Chapter 23 

Nonetheless, Tina’s sneaky departure still drew some attention, with Pearl asking suspiciously, “Mother, do you see that attendant? She looks just like Tina from the back!”

Ellen rolled her eyes without even a glance. “Why would she work as an attendant here? She would never have been able to afford to pay us a million dollars if she didn’t have a patron!”

“That’s true…” Pearl agreed that she must be seeing things then.

“Right now, the only thing you have to worry about is how to find Tina,” Ellen said as she patted Pearl’s hand. “You’re smart and come from a good family-all Tina would amount to is getting a patron in Mr. Langford’s assistant.

Thrilled, Pearl started imagining herself as the daughter-in-law of the most powerful family i n Freesia. “Don’t worry, Mother! I’ll definitely trample Tina beneath my feet!’

Clutching her stomach in pain, Tina, who was under the impression that she only had flesh wounds, remembered that she had also been kicked in the stomach the previous night.
