Chapter 101 An Unexpected Slap in the Face

Speaking of Fiona, most folks in the high society crowd looked

down on her. The primary reason was that her ascent wasn't respectable back then-going from a secretary to a wealthy elite's wife. This was something that all upper-class ladies deeply abhorred. Moreover, there was a complicated history between her and Mrs. Lucky Johnson.

Back when Fiona had ambitions to marry into wealth, she was just a secretary under Mr. Goergie Johnson. In order to rise in status, she employed various tactics, even going to the extent of secretly administering drugs.

Unfortunately, Mr. Goergie Johnson, at that time, had a deep and unwavering affection for Mrs. Lucky Johnson. Due to this, he dismissed Fiona.

Even after Fiona successfully connected with Mr. Grayson from the Wallace group, she still viewed this episode as a shame in her life. Whenever she encountered Mrs. Lucky Johnson, she couldn't help but make sarcastic comments.

With the recent rumors about Charlotte and David spreading through the circle, Fiona saw this as a prime opportunity.

Mrs. Lucky Johnson had always believed women shouldn't trouble other women and never responded to Fiona's provocations. However, now it seemed that such disregard was making Fiona perceive Mrs. Lucky Johnson as weak and vulnerable to be taken advantage of.

"I've heard that Mr. Grayson has hired another beautiful secretary recently. Congratulations." Mrs. Lucky Johnson said

with a faint smile, striking right at Fiona's sore spot.

Being able to turn Fiona from a secretary into a wife, it was clear that Mr. Grayson was not a faithful man.

Back then, after getting involved with Fiona, he divorced his first wife and later married Fiona. Now that the novelty had worn off, Mr. Grayson had long been itching to stray. It was just that Fiona's cunning prevented her from ending up like the original wife.

However, attractive secretaries were still in no short supply.

"You!"

Fiona glared at Mrs. Lucky Johnson in anger and spat out fiercely, "You are just a divorced woman, nothing but an outcast..."

Smack!

Before Mrs. Lucky Johnson could react in anger, Charlotte

had already slapped Fiona across the face, her expression

ice-cold.

This action stunned not only Fiona but also those who had

been waiting to watch the drama unfold.

In their social circle, verbal dueling was the norm, but to see someone like Charlotte directly slap someone was unheard of.

Unconcerned by the gazes of others, Charlotte's lips curved slightly as she spoke in a cold tone, "Mrs. Swan, if you can't speak properly, it's best you go read more books. Objectifying yourself might not matter. but don't drag others into it."

Although Fiona had suffered quite a bit in order to rise, ever since she became Mr. Grayson's wife, everyone had been polite and cordial to her face. When had she been treated this way before?

Fiona was like an enraged lion, almost pouncing on Charlotte.

At this critical moment, Wendy called out, "Auntie?"

Turning her head in anger, Fiona's face with a palm print shocked Wendy.

Wendy owed her current life to Fiona's covert help behind

the scenes. Despite her underlying thoughts, the relationship between them remained strong.

Furthermore, this was supposed to be her engagement banquet with Joe. For Charlotte to openly slap her aunt like this was akin to slapping her face!

Her eyes had just turned red when David suddenly appeared from somewhere and stopped her, saying, "Mrs. Smith, you must be calm. Although there are many people here, few cherish women like Mr. Smith does."

With his remark, Wendy's tears were held back, unsure whether she should continue crying.

Ultimately, all she could do was choke up as she confronted Charlotte, "Miss Clinton, didn't you say you've completely moved on from the past? What's the meaning of causing a scene at my engagement banquet?"

Charlotte raised an eyebrow, "I'm causing a scene?"

Seeing many people's hidden glances toward them, Wendy's excitement grew. Her expression turned even more aggrieved.
