Even though Rena was accustomed to witnessing dramatic scenes, this sight still shocked her.
The man swiftly finished, patted Mavis’ head and departed.

Mavis halted Rena. “Can | talk to you for a second?”
The bodyguards swiftly intervened, blocking Mavis’ approach.
Mavis stubbornly gazed at Rena, her eyes filled with jealousy.
Rena seemed to possess everything that Mavis coveted.
After this unsettling encounter, Rena lost all interest in the premiere. She walked to the wash basin and turned on the tap, trying to regain her composure.

Rena met Mavis’ gaze in the reflection.
Lowering her head, Mavis extracted a long, slender cigarette from her handbag and lit it with trembling hand.
Taking a deep drag, she looked at Rena with a malevolent glint in her eyes. “Yes, | was a troubled soul. But is that my fault? | was sold to the mountains. Do you know who my first man was? It was the old man who raised me… Now | finally had a chance to change my fate.

With a faint smile, Rena retorted, “Does your idea of changing fate involve using your looks to entice Waylen, wreck his marriage and become his mistress, and eventually his wife?”

Mavis had hoped to win over Joseph.
