"You are here too." Naomi held Jordan's arm, looking noble and elegant. My appearance was obviously beyond her expectation.
Jordan's expression was rather peaceful. He was probably immune to this "familiar acquaintance" of his.
I guessed that he didn't want to see me because he was afraid to see my passionate love for Hendrix. It would hurt his self-esteem and remind him that even though they were blood- related, Hendrix was cherished by others. Yet, he was all alone in this world. Even if he died, no one would shed a tear for him.
"I came to look for my husband. What are you both doing here?" I pretended not to know, and my tone didn't sound polite. On the outside, I had to pretend that after Jordan's plan, I had no choice but to stand on the same side as them. But after all, Jordan was the one who destroyed my perfect husband. Of course, I had a reason to act unfriendly.
You would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. Unfortunately, I was not a gentleman. Hence Jordan soon found out that I could compromise, but I could also look down on his actions forever.
Naomi sneered, and her words were full of contempt. "There's no one backing you up, yet you can still be so arrogant?"
"At least that's better than someone who can't even differentiate what's right and wrong, and just ends up losing one's dignity."
Although the Attwood family was not as prosperous as before, they were also strict in terms of attitude and reputation. All of them were upright and educated. Naomi might have forgotten how beautiful she used to be.
Andrea never had anyone teach her ever since she was a child. Hence, it could be said that she didn't have the ability to differentiate between what was right and wrong. However, Naomi came from an aristocratic family and was well- educated. She was born from a peaceful and prosperous family, yet she chose to associate herself with Jordan for the sake of a bad person like Sebastian. She chose to work with Jordan, and this was just pulling her down.
Some people had the chance to live under the sun, yet they chose to work in the dark. Such people were not worthy of sympathy.
