There weren’t many people around . Just as Lottie was about to speak , a conversation suddenly drifted over from the side .
“ Jorge , are you interested in Trevor’s girlfriend ? ”
“ Interested ? Not quite . But she is rather intriguing . ”
Celeste and Lottie froze . It was Jorge and his friends .
However , they had their backs turned , and a row of drinks blocked most of their view , so they didn’t notice Celeste and Lottie standing nearby .
“ At the auction , I noticed you were also quite taken with that gentle beauty next to Lottie . She’s probably still in the hall – aren’t you going to go say hello ? ”
Celeste hadn’t expected the conversation to suddenly shift to her .
Before she could react , Lottie arched an eyebrow , already thinking about dragging Celeste over to play matchmaker .
But before she could act , Jorge shook his head , sounding uninterested . “ Nah . ”
Lottie paused .
“ Huh ? What’s this ? Lost interest all of a sudden ? ”
“ Yeah . She’s pretty , sure . But she seems so quiet and gentle like she has no personality . That just makes her boring . ”
“ Oh , come on ! And you say you’re not into Wynn ? ”
It was obvious – he had just talked to Wynn and found her even more captivating , making him lose interest in anyone else .
“ That’s not it . It’s just- “ Jorge hesitated .
His friend laughed . “ I get it . Wynn’s your new type now , huh ? But that still proves you’re into her , doesn’t it ? Hahaha ! ”
Before Jorge could reply , his friend added , “ To be fair , Wynn has that cold , haughty beauty . She’s got that challenge , that edge – she’s way more exciting . ”
“ Ever since Wynn showed up in our circle , a lot of guys have been into her – some even obsessed . Too bad , though . She belongs to Trevor . Gotta admit , that man’s got an eye for women . ”
Lottie’s smile stiffened .
Then , her expression darkened . She wanted to march over and teach those two à lesson , but Celeste stopped her . Celeste shook her head and said calmly , “ It’s fine . ” Maybe she wasn’t special . Maybe she wasn’t exciting .
But she was herself . She knew who she was , and whether strangers liked her or not wasn’t something that mattered to her .
After finishing their drinks , Jorge and his friends left .
Lottie was still fuming . “ I used to think Jorge had great taste and a fun personality , but even he’s fallen for Wynn ?

Before Celeste could respond , a sleazy – looking man swaggered over . His puffy , tired eyes roamed over Celeste with an unmistakable leer . “ Lottie , is this your friend- ”
Before he could finish his sentence , Lottie cut him off coldly . “ You ? Do you think you have a shot at my friend ? What trash . Get lost ! ”
The man’s expression darkened . “ Lottie , you-
Lottie shot him a sharp glare .
The Cruz family wasn’t to be trifled with , and he knew better than to truly provoke her . So , with an ugly expression, he walked away .
Lottie downed a huge gulp of her drink , so angry that her chest ached . “ How many disgusting guys have hit on you tonight ? And why is it that all the high – quality men only go for Wynn ? ”
Celeste gently patted her back to help her calm down .
She thought – because Wynn really was outstanding . But before she could say anything , Lottie’s face suddenly turned cold .
Following her gaze , Celeste turned her head and saw Wynn standing not far away . She was holding two cups of
water .
No one knew when she had arrived , but judging by the smirk on her lips , both Celeste and Lottie could tell she had heard Jorge’s conversation .
As they looked at her , Wynn’s smile deepened .
She didn’t say anything . She just shot Celeste a cold , disdainful glance and then turned and walked away with her drinks .
