"Don't worry, I'll be home soon." Esther reassured her.

After ending the call, she let out a long sigh.

Richard and Winona's upcoming wedding was the talk of the town. As the most eligible bachelor in Enswood, Richard attracted plenty of attention, and people were eager to see who would win his heart.

Despite being the subject of envy and gossip, Winona remained unfazed. Marrying Richard meant she was the ultimate victor, and she saw no point in engaging with jealous women.

Winona stood tall, her expression haughty. "Well, since you know I'm getting married soon, shouldn't you be offering your well wishes? As his ex-fiancee, you surely want him to be happy."

It was clear Winona was there to show off.

Winona's smile faltered as Pearl's tone grew colder. "Are you upset? My apologies," she replied, refusing to back down. "I almost forgot how much you loved Richard. Why would you bless him to be with another woman..."

Pearl studied Winona's face carefully before speaking in a serious tone. "That aside, your eyeliner is lopsided."
