Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin)

Suzanne scoffed and said sarcastically to Seline, "What does it matter to me whether Henry is happy or not?"

Her voice was loud enough for the people near the car to hear.

Seline's expression turned sour immediately. Suzanne was such a bitch! Tears welled up in her eyes in an instant, and she said in a tone full of hurt, "Sue, how can you say that? I'm your sister!"

Suzanne was so disgusted that she almost felt sick. She couldn't even begin to understand how Seline could act so shamelessly.

Austin set the flowers down in the back seat and looked at Suzanne disapprovingly. "She's no one important. Why bother arguing with her?"

He remembered every single thing the Yates family had done to Suzanne, so how could he have anything nice to say about them? If it weren't for Suzanne, he would have been even harsher with his words.

Seline was stunned. Her face instantly went pale, and she clenched her purse tightly.

How could this man behave like this? That bitch, Suzanne, must have said something to him, or else how could he say something like that?

Suzanne looked at Austin and gave him a small smile. Nodding in agreement, she said, "My bad. You're right. Humans can't have a proper conversation with animals, after all."

She knew she could trust Austin to say something offensive to Seline without swearing and still be able to embarrass Seline.
