Second floor of the hotel.
Zuri Ginger, Rowanda Peterson, and Grassy were waiting in the lobby.
Beside them—
Aurora Cooper’s assistant, Margot, was accompanying them.
Margot was a lively black girl that Aurora had brought back from abroad; she was quite favored by Aurora.
Zuri knew this from staying at Cooper Manor for a few days.
At this mont—
Seeing her engrossed in her phone, Zuri coughed with annoyance and said, "Margot, go get so fruit for my friend."
Margot: "..."
After a mont, she glanced at the fruit plate on the coffee table and asked, puzzled, "Isn’t there so already?"
Zuri gave a faint smile, "I’ve lost my taste, I want sothing sour. Go get so oranges from the banquet hall on the fourth floor."
"..." Margot was taken aback for a mont, then nodded, "Alright."
She turned and went upstairs.
Seeing her turn the corner to the elevator, Zuri withdrew her gaze and said helplessly, "My mom is just too easygoing; all these assistants act like they’re just here to kill ti, playing on their phones from morning till night, with no sense of being an assistant at all."
Grassy smiled at her and said, "That girl looks like she’s at most twenty, how did she beco your mom’s assistant?"
"Who knows?" Zuri said gloomily, "They say she’s black, but she has a Chinese na; they call her an assistant, but she never does any real work, not quite foreign and not quite local. My mom actually likes her quite a bit, takes her everywhere..."
"Haha." Grassy chuckled cooperatively and glanced at Zuri.
Zuri was wearing a loose, gray and white color-blocked dress, sitting lazily on the sofa, wrapped in an orange-red fur-collared cape, with exquisite makeup and specially styled hair, looking even more glamorous than usual.
Like a commanding, elegant princess.
Completely distanced from her.
Especially—
She had secretly been seeing Rowanda and even had a child with him.
She didn’t even try to avoid it.
Grassy looked at her, unable to help clenching her hand that hung by her side, yet her face maintained a forced smile.
She felt utterly inferior.
Before, Zuri was just the mayor’s daughter, and she felt it was alright.
After all—
Zuri had always seed approachable and didn’t really put on airs.
Only after her sister Mia Ginger returned, did she feel embarrassed for the first ti at the birthday party.
But who knew—
She knew that she liked Rowanda, yet she secretly started dating him.
What a green tea b*tch!
She even had the nerve to invite her to this party, wasn’t it just to flaunt and show off in front of her?
Grassy bit her lower lip, feeling frustrated.
Yet she had to suppress her anger.
She wanted to see how long she could maintain this sudden streak of luck with Rowanda.
Humph.
Grassy leaned forward, picked a piece of waterlon from the coffee table, and took a bite, feeling the coldness penetrate her heart.
Rowanda sat beside her, not saying a word for a long ti.
Zuri’s current status was really beyond his expectations, not just Zuri, even he felt a bit dizzy.
He already knew Aurora was still unmarried, which ant Zuri was her only daughter and naturally the sole heir to Amanda Company. Marrying Zuri, after all, was certainly a glamorous thing.
Even though he wasn’t soone greedy or insatiable, having a wife with such status was still quite prestigious.
Rowanda looked up at Zuri, puzzled, "Where’s your mom? She went down earlier but hasn’t co back up, and it’s almost ti."
