Chris spotted Beatrice, too, and leaned in to whisper, “Serena, she’s got her own company now and is out there looking fo partners. Her first deal is with the Ellington family.”
Serena was genuinely surprised. She thought, ‘Beatrice, who has spent half her life living in luxury, would actually step ou and start a company?
“There is only one explanation. Beatrice is still after the Ashford family fortune, trying to get her hands on Nolan’s assets.
‘If she couldn’t pull it off herself, then the guy she had an affair with back then would definitely show up to help her make happen.‘
Serena had stopped getting involved with the Ashford family’s affairs. Dylan was aware of some of the truth.
Now, she could just enjoy the drama as a spectator.
“Serena, the beef is ready. Have some more,” Chris said, picking up a piece and putting it on her plate.
Serena kept her head down and quietly ate.
Beatrice watched as Serena was surrounded by young, good–looking guys, and even Eric seemed to have a thing for her.
Seeing the two of them chatting so happily made Beatrice furious.
‘Why does Eliana have to marry some old guy, while Dylan gets to be with Stella?‘ Beatrice thought.
“Stella, no matter what, I’m still your elder. Aren’t you even going to say hello when you see me?” Beatrice called out.
Beatrice cared a lot about appearances, and her sudden outburst caught Serena off guard.
Serena let out a cold laugh. “Beatrice, you’re the one who tried to steal my son. I didn’t even have you thrown in jail, and no you expect me to greet you?
“Are you hoping I’ll spill all your dirty secrets right here in public?”
Serena’s offhand tone made Beatrice recall that whole mess.
Beatrice was seething, clenching her jaw. ‘Why is she airing this dirty laundry in front of everyone?‘ She thought angrily.
“That’s nonsense. Stop spreading lies, If you keep accusing me, I’ll take you to court for defamation,” Beatrice snapped.
Serena kept her head down, picked up her water, and took a sip.
Then she said, “Beatrice, I warned you before. Don’t mess with me. If you keep coming at me. I’ll spill all your secrets for everyone to see.
“If you’re asking for trouble, I’ll make sure you get it.” Serena wasn’t going to show her any mercy.
Serena thought, ‘Beatrice never stops wanting me dead.
I’d been busy running my company lately, barely showing up anywhere. She simply hadn’t gotten the opportunity yet.
Yvonne was at a loss for words.

She was about to explode, but seeing Naomi’s stunned expression across the table, she gritted her teeth and held herself back.
She couldn’t let herself lose face here, so she forced a smile and said, “Naomi, don’t mind her. This woman and I have bad blood. Every time she sees me, she just has to stir up trouble.
“She can’t keep her hands off men, always flirting with anyone she meets. As her elder, I really should say something—”
“Beatrice!” Before she could finish her sentence, a stunning woman burst in through the doorway.
Beatrice had just caught a glimpse of who it was when her hair was suddenly yanked.
“Ah! Let go! What are you doing?” Beatrice howled in agony, her voice echoing through the room.
Lacey yelled, “Beatrice, you two–faced homewrecker! How dare you talk down to Stella? Ever since she dumped your son, her life’s only gotten better.
“You just can’t stand to see anyone else happy, can you? You’ve been rotten to the core your whole damn life!”
“Seriously, how low can you go? What gives you the right to say anything about her? That girl is pure kindness. She took care of your crippled son and helped the Ashford family get everything back.
“You ungrateful old witch, not only do you bite the hand that feeds you, but you also try to drag her name through the mud. Have you ever stopped to think just how pathetic you are?
“You old bag, today I’m gonna beat the crap out of you! You went and had a daughter with my husband, and every month he gives your kid 15 thousand for living expenses, and you get 30 thousand yourself!
“How shameless can you get? Just two years after you married in, you were already seducing my husband. Did you really think I was some pushover?”
