Chapter 6 Foxy's Return
914 Words
Half an hour later, Cecilia arrived at Future Star Media with Nico in tow.
"Don't worry, I've prepared everything you need," Sabina announced, placing a vast array of makeup products on the table, her eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation. "If they knew Foxy was back, they'd be even more thrilled than I am."
Nico clung to Cecilia's clothes, cooing, "Mommy, I want to play the makeup game too."
"All right, all right, no problem. I will do your makeup in a bit," Sabina said, patting Nico's head affectionately. She found it impossible to resist the charm of this adorable little girl.
"Mommy, are we going to make a video?" Nico asked.
Cecilia pecked Nico's cheek, saying softly, "We're going to do a live stream."
Then, Sabina had her assistant take Nico to get made up and dressed while Cecilia started applying her own makeup. Twenty minutes later, Cecilia appeared in front of everyone with a stunningly beautiful look that was drastically different from her usual innocent and cute image.
This time, her makeup was bold and sexy, almost making Sabina fail to recognize her.
After a brief preparation, Sabina started the live stream.
Although there were only a few audiences at first, Cecilia's professionalism didn't allow her to slack off.
She actively engaged with them, warming up the atmosphere. Despite being away from her job for several years, she showed no signs of nervousness.
"Hello everyone, I'm your friend Foxy. You must be curious why I disappeared for four years. Let me share my story with you," Cecilia began, briefly talking about her marriage and introducing Nico to everyone.
The Livestream channel's activity exceeded her expectations, with viewership numbers quickly surpassing 100 thousand as curious onlookers flooded in.
"Is that really Foxy? She looks different from four years ago."
"Could someone be impersonating her to deceive us?"
"Foxy was once the top beauty blogger. It's impossible for her to disappear and reappear without any signs."
Facing various doubts on the Livestream channel, Cecilia smiled gently and started to sing a song.
"This song was Foxy's favorite. She often sang it during her live streams four years ago!"
An experienced fan recognized this song.
"Besides, Foxy was a beauty blogger. It's normal for her to change her makeup and look different."
"Wow, Foxy has actually returned!"
The channel instantly erupted with excitement. Foxy had been the makeup inspiration for many girls, so her return brought back many youthful memories.
For a while, the channel was dominated by a flood of gifts.
Cecilia quietly turned off the screen, saying, "I just wanted to chat with all of you. No gifts needed."
Before marrying Justin, she was the most popular beauty blogger on the net. However, the Quinn family deemed blogging unrespectable, forcing Cecilia to give it up.
She had given up everything for Justin out of love, but now, she only wanted to love herself.
Justin received several sympathetic calls from friends early in the morning.
"What a pity. Cecilia is such a good girl."
Listening to his friends' regretful tones on the phone, Justin somehow felt a surge of anger. What a good girl? She was just a woman greedy for vanity.
What was there to pity!
Besides, Evan even defended Cecilia in front of him. What the hell was he thinking about?
Why they bothered to put on such a meaningless show?
Wondering when Cecilia and Evan got together made Justin so angry that he skipped his meal and had his driver take him to the Gelo Club.
Sitting in the dimly lit corner of the private room, his expression was hard to read, but his glass never emptied.
"Stop drinking. Look how popular your wife—oh, ex-wife—is," Lucas Vinchy said gleefully, showing him the headlines on his phone about Justin, Evan, and Cecilia's complicated love triangle.
Justin glanced at the headlines, his face growing even darker.
"She's just my ex-wife. What's there to care about."
"Indeed, but we all know how kind she was to you over the years. Sure, she used some underhanded methods to marry you, but it benefited you too," Lucas remarked.
His words seemed to remind Justin of all the things Cecilia had done for him over the years. Justin leaned back, took a deep breath, and massaged his temples.
That foolish woman! With no family background or support, how dare she get the audacity to ask for a divorce?
Was she with Evan all along?
Thinking this made Justin's face turn even uglier.
"I've seen many women like her. She's just retreating to advance. She's seeking a divorce to provoke your guilt, hoping to ask for more compensation later," Kurt Ruben added hastily when noticing Justin's upset mood.
"Don't worry. She'll beg to get back together with you within half a year. Just don't be soft-hearted then."
Hearing this, Justin felt slightly better.
But soon after, he was annoyed again. He would never trust Cecilia again, a woman full of schemes.
"Foxy's back!" Lucas suddenly exclaimed, then sent the link to a Livestream channel to Justin. "Justin, our plan to break into the beauty industry might just work!"
Justin had always wanted to enter the beauty industry but lacked a suitable method and opportunity. Hearing Lucas' words, he perked up immediately.
But then, Lucas squinted and asked suspiciously, "But... Don't you think Foxy looks like your ex-wife?"
Taking over Lucas' phone, Justin saw the woman on the screen, and his eyes widened in shock.
