Megan was on the verge of believing in the fairy tale she had spun herself.. But only by flaunting her relationship and relentlessly antagonizing Aurelia could she find her sense of balance.
Although Leopold had agreed to marry her, he was as cold as ice towards her, even showing signs of extreme aversion. There was no way he would give her a diamond ring. It was something she prepared secretly, all just to provoke Aurelia.
Megan could see that Leopold loved Aurelia deeply. The more he loved her, the more Megan hated her, to the point where she wanted to tear her into pieces.
At this moment, she had succeeded.
Aurelia's heart felt as if it was being repeatedly pierced, akin to salt being rubbed into fresh wounds. The pain was intense, causing her to break out in a cold sweat.
However, she refused to waste her words in pointless bickering. She gritted her teeth, tried to remain calm, and maintained an air of indifference.
Compared to Melissa and Megan, she appeared particularly elegant and refined. Elvis admired her composure secretly.
"Melissa, Megan, if you're done talking, please leave. Don't embarrass yourselves and disturb our peace," he said.
Upon hearing his words, Melissa was instantly angered. "Elvis, what's the meaning of this? Are you siding with this woman?"
"Melissa, you boast of being noble, but you don't even understand basic respect for others. You're a disgrace to the Stirling family," Elvis retorted.
Melissa was so angry that she grabbed a glass of wine from the table to throw at Aurelia. However, Elvis pushed her hand away swiftly, causing the wine to splash on Megan instead.
Megan, soaked and embarrassed, quickly ran to the restroom.
Melissa was so angry, "Elvis, how could you do this to me? Do you actually want my brother's leftover?"
