“That’s right! Quite mysterious, I would say.” Sensing a chance for a plan, Selena smiled and interrupted them. “You’re talking about the female companion of Young Master Jared, right? I know her!” “You know her? Which prominent family does she hail from?”
“Prominent family? I believe you are all mistaken! She’s not some daughter of a rich family! She’s only an employee that works under the young master. I think she’s an assistant.” Selena had an extremely condescending tone.
“What? Even an assistant like her can enter here?” “Are you mistaken? She doesn’t look like one.”
“How can I be mistaken? She’s my cousin!! know her the best! Her parents and brother have all passed away, leaving her all alone. Although she isn’t old by any means, she is quite sly. Otherwise, how could she have conquered Young Master Jared?”
“What? That’s the kind of person she is?” One of the women was upset.
If even a woman of such a standing can be Young Master Jared’s partner, then we’re all more than qualified to do so! These women were upset and could not accept this All of them thought that they could crush this assistant in front of them. And to think that we speculated she was some mysterious woman from an influential family!
“I heard that you’re the young master’s classmate. I think you’re the most suitable to be his companion tonight,” Selena said to the rich girl.
Her name was Dorothy Joypur. Her family meddled in the furniture industry and was well- known internationally. At that moment, she felt that Selena’s words were right.
“But doesn’t the young master already have her?”
“I have an idea that can make you become his companion tonight,” Selena touted confidently. “What idea?” Dorothy closed in. After Selena whispered something to her, Dorothy had a surprised look. “Not bad.”
“Hello, I’m Selena Aguirre. How should I address you, Miss?”
Tm Dorothy Joypur. If you help me with this, then I’ll treat you as a friend from now on,” said Dorothy, as one needed to be capable to be able to join her clique.
Naturally, Selena was all but too willing to make this friendship happen. “Alright. I’ll help you. Also, you’ll need to ask your friends to act in this too.”
Dorothy, who was the richest amongst them, said to her friends, “Cooperate with Miss Aguirre later and chase that unsightly woman away
Selena’s plan was to chase Ellen away, vacating a space as Jared’s companion, so that Dorothy could get close to him and become his partner instead.
Just as Ellen sat on the sofa for not too long, a woman suddenly called out to her, “It’s really you! I thought I mistook someone else for you!” Looking up, Ellen was a bit shocked. Selena? Why is she here?
Selena saw that Jared followed someone upstairs, so she knew that Ellen was a sitting duck. If the plan goes well, she’ll be ousted in a short while. “What do you want from me?” Ellen had a somewhat cold expression.
Sitting down, Selena hugged her arm and said, “I saw that you came with Young Master Jared. I didn’t think that you guys had progressed so quickly! Ellen, you really know your stuff!” “I don’t need you to comment on my personal life.”
“You know that every woman here is from a prominent family, right? If I told the others that you’re only an assistant, a bottom feeder, what do you think they would say about you? No matter how lavish the dress you’re wearing is, it cannot hide your meager status.” Selena laughed in a shrill tone.
Ellen had a slightly flushed face as she looked at Selena. “What exactly do you want?”
“I heard others were talking about you just now! They all thought that you were some rich girl! But I know your background the best. I can tell them about it right now, so they’ll know who you truly are.”
“Suit yourself. If you want to, then go tell the whole world!” Finding this a bit annoying, Ellen took her glass of juice and stood up.
It was then Selena stood up as well, for her objective of insulting Ellen was to make her leave her seat and walk toward the guests. Just as Ellen took a few steps, Selena suddenly. pushed her, making Ellen bump into a woman and spill her juice onto the hem of the woman’s dress.
