75 ( The boss hand is hanging )
“Ladies and Gentlemen, what you have been waiting for is finally here!! The sales party!!!
People were already on their seats as a man in expensive suits and glasses took the stage.
“Just like everywhere, this would be like a fashion week except we are having a competition to buy the next cloth in LA and we will be welcoming various CEOs of fashion designing owners to the front desk” the man announced, and clapping was heard.
“First, we will be welcoming the CEO of Latin wears, Mr Marcus Maecenas” he called and a tall slim, and Handsome young man stood up and went to one of the front tables.
“Next is the CEO of GLAMEROUS Austin Glamorous” he called and the ex-boss of Skyler stood up and went to take the front roll.
“The CEO of D•S styles” It was Mason’s turn and as if he carried a lot of power, the place shook for him alone.
Everyone was clapping, grandpa Mario and Skyler had a proud look on their face as he carried his perfect physique to the stage to sit on his chair.
“Our boss is the most handsome in this role,” Cynthia said from the backroom, they were getting ready with their models and also peeping at what was going on.
Jasper scoffed.
“Oh please, he is the only one putting on a nose mask, you don’t even know what he looks like under the mask, maybe half of his lips are burnt” Jasper rolled his eyes.
“Or maybe he looks more handsome, quit being jealous!” Cynthia scoffed and Jasper rolled his eyes again.
The backdoor opened and Felix stepped in, Lilian stood up from her chair and went to jump in his arms.
“Felix, you came,” she said with a smile and she hugged him tightly to herself.
Cynthia stared at them in confusion before taking her gaze to Skyler.
“Why is she with him? He’s from glamorous designs, we shouldn’t be with anyone from any other fashion company” she said and Skyler only shrugged her shoulders.
Felix held Lilian by the shoulder and slowly pushed her back.
“Yes I came but it wasn’t for you” he paused and looked forward. Lilian’s eyes followed him and she noticed he was looking at the people from glamorous designs.
“I came for them” he added and Lilian staggered a bit but she didn’t fall.
“You’re from glamorous and you never told me?” She said with widened eyes but he only smirked.
“You mother fûcker!” She pushed him in the chest with anger but there was no time to fight because the representative from DS was already called on stage.
“Lilian let’s go” Skyler called but Lilian didn’t want to leave, she wanted to stay and deal with Felix.
“Lilian” Cynthia moved forward grabbed her hands and pulled her out of the back room.
They went to stage and waved at everyone, Skyler was already hearing Ashley and Wendy scream her name and she wasn’t looking but Mason couldn’t keep his eyes off her, There were more than four women but she was the only one that was glowing in his eyes.
“We’ll be calling up the next contestant from Glamerous Designs,” the host said and people from Glamerous came up.
When Mason saw Felix, his eyes darkened a bit but he tried not to make it obvious and others were called out.
“We will be calling their models to do a little run away with their dresses before the sales start,” the man said and everyone turned silent, next was music that came to play.
The first set of models was from Latin wear, then from Glamorous and DS, and some others before the runaway section was over.
“Wow that was one great show, I’m sure you guys loved what you saw so it’s fine to get some of those clothes for yourself,” the host said and a male manikin was brought.
“This is from Latin wears, it’s made by Ruben Smith and it’s going with $150, 000,” he said and someone from the audience raised their hands.
“Okay, do we have a $250, 000?” The man asked again and someone raised their hand.
$300, 000, going, gone, and sold!”
People clapped as Latin wear sold their first clothes.
“We are going with another one from Glamerous” A female manikin was brought and Lilian was surprised to see it was similar to her dress.
“Isn’t that your dress Lilian” Jasper looked confused.
“This is made by Felix Newman from glamorous designs and it’s starting with $250, 000,” he said and someone from the audience raised their hands.
“Can we get a $350, 000?” The host asked.
“$400, 000,” someone said from the audience.
“$450, 000″
$500, 000!”
Lilian felt like crying with the way everyone was pricing her dress but thought it was another person who made it.
“$500, 000, going.. gone.. sold!” The host said and the people from glamorous designs began clapping and hailing Felix but Lilian was looking at him with so much anger in her.
“So we are going with another one from DS” the man announced and claps increased.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Another female manikin and it was wearing a long silver gown that was made of diamonds.
“Okay so this one is made by Skyler Wang and it’s just $500, 000 dollars, anyone?”
Edna smirked, she was about to open her mouth but Regina was quick enough to raise her hands and priced it.
“$700, 000!” Everyone gasped at what she said.
“$800, 000!!” Edna said afterward and the host gasped.
“$1M” Regina crossed her legs and gave Edna a daring look.
“Oh oh!” Hudson gasped and shook his head.
“Skyler is so lucky, everyone is fighting for her dress” Ivy gushed but Maya only rolled her eyes.
“I wanna help Skyler, $2M!!” Rosa raised her hands.
“Mom!!” Jacob said softly.
Mason was looking at the surprised look on Skyler’s face and trying not to smile.
$4M!!” Maya smirked.
“$8M!!” Regina continued.
$10M!!” Edna said and Miguel almost fell from where he was sitting. They were battling for the money he had never seen in his entire life.
$15M!” Regina glared at Edna and Zach had to rub her thighs to calm her down, Edna saw this tiny gesture from them and her blood boiled instantly.
$20M!!” She shouted and everywhere turned quiet, even the host was too dazzled to speak.
“Aunt Kiara, they love Skyler’s work!” Ashely and Wendy whispered to Kiara who was also amused with what she was saying.
“Edna calm down” Miguel whispered to her.
“I will never lose to Regina!!” Edna muttered hatefully.
$20M going, gone and…
$40M!!” Regina stood up and the gasp increased.
“Woah 40M dollars, going, gone..”
Edna wanted to talk but Miguel suddenly blocked her mouth with his palm.
“And the gown is sold to Miss Regina Wilson!!” The host said and everyone began clapping.
Skyler’s teammate began hugging her, Mason badly wanted to stand up and hug her so tight in his arms to make him proud but he pressed his arms together, controlling himself.
“Okay, we will take a thirty-minute break before we start selling other dresses” the host announced and people began leaving.

Grandpa Mario stood up and walked to Skyler, he didn’t want to act in front of everyone that he knew so he decided to be more formal.
“Skyler Wang right?” He asked and the other students were too excited to speak, Lillian had a jealous expression on her face.
“Yes sir” Skyler nodded.
“You did great, the company is proud” he smiled at her.
“Thank you, sir!” Skyler said with a bow and Grandpa Mario just nodded at her before walking away.
“Thank you, sir!!!!” Cynthia shouted after him before squealing to herself.
Next thing Mason walked towards them with Alvin standing behind him.
“Skyler?” He called and some female students almost fainted when he stretched his hands to hers, his eyes never left hers.
Skyler looked at him too, why was he looking at her with so much affection in public, she was trying not to blush or stare back.
“Skyler, the boss hand is hanging!!” Cynthia whispered and Skyler came back to her senses.
