Chapter 50: Her rise, their fall.

"Wow..." Elise’s eyes twinkled, staring at the mirror with the clothes Fil gave her as a present. "Aren’t these expensive? But wait, we don’t have the same body type, but this fits me perfectly."

Elise blinked in excitement, touching her flustered cheek. "This dress is pretty."

Tears formed in the corner of her eyes, thinking Fil bought this dress for her. That was the only explanation for this dress to fit her so perfectly.

"Fil, did you really buy these for me!?" Elise yelled, gazing at the bathroom where Fil was. "This dress, bag, and heels?! Are these really for me?"

Elise only heard Fil’s faint chuckle from the shower, hearing the latter answer, "Yes."

"Fil..." Elise’s lips quivered, moved by Fil’s gesture. She looked back at the mirror, looking at herself from up and down. "These are from the MG brand, right? Fil, are you secretly rich? All your clothes are from the MG brand! That’s a luxury clothing line, isn’t it?"

She pouted as Fil didn’t respond this time. "They’re so pretty. I feel bad wearing one," she murmured, but then smiled, dusting off her clothes carefully.

As Elise waited for Fil to finish changing into a dress, the door slowly creaked open. She raised her brows, lifting her eyes to the window. Her eyes dilated as her jaw dropped. Turning her head in a hurry, Elise’s breath hitched as she instinctively touched her chest.

There, coming out of the bathroom, was Fil in a silk-fitted dress. Fil had a petite body type, but she had a good cup size and her buttocks gave her a great shape. No one knew about that because she often wore loose clothing. Fil also had big curls that cascaded down her exposed shoulder. But that wasn’t what astounded Elise, but the fact that this dress showed too much skin.

She could even glimpse at Fil’s side boob! When Fil turned a little, she covered her mouth. It was a deep backless dress showing Fil’s entire back.

"Oh, my god..." Elise blurted out in disbelief. "Fil, are you a model?"

"Huh?" Fil looked back, brows furrowed.

"Dang... you’re hot!" Elise couldn’t blink for a second, mesmerized by the sight before her. "You’re making me bend."

This dress was far different from the ones she wore in the office. Although Fil had shown a little skin more than she used to in the office, it wasn’t too revealing. But this dress, although quite revealing, made her look more sophisticated.

Fil chuckled, picking up a hair clamp to tie her hair up.

"Wait!" Elise dramatically raised a hand to stop Fil. "You’re going to put your hair up?"

"Mhm." Fil hummed, nodding while clamping her hair in a low bun. "My friend told me that it’s best if I put my hair up if I wear this dress."

"But..." Elise trailed off, watching Fil clip her hair. "Your friend is right. You look more mature with your hair like that."

Fil smiled. "Liked the dress?"

"Yes!" Elise blushed. "Are they really for me?"

"Of course. When I was done fitting the clothes, I asked my friend for a favor," Fil explained, recalling how she saw the dress Elise was wearing and asked Dustin if she could take it.

She told Dustin it was for a friend, and he asked for a picture. Fortunately, Fil had Elise’s photo in one of their group pictures. Thus, Dustin threw her a pair of heels and a bag to match with the dress. That pair was the only thing she paid for because she meant to give it to Elise.

"Fil..." Elise whimpered, taking little steps to Fil. She bear-hugged Fil. "Why are you so kind to me? Are you perhaps my guardian angel in disguise?"

Fil chuckled, patting Elise back. "You should touch up your makeup."

"How about you?" Elise looked up and then shook her head. "Right. You don’t need it. You look so damn hot."

"You’re so silly. Go. I’ll just check on Kenzo."

"Okay~!"

With that being said, Elise released Fil as she hurriedly rummaged through her bag to do her makeup. Meanwhile, Fil sauntered over to the mirror and checked herself. This dress still made her feel shy, just like how it made her feel when she tried it on. However, this dress was perfect for the occasion.

’I just have to be confident,’she told herself, nodding to herself. ’Just like what Kim said, I have to be comfortable in my own skin.’

Fil closed her eyes momentarily, remembering all the faces she would be expecting at that party. When she reopened her eyes, she looked at herself with more determination and confidence.

’Those people had no shame,’ she thought, walking out of the bedroom to check on Kenzo. ’So, why would I feel ashamed?’

"Kenzo, are you alright?" Fil asked as soon as she stepped out of the bedroom, catching Kenzo sitting on the couch with his phone.

"Mhm. You girls take your time. I told you I have so much time," Kenzo said in disinterest. "I was supposed to be working late, right? So..."

Kenzo trailed off as he looked back when he sensed Fil’s presence. She had her hands propped on the backrest of the sofa, tilting her head, smiling at him.

"So?" Fil fluttered her eyelashes. "Are you okay?"

"This is scary," Kenzo blurted out, eyes going down her shoulder, but lifted his eyes before his gaze went lower. He moved away, shocked. "Are you going to that party wearing that?"

"Mhm. Is there something wrong with it?"

"No." He shook his head. "It’s... it’s good. But Fil, don’t come up from behind me like that, and don’t smile like that."

"Why?"

"It’s scary!" he gasped. "I know you! I know what you’re doing. Don’t make me your guinea pig! I’m not falling for it."

The side of her lips stretched from ear to ear, giggling. "Oh... Kenzo. You’re making me sound like a mad conspiracy theorist."

"Go." Kenzo waved dismissively, looking away from her. "Even if I don’t like you, I’m a man. Begone, temptation. I’m not interested in you."

Fil chuckled, keeping her eyes on Kenzo, who kept his eyes away from her. She stepped out to check on Kenzo, but also to see his reaction. She was comfortable doing this with him because she knew Kenzo wouldn’t do anything. It was worth it, though.

’Even if he’s a gentleman, he still reacted strongly,’she thought, lifting her eyes away, smirking briefly. ’The nature of men remains unchanged. Kenzo might have great self-control over temptation, but not them. Vincent, you’ll soon understand how it feels to be betrayed by your best friend.’
