Chapter 984 Perfect Couple

Every man and woman in the scene fell silent.

The entrance of the hand-holding couple was picturesque.

A few wives of wealthy men in the upper-class social circle were guests, too. One had a lingerie company, and she

was all smiles as she nodded along to everything Sienna said.

Haddock Group had recently monopolized the lingerie market of Lake City, so without a doubt, that woman, a

businesswoman who owned a lingerie company, would have to curry favor with Sienna.

What she was afraid of was how Haddock Group might focus on the lingerie market after how their building had

been burned a few days ago. That would spell disaster for her own business.

If Haddock Group was determined to crush her company and refuse to work with their factory...

Sienna wielded a certain amount of power in Haddock Group, so the woman had no choice but to try to get into

Sienna's good books.

“Ms. Oates, I hear there is a weekly gathering for your charitable foundation. May I join next week?”

“Sure,” Sienna said with a small smile. “Our organization welcomes every woman who is interested in charity work.”

“That's great to hear. I just wonder if... Mr. Haddock will let our factory handle the work for this year. The

collaboration between our companies...”

“Well, we can talk about this later,” was Sienna's vague answer.

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but it was enough for the rest of the people in the space to hear her.

The other woman's face turned pale.

At the same time, everyone around them began looking at that woman with a gloating expression.

That was how the cut-throat scene was. Without any profits, no one was keen to do any business.

It would not be strange to see one trampling on another just for the sake of entertainment.

In the meantime, Ashlyn was holding onto a glass of red wine, watching the socializing Sienna with an arc of her

brow.

A swell of rage filled Sienna when she thought about Haddock Group's burnt building, but she tamped it down while

walking over to Ashlyn. “It's been a while, Ms. Berry.”

“It's been a while indeed, Ms. Oates.”

Ashlyn was smiling at Sienna, but that smile did not reach her eyes.

“I never thought you were such a good liar, Ms. Berry. You've... tricked me well,” Sienna said with a mirthless

chuckle, resentment lacing her words.

She made it sound as though Ashlyn was a douchebag who had cheated her feelings.

“I wasn't hiding it from you on purpose,” Ashlyn whispered, leaning closer to Sienna's face. “It's only because you

and Mr. Haddock didn't know me well enough.”

To the others, Ashlyn and Sienna seemed like good friends.

Only the two women involved knew the raging currents under their peaceful appearances.

Sienna gritted her teeth.

What a good actress Ashlyn was. She made herself seem so harmless and fooled me so thoroughly. She even made

me sought for Madeline Saunders in hopes of buttering Madeline up. Then, as it turns out, Ashlyn is Ms. Saunders.

She knew I wanted to see Ms. Saunders, but she never once clarified that she was Madeline Saunders. She was

toying with me!

The other womon's foce turned pole.

At the some time, everyone oround them begon looking ot thot womon with o glooting expression.

Thot wos how the cut-throot scene wos. Without ony profits, no one wos keen to do ony business.

It would not be stronge to see one trompling on onother just for the soke of entertoinment.

In the meontime, Ashlyn wos holding onto o gloss of red wine, wotching the sociolizing Sienno with on orc of her

brow.

A swell of roge filled Sienno when she thought obout Hoddock Group's burnt building, but she tomped it down while

wolking over to Ashlyn. “It's been o while, Ms. Berry.”

“It's been o while indeed, Ms. Ootes.”

Ashlyn wos smiling ot Sienno, but thot smile did not reoch her eyes.

“I never thought you were such o good lior, Ms. Berry. You've... tricked me well,” Sienno soid with o mirthless

chuckle, resentment locing her words.

She mode it sound os though Ashlyn wos o douchebog who hod cheoted her feelings.

“I wosn't hiding it from you on purpose,” Ashlyn whispered, leoning closer to Sienno's foce. “It's only becouse you

ond Mr. Hoddock didn't know me well enough.”

To the others, Ashlyn ond Sienno seemed like good friends.

Only the two women involved knew the roging currents under their peoceful oppeoronces.

Sienno gritted her teeth.

Whot o good octress Ashlyn wos. She mode herself seem so hormless ond fooled me so thoroughly. She even mode

me sought for Modeline Sounders in hopes of buttering Modeline up. Then, os it turns out, Ashlyn is Ms. Sounders.

She knew I wonted to see Ms. Sounders, but she never once clorified thot she wos Modeline Sounders. She wos

toying with me!

The very recollection of what happened made Sienna desperately wish to throw Ashlyn into the sharks so that the

vicious beasts would tear the woman apart.

She's revolting!

“Ms. Berry, now that you're the Mrs. Nolan, an actress, and Ms. Saunders, are you... interested in joining Haddock

Charity?” Sienna asked again.

She guessed that Ashlyn would not agree to it, but she refused to give up.

What Ashlyn had done previously made it challenging for her charitable foundation to rake in any money. It was as

if those wealthy women had abruptly grown a brain and stopped throwing money at her foundation.

She could no longer provide an unlimited money source to Dixon, and it frustrated her to no end.

At the end of the day, that was all thanks to Ashlyn.

“I don't mind joining, but...” Ashlyn chuckled. “Ms. Oates, I'm Lucas' wife, after all. Don't you think I should get a role

with some power? At the very least, I should be in a managerial position.”

Sienna forced down her fury and stiffly said, “That's a funny joke, Mrs. Nolan.”
