Jelena gave a playful grin, “So who’s more beautiful, Aurelia or me?”
Fredric stroked his chin thoughtfully, a teasing smile playing on his lips. “Each of you has your own
unique
charms.”
Jelena was stunningly attractive, her allure fiery and seductive, while Aurelia possessed a celestial
beauty, pure and tantalizing in her allure. Two completely different types.
Aurelia chuckled, “Of course, my cousin is more beautiful. She’s gorgeous, while I’m just the girl next
door.”
Jelena had great figure, she’s the perfect girl. Aurelia could only admire, but never rival her.
Jelena ran her fingers through her glossy hair, her eyes sparking with mischief. She was quite
confident about her looks and figure. Walking down the street, she could make even the guys on their
bikes lose focus and crash into lamp posts.
Fredric’s gaze skimmed over her voluptuous figure, a heat stirring in his eyes. “The women I’m
interested in are always one in a million.”
Halfway through their meal, Aurelia excused herself to the restroom. When she returned, she saw from
a distance, Fredric’s hand casually resting on Jelena’s curvy hip.
Jelena didn’t seem to mind at all. Instead, she giggled flirtatiously.
Aurelia was stunned! Could it be that her cousin was involved with Fredric?
She and Leopold had been legally married, but Fredric was a married man with a family. He had no
reason to be responsible for her sister. It was clear he was just toying with her!
She took a couple of deep breaths, trying hard to keep her composure, pretending she had seen
nothing, “Mr. Fredric, do you think my sister has what it takes to be a social media star?”
Fredric squinted his eyes, a smirk playing on his lips. “She’s a gem I discovered. She’s destined to be
the top influencer.”
Jelena flashed a captivating smile.
Nowadays, there are countless self–media personalities. Without a solid team backing them, becoming
popular is almost impossible.
Without him, she’d still be a small blogger, not knowing when she would have her big break.
She raised her glass to clink with his.
Aurelia could clearly sense the underlying tension between the two.
Could it be that Jelena was actually attracted to Fredric? With her assets, she could have her pick of
any bachelor. Why get tangled up with a married man? It was doomed from the start!
At that moment, Fredric excused himself to the restroom.
Jelena took a sip of her wine, lowering her voice, “Ritchie called me yesterday. He asked me to help
him find a nice condo for rent. He and his online friend have been moving at rocket speed. They’ve
only met a few times, and now they’re planning on moving in together.”
Aurelia was taken aback, quickly gathering her thoughts, “Have you met this woman? She’s not a
scammer, is she?”
These days, frauds were rampant, especially those scamming for money or marriage.
“I haven’t met her.” Jelena shrugged. “But according to Ritchie, she works at a big company and makes
a decent income. She was about the same age as Ritchie, probably in a hurry to get married.”
Upon hearing this, Aurelia was relieved, “As long as she’s not a scammer. It’s about time Ritchie
settled
down.”
“His getting married might not necessarily be a good thing.” Jelena swirled her wine glass, “From what I
gather, he plans on buying a house in Elysium, cash down. He’s a parasite, where would he get the
money? Even the most remote areas in Elysium cost a lot. Rahul’s savings along with what his Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
grandparents have, might just be enough for a down payment. But where would the rest come from?”
Aurelia quickly caught her insinuation, “They wouldn’t be thinking of selling the ancestral house, would
they?”
Jelena’s silence was her response.
Aurelia scoffed.
When their brother was sick, Perla absolutely refused to sell the ancestral house. Now that her own
son needed to buy a house, she was eyeing the ancestral house. Outrageous!
“The ground floor of the ancestral house is the most valuable. That’s ours. The third and fourth floors
they own wouldn’t fetch much.”
“Perla has always been envious of your ground floor shop. That’s why she’s been so against selling it.
She probably wants to sell the whole building and then split the money evenly with you.” Jelena
explained.
Aurelia sneered at the thought. The ancestral house was built with sixty grand from her parents and
only three grand from Rahul. And now they wanted to split the sale money evenly? What a pipe
dream!
“Let her dream on.” She snorted, seeing Fredric return, she held her tongue.
