Not Surprised
Lucille looked back.
Unexpectedly, she met Zoey’s gaze.
Besides that, there was also a 17- or 18–year–old girl who was staring at her fiercely.
It was Joanne Gilbert, Samuel’s younger sister.
Lucille was not surprised to see the two of them together.
Ever since the original host got engaged to Samuel, Joanne had never liked her. On the contrary, she had always been close to Zoey.
To be honest, Joanne was the one who had added fuel to the fire in regard to Samuel and Zoey getting together so shamelessly.
Since her marriage with Samuel had been canceled, she had nothing to do with him. She had no idea why Joanne, who had been spoiled since she was a child, was still so hostile toward her.
Joanne was probably crazy.
Of course, the best way to irritate those who didn’t like her was to ignore them and smile as they watched.
Therefore, Lucille smiled lightly. The moment she revealed her smile, her beauty was earth–shattering and soul–stirring. She was like a blooming flower. There was no end to her stunning looks.
Many of the young men who had been watching Lucille’s every move blushed instantly. They quickly lowered their heads to hide their embarrassment.
In the guest seats, Joanne was so angry that she almost flipped the table.
“I knew this b*tch was up to no good. Look at her, Zoey This b*tch is seducing all the men!” she thundered.
“I know, I know. Don’t be angry.” Jiang sat stopped Joanne and murmured, “Keep your voice down. Don’t make too much noise. This is the Collins family’s territory. If anything really happens, we won’t be able to handle the consequences.”
“I’m not scared! I can’t stand seeing that b*tch act so arrogant!” Joanne retorted.
She was fuming. Obviously, she was throwing another tantrum.
Lucille tried to persuade her gently, “Joanne, I know you’re angry, but think about it. Lucille is attached to the Collins family. I don’t have to tell you how powerful the Collins family is, do I? She’s their distinguished daughter–in–law now!”
“So what? That b*tch used to bully you, Zoey. Aren’t you jealous? Don’t you want to take revenge on her? Besides, Joseph hasn’t shown up yet. Who knows if she’ll actually become their daughter–in–law?” Joanne insisted.
“You’re right…” Lucille sighed and worriedly stated, “I also heard that the younger son of the Collins family, Austin, doesn’t seem to like Lucille being his sister–in–law. It seems that Lucille’s going to have it hard in the future.”
“Hmph. Joanne snorted.
She pursed her lips and said, “Let’s not talk about the future. I hope that she will have a hard time now!”
After that, Joanne seemed to think of something. Her eyes lit up, and then she suddenly stood up and
said, “I have an ideal”
The enemy of their enemy was their friend, after all.
Since Austin disliked Lucille so much, she might be able to rope him into their plans. Wouldn’t it be easier for her to teach Lucille a lesson in the future?
