Chapter 264 Quick-Witted

“I’m not a freeloader.”

Darien smiled and caressed her hair. “Well, I think Leonard doesn’t have the guts to take your

money.

“That’s between you and him. I will pay for my meal-I’m an honest person.”

“Is that so? Someone who’s honest wouldn’t quietly go to a fancy place without letting her

husband know.”

The entire room was silent apart from their lover’s squabble.

Mandy tightened her grip on the glass as she processed the information.

If she wasn’t mistaken, Damien had a limitless platinum card that was one of the few in the entire

world. The cardholder could enjoy VIP privileges of all high-end places in Adania.

It had an unlimited credit that allowed the holder to spend any amount of money they liked. On top of

that, the owner was given access to exclusive privileges. Someone once said enviously that

possessing the card would make one feel like a king.

Damien came to possess that card because his father had once saved an extremely important person,

who gave the card as a gift after that.

I can’t believe that Damien gave this card to the country bumpkin next to him.

Meanwhile, Lucy was quietly gloating as she noticed the change of expression on Mandy’s face.

It seems like Damien knows what we want today. He’s deliberately showing his love for Cherise in front

of Mandy.

Cherise turned to Mandy, “I hope you don’t mind, Ms. Wool. We just got married, so we are in our

lovey-dovey phase now. We didn’t mean to be rude.”

“Don’t worry about it. I heard of your background. It must be difficult for people like you to encounter a

man of Mr. King’s caliber. Of course, it makes sense for you to cling to him.” she said, taking a sip from

her teacup gracefully.

Her seemingly understanding statement was actually implying that based on Cherise’s countryside

family background, she was not a good match for Damien. Hence, her insecurity made her keep a

close watch on him at all times.

This unspoken layer behind her words was apparent to both Cherise and Lucy.

Halfway through the squabble with Damien, Cherise froze and stopped smiling.

Mandy widened her eyes in shock and covered her mouth in feigned horror “Please don’t get me

wrong, Mrs. King. I accidentally blurted everything out because everyone’s been talking about it

This was another jab at Cherise, telling her that others also had similar thoughts.

Cherise’s face darkened as she took a sip of her lemon water.

“If I hadn’t met you today, I wouldn’t know that socialites from a prominent family like yourself like

gossip as much as the old ladies in my village. It seems like family background is not the deciding

factor for how cultured you are. What do you think?”

I might not be as educated as them, but I’m not an idiot. It doesn’t mean they can belittle me!

Cherise’s retort perhaps came as a surprise to Mandy. “That’s true. Fortunately. I’m different from

them.”

Very well, now pointing the fingers at others, pushing the blame away from herself. Just a moment ago,

she was putting me down with her words.

“Good for you,” Cherise shot back sarcastically. “It’s better to stay away from those who gossip.

Otherwise, you might behave the same way as well. That’s a terrifying thought.”

Mandy’s face drained of blood as she remained silent.
