Chapter 215


    "She’s a woman of the Taylor family and had a knack for business. I remember how her results were


    always the best when we still studied together. She must be doing much better than us regr white-


    cor workers!" a woman spoke aloud. She was dressed in a crisp white shirt and a ck pencil skirt.


    "Heh... I don''t think you’ll ever be able to imagine what actually happened to Selena and what she''s


    doing now, Rosa!”


    A bespectacled man adjusted his sses on the bridge of his nose. He exuded a smart, stylish


    countenance." Five years ago, not long after we graduated," he said to Rosa, "Selena got married!"


    "What? She got married?”


    Rosa was shocked when she heard that. It was not considered toote for the modern woman to get


    married, especially for a strong, career-oriented woman like Selena. Furthermore, she was only 27


    years old. i


    Selena was about her age. If she had married five years ago, then her child—if she had one-would be


    able to walk and run by now.


    "Isn''t that true though? I heard the rumor too!"


    Another woman said, smiling.


    "She still needs toe!"


    Rachel''s expression turned gloomy. She never expected Hugh to have invited Selena to their


    gathering.


    Just that afternoon, although she and her husband had walked away unscathed from Fane at the


    kindergarten, the people they had hired to fight for them had been beaten ck and blue. They were all


    sent to the hospital and the total bill would probablye to about two to three million bucks.


    Furthermore, these people needed to go for physical rehab, asides from the treatment fees. She and


    her husband would have to pay yet another pretty sum of money no matter what to appease them. The


    total amount she and her husband would have to spend was enough to make them cry.


    "What’s wrong, Rachel? Why do you look so glum? Don’t tell me you’re not looking forward to seeing


    her?"


    Hugh frowned. He always thought that Rachel seemed to have a grudge against everybody.


    "Oh, right. Now I remember! You and Selena didn''t get along well, did you?"


    The woman named Rosa Reyes then asked, "What’s wrong? Did you see her already? How is she


    now? Do you know?"


    The more Rachel thought about it, the angrier she got. She had been bullied by that good-for-nothing


    husband of hers today. More importantly, they would not dare to offend the other party anymore in the


    future. Since Fane and Selena were not around, Rachel thought of saying something to destroy their


    reputation.


    Mulling over it for a while, she thenmented," Don’t talk about it anymore. I just met her family this


    morning while we were registering our kid at a kindergarten. Selena is such a hypocrite now. She


    doesn''t have any money, yet she struts about as though she were a tycoon. Heh. I bet you guys don''t


    know that she married a delivery boy. This is what happened: the Taylor family had to send one of their


    sons to the military..."


    Rachel narrated the troubles Selena had been facing throughout these five years in detail first before


    she wrapped up her story. "So think about it: How much money would a jobless, trash-picker have? Her


    husband has probably not been back for long either, and he''s definitely another impoverished soul.


    Even with all that, they still brought their daughter to register at Middle Province''s best privately-owned


    kindergarten today!"


    "That''s right. They still want the best kindergarten even though they have no money? It''s all talk! I


    wonder who they borrowed money from to pay the tuition fees!"


    Dn also came to the gathering, his rotund figure heaving heavily. He had not been in a good mood


    the whole day.


    However, Rachel''s university mates-the female ones i n particr-all had splendid figures and had


    pretty attractive features too. His sour mood was lifted slightly at the sight.

    He thanked his lucky stars he came along tonight; his eyes were blessed with the sight of such pretty


    "No way. That''s terrible. Never mind if they''re poor, but faking appearances too..."


    Rosa never thought that Selena would turn out like this. Not only did she not marry a good man, she


    even scraped her pockets just for the sake of her vanity. Her untainted impression of Selena


    immediately shattered.
