In reality, she had even less contact with Zoc; she had seen her even fewer times than she had seen Nicole. She didn’t know why Zoe was being so forward in greeting her now.

“You’re here already?

Come on, join us.”

Zoe invited her.

Lucille had heard about Zoe before. Unlike Nicole, she was feisty and straightforward. David was a little afraid of her; he was even a henpecked husband.

Seeing her hesitate, Zoe reached out a hand to her. “Come on, Cedrick will be here soon. We should all stick together.”

Lucille was a bit uncomfortable with Zoe’s sudden warmth. Besides, she and the people from Cedrick’s company were no longer on the same side.

She didn’t want to join them, but just then, Maricela had to step forward and say, “Zoe…”

“Don’t call me ‘sis,‘ I’m younger than you!”

Zoe bluntly cut Maricela off.

This was clearly someone who wouldn’t take any crap.

Then again, Maricela, David, and Harlan were all classmates, and Zoe and Nicole were indeed younger than her. It was a mystery how she could bring herself to call them ‘sis‘. Calling this one ‘sis‘ and that one ‘sis‘–she might be the darling of those players, but no one else was obligated to

dote on her.

Maricela’s face went pale, and her eyes turned red. She looked completely wronged.

Zoe couldn’t stand it and immediately shot back, “This isn’t the time or place for your petty act. I don’t care if you embarrass yourself, but don’t you drag the rest of us down with you!”

With Zoe’s temper flaring, David didn’t dare say a word and just stood there quietly. Nicole pretended she hadn’t heard a thing, completely unfazed. Only Harlan looked like he was about to blow up.

“David, get your wife under control!”

Harlan was not pleased.

Zoe got even angrier, turning on Harlan. “What about it?

You run around managing everything, including that vixen, and now you want to manage someone else’s wife?

What I do is none of your damn business!”

Lucille was trying so hard not to laugh…

How had she gone all these years without realizing what a character Zoe was?

Seriously, what did those two scumbags Harlan and David do to deserve marrying such great

women…

And just like that, Maricela’s unshed tears were scolded right back into her

eyes.

Harlan was the only one who had a problem with it, but he couldn’t exactly start a shouting match with his buddy’s wife here. He was a vice president, after all. He had to save face…

But Maricela wouldn’t give up. The tears wouldn’t come, but she had to say something nasty. So, with a look that was both hurt and sincere, she said, “I’m sorry, sister–in–law. Calling you that can’t be wrong, can it…”

“Hold it.

་་

Zoe shot back, turning to David. “Did your dad have an illegitimate daughter I don’t know about?”

David’s head was spinning. “For God’s sake, what are you saying?”
