Part 1: Affair, Betrayal & Comeback—Introducing The Fashion Queen Returns Plot
The Fashion Queen Returns plot opens with Eve Corbelle living a content life as a housewife and a mother when she’s reunited with CEO Giovanni, who wanted Eve to return to Rogue magazine. Before becoming a housewife, Eve was the queen of fashion who worked as an editor-in-chief at Rogue magazine.
But Eve wasn’t interested in returning to the fashion world, which needed her; rather, she was happy at home taking care of her family and being someone’s wife and mother. However, she wanted to further establish her husband’s career as she asked Giovanni to draw up a contract for her husband and send him a Grand Maple Gala invite.
This wasn’t the first time Eve Corbelle had pulled her connections to help her husband’s career. She was the main force who had been helping Shawn Rockwell build his fashion brand brick by brick, all while she stayed away from the limelight.
However, Eve Corbelle didn’t realize she was wasting her time and efforts on the wrong man until she walked in on him cheating on her with a young model. But Shawn’s affair had been going on for far too long and was supported by Shawn’s mother and their daughter Lily.
After facing the ultimate betrayal, Eve Corbelle chose divorce as she left her cheating husband and ungrateful daughter Lily.
Welcomed back to the fashion world by Giovanni, Eve Corbelle announced her return and her decision to reclaim her title as the Queen of Fashion. Her return meant regrets for the Rockwell family, who were brought to their knees begging for mercy as Eve vowed revenge.

But Shawn Rockwell was a cheater, a liar who was ungrateful for everything his wife Eve sacrificed on his account. Unaware of Eve’s influence or power, he called her unworthy and undeserving to be his wife as he openly cheated on her with model Karen Bradley.
With divorce, Shawn thought he won by kicking his poor housewife to the curb, but little did he know Eve Corbelle was going to reclaim her empire and come after Shawn to take everything she gave him.

However, with Eve destroying Shawn’s career, Karen realized she had fumbled big after losing everything.
