The True Heiress's Return novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115
The group fell silent, and the implications of Berry’s words were unmistakable.
Xanthe exploded, ready to rush over and confront Berry if it weren’t for Shakira holding her back.
“Berry, can’t you just keep quiet for once?”
“Well, I’m just telling the truth.”
Xanthe cut in, “Some people talk a big game about being noble, but deep down, they all want to be Mr. Lopez’s personal servant. Unfortunately, Mr. Lopez doesn’t even look at them!”
Berry clenched her fists and glared back fiercely.
Xanthe, having gained the upper hand, stuck out her tongue at her and sat back down.
Seeing that Shakira was unfazed, Xanthe became even more confident, “Berry’s really sour. By the time we get there, she’ll probably be so jealous she can’t sleep for a month!” Then, out of curiosity, she whispered, “Shakira, is your room big?”
Shakira thought for a moment and said, “I don’t have my own room.”
Xanthe nodded and said matter-of-factly, “You live with Mr. Lopez, huh? That’s settled then. Berry’s probably going to be jealous enough not to sleep for this whole month.”
Shakira was speechless.
She had reason to suspect that Xanthe had set up surveillance in the villa; otherwise, how could she be so accurate.
Ten minutes later, the minibus finally drove into the Lopez family’s territory, slowly approaching the building complex. Inside the vehicle, everyone was stunned by the several villas arranged in a picturesque manner, and in the distance, they could vaguely see servants and bodyguards dressed in uniforms lined up in rows, their jaws nearly dropping. “This…. this is the Lopez family? Are you sure it’s not a villa community or a resort?”
“So many servants could practically form a small company! Just their monthly wages would be enough for me to live my whole life!”
“Wow, look at this garden! It’s like a resort. Honestly, just the maintenance costs would let us live for eight hundred years!” “I finally understand-we’re just here to make up the numbers in this world…”
Even Xanthe, who prided herself on being worldly, felt her worldview being shaken.
“Wow, with so many places to stay, will we even be able to explore them all??”
Meanwhile, Berry remained silent, her eyes reflecting the boundless luxury that symbolized unattainable power and wealth. Her heart raced faster and faster. ‘Everything here belongs to Walter alone. Once I become the mistress of the Lopez family, all of this-everything that countless women dream of and can never reach-will all be mine! Gradually, her initial shock transformed into greed and a dominating determination to possess it all.
Shakira, on the other hand, couldn’t help but feel a twitch in her eyelids. ‘Is there some task or activity today? Why did Levi bring so many people out?’ Just as she was thinking, the minibus came to a stop.
Everyone got out of the vehicle, still in shock and unable to regain their composure.
Levi, smiling brightly, led the servants forward and said in unison, their voices resonating throughout the estate, “Welcome, Ms. Nelson, home-”

Shakira stared in disbelief, slapping her face in shock.
‘Shakira works as a maid in the Lopez family? This situation looks more like that of a mistress?!’
The first to react was Xanthe. “Wow! Shakira, the way you’re welcomed home is amazing!”

Hearing this, Levi felt very assured and smiled kindly, “Everyone, please come inside; it’s already dinner time. What would you like to eat? Our kitchen can make anything.”
Xanthe blurted out, “Really anything? Suddenly I want to cat Wagyu and king crab!”
“Sure, we’ll arrange that for Ms. Sullivan.”
Xanthe was surprised, “Wow, you know me?”
Levi smiled, “It’s Ms. Nelson’s first time bringing classmates over so I had to do my homework. Ms. Sullivan likes seafood; this is classmate Lin, right? From Spicy Pepper City, likes strong flavors, and this is classmate Yang, who needs light meals due to a stomach issue…” Levi accurately mentioned several classmates!
“This is impressive! Is this how top-notch families entertain guests? It’s unbelievably considerate!”
“The key is not just being thoughtful to guests, but especially to Shakira-what kind of treatment does a maid get when bringing friends home?”
“Exactly! This is more attention than we received at the three other places we visited!”
Someone even accidentally voiced their thoughts, “Is Shakira really a maid here, not the mistress?”
Xanthe was happier than Shakira, the actual party involved, “Not bad, not bad! You’re much smarter than Berry.”
Berry’s face darkened with jealousy, nearly contorted.
Similarly, Yvette, who had been waiting to see Shakira embarrass herself, also looked terrible. She was still clinging to her last hope, ‘This must be a ruse; Shakira must have colluded with these servants to put on a show for us!’
Shakira helplessly facepalmed. “Let’s finish the task first.”
Levi said, “Everything has been arranged according to Ms. Nelson’s instructions.”
Hearing this, Shakira felt a little more at ease. However, when they arrived at the guest room where she originally stayed, looking at the dazzling array of unfamiliar clothes in the room, Shakira was stunned… ‘Wait, where did all these come from? Is it Mitchell? Or Walter?? They won’t deduct from my wages again, will they?!!”‘
“Wow, Shakira, your wardrobe is twice the size of Yvette’s!”
“And they’re all classic pieces from major luxury brands, with many high-end collections…”
“The key is, all these clothes still have tags on them-they’ve never been worn, and they’re all this year’s new arrivals!”
“LK! There’s an entire cabinet full of LK!! With this quantity, it’s almost seventy to eighty percent of LK’s collection. There can’t be that much stock in LK stores worldwide!”
“Mr. Lopez is such a perfect boyfriend; Shakira, you’re so lucky!!
“No wonder you don’t return to the Nelson family. What’s there to go back to? Isn’t Mr. Lopez’s place much better?!”
Yvette was astonished.
Yvette, who was completely outdone, felt her eyes redden with anger without realizing it. Those opportunistic wallflowers

and deadbeats! ‘A bunchof-fools, can’t they tell these are all staged photos? Isn’t it obvious they’re fake? Shakira’s reputation is in tatters; everyone in Crescentville knows about her troubles in Belaris! Walter can actually look up to her and treat her so well? No normal man would accept such an insult!’
Yvette spoke softly, “These aren’t the clothes you usually wear, are they, Shakira? We’re here to do charity, not to seek attention. Isn’t this a bit too deliberate?”
Xanthe immediately mocked, “Oh, just now I didn’t know who was still showing off, and now they find out they can’t compete and start to criticize others? How shameless!”
Yvette secretly clenched her fists.
Shakira glanced at her and then looked at Levi.
Levi quickly said, “Ms. Nelson’s old clothes have been brought over.” He pulled out a rectangular basket from the corner, filled with ordinary, unremarkable clothes. Among the luxury items, they indeed seemed a bit shabby.
Yvette took a look; they were indeed clothes that Shakira had worn before in the Nelson family. Watching Shakira pack up the clothes with a grim expression, Yvette finally managed a slight smile. ‘Once I get these clothes, Shakira, oh Shakira, you won’t be able to show off anymore!’
Just then, someone exclaimed, “Everyone, quick, look at the forum! Shakira, you’re trending again!”
