Chapter 487 Gina’s Call

“Come on, don’t be so formal with me,” Gina said with a playful smirk. “We’re friends already, remember?

If you’re busy, I’ll pick you up myself and take you somewhere fun.”

Dawn paused for a moment. A little escape didn’t sound so bad.

“Alright. I’ll wait for you.”

She straightened her workspace, gave Mason a few quick instructions, then went downstairs.

A sleek red Ferrari pulled up just as she stepped outside. The sunlight reflected off the car’s polished surface, and Gina, with her ruby–red lips and flawless hair, looked like she belonged on the cover of a luxury magazine.

“Oh my god, you’ve gone all minimalist on me.”

Gina pursed her lips, then grinned. “Still stunning, though. It’s a more refined kind of beautiful.”

Dawn slid into the passenger seat, buckled up, and sighed. “If you saw how chaotic my days have been, you’d forgive the fact that I barely had time to brush my hair.”

“No, no,” Gina laughed, flashing a row of perfect white teeth. “You don’t need forgiveness from me. You could show up in sweatpants and still pull it off.”

Dawn chuckled. “You have a way with compliments.”

She didn’t bother asking where they were headed. The wind through the open window cooled her face, and for the first time in days, the pressure in her chest eased.

The Ferrari roared out of the city, the skyline fading behind them as they drove toward the industrial outskirts.

When they finally pulled into a gated complex, Gina leaned against the wheel, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

“You trust me that much? You’re not even a little worried I might drag you somewhere shady?”

“Would you actually do that?” Dawn asked with a calm smile.

“Of course not.”

“Then why would I be worried?”

Gina was more prominent than she was. She would be wasting her time if she tried to set a nobody like Dawn up.

Gina laughed, raising her hands in defeat. “Fair point. Maybe that’s what I like about you. Anyway, I want to show you my secret spot. Let’s go.”

Neither of them realized that this so–called “secret spot” would end up solving one of Dawn’s biggest

headaches.

Inside the compound, workers in dark blue uniforms passed by, greeting Gina with friendly smiles and

nods.

“Surprised?” Gina asked as they walked. There was a spark of mystery in her tone. “No one knows about this place. Not even my family. You’re the first person I’ve brought here.”

Dawn tilted her head slightly. “Ooh, you flatter me.”

“Let’s not get dramatic,” Gina teased, laughing at her calm response. “Come on, this way.”

The property was enormous, divided into several specialized sections, each focused on something different.

As they walked, Dawn couldn’t help but be impressed.

It wasn’t just her wealth that kept Gina at the top. It was her sharp mind, her boldness, and her ability to execute ideas like a seasoned executive.

“I’ve always loved anything connected to sports,” Gina said, her tone lighter now. “My first job was at a tiny outdoor brand. I started there as a designer.”

Gina turned her head, seeing surprise flickering across Dawn’s face.

“You didn’t see this coming, did you?”

“Not really,” Dawn said honestly. “I always thought you were the type to graduate and walk straight into your family’s company.”

“I used to be a nightmare,” Gina replied, her lips curling in a half–smile. “You’d never believe it, but I spent almost my entire college life skipping class.”

“You skipped school to work?”

“I did.”

Dawn blinked, then raised her thumb in silent approval.

“I always knew what I wanted,” Gina said. “But before I got there, I needed to learn how to survive. How to understand the rules. How to fight in a world that doesn’t play fair. Otherwise, there was no way I could stand against my brothers and sisters.”

Those lessons. couldn’t be found in a family office.

She had carved her own path, and she’d won.

Gina brought Dawn into a massive production hall. “This place is probably larger than your family’s factory. But it never takes our family’s contracts. We only take outside orders.”

Dawn stared, speechless.

Chapter 487 Gina’s Call

A while later, she turned her attention to Gina.

“You own something this huge?” she asked, disbelief lacing her voice.

Her eyes swept over the rows of machines, the polished metal, and the sleek car emblems that shimmered under the lights. Every logo belonged to a luxury brand.

Gina tilted her chin up with a faint, proud smile. “I’m not bragging. I just don’t have anyone to share it with. You understand that feeling? This is what I’m most proud of.”

Dawn’s voice softened. “It’s an honor to see it. I swear.”

“Then promise me you’ll keep quiet.”

“Not a word,” Dawn replied firmly.

Their eyes met, and a brief smile passed between them. Gina began explaining everything, from blueprints to finished models, every detail clear and precise.

Dawn could tell this wasn’t just business to her. It was passion.

“There aren’t many women who love this kind of work like you do,” Dawn said.

Gina spread her hands.

“Maybe I was a mechanic in another life. This stuff’s in my veins. You can’t force it out, and you can’t fake it.”

Dawn nodded. “Alright. Let’s go back.”

“Sure. I’ll drive.”

The weather was perfect. The ride back to the city was wrapped in a sea of bright blue sky and drifting white clouds.

When Gina glanced over, she saw Dawn staring out the window, her mind clearly caught on something heavy.
