Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 502 Conflict

"What are you doing?"

Aster stood there holding a glass of water, staring at them in surprise.

"Don't mind them, just keep moving."

Finally, Aster noticed a short-haired woman of small stature sitting on a nearby chair.

She was none other than Shania Mayton, one of Evelina's assistants.

Shania was also Evelina's second cousin, with an older sister named Jenny Mayton.

Shania stood up from the chair and cast a disdainful look at Aster, who was still holding her water glass.

"Who are you?" Shania asked.

Aster frowned and asked, "Who are you? Who gave you the right to boss people around in Ms. White's lounge? Where are you taking the water dispenser?" Shania let out a cold snort. Her tone was haughty, "I'm Evie's assistant!"

Evie?

Who's Evie?

Aster thought for a moment, then realized she must be talking about Evelina.
