Chapter 8: You Are Jealous of Me
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When I came back from a walk at night, the receptionist at the apartment told me that I had a letter.
But I’ve only moved here for two days. How could anyone know me?
The attendant smiled and explained to me, “The gentleman said that this letter was for a young lady with long golden curls and two young sisters. That’s why I thought of you.”
I nodded and opened the letter to find that it was from Peter.
He invited me to go to 66 Wu Tong Road tomorrow. There would be a romantic date waiting for me.
How boring. Of course, I wouldn’t bother with this pervert. I threw the letter into the trash can and told the attendant, “In the future, if this man comes to find me, please ignore him. Understood?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
As we got into the elevator, I kept worrying about running into Alpha. His flirtatious behavior the night before had caused me to feel a strange emotion. I felt like I should try to stay away from him for the safety of my two precious daughters.
Fortunately, I didn’t see him for the entire day. I assumed that the heir of the European Financial Group had a lot of work to do. But when I opened the door, I heard the melodious piano sound coming from behind the closed door opposite.
“Mommy, who’s playing the piano?”
Winnie looked up at me and asked since she had always been interested in musical instruments.
I was afraid that the two of them got involved with Alpha, so I deliberately said, “There is a very strange and bad man living in the house next door. Do not provoke him, understand?”
Seeing the two kids nod obediently, I felt slightly relieved.
My Nicole and Winnie had always been smart. Nicole had learned computer skills from Galen and was a top hacker at such a young age.
Winnie, on the other hand, had a quiet and steady personality and a strong learning ability. She had already self-learned to the level of a university course, but because she was the youngest and was born with congenital defects, her body had not been well since she was young. She needed her siblings to donate their bone marrow to treat her.
Now, I only hope to find my son early so that the four of us can reunite and we can then focus on treating Winnie’s body defects.
The next day, my father called again. He sounded like he was sitting on a high horse. “I can give you this year’s dividend for your mother’s inheritance, but the company must make it up to Shana. I’ll give you 10 percent of the dividend every year from now on.”
“Why should my mother’s company be used as a dowry for the daughter of a mistress? I don’t lack money. I won’t leave my mother’s things to the two women who ruined her family. If Shana isn’t in a hurry to marry Peter, we can continue dragging things on!” I said and hung up.
Anyway, I plan to stay in the capital for a while longer. I can slowly deal with this matter.
When I arrived at the movie theater on Wu Tong Street, according to the address Shana gave me, I found that it had been decorated with flowers and balloons. Many young people from various families were also gathered there.
On the other side, I saw Shana dressed in a grand outfit. She was talking to a few rich ladies around her, beaming with joy.
Why did Shana have to call me here?
Did she want to see me make a fool of myself, or does she want to humiliate me in front of so many people? Or perhaps she wanted to show off her current happiness to me, to show that she’s living better than me?
Either way, I didn’t care. So I picked a spot that wasn’t too noticeable and sat down.
As the lights in the venue lit up, everyone quietened down and were looking forward to the appearance of the main character.
Shana also saw me and walked over snootily. She said to me proudly, “Didn’t you always want to snatch Peter from me? Unfortunately, Peter has always liked me, and you are just a clown.”
Not expecting her to insult me using Peter, I shrugged indifferently. “Only a dung beetle would treat dung as a treasure.”
“Just watch and be jealous of me.”
Shana wasn’t angry at my sarcasm this time.. She sat next to me confidently.
