Carla looked at her walk-in closet, which was partially empty after she threw away the tacky clothes and shoes Ivanka had chosen.
She then stared at the contents of her wardrobe, with only the clothes she had bought before Ivanka had free access to the Miller Mansion remaining.
Miller is Carla's biological father's surname, as the owner of the Mansion, and the Miller Group, which Bastian manages, replacing Carla's father after he died.
Carla took a knee-length dress with an elastic waistband.
Carla then put it on, and her appearance immediately showed a change.
She looked more beautiful and fresh, very pleasing to the eye, with her face looking clean without heavy make-up.
Carla then grabbed her small bag, after putting in the valuables she needed to go out of the Mansion.
She remembered that after she woke up from her fainting, Ivanka would come with Bastian to provoke her step-uncle.
And she at that time, would throw herself into Bastian's arms, but then Bastian would push her away roughly, after hearing Ivanka's explanation.
Ivanka said that she deliberately threw herself into the pool to frame Ivanka, so that Bastian would kick Ivanka out of the Miller Mansion.
With Ivanka's soft and sad voice, Bastian believed every word Ivanka said.
After being reborn, Carla knew what would happen in a few minutes.
Because she was determined not to be close to Bastian anymore, Carla had to leave her room before they came to see her.
She planned to find an apartment and look for a part-time job to meet her needs.
She didn't want to live under the same roof with Bastian anymore, even though she knew the Miller Mansion was her father's inheritance, but Bastian managed it.
Five years ago, since Carla's parents died, Bastian took over the responsibility of managing the Miller Group and the Miller Mansion.
Bastian was very competent in handling the Miller Group, making it grow overseas.
And, the arrangement inside the Mansion, everything was well-organized thanks to Bastian's arrangement, as the head of the family, replacing her father.
Carla considered all of Miller's wealth to be thanks to Bastian's golden hands. So, she, as the legitimate daughter of her father and the original heir to Miller's wealth, had no right to take over the Miller Group.
She was still young and didn't know anything about business, because if she tried to take everything, the Miller Group would go bankrupt in her hands.
Therefore, she would not disturb the Miller Group.
Now she wanted to find her own happiness, not wanting to be close to Bastian anymore.
"Miss... where are you going?" Tina asked, looking at Carla in surprise.
"I want to go out, don't follow me! You just stay here to answer Bastian's questions, if he asks about my whereabouts!" Carla said flatly.
What's wrong with Miss Carla? Isn't she looking forward to meeting Mr. Bastian so much? Tina thought confusedly.
"I'm leaving first, and... I might be home late!" Carla said as she walked out of her room.
"Huh? Home late? Where are you going? You never go out of the Mansion, let alone come home at night, Miss!" Tina retorted, chasing after Carla, who was walking quickly leaving the room.
Carla didn't listen to Tina, she just kept walking with a cheerful face.
She had been given a second chance, so she wouldn't waste her time chasing Bastian's love anymore.
She was still young, she still had a long journey to love someone.
Now she wanted to have fun first, enjoying her youth.
Carla heard Ivanka's voice in the corridor leading to her room, forcing her to hide to avoid Bastian and Ivanka.
After Ivanka and Bastian entered her room, she rushed out of her hiding place.
She half ran down the stairs, smiling happily, as if freed from her cage, Carla left the Mansion.
