Guinevere really has no sense of decency: how could she act so poorly?” Samuel said.
“Dad, don’t worry I’m still in the process of hiring security, those I brought in last night caine from elsewhere and will eventually leave. But I will keep a few to watch over important areas. You can relax.”

Chapter 88
“It’s been a long night for you, so hurry home to rest!” Samuel said with a deep concern.
When Isabel got home, she took a quick nap and then started drafting design sketches. The clothing for Joy Entertainment still needed to be created. She pulled out a sheet of draft paper and, with careful strokes, sketched several outfits
She sent the designs to Joy Entertainment, which was very pleased and got moving on crafting the garments within a few days. Soon enough, the recording for Idols Reloaded was set to start next month,
Isabel would be part of the styling team, tasked with dressing the performers. During this period, Joy Entertainment was covering her expenses.
When they arrived at the recording site, the staff urged Isabel to pick the outfits quickly. After seeing the team’s energy and spirit she chose a set youthful, campus–style clothing that perfectly matched their performance.
As the group changed into their outfits, they began to get their makeup done. Lucas shot a sharp look at Isabel, but she ignored him. Once their makeup was finished, they waited outside. The judges were in the room and would call them in one by one
“Isabel. I’m so excited! Tve seen so many stars today, especially those judges. One of them is a singer I really admire…” Amara exclaimed, bubbling with joy. She reached for her phone, only to remember that photos weren’t allowed.
“By the way, among the Joy Entertainment team, who do you think has the most potential?” Amara asked curiously.
“I don’t think any of them have potential,” Label replied coolly
of
“Oh, you don’t think anyone is good? I think Lucas is really charming. He has the best looks in the group–so youthful” Amara said, growing more
excited
Isabel stayed quiri, hiding a smirk. Finally, their moment arrived. From behind the stage, Isabel could watch the performances through a live
stream on a SETECTIL
Lucas and his teammates came onto the stage, wearing matching blue and white outfits that immediately drew applause from the crowd, who noted how well the clothes suited them.
Joy Entertainment certainly knew how to make an impression; even their outfits looked like they came from a top designer
“Hello everyone! We are from Joy Entertainment, and our group is called Sweet Mango!” a group of bright–faced young men introduced themselves together
“Please introduce yourselves!” one of the judges prompted
A young man next to Lucas stepped forward. “Hello, my name is Bramwell, and I would like to show you my personal talent
After finishing his introduction, he started to act cute and mimic a cat’s meow. His exaggerated movements and pouty face got the audience cheering, really setting the mood
“He’s actually acting
sting cute! I have goosebumps! I never expected an introduction like that Amara said, eyes wide in surprise.
Even Isabel was surprised, modern entertainment had really taken a turn towards the playful, with rising stars embracing cuirness to a new level After Bramwell finished, it was Lucas’s turn.
Luras stepped forward and gave a sharp ninety–degree bow. “Good day, honored judgest I am Lucas, but you can call me sweetheart, because I am known for my sweetness in the group.”
“Ugh.” Amara felt like she couldn’t take it anymore.
“Oh my, is there really not even one normal person among them? I thought Lucas was okay before, only to find out he is just as effeminate!”
Isabel smiled quietly. Once Lucas finished his introduction, he started a rather suggestive and chry dance routine that flirted with being Inappropriate.
