Chapter 68 You Again
“When has Emmeline purchased a sports car?”
“Are you sure she has enough to afford one? Maybe he was one of the men trying to hit on her at the bar!”
“Huh? Are you indicating it’s real when others mentioned she works as an escort in the bar?”
As soon as Emmeline alighted from the car, her peers started whispering the rumors they heard about her.
Emmeline had to bear the consequences of her action for not carrying herself in an elegant manner in front of others.
She dismissed them and told herself they were merely jealous of her look as well as the fact she had just made her way out of a sports car.
“Isn’t this Ms. Smith? Have you gotten yourself another boyfriend? Where was the one a few days ago?”
Emmeline didn’t even have to turn around to figure out the identity of the woman behind her. She was certain it was none other than Sharon. After all, Sharon was the only one who would spread all sorts of rumors about her.
“Is that any of your business?” Emmeline wasn’t in the mood to engage in a conversation with Sharon at all.
“Of course! What if you’re infected with some sort of disease after getting yourself one after another significant half in such a short time? As one of your best friends, it’s my duty to make sure you’re aware of the consequences of your actions!”
Sharon’s expression implied otherwise when she made it sound as if she genuinely cared about Emmeline. Truth be told, she had always thought Emmeline was a good-for-nothing.
Apart from looking pretty, nothing else about Emmeline stands out. All she does is hit on different men from time to time. How is that any different from an escort in the club?
“Why don’t you do yourself a favor and keep an eye on Jory instead? Who knows if you’re going to get infected ahead of me! He seemed to be having quite a lot of fun with another woman in the club a few days ago! If you’re free, it’s time for you to drop by the hospital for a series of checkups to make sure you’re doing fine!”
“Y-You must be making something up to drive us apart!” Sharon turned around to confront Jory. “Tell me she’s lying!”
The face of the man next to Sharon turned pale and haggard when he heard Emmeline. Consequently, Jory stammered, “I-It’s nothing more than a lie!”
“Shall I show you the video I have with me? Someone sent me the footage of him having a lot of fun with her!” When he heard Emmeline’s suggestion, he brought Sharon away with him while explaining, “Darling, she’s just making things up!”
Emmeline then said to Jonathan, “Sharon enjoys spreading all sorts of rumors about me because the man next to her used to have a thing for me. It doesn’t really matter. Let’s go.”
Jonathan had no intention to poke his nose into their business and remained silent throughout the confrontation.
A few minutes later, they made it to Supreme VIP Room with lavish decorations that could easily accommodate more than twenty people.
Apart from the chandelier in the middle of the room, there were a few diamond-etched mics, marble top tables, and roses everywhere.
Upon another glimpse, she noticed the roses were arranged to spell a person’s name—Nana.
