The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

What Axel did left the assistant stunned. His aloof and indifferent attitude made her truly believe that he was just an ordinary customer coming to pick up his clothes.

"Wendy, what are you staring at? Your eyes are glued to him." Regina forcefully pulled Wendy aside.

"Mom! Look at that man... He's so handsome! I've never seen anyone with such a magnificent face!" Wendy exclaimed with innocent excitement.

"Alright, alright. You're the daughter of a wealthy family. Don't act like you've never seen men. Even the most handsome man has only two legs," Regina scolded softly, but she couldn't help glancing at Axel out of the corner of her eye.

He seemed vaguely familiar to her. Besides, she felt his gaze on them was cold and intense, sending a shiver down her spine.

Just as the assistant fretted over how to get rid of these two nuisances, a crisp and sharp sound of high heels echoed from the stairs.

"Are you two done causing trouble?!"

Axel turned toward the voice and saw Roza standing not far away, her complexion pale.

"Mom, that wretched girl is here!" Wendy's eyes brimmed with disgust and hatred upon seeing her stepsister, Roza.
