Chapter 278

“Did I?” Annabelle faked a smile and then looked at the staff. She asked kindly, “Did I put you in a difficult situation?”

The staff was only doing her job and dared not offend Annabelle. She hurriedly smiled and said, “No, no. However, the dessert for Ms. Lynch and Ms. Pope is the last. Ms. Johnson, can I get another one for you?”

Annabelle was still smiling, but her gaze looked a little aggressive. “But I just want to eat what Ms. Lynch is having.”

When Yvette heard Scarlett call Annabelle “Ms. Johnson,” Yvette was a little confused. Yvette realized that the two should know each other. When Yvette heard what Annabelle said later, Yvette figured out that there was something unusual between those two women.

Although Annabelle did not seem easy to approach, she was actually quite easy to get along with, and she did not like to embarrass others on purpose. Unless someone provoked her, she would settle that resentment sooner or later with her revengeful personality.

Obviously, it could not be the staff of the beauty salon who offended Annabelle, so it could only be Ms. Lynch.

“Ms. Lynch…” Yvette was pondering about the surname. Something seemed to cross her mind suddenly. “Isn’t Harry’s fiancée also from the Lynch family?” she thought.

The staff looked at Annabelle and did not know what to do.

Scarlett said again, “I haven’t touched this yet. If Ms. Johnson doesn’t mind, I’ll give it to her.”

She was saying that to the staff.

The staff calmed down a little. She expressed her gratitude to Scarlett with her eyes. Then, she asked Annabelle carefully, “Ms. Johnson, Ms. Lynch would like to give this to you. Is it okay?”

Annabelle smiled and said, “Thank you then, Ms. Lynch.”

The staff immediately delivered Scarlett’s dessert to Annabelle.

Scarlett asked with a smile, “Ms. Johnson, do you always like to snatch things from others?”

Her tone was gentle without any aggressiveness. No one else could hear anything unusual from her words, but Annabelle and Yvette understood what she meant. She was satirizing Annabelle.
