Though their tone had jealousy, there was also envy, and what they were saying was true.
This is how society is.
Barbara Sutton recalled Monica Usher’s words last night and the card she left behind, feeling somewhat unsettled about choosing her life path.
"Life only bullies the poor, and so does love."
This sentence left a deep impression.
After seven or eight stops on the bus, it came to a halt in front of the Kingston Group building, and Barbara Sutton collected her thoughts before getting off.
Walking into the main building, for the first time, she seriously observed the female employees around her and noticed that everyone was wearing watches, and the earrings and rings they wore dazzled beautifully, clearly worth a fortune.
They usually wore high heels, their backs straight, poised and confident.
The texture of their clothes was also particularly good, each figure appearing as if they practiced yoga.
The elevator doors opened.
Barbara Sutton entered with two other female employees from different departments.
They were holding Starbucks, their skin glowing white, wearing the same model of small green watches, with stylish hairstyles, looking slightly curled and exuding a feminine charm.
"Ada, you’re getting married, right?" one of the girls asked.
"Yes," the other girl replied with a happy and confident smile, "you must come then, we’ve booked Riventhal’s largest hotel, and the wedding photos are already taken."
Ding, the elevator stopped.
They walked out together, leaving behind a faint fragrance of perfume in the air.
Barbara Sutton glanced down at herself again, wearing flat canvas shoes, a discounted outfit worth dozens, a bag worth a hundred, even her hairband was two and a half.
Even if she couldn’t marry Special Assistant Morgan, she knew she should improve her own aura.
Barbara Sutton didn’t want to live a life like her mother’s, didn’t want to be ordinary and marry into ordinariness.
So she decided to go shopping after work and swipe the card Monica Usher left!
The Lamborghini drove out of the Emerald Cove mansion facing the morning glow, with Justin Kingston and Mia Lane sitting in the back seat, the mayor’s car coming from the opposite direction, the driver hitting the brakes.
The mayor’s wife quickly got out, happily walking towards them, taking a look inside the car, surprisingly not seeing her daughter’s figure!
"Oh?" She directed her gaze at Justin Kingston, "CEO Kingston, where’s Hailey?"
Justin Kingston was slightly taken aback, not expecting them to come.
"Didn’t you say Hailey was staying with you? Why isn’t she going to work together?" As she inquired, she glanced at the villa, could it be that she hadn’t gotten up?
At this moment, the mayor also got out of the car, standing outside the window of the Lamborghini, "Hello CEO Kingston, hello Mrs. Kingston."
"Hello there," Justin Kingston responded with a smile, opening the car door, and both he and Mia Lane stepped out.
"Hello Mrs. Kingston," the mayor’s wife looked at Mia Lane politely, she was truly a gentle and lovely beautiful woman. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novęlfire.net
"Hello, Madam Mayor," Mia Lane smiled and said, "Hailey has already gone to the company; we were a bit slow, and there’s no early meeting today, so... we slept in."
"..." The mayor’s wife understood, she didn’t doubt them, and smiled saying, "So that’s how it is, you’ve really been troubled these days."
"Not troubled, it’s as it should be."
The mayor put his arm around his wife’s shoulder, smiling and said to Justin Kingston, "CEO Kingston, work is important, let’s get together another day."
Then everyone got back into their cars, and soon the engines were started.
"Honey, shall we take these snacks to Hailey at the company?" The mayor’s wife asked from the front passenger seat, "It’s been so long since we’ve seen her, I really miss her."
"If you miss her, go see her; we’re in the same city, not far, right?" The mayor was in a good mood, driving towards the Kingston Group.
They only had one daughter, cherished from a young age.
The mayor parked the car under the Kingston Group building, having just undone his seatbelt, he had not yet gotten out of the car when they saw their daughter step out from a nearby white Maybach.
