Chapter 96 Sister Uses Her Brother''s Card
Adeline was sitting on the VIP sofa at the moment, elegantly crossing one leg over the other,
sipping her coffee, her face serene and calm.
The wealthy women around her saw this and whispered to each other.
"Do you know who she is, a madam or missy? She truly has the demeanor of an aristocrat!"
"I have no idea! I''ve never heard of her in Prodiff, but her temperament is really good."

"She seems to have the air of a family matriarch."
...
While everyone was discussing Adeline, Olivia and Vi suddenly asked her to pay the bill.
Adeline curled her lips, responding with a light smile, "I''m not paying for your stuff. Fair enough?"
"What?!"
Olivia and Vi eximed in surprise simultaneously.
Olivia was the first to approach Adeline, asking incredulously, "Adeline, aren''t you going to pay for
me?"
As far as she could remember, Adeline had never refused her.
"Well, no," Adeline answered without any burden in her heart.
Olivia was a little embarrassed, and whispered into Adeline''s ear, "Adeline, we can''t lose face in
front of all these people. Look around. Everyone is watching!"
"Olivia, these clothes amount to hundreds of thousands. It''s not a small sum. This isn''t something a
mere teacher like me can afford. I''m sorry, but I can''t and won''t be able to cover this expense."
At this, the surrounding rich women snickered.
Public opinion suddenly shifted.
"I thought she was some newly rich wife! So that''s all there is?"
"She can''t afford it! And here I thought she was so calm!"
"She ims to be a teacher. Her temperament is really good."
Reba listened to the people''sments, her mouth curling up in a smirk.
Meanwhile, E, the chairwoman''s wife, remained silent, curious to see how Adeline would handle
this.
Olivia, much like Victoria, cared a lot about reputation. Seeing everyoneughing at her, she
hurriedly whispered to Adeline.
"Just use my brother''s card! Besides, I''m his sister. It''s perfectly reasonable for me to use his card."
Olivia''s voice was very low.
She felt very wronged. She wasn''t even asking Adeline to use her own money!
Adeline looked calmly at Olivia. "Regardless of whether it''s reasonable for a sister to use her
brother''s card to buy luxury items, the problem is, your brother''s card isn''t with me."
"What? My brother didn''t give you his card?" Olivia was stunned. "How could my brother not give
you his card? Didn''t he even give his card when something happened at Jodie''s house?"
Once she said it, Olivia realized she had said too much and quickly covered her mouth.
But Adeline justughed and didn''t mind.
After all, Logan was already history for her.
She didn''t feel wronged.
"Even if Logan really gave me his card, so what? Olivia, Logan''s monthly sry and subsidy add up
to just over 1,300 dors, and my sry is over one thousand a month. Evenbined, we can''t
afford a single item of clothing here. Do you think it''s reasonable to ask us to pay?"
Without thinking, Olivia replied, "But my brother has a dividend card! The Riley group gives at least
one million in dividends each quarter!"
Adeline''s face changed slightly.
This was something Logan had never mentioned to her.
No wonder Logan could afford to buy Victoria a bag before.
So that was because he had such a card!
After Olivia said it, she immediately covered her mouth again!
Shoot, she might have said too much.
Adeline smirked, "As you can see, I''m just an ordinary office worker. You want me to spoil you, I can
treat you to a meal within my means, but I can''t afford the clothes here."
"Can''t afford? Are you joking? Sister, how can someone living in Bay Hall not afford to buy this?"
Vi was too fond of the mink coat. She was determined to make Adeline buy it for her today no
matter what!
