Chapter 411
Wilson let out a cold snort but did not say another word.
Cecil and Everleigh were together when they bumped into Hendrick and his friends. When they saw
Theodore and Everleigh, they were more certain of their own spections.
As expected, they had a close rtionship with each other.
"Miss Jenkins."
"Why are you guys here alone? Where''s Alexander?" Everleigh did not know what to say as she
looked at the four of them.
She did not see him anywhere.
"He has a lot of things to attend to. The Jenkins family managed to gather all the powerful and
influential people in Ocpeace City here. Many people want to know what the famous Miss Jenkins is
capable of," Yolex teased with a smile.
She returned his smile but said nothing. She turned around and nced at Theodore.
He recognized them from when they had worked together with Godfrey Group, but it was solely
business.
"Everleigh, it''s great that you''re here. I have a few friends who''d like to meet you. Come with me."
Cynthia approached from the other side and pushed Cecil aside, almost making her fall. Cynthia,
however, acted as if nothing had happened. She held Everleigh''s arm and acted like a spoiled little
sister.
Looking at the girl in front of her, Cecil frowned. Where did she evene from?
Theodore''s brows furrowed when he saw her grabbing onto Everleigh''s arm. His eyes were filled
with displeasure, but he remained silent.
"My friend''s here. I''ll go overter." Everleigh was a little upset to see that Cecil almost fell down.
She discreetly withdrew her hand.
Cynthia knew what she really meant, but if she did not persuade her to go over, how was she
supposed to put her y into action?
"Everleigh, you being here is a rare asion, so it''s only right for you to get to know some of our
own people. Don''t keep mingling with outsiders," Cynthia sounded a little anxious. She just hoped
that Everleigh would follow her, but she did not expect that her words would offend the people
around her.
"Miss Jenkins, what do you mean by ''don''t keep mingling with outsiders''? Who do you think we
are?" Ralph said in a deep voice, his face clearly showing his displeasure.
They had seen her before, and they knew that she spoke without thinking. However, she should
really pay attention to the situation when she spoke.
She may not be cunning, but did she at least have a brain?
"I''ve long heard that the second daughter of the Jenkins family has the nature of a child. It turns out
that they''re telling the truth," Theodore''s cold voice came from behind.
Only then did Cynthia notice Theodore''s presence. She gaped slightly at the man in front of her, and
she could only stare at him.
"Are you Theodore Godfrey?" She asked in disbelief. She had seen him on the news before.
At that moment, she found him very handsome and charming, and she wanted to be his bride.
Theodore was displeased with the love- struck expression on her face and said nothing.
Everleigh could also see how smitten Cynthia was with him, so she turned to re at her.
Theodore was innocent. Too many people fell for him, and he could not possibly respond to all of
them.
Cecil somewhat figured out who this woman was, so she stood up straight and said coldly,
"Everleigh, who''s this? Why''s she so unruly, staring at guests? Do you want to put up a picture of
this face in your room?"
Cecil''s mocking tone amused them.
Juman and his friends could not resistughing. It was true that only women could be so ruthless to
each other.
Not only them, Everleigh, too, could not help but want tough.
She already knew Cynthia''s true character during theirst encounter.
"You... You''d better watch yourself," Cynthia turned to scowl at Cecil.
Cecil snorted and studied her, then figured that she was beyond help.
"Everleigh, is she your friend? Why''s she so rude?"
"Do you think you''re very polite, staring at guests like this?" Everleigh retorted.
Cynthia opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Everleigh did not want her to cause a scene, so she said, "You wanted to bring me to your friends,
didn''t you? Let''s go."
Cynthia almost forgot about that, so she quickly nodded and said, "Alright, let''s hurry over. We
shouldn''t let them wait for too long, or they''ll call us poor hosts."
Cecil nearly blurted out that she was indeed being a poor host.
Everleigh followed her to the other side and saw three brightly-dressed girls, who seemed to only be
a few years younger than her.
"This is my cousin, Everleigh." Cynthia said cheerily. She turned around to introduce her to her
friends, "This is Linda Aiden, Shirley Norris, and Sisley Mills."
Everleigh nodded in greeting.
"Miss Trevino, you''re very beautiful. No wonder Cynthia has given you so much praise," Sisley said
while smiling, two small dimples showing on her face.
It made her look rather cute.
Everleigh smiled, "Thank you for thepliment."
"Don''t just stand there, have a seat. I''m going to go get some juice for you all." Cynthia waited for
them to sit down before going to the drinks station.
After she left, Linda asked Everleigh, "Miss Trevino, I heard that your marriage with Mr. Meyer was
fake, is that true?"
Everleigh''s face became stiff. Looking at their enthusiasm, she knew why Cynthia had brought her
there.
She really just wanted to humiliate her.
"Yes, what''s the matter?"
"Miss Trevino, I think you should be more considerate. If you keep getting involved with men like
this, I''m afraid that it''ll affect the Jenkins family and yourself." Shirley''s expression was a little cold,
and her eyes were full of disdain.
Everleigh watched their little ruse and could not hold back her words, "Don''t you think you''re
overstepping a little? Mr. Meyer and I have our reasons for having a fake marriage. You''re all well-
breddies from wealthy families. Don''t you know when such tricks are necessary?"
When they heard that, the three girls'' eyes widened. Sisley hissed angrily, "How can you say such
shameless things?"
"Do you know what it means to be shameless? You investigated me privately then questioned me to
my face. You don''t think that''s shameless of you?" Everleigh countered with a sneer.
The three women were struck dumb. For a moment, they did not know how to answer.
"A kind reminder, check yourself before you talk bad about others." "You... are simply..."

"Oh... I''m not finished. You girls aren''t ill, are you? How about the three of you go to the hospital for
a health checkup tomorrow? I''ll personally examine you to find out what kind of diseases you have,"
Everleigh said kindly.
Meanwhile, Cecil was watching them from a short distance away, and she saw that their
expressions were not pleasant.
She could more or less guess what had happened.
Theodore was doing the same. He did not have a good feeling about Cynthia. Although he was
talking to a businessman, his eyes were looking in Everleigh''s direction.
Cynthia walked over with several drinks and smiled, "What are you guys talking about?"
