Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 528

Dorothy chuckled, feigning a block, "Come on, Judie, don't underestimate her. Who knows, she might have snagged herself a real catch, a millionaire perhaps. And someone might just come to back her up in a bit."

"Dorothy, you're literally Myers family royalty! You're not really scared of her, are you? I mean, you said it yourself, she's an orphan. Even if she does land some rich guy, do you really think they'd bring her home?"

Judie Harvey scoffed with disdain, "Anyone invited by Ms. Taylor to this dinner party is from a well-matched family. At best, they'd just toy with her. They wouldn't seriously risk their reputation over some scandalous affair, would they?"

The younger brother who had tried to strike up a conversation earlier couldn't stand it anymore and started to defend her, "No, actually, she was just with Ms. Taylor..."

"Enough,"

People of this social circle simply didn't regard common entertainers highly, no matter how famous or successful they were. In the end, wasn't it all about the money?

Dorothy cut him off, "I know you're going to say she knows Ms. Taylor..."

"What?" Judie suddenly panicked. "She knows Ms. Taylor? Why didn't you say so earlier..."

"It's not what you think."

Dorothy pretended to clarify but was actually stirring the pot, "She just designed some clothes for Ms. Taylor, that's all. She's probably just here to deliver them. And you know, she's been divorced. Dressing all fancy now, probably trying to land a second husband. Ms. Taylor surely wouldn't stick her neck out for a small-time designer. But if you're scared of her, we don't have to bother..."

Judie, probably spoiled rotten at home, immediately felt emboldened again and sneered, "A divorced woman? Who here do you think she could possibly match?"

The brother frowned, "Why do you have to talk like that?"

"It's okay."
