She was not one of the socialites of A City, but she could afford to buy items from such an expensive brand. It was either she was a vain white-collar employee, or she had a sugar daddy.

She looked at Luca's exquisite face. This woman was hanging out with Nina. Madam Mallory simply categorized Luca as someone in the latter category.

“Ms. Nina, I didn't expect to see you here." Madam Mallory pulled her gaze away and it fell on Nina. She curled the corners of her mouth. It looked like she was smiling, but her smile was insincere.

"Such a coincidence, Madam Mallory." Nina forced herself to cover up the nervousness and helplessness in her. She pretended to face her calmly.

"How have you been lately?" Madam Mallory continued to ask. She must be living a tough life without her son providing for her. Nevertheless, she still wanted to strike a nerve in her.

This had nothing to do with her generosity. Sometimes, these women only dreamed of marrying a rich man so they could live their lives comfortably. They would forget who they actually were.

When she ran into Nina, the first thing that came into her mind was to walk toward her. She intended to remind her what kind of woman she was.

After all, the marriage between the Mallory and Johnston families was about to be called off. However, even if Percy called off the engagement with Madison, she would never let the woman in front of her have the chance to get back together with Percy again.

Madam Mallory thought of making Nina realize the gap between her and Percy so that Nina would stop thinking of seizing the opportunity to play up to Percy.

"Not really, but I'm pretty sure that my life is better than before." Nina understood that Madam Mallory asked the question to put her down, but she was someone who would tolerate it.

Even though things were not going well in all aspects of life, at least she was free.

Madam Mallory's expression changed when she heard that. Nina was obviously provoking her!

"Nice to hear that. I was worried that you might not be living well after you left my son," said Madam Mallory. Then, she turned to look at Luca. "Who's this?"

"Hello, I'm Nina's friend." Luca took the initiative to answer.

Madam Mallory nodded with a look of despise in her eyes. She looked at the bag beside her. "This brand is pretty amazing, but their products are expensive. I must say that you have good taste."
