Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 56

"No."

Wesley waved his hand dismissively in the air. "I can agree to anything but I have high standards for my living quarters so I'll not settle for anything less. I've met Rebecca before. Honestly, she doesn’t have the experience and knows nothing about the latest materials and high-tech appliances. She'll ruin my house."

Ethan felt slightly embarrassed. It was his fiancee they were discussing, after all.

"But she did pretty well in the Culture and Technology Center project..."

"Don't forget that she successfully won the bid only because I pulled some strings." A look of displeasure washed over Wesley's face as he talked about this. " Besides, you should be grateful that President Sawyer didn’t expose us or we would have been in big trouble."

Ethan felt his heart sink. "Fine, it's no big deal if you disagree. Oh right, is that a sketch you're holding?

Which designer are you going for? I'm just asking out o f curiosity and nothing else."

"Joseph Talton, he's a friend of mine from Perth. He opened a franchise here in Melbourne.” Wesley

handed over the sketch to his nephew.

"This is created by one of his designers. She produced a sketch for the entire 3,000 square meters villa in less than half an hour, not to mention getting every detail perfectly down to my preferences. I'm very satisfied."

Ethan froze for a split second when he noticed the initials at the bottom right of the sketch. He recalled bumping into her by the gate earlier. Apparently, she had been here to design his uncle's villa.

"Yup, that's her."

"Uncle, you can’t hire her," he said awkwardly, "She's the younger daughter of the Jones family I told you before. She used to be my girlfriend but she has become fairly disreputable. Not only did she plagiarize the work of another, but she also tarnished her own parents' reputation."

This took Wesley by surprise. No wonder he thought the name was familiar.

Upon remembering the woman’s kind and polite demeanor, he could not help but frown.

"I don't think she needs to plagiarize others, given her talents. I've developed a good judgment from dealing with all sorts of people in the business world. She's a rare talent, and I don't think she's disreputable. Quite the contrary, Ethan, I think you hold prejudice against her..."
