Her gaze darted to Nate, who stood a few steps away, his arms crossed over his chest. There was no intention of stepping in—if anything, his eyes gleamed with amusement, as though he were thoroughly enjoying the show.
A fresh wave of jealousy crashed over Danna, but she swallowed it down, forcing her voice to steady. "You've got two choices, Corrine.

"Corrine, she claims this garbage is your design. Isn't that slander? And accusing our brand of fraud-sounds like defamation, don't you think?" Laughter bubbled up from Danna's throat, wild and unrestrained. “This is a design by Corry. What does that have to do with Corrine—” Then her voice died abruptly, the realization crashing into her like a tidal wave.
Her eyes widened, staring at Corrine as if seeing her for the first time. The onlookers, previously spectators to a petty squabble, now gawked at Corrine with a newfound awe.
