The Jilted Heiress' Return To The High Life

Chapter 350:

Humiliation and rage burned through Rita’s veins as she challenged, “Who exactly are you insulting?”

“Why, you, of course,” Corrine responded, her previously gentle demeanor crystallizing into ice as mockery danced across her features.

“Though perhaps, Miss Ashton, you’d better comprehend a physical lesson rather than verbal wisdom?”

Noting the hardening of her expression, Nate bent down to press his lips softly against her temple.

“Why devote any attention to her?”

“Because you’re impossibly magnetic to women!” Corrine declared, turning away with practiced elegance.

Nate found himself momentarily stunned. The unpredictable nature of feminine emotions never ceased to amaze him. An indulgent smile graced his features as he swiftly pursued Corrine, enveloping her in his embrace.

Rita remained paralyzed, watching their departure as her nails carved crescents into her palms. Bitter thoughts swirled through her mind. How had fortune favored Corrine so generously? After departing from the Ashton family, she hadn’t descended into disgrace but instead appeared more liberated than ever. Now, she had secured the affections of a billionaire.
