The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)

Some of the ladies were envious of Susan's good fortunes, but many were secretly letting out sighs of disappointment. Those ladies who were disappointed had wanted to introduce their sons to Susan and harbored hopes of becoming in-laws with the Limmers.

Sasha could not hold in her annoyance anymore. She slammed down her cutlery and angrily asked, "Sigrith, did Susan tell you that?"

Sasha's outburst shocked everyone into silence, and when Sigrith turned around and saw how grim-looking Sasha was, she was startled too. "Sasha, I...” she stammered, ashen-faced.

It is true that Susan paid a visit to Mdm. Bennett, but it was because of Mr. Louis Limmer. She had no further interactions with Mdm. Bennett after that visit. As for the boyfriend that you were talking about, I think it is another lie. Susan has never told me about such a friend."

Sasha bluntly exposed Sigrith’s lies in front of all her friends. She could not understand why Sigrith had turned into such a big liar, going about spreading rumors and boasting shamelessly.

She wondered if Sigrith did that to break Ian and Susan up, or if she had become vain and wanted to boast about her daughter's achievements to elevate her own social standing.

Within a few minutes, all the ladies left, and only Sasha and Sigrith were left glaring at each other in the empty hall.
