Chapter 317 The sales assistant by the door paused, her expression a mix of confusion and alarm, before cautiously approaching Sandra.

Miss Sandra, there surely must be some misunderstanding… Before the assistant could insinuate that Elizabeth was the temptress, Sandra had already noticed her.

After throwing a cold glance at Albin, Sandra marched over to Elizabeth.

As she reached her, her tone was laced with delight.

Oh, Elizabeth, what a surprise to see you here of all places! Realizing the two were acquainted, the sales assistants froze in shock.

Even the one who had been slapped kept silent, too afraid to utter another word.

Clearly, if Elizabeth was in Sandras circle, she was either a powerhouse in her own right or closely tied to the elite.

This was not a woman to cross lightly.

The humiliated assistant, her cheek still stinging from the slap, subtly edged back, wishing she could melt into the shadows.

Meanwhile, Albin, clueless about the underlying currents, mistook Sandras outrage for mere theatrics.

He approached, his hands open in a calming gesture.

Honey, wasnt I told to meet you by the cinema entrance? Meet me? With the film already rolling, what exactly am I supposed to be watching now? Without giving him a glance, she scoffed, Or perhaps you were too busy here, entertaining some flirtatious distraction? Albin, visibly distressed by her accusation, countered earnestly, raising his hands in defense.

Honey, you misunderstand! It was only Elizabeth hereI saw she was being troubled, and I felt compelled to intervene.
