Under the heiress facade

The Chime family even provided Everly with a car and driver, so she no longer had to use public transport. Now, she finally understood why Giselle became a completely different person after returning to the Killian family. Who could resist the luxuries that money could buy? "Everly, it's late. I hope I'm not disturbing you," a young girl in a pink dress said as she got out of the car from the other side. It was Natalie Figueroa, daughter of the Figueroas, one of the top ten prestigious families in Jedburgh.

"Not at all. My parents are very kind. They won't mind. Once my clinic is up and running, you can come over for your treatments directly." Everly smiled.

She knew she was merely a pawn in the Chime family and wasn't truly their daughter. Eventually, the truth would come out. So, after the Chime family acknowledged her identity, she used her identity and her skills in beauty treatment to connect with the rest of the circles. Her goal was to establish more connections and solidify her position.

"Thank you so much." Natalie smiled.

As Everly headed toward the house with Natalie, a familiar voice suddenly called from behind her, "Everly!"

Everly turned around and saw Wayne storming into the courtyard, only to be stopped by two security guards at the entrance. Everly's expression darkened. How dare he come here?

Seeing that Wayne was about to get into a fight with the guards and with Natalie still watching, Everly quickly spoke up, "Security, it's okay. He's my friend."
