"Thanks, | guess it's about t| got engaged, you know? My boyfriend's been breathing down my neck. He's paranoid I'll fall for

question. Hilarious, right?”

Arabella laughed, instantly understanding the boyfriend's predicament.

“You've got to come, okay? Even though we just met today, | really like you. Oh, right, did you need something? Wanted to ask if

David got the tea? He drank it. Heard it was from you and was thrilled."

"No, it's not about the tea." Arabella smiled. "Ms. Kiki mentioned you had a mask for someone."

"Yeah, Summer's due any minute, and she never shows her face when she makes an entrance, so Ms. Kiki askedto get a mask

Arabella just smiled knowingly.

"You don't know Ms. Kiki, do you? Or is it Summer you're acquainted with? It seemed too coincidental. One second I'm telling you

Merry couldn't make it because of sscandal, the next Summer's offering to step in. It's you, isn't it? You've done your brother a

solid!"

Just then, Arabella's phone rang. It was a video call from Ms. Kiki.

"Ms. Kiki." Arabella answered, greeting her warmly.

"Summer, darling, I've asked David's assistant, Jossie, to prepare a beautiful mask for you. Just pick it up backstage. They've got

stylists and makeup artists there, and a selection of dresses. I'm still abroad and can't make it back in time. Will you be okay on

your own?"

"No problem."

"Thanks, dear. Once I've wrapped up things here, we'll catch up."

"Sure thing."

Jossie stood frozen, speechless with shock.

"Oh, and are you backstage? Did you see Jossie? | want to have a word with her."

Arabella handed the phone to Jossie.

Jossie barely registered taking the phone, stunned silent until Ms. Kiki finished talking. She couldn't believe it. David's sister was

Summer.

And the kicker was, even David didn't know his sister's true identity.

"Jossie, are you listening to me?" Ms. Kiki's voice cfrom the other end of the video call.

"Yes." Jossie snapped back to reality. "I've got everything you mentioned. There are plenty of masks and gowns for Summer to

choose from. If she's not satisfied, our stylists can customize on the spot."

"As for the makeup and hair, we can use David's team. I'll also make sure the backstage crew keeps all details about Summer

confidential. After her performance, we'll have security and a car ready to escort her out, no disturbances."

"I'm just worried, Summer's all by herself."

"Don't worry, I'll stick by her side. If she's thirsty, I'll get her a drink. Hungry, I'll fetch her something to eat. | promise to take good

care of her."

"Thanks a bunch. | owe you dinner when | get back."

"Please, Ms. Kiki, it's | who should thank you for coming through in a pinch."
