Chapter 526
When Everleigh heard someone calling her name, she looked over and saw a person with a lovely,
youthful face and two huge eyes smiling at her.
"Erine, why are you here? When did youe back?" Everleigh walked over and gave her a hug.
Erine smiled and hugged her too,
"Someone from your hospital went abroad for an exchange program, and I''m the person exchanged
toe here. I will be reporting to the city hospital tomorrow to gain some knowledge," Erine
answered in her crisp voice.
She had a cute and clear voice, just like a little songbird.
Everleigh suddenly remembered that Benedict did mention it, but she didn''t expect the person to be
Erine.
"How do the two of you know each other?" Cecil asked curiously while holding her winess.
"Let me introduce you. This is Cecil, my best friend." She then turned to look at Cecil and
introduced Erine to her, "And this is Erine Harrison. I met her when I was an intern abroad. She''s
one of the best orthopedists around."
"Orthopedist? Wow, very few girls would specialize in orthopedics. You must be really strong," Cecil
said in surprise.
Erine smiled faintly and didn''t say anything.
The three of them then stood together and chatted for a while. Cecil liked Erine very much. She was
straightforward and said whatever she wanted to.
It was much better than someone who liked beating around the bush.
The three of them drank wine as they talked, and all three got a little drunk.
When Annie and Missha appeared at the main entrance, Everleigh noticed them at a nce, but
she didn''t n to go over and talk to them.
If Missha had attended by herself, she would''ve gone over and greeted her, but Annie... She''d
better forget it.
"It''s your aunt. Aren''t you going over to talk to her?" Erine asked with a slight blush on her cheeks.
"How do you know that?"
"Everyone in this circle knows that you are a child of the Jenkins family. It''s not surprising that I
know too.”
Everleigh couldn''t help but let out augh. She had never taken it as an honor, as it would only let
everyone know that she was an orphan.
Missha took a sip of wine, and noticed Everleigh with her sharp eyes.
"Everleigh!"
"Aunt Missha, when did you arrive?" Everleigh pretended to be surprised and asked.
Cecil and Erine looked at each other and understood what was going on.
"I just came in. Look at you. You must''ve been here for a long time already. Your face is so red,"
Missha joked with Everleigh, and her manner looked noble and elegant.
It was the first time Cecil met Missha in person. She had to admit that the members of the Jenkins
family were indeed elegant.
Annie walked over as well. After taking a look at Everleigh, she immediately noticed Erine standing
beside her, and squinted her eyes. "Erine."
"It''s been a long time since west met, Annie. How is your arm? Is it fine?"
"Yeah, it''s fine."
"That''s great. I was really worried that your arm would be broken again if you weren''t careful." Erine
was smiling brightly, but her words were extremely sarcastic.

Annie''s gaze turned cold as if it was covered with ayer of frost. She was clearly unhappy with
Erine''s words.
"Do you know each other?" Missha asked in puzzlement.
"Yeah, I first met Miss Lawson when she had a fight with someone at the hospital. She identally
broke her arm, and I helped to fix it."
Everleigh raised her eyebrows. She didn''t expect Annie to do something like that.
Annie''s expression looked both angry and anxious.
Missha had decades worth of life experience, so she could tell if there was a problem at first nce.
"Since the both of you know each other, then we''re all friends. Miss Harrison, what kind of work do
you do?" Missha asked politely.
"I work as a doctor abroad, and just came here for an exchange program. I''ll probably be here for a
few months."
Missha nodded.
Then, a few other nobledies arrived. Missha knew them, so she went to chat with them.
Annie was free to do whatever she wanted.
Everleigh selected a few wines, wrote down the address, and ordered the workers to send them
over to thepany.
Erine also left her home address for Everleigh and told her, "Come and visit me whenever you''re
free."
"Sure."
Looking at the address Erine had written down, Annie sneered, "The ce you''re staying at is really
unique. It really suits you."
"Of course. No matter where I go, my elegance will never fade away, unlike some people who
constantly pretend to be elegant," Erine replied lightly, which made Annie angry again.
Everleigh and Cecil stood aside, and felt that the hatred between the twodies was really strong.
Annie''s gaze was especially jealous when she stared at Erine.
"Erine, you''re only good at talking nonsense. Your family is in so much trouble both internally and
externally. How are you still in the mood to attend this wine tasting?"
Everyone knew that the Harrison family was struggling to survive abroad, and it was already
considered good that they were able to maintain their current status.
Erine''s eyes sparkled slightly as her lips curled into a smile. "Annie, don''t you know my identity right
now? Does the Harrison family even have anything to do with me? If you want to provoke me, at
least use something that I care about."
Annie was even more furious when she saw her attitude.
"That''s true. You''re an illegitimate child. It''s already very good for you to be able to enter the
Harrison family, so you really can''t expect too much from it."
Cecil couldn''t stand it anymore. Annie seemed like a well mannered woman from the outside, but
her words were incredibly hurtful.
"Miss, can you use your mouth in a better way besides eating?"
Annie red at her. "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing, I just think that one must speak in a wise and polite manner. Otherwise, even if he or she
comes from a well-known family, the snobbery can never be covered."
"You..."
"Alright, that''s enough. This is a wine tasting, I don''t want people to think that we''re here to cause
trouble. It''s really embarrassing," Everleigh cut them off.
Little did she know, her words caused Annie to be even more enraged.
What did Everleigh mean by embarrassing? She thought to herself.
She and Erine had always been enemies.
Erine smirked and said, "You''re right. I''m an illegitimate child, and everyone knows that, but you''re
different. You''re Miss Lawson, how could you say such rude words? How would others think of you?
Would Alexander fancy your character?"
Hearing thest few words, Annie''s expression changed in an instant. Those few words echoed in
her ears for a long time.
Alexander was disgusted with her, and she had always known it.
However, when it came out of someone else''s mouth, it sounded really sarcastic and mocking.
Her greatest wish was to marry him, but now that someone had criticized her for not being able to
do that, how could she tolerate it?
She reached her hand out and sshed her ss of wine on Erine.
Erine let out a loud scream, which attracted everyone''s attention.
Even her yellow dress was soaked in wine.
"Annie!"
Everleigh and Cecil took out some napkins and wiped Erine dry. They didn''t want her to look too
bad.
Annie had just lost her mind for a moment. She was already feeling unhappy because of her
rtionship with Alexander. Anyone who was in her shoes wouldn''t have been able to bear it either.
After hearing the scream, Missha rushed over immediately.
"What happened?"
"Aunt Missha, Miss Lawson sshed some wine on Miss Harrison," Everleigh frowned and
exined.
She was obviously displeased with Annie''s actions. Despite this, it was Erine who had deliberately
provoked her, which caused her to react in such a way.
Missha then looked at Annie. "Annie, how could you do this? You''re a nobledy after all."
