Soon enough, she finally approached Lucinda.
Eleanor held a glass to Lucinda and said in a calm voice, “Lucinda, I think you are a very generous person. You will forget about the small quarrel we just had, won’t you?”
Lucinda picked up a glass of red wine and also looked at Eleanor with a smile on her red lips.
“Miss Turner, sadly, you’re mistaken about me. I’m the type of person who holds grudges. Even for the smallest grievance, I never fail to seek revenge.”
The smile on Eleanor’s face faded for a second, but then she quickly covered it up with an even brighter smile and went close to Lucinda’s ear.
Anyone watching them would think they got along just fine.
“I’m sure you felt terrible when you heard about my engagement to Nate, right? I mean, it must not have been easy to suffer so much in the Roberts family for three years, only to leave in dejection. I feel bad for you.”
Eleanor smiled, but they both knew what that smile meant.
Lucinda tilted her head slightly and raised her eyebrows as if surprised.
“I’m sorry, but I didn’t see any Love between you and Mr. Roberts. I thought it was only your eyesight that was poor. Since you can’t tell a fake dress from an authentic one, you might have chosen the wrong boyfriend too.”
The smile on Eleanor’s face froze as she recalled how she had made a fool of herself earlier on.
She was so angry that she clenched the stem of the glass in a tight grip. She looked at Lucinda and hissed.
“Don’t be so complacent, Lucinda. You’ve not won yet, and in any case, even if you do, I won’t let you off the hook so easily.”
She was smiling as she threatened Lucinda. No one could have guessed what was going on.
Lucinda raised her eyebrows lazily and rolled her eyes.

“I’ll be here, waiting for what you can do. Before that though, there’s something I want to share with you.”
Eleanor took a step back and gave her a suspicious look.
“What?”
To others watching, it looked like they had just finished whispering to each other.
Lucinda opened her phone and turned the screen for Eleanor to see.
She smiled innocently and asked, “Tell me, what do you think about it?”
“You!”
Eleanor couldn’t keep her anger in check after that last draw.
The bitch!
