Chapter 1229

Nyla nodded. "Yeah, go ahead and speak louder if you want-draw everyone's attention. Let's see if Ms. Kinsey yells at me or you."

"You!" Delia's face turned red with anger. She knew all too well that if she ruined tonight's banquet, Emerald would definitely not let her off easy.

Her expression darkened as she realized that and said coldly, "Just wait for it."

With that, she turned and walked away.

A cold glint flickered in Nyla's eyes while watching her leave.

Emerald favored this daughter of hers too much. Otherwise, how could she be so foolish as to think she could threaten Nyla's position?

Nyla picked up a drink and sat down, hoping for a moment of peace. However, she had barely settled in before a man approached, striking up a conversation.

Not in the mood for his obvious flattery, Nyla responded coldly and quickly sent him on his way.

As soon as one man left, another took his place, buzzing around her like a fly. The relentless attention only made her more annoyed.

It seemed that no matter where she was, people would always flock toward something they could benefit from.

After fending off a few more unwanted advances, Nyla decided to get up and head toward the garden.
