Chapter 69 Ruin Their Husbands In Seconds.
Crystal lifted her gaze and spotted Clementine speaking with a few wealthy women.
The women were parents of Crystal’s former piano students. She had had a good relationship with them in the past. However, ever since her reputation was tarnished, they had collectively requested to switch her for someone else.
Clementine had taken all of Crystal’s former pupils under her wing.
The women felt awkward meeting Crystal and merely forced an awkward smile.
In contrast, Crystal greeted them magnanimously.
Clementine hated Crystal after Robert ditched her. Oh, I’m so glad to meet her here with the parents. It’s like the heavens have granted me a chance to humiliate her!
She strode over and said, “I didn’t expect to meet you here, Crystal! You seem to be living at good life after your resignation. The coffee here is quite expensive, though. After what happened to your family, you can’t spend money like you used to anymore.”
Crystal responded with an amiable smile.
Raising her voice on purpose, Clementine added, “The rumors circulating in the school. forum aren’t true, right? Did you really get together with an old man for vanity’s sake?”
The rich women inhaled sharply because they realized something. She’s pretty and often provided extra lessons at our homes without charge. Was she attempting to seduce our husbands?
Their impression of Crystal worsened.
Crystal didn’t rebuke the claims. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Instead, she answered with a smile, “I did start dating someone recently.”
Clementine was dumbfounded, not expecting Crystal to admit it openly. Hah, she must’ve truly hooked up with a rich old man. I guess she won’t need to worry about money for the rest of her life!
Chuckling, she turned to the women. “Everyone has their own ambition, I suppose.”
The women treated Clementine politely, much like how they had interacted with Crystal in the past.
“We feel safe with Miss Dynah teaching our children.”
The most important thing about a teacher is their character.”
Their praises pleased Clementine, especially because those parents used to be chummy with Crystal.
Leaning toward Crystal, Clementine whispered, “If I were you, I wouldn’t attend the class. reunion to avoid embarrassing myself.”
Crystal lowered her head.
She let out a sigh and said, “Is it really worth it for a man like Robert?” Back when they were university students, Clementine and Crystal had been good friends. However, their friendship was now broken because of Robert.
Clementine left with the women with a sneer on her face. Who is she to decide if it’s worth it or not? I simply can’t stand her leading a good life.
Crystal turned to Madison. “I’m surprised you didn’t say anything. Usually, you would’ve blown up by now.”
Madison ruffled her hair. “Well, we save the best for the last. Say… how do you think they will react when they see Henry sitting next to you at the class reunion? You know, despite how haughty those women appeared earlier, their husbands are relying on Miller Corporation to make a living. Also, with how influential Mr. Miller is in the legal industry, he can ruin their husbands in seconds!”
Thinking about Henry, Crystal grinned. She took a sip of coffee and asked, “Is he that amazing?”
“You should know, right?”
Crystal replied with silence.
At that moment, Henry texted her: Did you feel good last night, Miss Winters?
Crystal’s cheeks burned again. Biting her lip, she replied: It was okay.
A second later, her phone vibrated again because Henry had sent another message: I thought it was pretty good. Should we head home earlier after the class reunion on Saturday?
Just as Crystal was wondering what to reply, Madison snatched her phone and read the text. Wow, I can’t believe Mr. Miller can text about something this intimate so directly. How naughty.
