Zenaida contorted a pleasing smirk on the corner of her lips. She is delighted to see this mistress wearing a service crew uniform tonight.

  "Peasants will remain forever a peasant. And you belong to peasant man like you, not with Vince!" However, the smile on her face disappeared.

  Zenaida frowned when Hailey scoffs at her. She really hated how Vincent's mistress has a thick face to fight back at her.

  "Why do you hate so much where you came from, Zenaida?" Hailey queried the woman.

  "Excuse me?" This mistress is something!?Zenaida casts a stern look at her.

  "You don't need to look down on the people that are lower than you. Ah. That's not the correct phrase. You need not be superior above others just to make yourself look greater than them."

  "And what are you implying? What does a peasant like you know about superiority? Look at yourself! Vincent probably has now woken up from his craziness and realized you are not worth keeping as a woman that he is now ashamed to introduce you as his girlfriend. And because you are so ambitious to be in the same place as Vincent. You came to this gathering as a waitress. What a shame!"

  Upon hearing this, Hailey burst out laughing, and it catches the attention of other people on that side of the reception. From the soft lights surrounding them, they recognized Zenaida in a dazzling golden yellow gown and Vincent's girlfriend in a waitress uniform.

  At first glance, it was easy to guess that there was a clash between them. And the people near them anticipated what would happen next.

  Soon after, Hailey settled down from laughing.?She pursed her lips and uttered, "Don't be so stupid. Vincent and I had a silent war because I turned down his invitation to be his date tonight. Do you want to know the reason?"

  "And why would I be interested to hear it?" Zenaida scoffs, pushing her left brow?upward.

  "You should be because it is out of my pity for you." Hailey is looking at Zenaida?downward.

  "Excuse me? You pitied me?" This time, it was Zenaida who laughed?loudly. "Stop your exaggeration,?bitch!"

  "Do I? Because what I know, it isn't me who is trying hard to get Vince's attention or other?people. Wearing this several thousand US?dollars handmade gown won't make you beautiful when your heart is full of envy and resentment toward others," said Hailey meaningfully, gesturing her hand to the?gown.

  "Says, who? You are?just?a mistress!" Zenaida pursed her lips in annoyance. She is about to open her mouth again,

  but Hailey raises her hand to stop her.

  She said, "What will happen to you if I showed up wearing a contoured dress by a famous designer? You surely are out of the place, and people would only have their attention on me." Hailey makes sure that she sounds boastful to annoy Zenaida. Ridiculing her is the best way to anger her at the same time, leaving her upset. "I'm only wearing a waitress uniform, but I look more elegant than you."

  "Hah! Who is dreaming now?" I really, really wanted to slap this mistress! Zenaida was on the verge of her control. No matter what insults, she's throwing at Hailey. The girl never backs down! Instead, she felt criticized. Her jaw tightens, and she grits her teeth. It annoys her that this mistress just easily lambasted her without restraint. "I do admire how thick your face is."

  "Is it me? Or you?" Hailey countered.

  "Shut up, bitch!" Zenaida snaps. It irritates her how Hailey keeps oppressing her, and she had no chance to retort.

  "Do you think that once Vince dumped me, he would run toward your arms and choose you as your sister's replacement? Come on! Stop dreaming! Vince is not stupid to court you next." Hailey tears her lips with a mocking smile.?But in the back of her head express out…… 'Besides, I would not allow you! You are not deserving of either of your sisters to become Vincent's wife!'

  "Mistresses these days are truly the ones who are braver and shamelessly act like the original wife! But whatever you do, Eva would never divorce Vincent, so stop dreaming yourself!" Zenaida struggled to crush Hailey's arrogance, and it pissed her even more!

  "Oh. Isn't Vince and Eva's marriage automatically dissolved a year ago?" She reminded Zenaida.

  "What are you talking about? What do you know about the law? One month before their marriage turned two years, Vince and Eva met in New York. It means they are still husband and wife!"

  "Oh. Then too bad for you. Vince remains married to your sister. You still had no chance!" Hailey clicks her tongue to tease Zenaida. She watched how she explodes in anger as her face is like bitten red now.

  Zenaida clenched both fists on her side. She wanted to pull Hailey's hair. However, she knew better not to expose her feelings for her brother-in-law. If she did that, everyone who heard Hailey would think that what she said was true, that she had fantasies for Vince!

  "Why would I worry about that? You should worry yourself! Who knows, that one day, Vince's first love came back. Do you know that Vince is keeping a picture of his first love on his phone? I heard he often looked at it. Such friendly advice? Don't be overly arrogant that you will remain as Vince's mistress! Why don't you stick to being a waitress? You are an expert in seducing men, anyway. Why don't you start looking for, new lover? Do you like married men? There's a lot of older men who are glad to be your sugar daddy!"

  Hailey laughs, shaking her head in amazement. Zenaida would try everything to disheartened her. Too bad no one knows that her relationship with Vince is only fake. On the one hand, a pinch of pain crept toward her heart. Of course, she knew that Vince has someone he likes, the reason he refused to marry Eva. And all the sweetness Vince shows to her is part of their agreement.

  "Nice try, sister. But too bad.?I don't feel troubled about it at all.?I am Vince's new love. Just accept it." Not feeling trouble? What a liar! Hailey laughs to herself in silence. But the truth is, Zenaida's words are partly hurtful. "Besides, what is wrong with being a waitress? It was a decent job, the same as a secretary job."

  "And what do you mean by that?" Zenaida scowled at Hailey. This girl would still not give up!?Dammit!

  "Like what I mentioned earlier, you shouldn't feel ashamed of where you came from."

  "I am a Lan! And I never feel ashamed of it!"

  "Is that so? And then why do you hold a grudge against people who have ordinary status in society? Have you forgotten what kind of job your mother had before??It is decent work for me, and I would never look down on her."

  "And what do you care? You know nothing about us!"

  "And you know nothing about me, too!" Hailey blurts out. "So why judge the other people or me??You know what? You should be proud that even your mother is just your father's secretary, they fell in love with each other, and you are the fruit of their love."

  "Don't be concerned about my family!" Zenaida was infuriated that Vincent's mistress is well-informed about her mother and father's love story. That is true. But she understood that Hailey is implying her out as a peasant daughter. But her father is from a Lan Household that was once a powerful family in High Society! How dare she criticize me this way! "You really have guts because my brother-in-law had your backing!"

  "Is that so?" Hailey sneers at Zenaida. She added, "Your brother-in-law? Then where is your sister, Zenaida?"

  "And why would I tell you?"

  Hailey steps closer at her and whispers, "I know you are keeping your sister's whereabouts. I wonder what Vince would do once he knew the truth."

  "I didn't! And I have no idea what you are talking about!"

  "Really? Well, you can deny it all your life. But unfortunately, you can't keep a secret that Eva is with another man until now."

  Hailey steps back to see what would be her reaction. And Hailey was right. Zenaida's face paled like a ghost. Now that she confirmed it. She didn't need to waste her time with her.

  She leaned over and whispered, "You do know that the court would favor Vince if the evidence were presented. However, you would not let this kind of scandal for the family Land to face, right? Headlines…… Eva Lan was sentenced to several years of imprisonment.?File case? Adultery! Ah, P Country would love to see this kind of drama.?And it will be a long drama because Eva's boyfriend didn't know she is married, right?"

  Hailey tears her lips with a smirk across her face. She walks past Zenaida. She intentionally bumped into her shoulder as she said, "I'm watching you, sister."

  Zenaida was left in a trance. Her mouth remains open from shock. She reached for her right hand when it began shaking. She squeezes it to calm down. And inside her head is one question, 'How did she know about it!?'
