Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 93

I was eyeing Catherine, waiting for her to spill the beans on the message she had sent, which had sent

Hazel into a frenzy, looking for her son to such an extent that she had a full-blown argument with

Marissa. It was a dramatic case of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship gone sour.

To be honest, I found the whole scenario quite amusing. This was precisely the kind of chaos I had

been hoping for. Once the catfight began, the hatred would naturally spread. It was like a soap opera in

the making.

When I asked Catherine about it, she didn’t tell me directly and kept me guessing, "Don't you check the Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

group chat?"

"Which group chat?" I asked, confused.

Catherine rolled her eyes, "The one we joined during the last social gathering, the one filled with rich,

high-society ladies! That chat group is a gold mine, you should keep an eye on it. It's full of juicy gossip

and potential opportunities to seize."

I immediately grasped the significance of that group chat.

Catherine chuckled, flashing her pearly whites, "I just dropped a message in the group: The Starry

Night of the Green Mango Awards will be held on a cruise ship, with entry tickets starting at fifty

thousand. All the high-end ladies in the state are scrambling for them, and they're almost sold out. It's

an exclusive gathering of the cream of the crop of the wealthy!"

I burst out laughing, "You truly understand Hazel. No wonder she's so anxious, not even caring about

her well-behaved grandson. It's all because Marissa got in her way. The Green Mango Oscar

Awards...you're quite the storyteller!"

Catherine quickly defended herself, "It's a real event! These ceremonies rely on the sponsorships of

these wealthy ladies. So, the fifty-thousand entry ticket is just pocket change for them. The most

exclusive ones even go into hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they're all sold out. I just used it as

bait."

I absolutely believed her. After all, Catherine was an insider, she knew the ins and outs of this circle.

"Remember these two key phrases, 'almost sold out' and 'all the wealthy ladies of this city'. How could

she not go?" Catherine said, laughing, "Of course, she'd ask Jaylan for money. It's quite urgent."

"Yes, and she's afraid of being kicked out of this exclusive circle." I sighed, "But that child is poor."

Catherine looked disgusted and said, "Don't be ridiculous! Don't play the saint, remember, like mother,

like son. Since you pity him, can you adopt him? I bet he's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Marissa just

wants to live off her son's achievements. You should be worried about your children. How has Jaylan

been treating them? Does he care about them? Does he ever ask about them?"

Though her words were harsh, they were nonetheless true.

Jaylan had often taken Evan on fun outings, while my children were sent off to boarding school and

treated harshly, kept away from their mother.

If something were to happen to me, they would surely suffer. A wave of resentment washed over me,

"Indeed, my children would be worse off."

"Allie, remember, do not view the world through rose-tinted glasses. Being kind-hearted is good, but

you need to know your limits. Preaching kindness to a bunch of devils makes you a fool, and you'll be

the one to meet an untimely end. It's survival of the fittest, understand?"

"Let's begin their journey to ruin then!" I stated, steeling myself.

"What's your next move?" Catherine asked, her tone serious.

"Now that the mess in his family has been stir up, we can't just sit around waiting." I said confidently, "I

want to... short sell Medsafe Liyah Inc.!"
