Chapter 727 Chapter 727: Beneath her composed exterior, envy simmered.
How could Harlee, simply because of her background, secure the attention of someone as influential as Rhys? The injustice gnawed at her.
Kelley had always prided herself on her ability to win over men, confident her charm far surpassed Harlees so- called dull and uninspiring demeanor.
What exactly made Harlee worthy of Rhys attention? Kelley clenched her fists, thinking bitterly that if only shed been born into a better family, Rhys would surely have been hers.
Wiping her eyes, Kelley formed a bold plan.
She had already antagonized Harlee beforewhat harm would there be in doing so again? Agitating her might even be worth it.
In the Tartarus Club, aside from Patrick, Hamilton, and Bart, who had exchanged brief pleasantries with Harlee, no one seemed to know much about her.
Most had expected Rhys to bring a warm and approachable partner, not someone like Harlee, who exuded an aloof and imposing aura that perfectly mirrored Rhys own.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven while standing silently, her commanding presence was palpable.
The room buzzed quietly until the hush was broken by the sound of heels clicking against the polished floor. Oaklee approached Harlee with confident strides, her expression unreadable.
The crowd held its breath, bracing for conflict.
To everyones surprise, Oaklee greeted Harlee with a bright smile.
Miss Gill... Oh, forgive me, its Miss Sanderson now, isnt it? Its been ages.
I didnt expect you to be Rhys girlfriend.
Hes so lucky.
The onlookers were dumbfounded.
What on earth was going on? Oaklee knew Rhys girlfriend and even greeted her with such warmth? How unbelievable.
Explore fresh updates on gVlnove????sHarlee tilted her head slightly, as if trying to recall who the woman in front of her was.
After a moment, she raised an eyebrow and asked lazily, Are you Oaklee? A collective gasp rippled through the crowd.
Oaklee wasnt known to tolerate disrespect, and Harlees dismissive tone seemed like a sure way to provoke trouble.
However, what followed left them even more stunned.
Instead of reacting with anger, Oaklee smiled coolly and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
Im not surprised youve forgotten me.
A pity, though.
I wear your creations almost every day.
Oaklee extended a hand toward Harlee and asked, Miss Sanderson, surely you have tto chat this time? Harlee glanced at Oaklees outstretched hand but made no move to take it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmInstead, she nodded slightly.
I noticed the dress youre wearing, she said flatly, her tone neutral.
Her words carried an unspoken implication: if it werent for the dress, Oaklee wouldnt have been remembered at all.
The crowd exchanged incredulous looks at Harlees unapologetic dismissal.
She wasnt just boldshe was audacious.
Oaklee rarely extended genuine friendship to others, yet Harlee blatantly declined Oaklees handshake and responded with dismissive arrogance, showing no regard for her whatsoever. Could simply being Rhys girlfriend embolden Harlee to this extent? Surely not.
Instinctively, everyone stepped back, expecting Oaklees infamous temper vel to ignite.
It seemed inevitable that Harlee would face her wrath, and a clash her wrath was about to erupt.
