"You old fox."

Violet CleverRidge became curious, thinking about how Skylar Hampton had torn up the business card Lola Hussey had given her earlier and how Lola Hussey now knew Mr. Ainsley...

She couldn't resist testing the waters, asking, "It seems that Lola and Mr. Ainsley are quite close?"

Of course, Vania Crawford knew she was being probed: "There are always places beyond the reach of the entertainment industry. I'm not very clear; I only manage Lola's matters within the entertainment industry."

Her answer was watertight.

Violet CleverRidge gently nudged Vania's arm: "You cunning old fox."

Vania just smiled, not saying anything.

She prepared to get up and take the trophy from Lola's hands.

As Lola descended the steps, her hands were in front of her chest, one holding the trophy and the other watching the steps below. She thought that Ethan would most likely extend his arm to support her just as he had done earlier.

And, of course, he didn't.
