Ever since the conclusion of the Grand Design Expo, clips of Zora challenging the judges‘ authority began circulating online. No matter which segment it was, Zora came off as irrational–despite winning third place, she still questioned the judges‘ decisions.
The internet erupted in backlash.
\[Does she really think her designs are the best? Arrogant much?]

\[It’s her again! She rigged the results as a judge during the piano competition. Now that she’s a contestant, she suspects everyone else of cheating? Pathetic.]
\[Clearly can’t handle losing. She made a bet to quit the design world if she lost, and now she’s just throwing a tantrum.]
\[With that attitude, I’d never wear anything from her brand. Disgusting.]
\[The first–place “Divine Light” collection was a thousand times better than her heavy mess of a lineup!]
As netizens piled on the criticism, a new bombshell dropped: a blurry yet unmistakable video surfaced, showing Zora in an intimate situation with Connor in a public restroom.

The hashtags shot up trending lists. Paired with the previous design scandal, Zora’s public image plummeted.
[She’s seriously disgusting. More skeletons in her closet than a cemetery.]
[She acts classy but turns out to be sleazy trash.]
Socialite? More like desperate floozy.]
With the rumors spiraling out of control, Zora went into hiding. Meanwhile, her mother Ximena took over company affairs. Upon learning of the scandal, Ximena nearly lost it.
How could the daughter she raised end up this trashy?
Speechless with fury, Ximena finally composed herself and took action.
“Don’t let Zora know about this yet,” she ordered her assistant. “Get the PR team on this immediately. Also, find out who leaked that video–1 want them prosecuted.”
“Yes, ma’am
Ho matter how bad things got, Zora was still her daughter. As a mother, Ximena had a duty to protect her no matter the cost

Chapter 521
But she hadn’t taken more than a few steps when a voice called out behind her.
“Miss Harris!”
Zora turned and saw Yasmin marching toward her.
“Yasmin?”
With red–rimmed eyes and trembling lips, Yasmin stomped forward, raised her hand–and slapped Zora across the face.
Smack!
Zora’s bodyguards immediately surged forward, but she held up a hand to stop them.
Clutching her stinging cheek, Zora stared at Yasmin in disbelief. “What the hell, Yasmin? Why did you hit me?!”
Yasmin broke into tears, face twisted with fury. “You’re asking me why? Why don’t you tell me why you stole my boyfriend?!”
Zora’s heart jumped. She hadn’t expected this confrontation–but she kept calm. “You must be mistaken. I never stole anyone.”
“Still pretending?” Yasmin’s voice cracked. “On Reese’s birthday, yes–he got drunk and did something awful. I was furious. I broke up with him for a bit. But I never wanted it to be over. We were supposed to work things out.
“But you–how quickly you moved in. Seducing him while we were apart!”
Zora’s expression faltered. Yasmin continued, her voice rising, “I asked Connor! He told me everything! That night you drugged his drink–then lured him to a gallery! You knew exactly what you were doing!”
“I never-”
“Save it! The video’s online! The one of you and him hooking up in the restroom! And you’re still playing innocent?!”
Zora’s eyes widened in horror. “What… what video?”
