Chapter 191

“How’s that good luck? They don’t have a dime to do with each other.”

Arabella overheard the whispers around her about Miranda. When she caught wind of the gossip that Miranda had spent three million dollars on a jewelry necklace for Hannah, Arabella was dumbfounded.

That was probably the Lancaster family’s money?

She muttered, pretending to talk to no one in particular, “Spending her foster mom’s hard–earned cash on gifts for others doesn’t even see herself as an outsider, huh?”

“What? Using her foster mom’s money to buy gifts worth three million for someone else?” A voice full of disbelief suddenly piped up next to Arabella.

Turning, Arabella saw a young woman dressed head–to–toe in luxury designer brands, looking about her age but with a fiercely indignant look on her face.

“Spending Ms. Lavinia Lancaster’s money like it’s nothing, huh?” the girl furned. “I thought she was a good person, but turns out she’s just an ungrateful brat.”.

Though Arabella envied the girl’s designer attire, she quickly seized the opportunity to agree and whispered, “Yeah, I can’t stand it either. President Lancaster treats her so well, and she just squanders the money like that.”

The girl huffed, turning on her heel and storming over. Arabella smirked icily. Even the wealthy could be used as pawns by her.

Miranda was watching as the man before her, hands in his pockets and wearing a charming smile, leaned towards her.
