But Lizzy hadn’t anticipated that while working on a separate merger case, Gabriella nonchalantly
included the one she was competing to win, causing her a complete loss of face. This incident caused
Lizzy to develop a deep resentment towards Gabriella.
“Hmph, she brought it upon herself!” Mrs. Lawrence responded coldly.
“What do you mean, skill?” Lizzy sneered, glancing at Rosalynn’s elegant figure illuminated by the light.

Without waiting for Wayne’s answer, he answered himself: “Hilaria’s granddaughter, Gabriella. I just
saw her in person, and she’s… so beautiful it makes me regret getting married too early!”
