“I’m with one of my friends! I won’t be in danger.” “Is that friend of yours a man or a lady?” “Stop worrying about me, Mom. Just get along with Dad instead!”
“Lena, I know you can’t stand our situation right now, but it’s not like I wanted to live like this either. It’s Ellen’s fault for making our lives so miserable!”
Selena replied, “I hate Ellen’s guts! She ruined our family! Do you know that I could no longer hold my head high in front of my friends now? I dare not even buy a bag that’s worth 15,000. My friends are moving around in every way possible, yet I have no choice but to stay in that cheap rented apartment with you and Dad!
I can’t do that.” Having drunk a little just now, she went mad with rage at this very moment. Unbeknownst to her, however, Charlie was standing outside the room while she was getting so agitated.
“Lena, you’re the only person I can depend on!” “Mom, if you want to depend on me, just stay out of my life for now. I’ll get myself a rich husband.”
“In that case, Lena, you have to keep your eyes open and find a man who’s really wealthy! Don’t get taken for a ride,” Olivia said to her.
Selena reassured her, saying, “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll definitely capture the heart of a rich guy.”
Charlie’s lips curled into a sneer as Selena hung up the phone in the room. What? Selena’s family is left penniless now? They’re so poor that they have to live in a rented apartment, huh? No wonder she called me tonight. She actually wanted to hook up with someone through me! What is she taking me for? A tool?
Charlie had only gotten interested in Selena because he had heard before that she came from a rich family. However, little did he think she was actually pretending to be rich. What gives such a b*tch the right to look down on me? How dare she make me unable to hold my head up in front of my friends!
I’m gonna let this phony know the consequences she’s bringing upon herself! He wasn’t a real gentleman; instead, he was also a proud man. Since Selena dared to spurn him, she would have to pay the price for that.
After coming out of the private room, Selena immediately composed her features and put on a flirtatious smile. Naturally, she fixed her eyes on Cillian, thinking that she had to win his heart tonight and get in touch with him in the future. What if she really managed to marry into his family in the future?
Charlie was hanging out with his friends, but he didn’t come to Selena when he saw her figure emerging from the room. Instead, he only looked at her from nearby with a sinister smile.
Selena came up to Cillian with a glass of red wine in her hand. She apologized to him, saying, “Mr. Cillian, sorry for neglecting you just now. The phone call was longer than I expected.”
“Well, then, you’ve got to drink a glass of wine as punishment,” Cillian replied with a smile. To him, Selena wasn’t the prettiest woman here, but she was definitely the newest in his circle of friends, and he happened to have a preference for new ladies.
Seeing that his eyes were glued to her, Selena slowly got carried away, thinking that she was the star tonight and the woman he was courting.
Charlie’s friends continued to feel sorry for him. After all, they could tell that Selena had ditched him. They said, “Mr. Dune, your companion is so unfit for her job!”
“It’s nothing! She’s just playing around, after all. Just let her have fun for now.” Charlie let out a chuckle in a display of magnanimity.
Just then, Cillian said, “Miss Lena, I have a private room on the second floor, so what about we go upstairs and have some fun? It’s too noisy here.’ He began testing Selena’s nerves to see if she had the nerve to play with him…
What was Selena afraid of? She was afraid that she couldn’t win Cillian’s heart. She replied in secret delight, “Okay! I also think it’s too noisy here, so let’s have some fun alone.”
Charlie almost crushed the wine glass in his hand when he saw Cillian lead Selena upstairs. Inwardly, he was really angry, for Selena really didn’t give a damn about him. She actually went up to the second floor to have fun with Mr. Cillian!
He had previously thought that Selena was a principled rich heiress, but little did he think she was actually such a cheap and promiscuous lady. Ha! In that case, I’ll let her suffer a double whammy tonight!
