Chapter 702 Matchmaking

Faye wore a faint smile. “Sorry to have kept you waiting, Nina.”

 
 
 
 
 
 

“I’ve just arrived as well.”

Faye then gestured to Jennifer and Nina to take their seats before introducing them to each other. “Jennifer, this is Nina Yates, the only daughter of Fabian Yates of Yates Group. She’s been studying abroad in Ustrana and only flew back five days ago. Her parents wanted to get her a boyfriend, and they’ve already met up with Carter, so they thought of letting their daughter get to know Carter, too. Since I invited Nina for lunch and so happened to also look for you today, I brought you here with me.”

After saying that, she turned to gaze at Nina. “This lady over here is Jennifer Larson. She’s two years older than you, Nina.”

 

Nina gave Jennifer a curt nod and introduced herself in a soft tone. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Larson. I’m Nina Yates. You may call me Nina.”

A turmoil of emotions rose within Jennifer’s heart. She shot Faye a complicated look, but she could more or less tell Faye’s intent.

At first, Jennifer had thought that Faye was truly sincere with her. Never in a million years had she expected Faye to be scheming. Ever since her video went viral all over the internet, Faye’s attitude toward her did a one-eighty. On the outside, Faye put on a caring countenance; however, Jennifer knew better than anyone that Faye would never accept such a scandalous woman like herself as one of the Scotts.

It was true that Chanaeans were no longer that conservative when it came to sexual relations. Even so, deep down, they were old-fashioned to the core. Sex scandals weren’t seen as a big deal for men, but for women, getting involved in any nudge-nudge, wink-wink rumor alone would be fatal, so much so that it could turn their lives into a living hell, driving them over the edge.

Braving the difficult times, Jennifer had relied on her family’s support and her own adamant resilience in the face of the public. As long as she bolstered her self-confidence and pride, she would never deem any gossipmongering as a threat.
