Chapter 547 Meeting Violeta

Zelena aimed to win everyone's favor, hoping to build a strong reputation.

She was careful not to inconvenience the staff, and only those who were close to her truly understood her nature.

Evelina shared a lounge with Zelena. Upon arrival, Evelina greeted her with a bright smile.

"Hello, Zelena."

She then seemed to remember something and added, "Perhaps the noise we made earlier disturbed you? I'm truly sorry. This is the only lounge we have, so I'd appreciate your understanding, Ms. Blake."

The implication was clear: since Zelena and Evelina shared the lounge, any discomfort Zelena felt was her own problem.
