Chapter 209 Lastest Collection
Kate was shocked by how bold Ruth was being. She looked at Ruth with anger and disbelief, clenching her fists, and said sarcastically, “Imagine if Holly could see how much she did for you, and here you are, acting like she meant nothing, even after she’s gone.”
“Do you think she’d be mad enough to return and have it out with you?
Ruth looked slightly scared but got her act together quickly and said, “We weren’t even that close; quit making stuff up!”
Seeing that Ruth wasn’t going to budge, Eric looked even more unimpressed. He took Kate’s hand, trying to calm her down, and said in a chill way, “Let’s not even bother talking to her.”
Kate took a deep breath, trying to cool off, and said with a sharp tone, “Well, you’re going to have to face the music. I’d save any excuses for the cops.”

Kate couldn’t help but feel really uneasy seeing him like that.
Lately, it felt like they were at the hospital more than anywhere else. Eric managed to keep the whole car crash thing quiet, making sure no one knew who was involved because of Kate’s big launch for HN Studio coming up. They couldn’t afford any bad press right now.
The next day went by without any drama. Despite Holly passing away and Ruth getting arrested, there was still no sign of Simon.

With George in such bad shape, Kate decided to get a caregiver for him in the hospital so she could focus on sorting things out at Summer Estate.
Lucas popped by to see George again, noting how they seemed to have this funny routine. One gets out of the hospital, and the other lands back in. Kate couldn’t help but find humour in their back–and–forth mishaps.
The time finally rolled around for HN Studio to debut its latest collection.
At HN Studio’s entrance was Kate, stealing the spotlight in a stunning red dress that screamed confidence and charm.
The press was all over her, trying to get the best shot, totally in awe, while the crowd was buzzing with excitement, all geared up to see the ten new outfits being introduced. These were special, each limited to just ten pieces, with more to come post–production.
As Kate wrapped up her welcome speech, it was showtime. The models took to the stage individually, displaying these incredible designs that were just as much a hit with the audience as they had hoped.
