Chapter 667 Not The Only One Jealous
Yara dwelled on the matter as she knocked back more alcohol.
I’m the best-dressed person at this charity event, yet I still lost to Natalie, who’s just in a plain business suit! Everyone’s talking about her, while I’m just an accessory that no one cares about! How unfair!
Flushed scarlet with indignance, Yara sent a text message to Martin.
I want you to make sure that everything goes to plan tonight!
Soon, she received a message that read: Of course.
A malicious smirk crept up Yara’s face as she quashed the churning hatred and jealousy within her.
Diane and Natalie talked about Nikolai’s health and some Irethiel politics before finally returning to the main event.
The crowd swiveled to look at them when they made their entrance, and Natalie naturally became the center of attention for being with Diane.
Yara was not the only one jealous of Natalie’s popularity, it seemed, as the princess of the Lancaster family, Jacqueline Lancaster, was seen gripping her wine glass so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
“She’s hideous! Who is she?” Jacqueline scowled in distaste.
“Jacqueline, she probably has an influential background. It’s best that you don’t make such rude comments,” Cassidy cautioned. “Plus, look at her interaction with Lady Diane. She’s not even trying to get close to Lady Diane! On the contrary, it seems like Lady Diane genuinely likes her and wants to keep her around.”
Cassidy was the illegitimate child of the Dawson family and also Jacqueline’s friend.
Jacqueline, on the other hand, was the youngest daughter of the Lancaster family.
Both ladies had grown up in prominent families and had learned to read the room as a result. However, their personalities were on two ends of the spectrum.
“Cassie, with so many eyes on her, it’s only natural that she won’t go overboard! But how would you know what she did in the lounge when no one was watching them?”
