Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

“Gloria you invited Mrs. Chavez, didn’t you? You’ve been quite close to her lately, righton’s voice was irritating-

Her tone was sarcastic.

Gloria, who was mentioned, immediately denied it. “Oh, come on. What

Chavez recently. Her status is way above mine. We’re the same, don’t you saying? I’ve just been a bit closer to Mrs. so that. I’m just passing on a message.”

The woman next to Gloria was named Eleanore. Her husband was a deputy minister at Betrico’s Ministry of Finance.

She usually couldn’t stand Aurora, who never seemed to age, unlike them even though they were the same age. She once asked if Aurora used any special skincare of makeup while Aurora said it was because of a positive attitude and regular spa visits. She didn’t believe that at all.

This group went to spas often enough. Yet they didn’t get results like Aurora’s. So she thought Aurora must have a secret recipe she was not sharing and keeping to herself. She thought Aurora was very petty.

Almost everyone present was a high-society wife from the upper class of Betrico, but none had a status as prestigious as the Chavez family. Setting aside the achievements of Jase and Clifford, even Jeremiah was far more accomplished than their kids. This disparity left these women feeling uneasy. So they often banded together to gossip and say bad things about Aurora. If anyone became too friendly with Aurora, they would deliberately exclude her.

Eleanore spoke up. “We all know what kind of temper Aurora has, and with Gloria’s personality, there’s no way they could be close. So don’t make baseless assumptions.*

Afew of the women nodded. Gloria was indeed too shy to be close friends with someone like Aurora. As for why Eleanore defended Gloria, it was because Gloria gave her a limited-edition necklace yesterday

Eleanore continued, “I bet Aurora won’t show up. We’ve invited her ten times, and she’d only show up once. With her status, she probably thinks she’s too good for us.”

As soon as she said that, the women in the booth started chatting noisily.

Lucy took a sip of her coffee and found it tasted bland. A perfectly nice private cafe was turned upside down by this group of women. They were chattering like crows, making her ears ring.

She thought, ‘How come I picked this place out of all places? I finally get the chance to meet with Yvette, the whole atmosphere is ruined. Yvette may not want to see me anymore. It’s such a disappointment, Those loud ladies could do nothing but gossip behind people’s backs. If Aurora was here, they wouldn’t be able to say anything”
