Prior to Tony and Myra’s wedding, Estelle, who was busy with her shootings overseas, rushed back. Not to mention, Tilly, who was on her annual holiday, canceled her holiday and came back as well. Immediately, Myra felt like Bradfort City had become lively again because it had been a long time since she met them.
However, Tony, on the other hand, valued Myra over his friends and didn’t bother about them, as he was too busy spending time with her. After some discussion, they all decided to meet each other at Zion Club, and the Messenger group chat that went quiet for a long time became active again.
Besides that, Myra also added Heather into the group. This was Heather’s first group chat on Messenger because she barely used it if it weren’t for Myra. The group got even more lively with her arrival while Tony warned the others as he figured that Heather was probably not used to lively chats like this. ‘You guys better behave well and don’t scare her away.’
Unexpectedly, Heather replied, ‘It’s fine.’
In the group, besides Myra and Tony, Estelle had also met Heather, and they had interacted a few times because Estelle and Myra were good friends after all.
However, since they were on bad terms, Estelle stopped chatting when she saw Heather entering the group chat. Upon noticing that Estelle went missing, Myra figured that it was due to the dispute that happened when they were young, and she really wanted to use this opportunity to get them back on good terms.
Hence, that was the reason she added Heather to the group chat. Since Heather hadn’t gotten the chance to socialize with people in Bradfort City, she accepted Myra’s invitation after pondering about it.
Myra had managed to get to know some close friends, and Heather had never met any friend of hers besides Tony. Besides, Heather wasn’t as possessive as she was back when they were young. Now, she was totally fine with Myra being nice to others. However, this was the exact reason Estelle disliked Heather.
Estelle and Myra were way closer after all, and what Heather did almost affected their friendship. If it weren’t for Heather leaving overseas, who knew how things would have developed?
During the night, Zion Club’s private room started becoming lively. Heather had already informed Myra earlier that she would be late due to overtime work.
Since they were all young and the purpose of this casual gathering was to catch up with each other, none of them really minded that she was late.
Those who were done with their work would gather there first to wait for the others, and there was really nothing to blame for being late. As the last person to arrive, Heather had a polite smile plastered on her face before she knocked on the door to the private room.
Upon hearing the knocking sound, Myra immediately knew that it was Heather because all of them entered the room by pushing the door open, and none of them would have opted to knock on the door.
At the same time, Estelle’s gaze darkened because she was still fearful of Heather even after not meeting each other for a long time. Urgh! I don’t want to face her at all. Right then, Shawn, who was sitting by the side, observed the micro-expression changes on Estelle’s face curiously before he got interested in the person who was about to enter.
“Come on in!” Myra exclaimed cheerfully.
The moment Heather entered the room, the atmosphere in the room got a little colder since she always gave off a cold impression.
“Hey, Myra.” Heather’s gaze was fixated on Myra, and she didn’t bother giving anyone else as much as a glance.
However, everyone’s gaze was fixated on Heather, while Estelle stared at Heather’s face with an annoyed look. She didn’t expect Heather to look way prettier than her now, and Heather’s presence really irked her.
On the other hand, Tilly was staring at Heather with curiosity-filled eyes because she had been hearing things about her from Myra for a while, and Heather really lived up to her expectations. As Heather’s beauty was really outstanding, all of the men’s gazes were fixated on her, especially Elliot.
When Shawn noticed the annoyance and jealousy toward Heather in Estelle’s eyes, he smiled cunningly before guessing their relationship. I didn’t expect Heather to affect Estelle like this.
At this moment, Heather turned toward Tony and gave him a polite smile before greeting, “Hello, Mr. Hart.”
Still, what Estelle didn’t expect was Heather’s gaze glancing past her because she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable by Heather’s gaze despite it being a swift glance.
“It’s been a long time since I met you, Estelle. You’ve gotten even prettier now.” Heather took the initiative to greet Estelle. All along, Heather had been reflecting on the dirty tricks she pulled on Estella because of Matthias, and Myra had already informed her earlier that Estelle would join the gathering this time as well. Since Estelle was Myra’s best friend, Heather figured that she should take the initiative to talk to her in an effort to fix their friendship after what happened in the past.
However, Estelle’s heart dropped when she received Heather’s compliment because she couldn’t help but feel like she was indirectly making fun of her. Nevertheless, she couldn’t just ignore Heather, as that would be rude.
Right then, Estelle, who was always a sociable person, suddenly got nervous and replied awkwardly, “It’s been a while. You look prettier, though.” Upon hearing Estelle’s reply, Shawn felt like he was about to die from withholding his laughter.
So, there’s actually someone in this world that can intimidate Estelle, huh? I’m sure that she’s actually afraid of Heather but still held onto her grudges.
Shawn couldn’t help but give Heather a few more glances as he wondered what this mysterious woman did to Estelle, to the point where Estelle was traumatized.
