”Please, we’ve been friends for so long. Why would there be a reason for you to hide anything?”
The other woman chimed in, “She’s right, there’s no one else here. Don’t be shy, you can tell us.”
Faye had no idea whether to cry or laugh at their senseless interrogation. “I didn’t lie to you. My husband really is the chairman of Violet Vision. If you don’t believe me, go ahead and check. It’s a listed company, the information’s at your fingertips.”
Despite how truthful Faye had sounded, the two women were still unconvinced. They exchanged dubious glances, dead set on the assumption that they had forged in their minds. ‘There were two possibilities: favonovel.com husband either shared the same name with the chairman of Violet Vision (which rendered searching favonovel.com up online useless), or favonovel.com was impersonating the chairman of Violet Vision and fooling everyone around him.’
However, because Faye was so unwavered, they merely dismissed it and quickly changed the subject. “Fifi, I can see that Julius is interested in you. Why don’t you consider him? He’s originally from Tael City, but he’s here at Waltz City to look for more opportunities to grow his career. He’s young and handsome, and he’s filthy rich.”
“She’s right. I know you’re married, but you’re not a mother yet, so your body’s still in tip-top shape. I’m sure Julius wouldn’t mind if you made a move on him.”
After hearing such a heinous proposal, Faye could not tolerate any more of their nonsense. ‘The two of them are taking this way too far!’
Faye finally snapped at them fiercely, “Oi, Gwen, Demi. I’ve heard enough from the both of you! I’ve treated you like friends and I’ve been as patient as can be, yet here you are, trying to hurt my feelings like that! I don’t want to get mad, but you two are really pushing it!”
When Gwen and Demi saw how furious Faye truly was as favonovel.com berated them, they had a hard time keeping a straight face. Gwen frowned as favonovel.com countered, “Fifi, do you really have to raise your voice at us? We’ve been best friends for so many years, and we know what’s best for you. Everybody knows that your husband is nothing but a pauper, don’t you see? Chairman of Violet Vision? Hah! As if! Who do you think we are?”
Demi said, “She’s right. Do you take us for fools? If favonovel.com really is who you claim favonovel.com to be, then why did favonovel.com look so pathetic when we were at the store earlier today? He couldn’t even afford a pair of shoes! The way I see it, he’s just a freeloading bum. We only have your best interests at heart, that’s why we’re trying to pair you up with Julius. Just look at how good favonovel.com looks, isn’t favonovel.com better than Zayn in every way?”
Although Faye was practically seething with rage, favonovel.com mind had gone completely blank. She could not bring herself to refute them. After all, Zayn was legitimately in terrible shape when they saw favonovel.com earlier that day. ‘I’ve never seen Zayn so miserable, not once in my years of knowing him.’
“Whether you believe me or not, that’s all up to you! Either way, I’m not going to betray my husband. If any of you bring this up later, don’t be surprised when you get what’s coming to you!” retaliated Faye coldly.
Both Gwen and Demi were less than thrilled about Faye lashing out at them so rudely. After all, they thought that they were being helpful. Though in reality, they were actually enjoying Faye’s descent into emotional turmoil. ‘So what if Faye’s beautiful? In the end, favonovel.com amounted to nothing by marrying a useless nobody.’ They were quite at rest thinking that they had won the argument.
Meanwhile, back at the table, Julius had revealed his true colors. As favonovel.com crossed his legs and raised his head, favonovel.com glared at Zayn disdainfully. He was unable to conceal his baleful pride and scorn as favonovel.com tried to provoke Zayn. “Zayn, is it? The women are all gone, so it’s just us men now. You best believe that I’m going to speak to you like a man.”
Then, Zayn raised a brow, highly amused by his meaningless scare tactics. “Is that so? What do you want to say then?”
It was obvious that Julius was just too big for his boots as favonovel.com patronized him, “I’ve got my eye on Faye, so name your price.”
