Chapter 285 Hehe, did you miss me? (2/2)
”That Stella Du is indeed a miserable young miss!”
”Ill-mannered girl, tsk.”
”Tch, just because her family had been in this line of business for a long time— she thinks she's better than anyone.”
”Don't worry, Miss Yang. We had tried your product and it's way better than that unreasonable brat.” One after another, Lexi's group-mates spouted their dissatisfaction towards Stella Du and one meek lady cheered Lexi who was still under a huge question mark on what was happening.
”Ah? But, I am not competing with her.” Blinking her eyes numerous times, Lexi scanned her groupmate's faces with a puzzled look plastered across her face.
She could not understand the hype as Lexi has another agenda which was establishing her own company and her products to prospect business partners. After all, she could not afford a grand launching anymore as she was low on cash. Hence, this would be the perfect chance to be her launch instead because she knew that investors and businessmen that were interested in the beauty industry would soon fill the venue.

”No, no, Churu don't leave me...” Lexi's desperate pleas were the last words she heard. Even before opening her eyes as her soul returned to her original body, she could feel the torment in her heart... a much graver pain than her everyday angst.
”Welcome back, Alvah... or should I still call you Churu?” A gentle, a thousand times more soothing and harmonizing than Lillian Yang's gentle voice reached her ear.
Without opening her eyes, the woman lying on a marble rectangular table slightly raised her scarred hand and slid it in the air a little— opening a space and then slid her hand inside before slowly retracting it with a pack of facial masks.
Magically, the packaging instantly vanished and only the facial mask itself was left on her much too scarred hand. She then placed it on her face but this time, she didn't have to cut the mask to fit her small figure like back when she was a dumpling because the facial mask could perfectly fit her human-like facial build.
”Now it feels better...” She spoke under her breath before slowly opening her eyes to welcome the blinding light in this empty white space.
”How—” Just before the ethereal beauty that no one on earth could par with her blemish-free skin, long lashes, fleek brows, pointy nose, blonde curly hair, and a pair of blue orbs, she halted midway due to the sudden assault caused by the violent demon.
”Hehe, did you miss me?” Lifting the woman by her neck, her long clothing slid down, revealing bigger scars that touched every part of her skin. There seemed to not be any part left untouched as her scars could be seen on every part of her exposed skin including the gaps in between her fingers, her neck, even the tip of her toes were scarred.
An unfathomable blood desire then flashed across Alvah's pair of silver eyes. Within a second, she snapped the woman's neck with a devious smirk beneath the facial mask.
