"W- What?" Fiona stepped back.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Oh, I just thought she would need help. She's still weak," Fiona reasoned.
"She doesn't. I can help her." Vanessa
"No, she's an Alpha. She's affected by your pheromones. If you two were left alone in a small room, even though she has been injected with an inhibitor, it doesn't mean it's safe." Fiona reasoned
"Fiona, we are both Omega." Vanessa
"I'll help her. I can take her down if she does something unnecessary." said Melody as she can't watch the two keep reasoning to each other
Melody, who was standing beside them earlier, is now at the door of the dressing room. Before they could react, they heard a door closing.
"She's fast and cunning," Fiona commented as she admired Melody a little.
' These two... don't tell me they are interested in Yanna? ' Vanessa thought but dismissed it. She knew Fiona's interest in Yanna is just curiosity, and once she finds out everything about her, she will lose interest.
' But what about Melody? If what Yanna says is true, then Melody is Oliver's ally. Then her and Yanna in one room... no, she treats Yanna nicely. What's her motive? '
"Are you worried about Melody?" Fiona asked
" No, what did you find out about her?" Vanessa asked back indifferently. She doesn't trust Fiona that much, but she can't deny that Fiona is really fast at getting information.
Fiona is also her childhood friend, but unlike Oliver who always followed her around, Fiona was busy studying and hated to play. However, later she started playing with them as their families are close to each other.
"She's not harmful yet. That's all I can say," Fiona says. She can't say anything more about Melody.
"Yet?"
"Well, she's a good person to begin with, but your fiance only sees her as a tool. What do you think will happen to her? Will she distance herself or fight with you for Oliver?"
"Stop mentioning him; there's no engagement going to happen," Vanessa said, then sat down on the sofa.
Fiona smiled and prepared a few wine glasses, then took a bottle of wine from her collection.
Meanwhile, Yanna was shocked to see Melody walk in; she had expected Vanessa.
"Let me help you," Yanna offered.
"I thought Vanessa would come," Yanna said.
"She can't, or you'll be affected by her again. The inhibitor might already take effect, but it's good to be cautious," Melody explained.
"I see, thank you," Yanna replied.
"Aren't you afraid I'll do something?" Melody questioned.
"No, you're not that kind of person," Yanna assured.
"You don't know me," Melody responded.
"Yeah, but you've helped me and even given me a warning," Yanna explained.
"What warning?" Melody asked.
"You know I've noticed your subtle movements of continually looking at Oliver," Yanna revealed.
"You knew, but you still stayed with Ms. Rodriguez? Do you know he can harm you and your family? If you provoke him, you won't end well," Melody warned through clenched teeth.
Yanna undressed herself and slowly put on her undergarments. Melody went closer to help her with the dress and was shocked to see who "Clarence" really was.
"Yanna Rivera?" Melody questioned.
"Hi," Yanna greeted.
"You... how?" Melody asked, surprised.
"I'll explain later. Will you help me?" Yanna requested.
Melody didn't say anything; she focused on helping Yanna. After assisting Yanna, she left without uttering a word. Melody had heard a lot about Yanna before and didn't have a good impression of her.
Yanna watched her leave and shook her head. She couldn't blame Melody for the sudden cold treatment. Yanna had a bad reputation, and her name was not yet cleared. It would still take time.
Yanna sighed and started applying makeup to her face.
"Where is she?" Vanessa asked, looking at Melody.
"Inside," Melody responded, sitting down. She drank the wine in one gulp, not saying anything.
"Did something happen inside?" Fiona asked as she refilled Melody's glass.
Vanessa expected this reaction from Melody, and she knew Fiona would react similarly later.
Melody didn't answer; instead, she asked Vanessa, "Do you know from the start who she is?"
"Of course," Vanessa confirmed.
""Hey, then Oliver might be doing well for you. Nothing good will happen if she's around you; worse, she might be using you,"
"Compared to you, she's better," Vanessa answered, unaffected by Melody's words about Yanna.
Yanna walked out of the dressing room just in time to hear their conversation. She smiled at them carelessly and sat next to Vanessa.
"So it's Ms. Rivera," Fiona was also shocked, but unlike Melody, she doesn't hate Yanna or anything.
"You're not as shocked as Ms. Melody. Anyway, thank you for the dress. I like it, but I like this wine better," Yanna said.
"Fufufu~ To think we have the same taste," Fiona chuckled.
"Don't drink too much," Vanessa reminded Yanna.
"Yes, of course," Yanna replied
"Shall we start talking about the matters now?" Fiona asked.
"Of course," Vanessa agreed.
"Why did you come and disguise yourself?" Fiona began
"I was invited by Vanessa. I couldn't refuse her, but I didn't want her to get into trouble because of me, so I disguised myself. Amazing, isn't it?" Yanna answered jokingly.
"I see. What's your relationship with each other?" Fiona inquired.
"We're friends," Vanessa answered, and Yanna nodded.
"Friends?" Fiona couldn't believe it.
"How?" Fiona continued.
"Haha, the story is simple. We have the same taste in food, and I happen to know how to cook, so we clicked," Yanna explained.
"That's it?" Fiona questioned.
"What else could it be?" Yanna replied.
"I see," Fiona didn't believe it but didn't ask any further.
"Then, Ms. Melody?"
"I believe Oliver asked me to distance you from Ms. Vanessa for her own good," Melody began.
"Really? Does he even know it's me in the first place?" Yanna asked curiously.
"Maybe," Melody responded.
"Haha, no, he doesn't know it's me," Yanna said confidently.
"Like what you said to me in the dressing room earlier, if I provoke him, it won't be beneficial. Why did you say that? Why warn me about him? If what you said is true, for Vanessa's sake, then why does he have to use you?"
"Because..."
"Ms. Melody, stop depending him when you yourself are doubting him," Fiona interjected, not wanting to beat around the bush.
"Fiona, what do you think about Oliver?" Vanessa asked.
"To think you would ask me... well, all I can say is he's a wolf in sheep's clothing," Fiona replied, then turned to Yanna
"What about you, Ms. Yanna? What do you think?"
"Immature, ambitious, self-centered, spoiled, smart," Yanna answered honestly.
Fiona smiles and raises her glass for a toast with Yanna. They exchange smiles, as if they have discovered something in common..
"W- What?" Fiona stepped back.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Oh, I just thought she would need help. She's still weak," Fiona reasoned.
"She doesn't. I can help her." Vanessa
"No, she's an Alpha. She's affected by your pheromones. If you two were left alone in a small room, even though she has been injected with an inhibitor, it doesn't mean it's safe." Fiona reasoned
