It was a deeply vicious move.
"I'm not interested in your explanations. If you'll excuse me, I have somewhere to be," Elena said coldly, turning on her heel and leaving.
Elaine hadn't been in the corporate world for long, but standing there, the brutal truth finally hit her. She realized exactly who had engineered her demise.
From start to finish, she had been nothing but a pawn in their vicious game.
As Elena reached the ground floor of the building, Elaine came sprinting after her.
"Elena Whelan!"
Elena stopped and cast a slow glance over her shoulder.
"What am I supposed to call you now? Aurora, or Elena?" Elaine asked, her voice trembling.
"I just want to be Elena. I have no interest in being Aurora."
Elaine let out a hollow, tragic laugh. "But I still want to call you Aurora. Do you know that you destroyed my ultimate dream? Aurora has always been my idol. I spent my whole life trying to reach her level, praying that one day I'd meet her, that she'd look at my designs. I fantasized about standing next to her countless times, just to see my hero in the flesh."
"But I never in a million years imagined it would be you! The sacred, untouchable Aurora in my mind turned out to be you! You ruined my dream! You ruined my idol!"
Elena's expression remained perfectly stoic. "I didn't ruin you. You ruined yourself. If you had actually focused on your craft instead of resorting to underhanded tricks, you wouldn't have strayed so far off the path, and you wouldn't have been so easily used."
"Then why didn't you tell me from the start? Why didn't you say you were Aurora? Why did you let me boss you around and make things difficult for you? Do you have any idea how sacred Aurora was to me? She was supposed to be a goddess, not some lowly, pathetic intern!" Elaine screamed hysterically.
Meanwhile, back at LUMEN Studio.
Nicole slumped against the wall in front of Claire and Sienna, practically trembling with regret.
She had genuinely believed that by clinging to Elaine, she could smoothly transition into a high-paying role at Prism Creative Agency. Elaine had sworn to take her along.
But now, Elaine had been discarded like a broken toy, blacklisted by the entire industry. Her career was completely dead.
That meant Nicole's last escape route had vanished. She didn't even have the courage to look Claire in the eye.
"Claire, I'm so sorry. I lost my mind. It's all my fault. You can do whatever you want to me... I'm so sorry..." Nicole sobbed miserably.
