The two guys had been going at it so fiercely, who knew what would come out if it kept going?
At a time like this, there was no way the woman caught in the middle could just stay silent. So Mr. Langley quickly stepped in to lighten the mood. “So, what are you thinking of treating us to?”
“For us old man and two guys, it doesn’t really matter what we eat. We gotta follow what the young lady—”
“Esther loves seafood!”
Before Mr. Langley could finish his sentence, Evander eagerly cut him off, “I already booked seafood at Baba Restaurant. The car’s waiting downstairs.”
“Alright, Evander, that’s some genuine effort!”

The only consolation was that she always kept her noble lady demeanor, and what she said could only be heard by her and Esther. Even if she got embarrassed or slapped in the face, the only witness was Esther herself.Inhale, exhale, deep breath!“Evander, ditching your friends for a pretty face? That’s not very gentlemanly,” Luna said with a light laugh.She’d just taken a few emotional hits but recovered quickly. Within minutes, she latched onto Esther’s arm, forcing a graceful smile. Her voice was teasing—light, playful, trying to salvage her image.“I mean, Miss Davenier is gorgeous. Can’t blame you for being distracted. Such a heartbreaker.”It sounded harmless, just casual social banter—perfectly acceptable in public, no matter what Evander’s mood was. A joke with no real weight.

Seeing that Esther was really about to approach Evander, Luna panicked and grabbed her arm. “Are you crazy? Running up to a man like that—how disgraceful!”She had to admit, she was genuinely scared. Women like Esther—background unknown, raised in chaos—were capable of doing anything. “Why would you even ask something like that? Don’t you have any shame?”“Of course I do!”Esther shrugged, tearing off Luna’s mask without mercy. “That’s exactly why I don’t want people saying I’m ogling someone else’s man.”“Then don’t look!”That came out almost involuntarily from Luna—and wasn’t wrong.

Even if she was furious enough to explode, she still looked like a classy socialite.

Maris stood there, dumbfounded, instinctively wanting to stop her—only to realize she couldn’t. If she did, it would be as good as admitting everything Esther said was true.“N-No, Esther, back then Mom just thought… you were so beautiful…”“Mom, I know.”Before she could finish, Esther interrupted her through tears.“I know you did it for me. I mean, I’m not your biological child. If I didn’t earn my own money to support myself—and my little brother too—how would I ever know my own worth? This way, I don’t feel like a burden. So thank you, Mom… for understanding me so well.”Anyone can play the pitiful white snake. Maris: “…”Was that what she meant?No, she just wanted to use her as a cash cow.Esther was beautiful, and many directors and advertisers saw her potential.
