Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 477

"People talk. If I took every rumor seriously, I'd have no time to eat or sleep. That's the life of us rich and famous ladies. Everyone brags and gossips about us, and wishes their lives are somehow connected with us. How many of them do you think are telling the truth?"

Jessica said. Then she thought, 'Humph! Daisy, you want to anger me? In your dreams! It might be a good plan, but I'm not as stupid as Mary, who gets irritated easily by a few words of yours.'

"I'm not from a wealthy family, maybe I was wrong, but there's no smoke without fire. Sometimes the truth emerges after someone stirs things up. Isn't that the favorite trick of the so-called upper-class?"

Daisy's eyelids drooped, as if she was staring at the coffee mug, but she stole a glance at those hostile women every now and then.

"You seem to have a problem with the upper-class. Do you think it is appropriate to hate rich people so much, as the wife of the CEO of FX International Group?" Coco held Daisy responsible for her being shut out of entertainment business by Edward, because she thought if Daisy hadn't showed up in Edward's life, he wouldn't have dumped her cousin Jessica, and things would have been different. She would have remained a superstar in the spotlight.

"I have never hated rich people. Being rich or poor depends on your attitude, that is, how much you think is enough. I never force myself to work for money. I'm contented with a comfortable, happy life. By the way, we've never met. Do you think it is appropriate to talk with me in that tone?"

Daisy didn't recall she had offended this pretty woman.

"Gee, how embarrassing! You don't even recognize Coco, an international superstar. What a hillbilly! Don't ever tell anyone you're an Ouyang. You're a shame to that name." Now that other people were here, Mary wasn't afraid of Daisy anymore. She sneered at her and started to humiliate her as much as she could.

"Why should I know her? I'm not a teenager who spends every waking hour keeping up with her favorite stars. And I'm not a silly girl chasing meaningless things. As for the name Ouyang, I wish it had nothing to do with my life. So stop pretending it is an honorable name, you make me want to puke."

Daisy didn't care if her family background was revealed. She wasn't worried about what kind of verbal attack might come at her next. No one had ever scared her in her entire life. At this moment she faced her enemies bravely.

"Interesting. Daisy, as I recall I asked you last time whether you knew Mary or not, you said no. But from the current situation, apparently you know each other. Any explanations?"

Jessica was intrigued by the topic and laughed. She forgot all about the problems her company faced.

"I don't know her, but she is dying to get into my life. What can I do? Besides, it is my private life, why should I tell you about it?" Daisy seldom smiled, but today a faint smile lingered on her mouth all the time. She remained calm, making it impossible to figure out what she was thinking or how she was feeling.

"That's a load of crap! Since when did I try to do anything regarding you? I would not see you again if you didn't try to ruin my parents' relationship and break up my family!" Mary thought she would get the upper hand with Jessica and Coco on her side. She was trying everything to get back at Daisy for the embarrassing situation she had put her in just now.

"Jessica, it's getting more and more interesting, isn't it? It turns out Colonel Ouyang likes being a home wrecker. What a special hobby! I wonder why she fell in love with Mr. Ouyang instead of Edward who is handsome and distinguished. This is the most hilarious joke I've heard this year."

Humph! Daisy had said she didn't know Coco, who had been a household name in the city. As a person who was used to flattery and fame, naturally Coco couldn't tolerate such contempt. In addition, both she and Daisy had that aloof bearing, but Edward had fallen in love with Daisy instead of her and never paid any attention to her, which deepened her resentment toward Daisy.

"Since you think it's a joke, I will just laugh at it and will overlook the fact that you just insulted my sister," A male voice said, disturbing everyone. He handily disrupted their scheming. They all looked up to find a handsome lively young man smiling mischievously. He was standing right next to them.
