Cordelia’s ears perked up, and her guard was immediately up as well. She looked back and saw a woman who was dressed with thick makeup smile flirtatiously at Marcus. Her glass shook slightly in her hand, and when she went closer to Marcus, she pulled the slit of her dress to show her fair legs.
Cordelia suddenly found the voice to be familiar.
“Giselle?” She paused. It seemed that Yelena brought along her best friend wherever she went.
When they were in school last time, Giselle Lawler would often bully Cordelia with Yelena. The school later dismissed her due to her poor grades and frequent reports of being found smoking in clubs.
The comments about Giselle in the high society of Jangasas were not great either. She was only able to act brazenly because of Yelena’s support.
Cordelia was annoyed. She forgot about networking with her clients and walked briskly to Marcus in her heels.
“Handsome, isn’t it boring to drink alone?” Giselle approached Marcus swaying her hips. “Why don’t we—”
“Why don’t the two of us have a drink?” A cold voice rang suddenly.
Giselle was shocked, looking up to meet Cordelia’s sharp eyes.
Marcus was also stunned before he smiled in amusement. Cordelia put him behind her, met Giselle’s provocative gaze, and scoffed, “Why? Don’t you know me anymore? You snatched my homework to copy it when we were in school, and now you want to snatch my man?”
“Well, who else if it isn’t Cordelia!” Giselle chuckled. “What are you saying? I want to get to know this handsome man, and I’m snatching your man? You weren’t standing here just now. How would I know of your relationship?”
