Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin)

Seline's heart filled with glee. The plan would work as long as Suzanne was willing to tag along with her.

She wiped away the tears from her cheeks, then smiled delightfully. "Go ahead and hit me or yell at me all you want, as long as you're willing to forgive me."

The looks in everyone else's eyes softened when they looked at Seline. In low voices, they chattered with one another.noveldrama

"The younger sister looks like she's quite well-tempered."

"Yeah. Even though she made a mistake, she apologized in a good manner." Someone else sighed. "It's Dr. Smith's temper that seems quite..."

Although this person did not complete their sentence, everyone had an idea of what would've been said.

Deep down, Seline was pleased to hear those comments. Surprisingly, she ended up getting an advantage. These aristocrats had ignored her earlier, but they now knew how nice of a person she was.

Suzanne, on the other hand, wasn't bothered by those remarks.

After all, these people were not aware of the truth. They were individuals with agencies. It was up to them to say whatever they wished to.

Right now, Suzanne was more curious about what Seline was planning on doing. She allowed Seline to help her up from the couch.

At this moment, Sirius walked toward them. When he noticed the red wine stains all over Suzanne's dress, he was stunned. He hurried up to her and asked urgently, "What happened? Mr. Fawley happened to allocate a room to me upstairs. Go up to the room and wait while I get someone to bring you a change of clothes."

All of a sudden, Seline felt flustered. If Sirius actually took Suzanne with him, how was she going to proceed with her plan? Sirius was ruining her plan!

Forcing a smile onto her sweet-looking face, she pretended to be awkward while looking at Sirius. "Mr. Jagger, we shouldn't trouble you with something like this. Sue is a woman. This wouldn't be convenient..."

Hadn't she made it obvious enough? What was this man still doing here? He was being such a busybody.

Seline cussed at Sirius over and over silently.

Having extended his hand toward Suzanne earlier, Sirius retracted his hand slowly. Looking at Suzanne and Seline with an apologetic expression on his face, he said, "I'm sorry. I didn't consider that."

His intention was to help Suzanne out so that he could get closer to her. Nonetheless, after what Seline had said, he knew that it wouldn't be good to insist on having Suzanne use his room.

After all, there were so many people around. He would look less gentlemanly if he insisted.

Noticing Seline's flustered reactions, Suzanne was now even more certain that something was up.

Since this was the case, she decided that she would give Seline a push. She would like to see what this woman was actually up to.

So, she glanced at the mess on her

dress.

Seline put a pleasant smile on her face and answered immediately, "Yes, let's go now."

Why was Suzanne rushing her?

She was such a bitch. Seline was determined to teach her a lesson.

By this time, Seline had ushered Suzanne quickly up the stairs.

To everyone else, this was just an interlude that no one had any suspicions about. After all, what could happen between a pair of sisters?

Meanwhile, Cindy was in the crowd, watching all of this happen with a glass of wine in her hands. She lifted the corners of her lips into a cold smirk.

Seline was pretty quick at taking action.

Right after that, she wiped that smirk off her face, turned around, and continued chatting with the people around her.

After arriving at a guest room on the second floor, Seline pushed the door open and looked back at Suzanne With a tinge of regret in her voice, she prompted, "Sue, go on in and wait for me while I get a change of clothes for you. I'm really sorry for what happened tonight."

Her words sounded sincere and full of regret. On the surface, it looked like there

was nothing wrong with what she said.

Deep down, Suzanne scoffed. Could a leopard change its spots?

Without saying anything, Suzanne turned around and walked into the room.
