"You're so beautiful, you have to seize this opportunity!" Marianne patted Hailey's hand. “That kid from the Cole family screwed us over so badly and then just walked away without a care in the world. He hasn't contacted you once! You need to stop thinking about him."
"This is your stage. As long as you can meet some talented young man here, you won't have to worry about your future!"
Hailey didn't need Marianne to tell her; she understood it herself.
Any man here was better than Adrian!
How could she possibly stick with that loser?
He vanished at the first sign of trouble.
And the entire Cole family...
They were all rotten!
The two families had a marriage agreement, but the moment the Wynn family ran into a little trouble, the Coles couldn't wait to back out.
They even screwed her over so badly.
Before she started using her connection to the Lancaster family's heiress, her father had taken his anger out on her plenty of times!
But now, she was the best friend of the "little princess" of the Lancaster family, the richest family in the city.
As long as she stuck with Isabella, she could get into all sorts of exclusive high- society events.
If any one of Isabella's friends took a liking to her, they would be miles better than Adrian.
All she had to do now was cling to her powerful connection, Isabella, and keep her happy.
Why would she need to worry about the future?
By then, Adrian would probably be groveling at her feet.
The thought of her imminent rise to power, of marrying into a top-tier family and living the good life, excited Hailey.
The thought of never having to be subservient to anyone but Isabella made her heart race.
"Yes, yes! Hailey, you are the hope of the Wynn family now!" Patrick nodded repeatedly, looking at his beautifully dressed and stunning daughter with extreme satisfaction.
Although Serena's face was a rare beauty, his own daughter wasn't bad either!
After all, even with that face and her status as Adrian's fiancée, wasn't Adrian still completely infatuated with Hailey, even willing to break off his engagement with Serena for her?
Men... they preferred Hailey's type.
Sweet, obedient, gentle, and cute.
"Our Hailey is so beautiful. When those talented young men see her, they'll all be mesmerized!” Logan chimed in from the side.
Patrick looked at
at the endless stream
of luxury cars and then at the magnificent, glittering estate before them. He lowered his voice and said, "If you get a chance to see the heir of the Blackwood family laten. Hailey, you go up and offer him a drink. And it would be best if you showed a little more cleavage!"
“Isn't... isn't that a bit much?" Her older brother, Benedict Wynn, looked at Hailey. She was already wearing a white strapless gown that was cut a little lower than usual to accentuate her figure, revealing quite a bit.
If she pulled it down even more, wouldn't that be...
"What do you know? This is called a smart investment!" Patrick shot a look at his eldest son, who only had business on his mind and understood nothing about women. "What men love most is a woman who's willing to be... adventurous for them."
Benedict still felt it was improper. “We only got in here because of Miss Lancaster. Mr. Blackwood is her fiancé. It's not right for us to be thinking like this, is it?"
"The two families aren't officially
engaged, and they haven't made it public. Besides, people can get divorced even after they're married! In these matters, it's every person for themselves! What if the Blackwood heir happens to prefer Hailey's type?"
Patrick glared at him, full of disappointment. "I think all that studying has rotted your brain! All you think about is the company and business. Don't you realize that if your sister can just catch that heir's eye, the partnerships you have to beg for at business immers will come to you? They'll be begging to work with you out of respect for him! That's reality!"
