Another Foiled Plan

"It is you!  You planned this.  You harmed me!"  Karla was hysterical as she pointed her hands to Aryana.  She wanted to grab her hair and slapped her real hard.

"What did I do?  You accompanied me here to clean up."  Aryana maintained her innocent voice.

"It is supposed to be you, not me!"  Karla shouted.  Marriane glared at her and signaled with her eyes to stop exposing herself.

Erik who was standing at the door looked at Aryana and his lips curled up.  He understood what happened.

'Smart girl.'  He praised her silently.  Their gazes met briefly then he left.  He is not worried about her.  She can perfectly take care of herself.

The bodyguards came and cleared the area.

Marriane recovered her senses.  She took a robe from the bathroom and put it on Karla.  They drove the magazine editor out of the room.  Aryana also left the room.

Karla was sobbing.  She was inconsolable.  Her reputation was ruined.
