Chapter 1076 Mocking Tessa

Selena was chilling on a flat rock while Raymond went to the mountain spring to wash the mushrooms he'd picked.

As soon as he left, the other women started rolling their eyes at Selena.

"If you need to be carried, why did you even come on this hike? Do you even know what hiking means? Everyone here has a higher status than you and is more delicate, yet you're the one Raymond carried up here," one woman said. Selena still had a wild fruit in her hand, which Raymond had picked halfway up, saying the tree bore fruit every year and it was a stroke of luck to get one.

She tossed the fruit in her hand and looked at the woman who had spoken. "If you're jealous that Raymond carried me, why don't you ask him to carry you later?"

The woman was furious, but when she saw the last group of people arriving, she sneered. "Ms. Smith isn't feeling well and walked up here by herself. When Raymond gets tired of you, let's see which man will tolerate your pretentious ways." Selena was about to retort, but the other women joined in the mockery.

"Exactly, you really think you're Raymond's wife. When he dumps you, you won't even get to see us. What's with the arrogance?"

"A woman should rely on herself."

They tried to elevate themselves by belittling Selena, aiming to portray themselves as independent and strong. Society had always been evolving. In the past, pretending to be innocent was popular; the more innocent a woman appeared, the more she was favored. But in recent years, there had been a call for women to be independent and strong, not relying on men.

However, some have misunderstood independence and strength as elevating themselves by putting other women down. What kind of strength was that?
