S21 28. Show Off
“Yes, I personally asked for my position not to be printed. I really like this ID card. I want to
keep wearing it, even if my position has been promoted.” Barbara shrugged as if it was
nothing big.
Hailey snorted. “You’re not lying, right? You’re really the creative director at Savior
Fashion?”
Barbara immediately frowned. “You don’t believe me?”
“Many things can be faked, nowadays, including identities and ID cards. We need more
concrete evidence.”
“You want me to broadcast live from my office?”
Hailey raised an eyebrow. “Yes, do it. And show me the results of your design. Only after
that, I and the others will stop doubting you.”
Barbara subconsciously swallowed hard. Her shoulders rose and fell faster.
“Okay. Just wait until Monday. I will show you my office and work results.”
Hailey smiled slyly. “Yeah, let’s see.”
However, a second later, her eyes fell on the sparkling necklace Barbara’s neck. “Darling,
what is that new item of yours?”
Barbara gasped. Realizing that her orange diamond was exposed, she pretended to be
confused.
“What?” Her head moved around as if looking for something strange. This ring? I’ve been
wearing it for a long time. It’s a graduation gift from my dad.”
“No. It’s your new necklace. You haven’t told us about it.”

The
Vents column was immediately filled with guesses. Many
viewers guessed it would cost millions of dollars. Witnessing that, Barbara laughed
awkwardly as if she was embarrassed.
“Oh, this is a small gift from my brother. We were apart all this time. He had never given
me anything. So, for the first gift, he said he wanted to give me something special. I
thought it was a joke but he really looked for this rare orange diamond for me.”
Barbara moved the camera closer to her necklace. Seeing the gleam of that perfect
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsculpture, everyone immediately expressed their envy. and admiration. Even Hailey
couldn’t hide her feelings.
“Is that the real thing? Very beautiful. How much does it cost?”
“I don’t know,” Barbara returned the camera to its original distance.” Maybe, millions of
dollars. It wouldn’t be ethical for me to ask my brother.”
After a few blinks, Hailey returned her suspicious expression. “But counterfeits now look so
much like the real thing. It’s hard to confirm authenticity without touching it.”
Barbara immediately pouted. “Hailey, what’s wrong with you? Why do you keep
suspecting me? I know you’re jealous of me, but you
shouldn’t accuse me of being fake.”
“I’m not making accusations. It’s just that I’m not someone who easily trusts. You have to
provide more evidence.”
“Okay! You’ll see on Monday! I’ll show you my office,” Barbara said firmly.
“That’s too long to wait. How about now, you prove that you really live in Frank Harper’s
mansion? Show that the house is as big as a football field.”
Barbara raised her chin. Without thinking, she accepted the challenge.
“Okay!”
+25 BONUS
Barbara left her room, taking the viewers to look around. Not for a second did she stop
showing off. After walking around for a few minutes, the tour ended at the back veranda.
“How is it? Do you believe me? I do live in Frank Harper’s mansion.” She smiled
triumphantly.
Hailey sneered. “Yes, you do live there, but in a row of maid’s rooms.”
Barbara’s expression darkened again. Just when she was about to argue, a voice greeted
her. “Are you crazy? Why do you talk to yourself?”
Barbara gasped and turned her head. Finding Philip relaxing in his favorite chair, she
quickly hid her phone behind her back.
“You… are you following me?” Barbara widened her eyes.
Philip walked over. “I’ve been here since earlier. How could I be following you?”
When the man stopped in front of her, Barbara subconsciously gripped her phone tighter.
“What are you hiding?” Philip’s eyes narrowed.
Barbara pursed her lips. “This is none of your business.”
“You’re live streaming? You’re showing people the contents of this mansion?”
Barbara hurriedly pressed the home button. “No.”
With one swift movement, Philip snatched Barbara’s phone. His
brows furrowed when he found the screen.
“See? There’s nothing there, right?” Barbara said.
With a firm expression, Philip raised the phone beside his head. “Are

you aware that the information you leaked earlier could be used by criminals?”
Barbara pouted. “I’m not leaking anything.”
“If you broadcast detailed situations about this mansion, people might find a way in. That
could threaten our security.”
Barbara sighed. “Don’t exaggerate! This house has a high fence. Not to mention lots of
security guards and CCTVs in every corner. Even if the outsiders knew the layout of this
building, they wouldn’t be able to break in.”
Philip took a step forward. The look in his eyes intimidated Barbara. ” I’m the head of
security here. I know the threats and risks better.

Barbara spontaneously held her breath. Her head leaned backward. After a few blinks, she
stammered, “Well then, you should work more seriously. If your security is tight, no one
will be able to break in.”
A second later, Barbara snatched her phone. With slightly red cheeks, she ran inside.
“That person is very strange. Even a live streaming is not allowed?” she grumbled.
While continuing to walk, Barbara checked her social media. Hailey still continued to the
live broadcast alone.
“Did they hear Philip’s voice just now?”
Barbara recalled her memory. His speaking volume was quite large. Barbara cringed at the
thought of the consequences.
“In the next live stream, I have to give my best. That way, they won’t mention Philip.”
Monday morning, Barbara entered the Savior building with a bright smile. Unlike usual, her
outfit this time was formal. She wore a blazer

and her hair was neatly pinned up.

“Hello, Girls. As I promised yesterday, today I will show you my office.”
Barbara spun around for a moment, showing how spacious the
Savior’s lobby was. Several people were amazed to see it. The rest commented on the
time of Barbara’s arrival.
“No, I’m not late. I deliberately postponed my working hours so that our little tour
wouldn’t be hampered. You know what?”
She held her phone close to her face and whispered, “If I meet other employees, they will
definitely say hello and I will have to engage in their short conversation. My time becomes
inefficient.”
The security guard standing nearby raised his eyebrows. He
wondered why Barbara was bragging. In fact, no one ever cared about Barbara’s
presence. Some employees even secretly gossiped about her.
Suddenly, Barbara put the spotlight on him. With a friendly smile, the girl greeted, “Good
morning, Sir.”
The security guard could not help but widen his eyes. “Good morning, Miss.” He bowed to
cover his surprise. However, Barbara smiled with
satisfaction.
“You see? The employees here really respect me.”
Then, with light steps, she entered the executive elevator. The audience began to believe
her story, especially when she was let through by the guards on the tenth floor.
“See? These are my brother’s bodyguards. If I didn’t work here, how could they not arrest
me?”
Arriving at Emily’s door, Barbara raised her chin. “This is my study. You will be amazed
when you see it.

Barbara attached the ID card to the door with grace. When the lock opened, she smiled
faintly. “Now, who did you call bragging?”
As soon as she entered the room, Barbara’s eyes widened. A
mannequin stood there, covered in a beautiful ball gown made from strands of beads.
‘This is truly my lucky day,’ Barbara said inwardly. She could use it for completing her
charade.
