Chapter 311
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
âIsnât that Lindsey, the woman whoâs been on the trending list?â
âMarried with a child and still mixed up with other men? Doesnât that guy look like the one from the story thatâs been going around, even though we only saw his side?â
âSo was she caught cheating that night?â
âBut this man is so good-looking.
Why would she be unfaithful?â
âWhat if he has nothing but a pretty face?â Shelia sneered at Lindsey and Domenic, adding, âLindseyâs after a man who can help her reach a high position, not some pretty face with no other value.
â
She shot a glance at Domenic as she spoke.
Domenic stood unflustered, his handsome features composed, not even glancing at Shelia.
Shelia felt her efforts were frustrating and ineffective, which made her seething with anger.
âExactly.
â Someone was suddenly enlightened.
âI saw on trending searches that Lindseyâs success is all thanks to her connections.
Who knows how many men she has seduced in secret?â
âShe is such a fickle and snobbish woman.
â
Shelia stood there, her arms crossed confidently.
With Sheliaâs words, someone was bound to take photos and share them online.
Even if Lindsey didnât settle down and start a family, explaining things would be challenging.
Shelia had been laying low for a while, especially after patching things up with Jacob.
She wanted to keep Jacob by her side, so she refrained from causing trouble.
Besides, her previous attempts to hassle Lindsey had backfired.
But now, Shelia felt smarter.
She had been waiting for others like Jayleen and Kristy to give Lindsey a hard time.
And she knew Chayce wouldnât spare Lindsey either.

But today, she saw a chance to tarnish Lindseyâs image, hoping it would soothe her bitterness.
When Shelia was basking in her scheming plan, Elaine emerged from behind Lindsey.
Elaine, gazing at the wildly grinning Shelia, blurted out, âMadam, you are so ugly.
â
A hush fell over the crowd.
Shelia paused briefly and extended a finger, pointing it at herself.
âYouâre talking about me?â
Elaine nodded firmly and said, âMy mom says people with plastic surgery have ugly smiles.
Your smile is really ugly.
â
âWihat?â Sheliaâs exaggerated and unrestrained smile abruptly turned into a frozen expression.
Shelia instinctively reached out to touch her face.
She regularly admired her appearance in the mirror with a satisfied grin, appreciating the results of her cosmetic procedures.
Her smiles had always highlighted her beauty.
How could she possibly see herself as anything less than lovely?
Yet, the honesty in a childâs words often carries weight.
As Elaineâs words sank in, the onlookers began scrutinizing Shelia.
âHer nose seems like itâs had some work done.
â
âI noticed her smile seemed somewhat rigid during the ribbon cutting.
