Chapter 203
Vacationing at the mountain retreat was supposed to be relaxing
Madeline often found herself in dilemmas, but luckily there were other activities to enjoy
After breakfast, Madeline asked Sherry to take her to the massage parlor.
Eugene and Gavin were left there.
The scenery along the way was beautiful
It looked like it snowed again last night. The snow in the field was exceptionally white, clean, and pure.
“Ms. Larson, Mr. Sharp and Mr. Newton are truly exceptional, Sherry smiled and said while leading the way. “They dote on you so much. You are truly blessed.
“Mr. Newton is one of our top members here, and Mr. Sharp is also a frequent VIP guest.
“You’re indeed very lucky”
Sherry sighed in admiration and added, “Having someone like them who care for you is really the happiest thing in the world.”
“Maybe,” Madeline sighed and murmured.
Madeline didn’t know what else to say.
She thought it was a mix of half happiness and half torment.
Madeline and Sherry walked one after the other to the massage parlor at the mountain retreat, which was a beautiful building
Sherry led Madeline to the elevator, showed her around to get familiar with the surroundings, and left.
A staff member had prepared a change of clothes for Madeline and led her to her private room
o the n
restroom.
While the staff was preparing the food. Madeline put her things down, changed clothes, and first went to
The restroom had a subtle aroma of incense.
Two women were touching up their makeup in front of the mirror.
One of the women, named Monica Williams, had a delicate appearance.
The other looked sweet and lovely, it was Vanessa.
Monica pursed her lips after applying lipstick and said. “They all say that Mr. Sharp is at the mountain retreat, but I haven’t seen him all day.”
Vanessa asked, “That’s strange. Could the information be wrong”
Monica exclaimed. “Oh well, I guess we came here for nothing.”
Monica frowned slightly. Her elegant black dress was flawlessly smooth after being ironed.
She put in all her effort to stand out at Eugene’s party today.
However, Monica didn’t expect that there would be no party at all.
Vanessa chuckled, her pretty face tinged with sarcasm. “I’ve seen the photos. He must be here. Just because he doesn’t show up, does the can’t look for him?” said Vanessa
“Getting into the party is easy. I’ll just have my friend take us in. Vanessa added.
Monica said, “But honestly, the real fun starts at night. What’s there to do during the day?
“Maybe the party won’t really get going until tonight.
Vanessa mapped her compact shut. Even though she was a socialite, she didn’t have any unnecessary connections
No partygoer would invite Vanessa to this type of event.
Vanessa and her friend, Monica, were both taken by Eugene’s stunning looks, which was why they

pass the time, and she needed to keep her flawless appearance intact.
Vanesa checked her eyeliner. Being here for a massage was just a way to pass
Vanessa and Monica chatted and laughed.
But when Vanessa turned around and met Madeline’s gaze, her face immediately darkened.
All of a sudden, Vanessa thought of the terrible past memories.
All her expectations and good mood for the day vanished in an instant.
Vanessa was fuming as she recalled that day when Madeline humiliated her by relying on a man, which led to her being scolded by her parents and Ruth when she got home.
Vaness wondered, ‘How could someone who relies s
lies on a man treat m
a man treat me so rudely?”
Vanessa gritted her teeth and said, “You again! This place is way beyond your reach!”
Monica asked in confusion, “Do you know each other?”
Vanessa scoffed and rolled her eyes, saying, “Just a lowly girl. Do you think I know her? What a joke!
“Her father used to come begging for money like a dog.
People like them a
aren’t even worthy to shine my shoes. How could I possibly know her?”
Vanessa was beaten up last time.
She was completely disgraced in the upper circles.
Fortunately, the people at the business gathering were respectful, which helped keep Vanessa’s incident from spreading too far in Japrium.
Moreover, Vanessa’s parents intervened and suppressed the news
Otherwise, Vanessa could never be able to find a proper match in her social circles.
Vanessa felt indignant, thinking Caleb was just someone with a criminal background after she was beaten.
Vanessa didn’t understand why her parents were so lenient and humble.
The more Vanessa thought about it, the more she felt her parents were just too cautious and took Caleb too seriously.
Ruth was born into a prestigious family and later married into the Larson family, which did not align with her background.
Ruth just saw Caleb as a somewhat cunning and lucky gang leader.
Vanessa believed that Ruth’s attitude indicated Caleb was not deserving of her respect.
Vanessa cast a c
ta clearly disdainful look at Madeline and said, “You really think cozying up to a wannabe rich guy makes yo
you a celebrity?
“Take a good look in the mirror and see your face!
“You can’t conceal that awful smell on you even if you stand here, country bumpkin!

Monica had realized that Vanessa disliked Madeline.
As Vanessa’s close friend. Monica crossed her arms with st
scorn and said, “Exactly, how dare a nobody like you upset Vanessa!!
You’ve got some nerve.
As Monica spoke, her red lips formed exaggerated expressions. She continued, “Don’t you know that Vanessa is the gem of Japrium, the apple of the Larson family’s eyet
*Her whole family dotes on her. Anyone who dares to oppose the Larson family is asking for trouble.”
Madeline didn’t expect Vanessa to be so furious.
Shooting Vanessa a disdainful glance, Madeline just looked away dismissively.
