“Don’t worry about it, Aunty. But how did you know that car belonged to Mary Sullivan? Did you see Mary getting out of the car earlier?” Xyla Quest asked.“Yes…” Sharon Lindt answered truthfully.***After the meal, Sharon chatted with Xyla for a long while.They talked about fashion, hairstyles, makeup, and traveling. It seemed as if they had endless topics to talk about.Through conversing with Sharon, Xyla could deeply sense this woman’s vitality.Although Sharon was not very young, she was young in terms of her mentality. She played most games young people played. In fact, there were a lot of games she played that young people couldn’t even play well.It was as if an eighteen-year-old lived within Sharon Lindt’s heart. She always lived like she were a child.Xyla was particularly fond of Sharon because of that.After chatting for a long while, they finally parted with heavy hearts.A week later, Xyla had fully recovered.After leaving Quest Group in the evening, Xyla fix
Chapter 374
Mary Sullivan felt certain that Xyla Quest wouldn’t have an entrance ticket.Mary herself had put in a lot of effort to get this entrance ticket through many family connections.Since the Quest family was not as influential as the Sullivan family, how could the former possibly get one of the tickets?Mary crossed her arms over her chest and looked arrogantly at Xyla. “Are you here to seduce the wealthy folks? Let me guess who your target is. Hmm… Could it be the president? Are you here because you know the president would be here too?” She asked.Xyla found Mary’s behavior both annoying and funny.However, she was a little surprised by the information Mary offered that the president would be here.That explained why this auction was so difficult to get into. It turned out the president was the reason.Xyla raised her brows slightly and looked at Mary. “Do you think other people are like you?”“You… What do you mean?” Mary asked through gritted teeth.“I meat exactly what I sai

“I must say, girls these days… They really are shameless. Even when they are married, they still can’t keep their hands to themselves. They think about seducing capable men all day.”“Isn’t that true? Now, many girls rely on their good looks to do barbaric things like stealing other people’s husbands.”“I think the law isn’t stringent enough. The women who like seducing other people’s husbands should be punishable by death. I’d like to see if any of these seductive b*tches would still dare to do such a thing.”The group of rich housewives continued to discuss among themselves and didn’t seem to intent on leaving.Each one of them sounded sarcastic and mean.Xyla Quest knew that Mary Sullivan’s choice of topic was a key trigger for these women.That was why they had reacted so emotionally.What did women like them hate the most? It was probably the fact that their husbands looked for girls younger and prettier than them.Unfortunately, whatever they feared would usually happen.
Chapter 376
The noblewomen began a wave of discussion again. Their eyes were all overflowed with disgust and hatred. Mary Sullivan’s attitude and behaviour had triggered Xyla Quest. Xyla had the urge to slap her to the ground so hard that she could not even get up. However, Xyla managed to hold back. She gazed at Mary coldly and took out the invitation card from her bag quietly. Mary was shocked momentarily.So did everyone else…None of them thought that Xyla would receive an invitation card.Mary felt like she was being slapped by Xyla right on her face. How did Xyla get the invitation card?She had spent so much effort to get such a precious and rare invitation card. How could Xyla have it?Then, what was she doing just now? Was she dumb?“I thought you said that she doesn’t have an invitation? How come she has it?”“Why is this girl spreading rumors? Guess what she has said all this while can’t be trusted either, can it?”“So she’s insulting Xyla just because she has a chip on he

“Is this girl trying to cover up her weakness by insulting others? Ridiculous.”The noblewomen started whispering around them.Mary Sullivan felt as her face was being slapped by them several times without mercy.She was abashed and annoyed at the same time. She glared at Xyla Quest fiercely and yelled, “I might know nothing… but I’m still allowed to come, right? No one says that people who are ignorant about antiques cannot come, right? I’m here to pick up men just because I don’t know any better? Can’t it be anything else? Can’t I come to learn?”“Eat your own words, girl. When you questioned my lack of knowledge of antiques, you clearly said that people who don’t know anything about antiques are here for gold-digging. How come you’re allowed to learn when it comes to you? Mary Sullivan, you’re pretty double standard, eh?”Xyla was in no hurry to fight her back. She dropped her eyes on her right hand when she finished her sentence and flicked her nails. Mary was totally speech
Chapter 378
What was going on? How did Xyla Quest know the vice president’s wife?And…Why was the vice president’s wife treating Xyla so dearly as they were pretty close? Xyla had the vice president’s wife to back her up now, what about her?Xyla was still lost in bewilderment and consternation. Her gaze on the vice president’s wife was as numb as before. “What’s wrong? Don’t you remember me, Aunt Rebecca?” Rebecca Robin asked. Xyla shook her head. “No, of course I remember… I just didn’t expect that you... you’re… the vice president’s wife.”Rebecca laughed cheerfully. “Let’s not talk about that. My dear, what are those people talking about?”Before Xyla could even speak a word, the surrounding people began to describe the whole incident to Rebecca, fearing to lag behind the others.Needless to say, these people had to take Xyla’s side as they noticed that the vice president’s wife was supporting Xyla. The few noblewomen who went with the flow and scolded Xyla started to tremble and

“Ahh… You’re from the Sullivan family… No wonder you’re so uneducated.” Rebecca Robin insulted her mercilessly. Mary Sullivan was getting more and more embarrassed. “That girl’s from the Sullivan family? She must be Tom Sullivan’s sister, right? Tsk tsk tsk… Like brother, like sister.”“The Sullivans have a really terrible family culture. I think Tom Sullivan and her will destroy and ruin their whole family sooner or later.”“Well, I got it instantly when she said she’s the Sullivans. It’s not surprising, though… If someone like Tom Sullivan can exist, what’s so shocking about Mary Sullivan?”The noblewomen were gabbling and jabbering among each other, catering to Rebecca. They were constantly humiliating and verbally abusing Mary. The curves at the edges of Xyla Quest’s lips were getting gradually more obvious. She felt incessantly pleased. The words and comments that flowed through her ears were extremely soothing to her.On the other hand, Mary could feel that her self-est

As Xyla Quest was sitting with the vice president’s wife, she was the most prominent person in the room. The crowd’s attention would always fall on them from time to time.Since the auction had not started yet, those who were the upper echelons of the society tend to come over to greet Rebecca Robin by turns. In addition to responding to their greetings politely, Rebecca would also introduce Xyla to them. Some of these people were even the prestigious blue bloods among the rich and bigwigs.All of them were courteous to Xyla because of Rebecca’s presence as well as her own beauty. There were even some dignitaries who took the initiative to ask for Xyla’s WeChat.As a result, Xyla Quest could be said to be the illustrious and most celebrated in the crowd at the moment. There was not a single lady in the room who did not envy her, including Mary Sullivan. Mary was going to fly off the handle when she looked at how complacent Xyla was. Why was Xyla so lucky? She was lucky
