the bathroom to wash her face. She felt

After the teacher left, Bettany went to depressed when recalling Linda’s words. Just now, Linda said, “Olivia’s nobility is innate. If you want to learn from her, it’s useless to learn about external actions. You need to acquire a high intelligence and status like her.”

Bettany used her finger to write the word “Olivia” on the mirror and wiped it with

water.

She felt that Olivia was indeed amazing. At such a young age, she was already the head of the Smith family and was in charge of the Smith Hospital.

She had the power to influence or control a situation. Her single word could make a great impact.

Bettany raised her lips slightly. She wasn’t lacking in talent herself too. Rose had mentioned that she was extremely talented, and with some more time of learning, she could hold her own art exhibition.

Alexander had also brought up the question of whether she wanted to continue her education in the future or start her own business.

Bettany chose to pursue a business career.

She aspired to become a world–renowned artist, own her art gallery, and be a valuable partner to Alexander.

She believed that one day she would stand at the same level as Olivia.

She could achieve what Olivia could.

Even if she couldn’t match Olivia’s versatility, she aimed to have the power to influence the world, navigate the stock market, control real estate, and make her mark in the realms of art, economics, and even politics.

After tidying herself up, Bettany went downstairs to the living room.

Her back was straight, and she exuded grace and elegance.

In the living room, the First Elder came over and was talking to Zelen.

When he saw Bettany, he beckoned her to join them. “Come here.”

Bettany’s body stiffened as she felt a bit nervous at first. But she quickly recalled Olivia’s demeanor. She raised her eyebrows slightly, adopted an indifferent gaze, and descended the stairs leisurely.

Zelen, who was drinking water in the living room, was taken aback by her behavior and nearly choked on her drink.

She wiped her mouth and looked surprised. She turned around and asked the maid beside her in a low voice, “What’s wrong with Bettany? Her eyes seem distant, and she’s walking like an old man. Has her recent etiquette training been

in vain?”

The maid replied, “Miss Fulham has excelled in etiquette. Even the teacher hast praised her. However, the teacher also mentions that her gaze occasionally appears distant, saying it looks lifeless. Yet, she refuses to change it, thinking it’s a sign of nonchalance.”

The corner of Zelen’s mouth twitched as she was speechless.

She thought in mind, “This kind of dead look, akin to that of a blind person, how could it be considered nonchalant? Olivia was the epitome of nonchalance.” Thinking about Olivia, Zelen’s heart skipped a beat, she suddenly wondered if Bettany was trying to imitate her.

It was like trying to turn a dog into a tiger and the imitation was downright hilarious.

Olivia’s nonchalant attitude was backed by confidence, given her high social status. Many things couldn’t affect her, which made her seem somewhat condescending. It was impossible for others to learn, and if they tried, they’d end up looking foolish.

Bettany walked up to the First Elder and casually nodded at him before sitting down.

This nonchalant attitude made the First Elder a little dissatisfied and he frowned slightly.

However, it was not the time to be picky as he still had a more serious matter to attend.

First Elder questioned Bettany, “You lived with Olivia for a while. How is she? Does she have good interpersonal relationships?”

Bettany remained silent as she actually didn’t know that much.

She subconsciously lowered her head. She pinched her fingers and thought for a long time before saying, “I can’t say for sure, but she’s quite a kind person. Even when we weren’t close, she saved me twice and even cured my right hand. However, she’s a bit arrogant. She treats me with an average attitude. Her sincerity is lacking, and she comes across as somewhat insincere.”

“Insincere?” Zelen responded in surprise, “How did you come to that conclusion?”

Bettany frowned and replied, “Well, she promised Rose that she would look after me, but she didn’t put in much effort. Everyone in our circle knows I owe her a favor, and my teacher advised me to respect Olivia. However, she’s actually quite arrogant and fake. She appears to take care of me on the surface, but, in reality, she only gives me her old dresses. She pretends to ask me about my preferences at auctions but never actually buys anything for me.”

Zelen listened to all this with a heavy heart and couldn’t help but retort, “You’ve got some nerve. Why should she buy you dresses or bid on items for you at an auction? It’s like you’re taking all these for granted. Enough, go and do your own
