Ebony Fox lifted her eyelids slightly. Her expression was completely blank, exuding a chilling detachment. "Do I know you?"
Annie's smug smile froze, and her face darkened.
Ebony Fox actually didn't recognize her?
She had previously instigated Kurt's mother to give Ebony Fox a hard time.
Mrs. Schwartz had definitely told Ebony Fox that she, Annie, was the chosen future daughter-in-law of the Schwartz family.
Any normal person would be curious about who her rival was.
She had assumed Ebony Fox would have thoroughly investigated her background by now.
Please.
She was her romantic rival, the one who was about to kick her to the curb and become Kurt's official girlfriend.
This tone...
How could there be absolutely zero emotional fluctuation?
Was she naturally this aloof, or was she just faking it?
Annie thought about it and decided the latter was far more likely.
She had heard that Ebony Fox used to be a special forces coach and had an incredibly strong ego.
With a scandal like this, her reputation was completely ruined.
Soon, she would be a social pariah, universally despised. Putting up a calm front was probably her only coping mechanism.
"Hah."
Annie's red lips curled into a sneer, a contemptuous laugh escaping her throat. "Since you don't remember, let me introduce myself."
"I'm Annie Ainsworth, the only daughter of the Ainsworth Group here in Eclara City."
If she had a tail, it would be pointing straight up at the sky as she boasted about her pedigree.
A top-tier wealthy family.
And the sole heiress, to boot.
Most people couldn't even dream of having a life this privileged.
Her worth went without saying.
"I am also the woman Monique has chosen to marry her son."
"With so many eyes on this, even having Juniper married to Shanley won't save you."
"Ebony Fox, you might look composed on the outside, but you must be terrified on the inside, right?"
"Are you finished now?"
Only after making sure Annie had nothing else to add did Ebony Fox put down her fork. Her icy gaze locked onto the other woman. "Then it's my turn to speak."
"First of all, I don't care whose pampered heiress you are, nor do I care if you're a stray cat or dog. It has absolutely nothing to do with me, and I have zero interest in you."
Annie: ?
Who was she calling a cat or a dog?!
"Secondly, Mrs. Schwartz did come to me and ask me to leave Kurt. Unfortunately for you, I refused."
"If his own mother can't do anything about me, what right do you—an unacknowledged, self-proclaimed 'future wife'—have to stand here and lecture me?"
"Your delusions are severe. I suggest you see a doctor."
Hearing this, the smile vanished from Annie's face. Furious, she snapped, "You—"
"Shut your mouth. I'm not finished." Ebony Fox cut her off coldly. "Furthermore, as for who is clinging to whom, I'll give you a clear answer right now."
