Clad in designer attire with a heavily made-up face, Yuliana was adorned with gold and silver jewelry on her wrists, neck, and ears, exuding a sense of opulence and grandeur.
Upon laying eyes on Roxanne, she was momentarily surprised. However, she quickly regained her composure and arched her eyebrows, smiling as she strode toward her sister.
“Isn't this my dear sister? It's such a coincidence. We haven't seen each other in six or seven years, right?” Yuliana's voice was always tinged with a sarcastic tone.
Roxanne's expression was solemn, and her eyes reflected an indifferent attitude. She retorted immediately, “I heard you were a tour guide in South East Aploth. How did you suddenly fulfill your dream of becoming part of a wealthy family?”
Peregrine and Linda, standing beside her, exchanged surprised glances as they tried to discern Yuliana's identity. Why would she dare to act so arrogantly in front of Roxanne?
Roxanne shot Linda a look; the latter immediately nodded and led Peregrine and the other executives away.
“How can I ever compare to you, Roxanne? I never imagined that Mr. Farwell of the Farwell Group would remarry you. You're the one who has achieved your dream by attaching yourself to a wealthy family. I'm nothing compared to you.” Yuliana's words were full of sarcasm.
Without giving Roxanne a chance to retaliate, she continued, “Looks like having children brings many benefits. A responsible man like Mr. Farwell must have remarried you because of the children. I need to follow your lead, Roxanne!”
A grim look crept onto Roxanne's face. As there was no one else around, she felt no need to be courteous toward Yuliana.
“Yuliana, you are still as sharp-tongued as ever! However, trying to provoke me with those worthless words is futile now. I guess you must be jealous. So what if I did marry into a wealthy family? I should remind you to check the current market value of Flora Verba Group. I'm now a wealthy woman in my own right! Do you understand?” Roxanne hissed.
Her quick-witted remarks shattered Yuliana's pretentious pride.
Her face reddened with embarrassment as she clenched her teeth and gave Roxanne a cold glare.
“Don't get too smug, Roxanne! Life is long and unpredictable, and no one knows what will happen in the future. But one thing is for sure, in the past, you were nothing but a punching bag for me!”
