S3 120. Point Number Two

‘Remember point number two, Ava. You can’t feel small or inferior. Jeremy is behind you. So, don’t be afraid to fight back if someone is bullying you,” Ava said repeatedly to herself. Those sentences were like a mantra to her.

Five steps from the gate, Ava exhaled quickly. “You guys ready?” Her head turned slightly.

Two men behind her answered in unison, “Ready, Miss.”

While straightening her posture, Ava walked over to her sister.

“Well, well…” Eva folded her arms across her chest. Her gaze was cynical, her lips twitched in disgust. “I thought you were done bullying me in the boutique. Turns out, you want to bully me here too?”

Ava stopped walking with a firm expression. She and Eva were now only one meter apart, separated by beautifully carved iron bars.

“Don’t distort the facts or make things up. I never bullied you.”

Eva snorted. “If you don’t mean to bully me, then why don’t you let n in? I’m almost getting moldy here. But instead, you’re enjoying you lunch and approaching me with graceful steps.”

Eva’s eyes went up and down, examining her sister from head to toe. Her cheeks scrunched up. “Do you think you are an empress? You want to show off that your life is happy now? Or are you deliberately stalling for time? You don’t like seeing me successfully manage my boutique. You are jealous because I am an independent woman,

unlike you who can only rely on men”

“Save your nonsense. It’s not me who forbade you from entering, but Mr. Harper, the owner of this house. I have no authority to dispute his

orders.”

“Are you sure you don’t have the authority?” Eva raised an eyebrow. “I think with a little persuasion, you can control him. He must be happy to make your wishes come true. Look, he even gave you two personal bodyguards. And judging from your haughty behavior, you must feel like you are the mistress of the house.”

Ava took a deep breath. Her body felt stiff, but she tried not to show it.
