Isabella was just about to look up, ready to cast a reproachful, victimized glare at Serena and put on the performance of a lifetime. But the moment she lifted her head, she met Douglas's half-smiling face.
A violent shudder ripped through her body. Douglas?!
What time was it? Why had he arrived with Serena?! If Douglas was here, their plan to point fingers and condemn Serena first was completely ruined.
She swallowed hard. A second later, her gaze shifted to the tall, striking man standing in the doorway, and her pupils constricted in shock. "Nicholas..."
Why was he here? Wasn't he back in Elyndor? How could he be here in the United Realmon States? And with Serena... Had he flown all the way here just for her?
Isabella's eyes instantly welled up with tears. A suffocating wave of jealousy and panic crashed over her. She couldn't let Nicholas know about those photos and videos! She couldn't destroy her perfect image in his eyes!
Anna, by comparison, wasn't nearly as smart. The moment she spotted Serena, her temper flared. Her eyes flashed with pure hatred. "You bitch, you actually dare to show your face!"
"Douglas, you're incredibly biased!" She glared at him, furious. "You actually helped her! You teamed up with this bitch to bully us! We're all part of the Vinton family. Do you have any idea how much humiliation I suffered yesterday? You threw away the Vinton family's dignity just for her!"
Then, she noticed the devastatingly handsome man standing at the door. Remembering how he had just been holding Serena's hand, sheer envy gnawed at her insides.
Boiling with rage, she screamed, "Bitch! Is he your lover? What else are you good for besides seducing men? Is this your newest toy? Are you trying to use him to torture Isabella and me..."
*Slap!*
