An awkward expression instantly appeared on Park Anya's exquisite face!
She was such a proud woman!
Jordan was handsome, skilled in combat and saved her life on the battlefield. And as far as she knew, he rose from a small-time soldier to becoming a billionaire. He was such an outstanding man but Park Anya still didn't like him!
Squeezing out a polite smile, Park Anya tried her best to create the image of a gracious madam.
At night, she had to endure her husband's mediocrity and a passionless marriage. Why did she have to suffer all that? All because she wanted to obtain her family's recognition!
However, Park Anya had never been summoned by her family. She had never been to the great meeting!
Meanwhile, Lota from the Schmid family was also a woman. She looked like a little girl who had just reached adulthood, but she had already been there several times!
Park Anya felt that Lota's words were filled with hidden daggers. It was humiliating!
Nevertheless, Park Anya was a mature woman. She could handle all sorts of situations. She tried her best to appear indifferent. But as she reached up to brush her hair to the side, it seemed an action that was somewhat deliberate and unnecessary.
This was because her hair was tied back in a smooth bun. Not a single strand of hair strayed from it.
Park Anya said with a nonchalant expression, "Oh, I haven't been feeling well in the past few years so I try not to travel."
Park Anya's heart pounded as she said this.
This was because she didn't know where the great meetings were held. If any of them had been held in South Korea, her lie would be exposed!
Park Anya did not want to lose face in front of this 18-year-old girl.
Lota was innocent and naive. She didn't know that this woman, who was a lot older than her, was having such complicated thoughts.
Park Anya smiled. "Isn't this year's great meeting going to take place in less than a month? I'll definitely attend it this time. When the time comes, we can chat and drink together."
Actually, Park Anya was not sure if she would be able to attend the great meeting this year. But her family had finally acknowledged her outstanding performance this year. There was a chance they might relent and allow her to attend.
Park Anya vowed that no matter what, she would ask the family's permission to attend this meeting this year.
Even a little girl like Lota had attended the meeting before. Park Anya had always prided herself on being the most outstanding woman in the world. This was a disgrace to her reputation!
But the real reason why Lota could participate in the great meeting despite her young age was not that the Schmid family was very open-minded. It was because the entire Schmid family was controlled by the Handley family.
Shaun Handley liked Lota and she was very obedient. That was why he sent her to attend the meeting.
However, Lota just grinned and said, "1 won't be going this year."
Park Anya quickly asked, "Why?"
Lota couldn't tell her the real reason so she said, "I'm tired of going. It's meaningless. Whenever I go, I just end up being a messenger for my family, hehe."
Tired of going?
When Park Anya heard this, she felt like strangling Lota to death!
'I've worked so hard to prove to the family that I'm qualified to attend the meeting, but you claim that you're tired of it?'
