Chapter 77 Trotundo was once a legend in the fashion world .
Years ago , as prestigious luxury brands were fading under the weight of tradition , unable to keep up with the evolving trends of the new generation , it was the 25 year old Leonardo who stepped in , taking matters into his own hands .
He crafted a new line of clothes and bags that perfectly captured the zeitgeist of the modern era .
His designs saved these old brands from disaster , reviving them and ushering the fashion world into a Now , at 33 , Leonardo had been in the industry for over a decade .
Despite his years , he still looked youthful and handsome .
In the fashion world , people called him Master -a tile that reflected his unshakable , exalted position His protege .
Sally , was the person he most admired , but there was also Zora Flaine .
Leonardo had once seen Elaine as his heir , his successor .
But Elaine was too unconventional , too rebellious .
She wasnt someone to be confined to one industry , and that caused a complex mix of love and frustration for Leonarda .
Elaine , for her part , hadnt responded to the older mans feelings in quite some time .
She had walked away from the Yeats family , and now , with her return to the world of fashion , she was determined to reclaim the glory that had once been hers Yes , Master , Ive returned to Hosgland , Elaine replied when she uw Leonardos message I knew it Leonardo responded , his words warm with nostalgia .
Zora .
Ive always said youre a diamond that can never be tarnished .
Even though I havent seen you in years , I knew that someday , youd return .
And now , here you are .
Flame felt a pang of guils as she read his message .
She had abandoned so much when she left the Yeats family .
But now that she had returned to her true self , she was ready to reclaim what was rightfully hers .
Leonardo continued , This year , Im preparing for a Spring / Fall Haute Couture show in Hosgland .
Im in need of a model for the closing walk .
Zora .
Id like to invite you Elaine was momentarily stunned .
That was a twist she hadnt expected .
It was almost as if she had no choice but to agree .
Yet , deep down , she knew that agreeing to this meant exposing herself eventually .
She was bound to be unmasked But , having already made up her mind to no longer be Blancas shadow , she didnt care .
Alright , Ill do it , Elaine said , her decision made .
After a brief chat with Leonardo , she returned to the website , only to find herself bombarded with private messages .
One was from a familiar face- Venom Elaine remembered Venom well .
They had worked together on a major hacking incident years ago .
Anorland , a notorious group of hackers , had launched a brutal attack on Hosgland , but Venom and Flaine had teamed up to break through their defenses .
They had hijacked the hackers network , leaving them with a year long blackout .
The incident had caused a massive stir on the site , cementing both of their reputations , Venoms message was simple .
Velvet , youre back ? Elaine grinned and replied with a single word , Yeah .
Venom didnt reply .
Both were men of few words , but when they worked together , their collaboration was flawless .
Then , there was another message , this one from an unfamiliar user with the ID Stormstrike .
ΠΕ Velvet , theyre all saying youre a big shot .
Youd better prove it .
If you take on the latest Level 4 mission , Ill believe youre the real deal .
What do your say ? Elaine rolled her eyes .
Storstrikes tone reminded her far too much of her troublesome brother , Trevon .
Trevon .
I swear , Elaine muntered under her breath , How could anyone he so obnoxious ! Stormstrike , sensing no response , pressed on , Whats wrong ? You scared ? Then he added , Lets make a bet lets see whos better , you or Nocturne .
I dont know who you are in real life , but Nocturne is the real deal Elaine w was fed up .
She responded curtly .
Not my problem , not yours , got it ? Without hesitation , she blocked him .
She had never seen such a delusional fan .
A fan war , of all things , had somehow ended up on her doorstep .
Trevon , still fuming from being ignored , was about to take to the forum to rant when a response caught his eye .

Download Chapter 77 What ? You dare question Velvets abilities ? Youd better delete that comment now , or youll be the laughing stock of the forum .
Im doing this for your own good ! The replies flooded in , ridiculing him mercilessly .
The support for Velvet was overwhelming .
Trevon had no words left , and for the first time , he felt completely out of his depth .
Velvet had fans everywhere .
How could he argue with that ? Elaine didnt care to stay on the site any longer .
She was hungry .
She had only had a pack of milk earlier , and she was still growing .
She needed something more substantial .
As she made her way downstairs , she ran into Abbot and Grace Elaine Abbot greeted her warmly .
Grandma .
Elaine replied , giving her a small smile .
Abbot , unlike before , was no longer distant or solemn , He now regarded Elaine with a sort of adoration , as if she were a hero .
After all , she could shoot walk the runway , and play the cello all talents he admired deeply Elaine , is there something you need ? Abbot asked eagerly .
Elaine rubbed her stomach , saying she was hungry .
Abbot immediately clapped his chest and said , Youre hungry ! Perfect 11l have the chefs make you something special .
You were so tired at the charity event , playing that difficult piece .
Youre so small and yet played so masterfully .
You need to eat well to keep your strength up .
What would you like ? Ill have it prepared right away .
If they dont make it well .
Ell hire another chef to make sure youre satisfied Elaine couldnt help but laugh at the sudden change in Abbots demeanor .
She sat down , amused by how he fawned over her now , As they enjoyed their meal , the doorbell rang .
The Yeats family had arrived , requesting to see Elaine .
The butler , watching Elaine at the table , looked at her with awe .
She was radiant now , no longer the messy , downtrodden girl who had left the Years family .
He couldnt help but marvel at how things had changed .
The Years family had once viewed her as just another poor relative .
But now , things were unfolding in ways no one could understand .
Tucker , it seemed , had almost broken ties with his own family because of Elaine .
Even though he was still at home , his sarcastic tone had made life unbearable for Tracy and Bianca , yet they couldnt do anything about it .
