Chapter 1680
Georgia was dragging her heels, not ready to leave. It had been ages since shest saw ric, and now, after hardly exchanging a few words, she was being pulled away. How could she possibly be okay with that?
Angelina tugged at her, but Georgia kept looking back at ric with longing eyes.
There he was, ric, hands braced on the diner''s table, head bowed, the very picture of defeat and disinterest. Not a single look of longing for her, not a nce her way.
Just one look at ric, and Georgia''s heart twisted in pain, her annoyance biting at her lower lip.
She had poured all her love into this man, yearning to be with him against all odds, and yet he wouldn''t even spare her a nce!
Georgia was heartbroken, furious!
How could she possibly be inferior to Hertha? When it came to family background, she was leagues above Hertha!
In terms of looks, she was slim and stylish, miles ahead of the pudgy Hertha!
But ric, oh ric, had eyes only for Hertha!
Georgia felt her chest heave in anger.
Angelina could sense another one of her tantrums brewing and hurriedly pulled her away.
Once they hit the sidewalk, Georgia couldn''t take it anymore. She shook off Angelina''s grasp and screamed out loud, "Ah!"
Angelina quickly covered her mouth, "What are you doing? People will think you''re nuts!"
Georgia pushed her hand away, panting, "Why? Why doesn''t ric like me! That wench Hertha, she''s already had kids with another man, and he''s still hung up on her!"
Seeing Georgia in such a state, Angelina was speechless, disappointed. Her tantrums were infamous, ready to explode at any moment.
No wonder ric wasn''t interested.
Who would fancy a woman with such a sharp tongue, sparing no one''s feelings?
If it weren''t for the prestige of the
Whitman family, she wouldn''t want
to spend another minute with Georgia, let alone y matchmaker with her own son!
Georgia''s only saving grace was her affluent background.
"Georgia, calm down. Let''s dig into Hertha''s past first. Knowing your enemy is the key to victory," Angelina tried to soothe her.
Georgia red at Angelina, "Why bother investigating that tramp Hertha? She''s already had kids with another man. How is someone so low worth my time?"
Angelina sighed inwardly. There''s nothing worse than someone who won''t listen to reason.
Georgia was a lost cause, squandering every advantage she had.
Three years ago, she had the upper hand, having spent a night with ric, which led to their engagement. All she needed to do was y her cards right, and ric would have married her. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
After all, ric had benefited from the Whitmans, climbing to the position of Vice President.
With time and a little push from the Whitmans, Georgia and ric could have easily tied the knot.
But Georgia, with her arrogance, was
always at odds with ric,
nes
embarrassing him in public and at
o`
Falconer Group shareholder meetings, causing him to lose face.
Frustrated, ric had called off their engagement.
Georgia''s current predicament was entirely of her own making.
"If you don''t want to dig deeper, then let''s drop it and head back," Angelina said, no longer willing to argue, and led Georgia home.
After dropping Georgia off, Angelina wasted no time in contacting her connections to thoroughly investigate Hertha.
