novelEnemys Enemy Was A Friend
| ← Ch.154 | Ch.156 → |
Isabella had a feeling that Vivian must hate Nina at this point. To make her deal with Nina, Isabella stated firmly, "I've known her for two years. How can I not know about her? Miss Ye, Nina is not only a countrywoman, but also an orphan. She doesn't have a family background."
While she spoke, she glanced at Vivian. She had repeatedly reminded Vivian that Nina had no family background, which meant that dealing with her should be easy. However, Vivian's eyes still looked blank. Isabelle sighed once more.
"Everyone in the city knows that you and Mr. Shi are perfect for each other. I didn't expect that Nina would just suddenly appear and marry Mr. Shi. I suppose Mr. Shi was smitten by Nina's face. My mother once told me that if a person is good-looking, they would have a higher chance of success than others. Miss Ye, even you..."
As if realizing what she had just implied, Isabella immediately stopped herself and looked at Vivian apologetically."I'm sorry, Miss Ye. I didn't mean to declare that you are not as beautiful as Nina. I just blurted it out without thinking."
Isabella knew how women could get easily jealous, so she purposely said those words to irk Vivian and make her hate Nina even more.
N eyes saw Isabella, her warm personality dissipated. Her eyes turned cold.
Jessica considered herself as a person with good taste. When she saw Isabella's ensemble, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Shi." Nervous, Isabella greeted her with a small bow. Her voice was shaky as she spoke. After all, Jessica came from a wealthy family. To get close to her was to get close to power and money.
Smiling gently, Vivian introduced, "Vivian, this is Isabella. Her father is from the Zhang family and her mother from the Fang family. She's my new friend. In fact, you and Isabella should consider each other friend now."
Surprised, Jessica blinked up at her."Friend? What do you mean?"
"Well, Isabella is a good friend of Nina in L University. Now that Nina is your sister-in-law, Isabella should be considered your friend too." With a smile on her face, Vivian's plan was slowly coming together.
She wouldn't just bring Isabella to see Jessica for no reason. Of course, she hoped that Isabella could help her. Therefore, she specifically mentioned Nina to get Jessica's attention.
As expected, Jessica glanced at Isabella a few more times and finally asked, "Are you a friend of Nina?"
