Life at the Top
Chapter 16
Although Penelope was reluctant to admit so, she knew that comparing Wendy to her would just be like comparing a swan to an ugly duckling.
Overcome with low self-esteem and jealousy, words began spilling out of her mouth uncontrollably.
Wendy was not angered by Penelope’s insults. She simply shook her head. “It can’t be helped. You take pride in sleeping with other men, but do you think all women are like you? I’m sorry, I’m not a woman like that,” she said.
Everyone was immersed in the way Wendy carried herself.
Ever since she appeared, Hugh had been staring at her lustfully.
Even if he were to disregard her angelic beauty, she trumped all his other women with her elegant demeanor.
How could he miss out on a woman like that?
“Well said!”
Hugh, who had already fallen for Wendy’s charms, was the first to shout out supportively.
Penelope’s face paled. She looked at the man beside her in disbelief.
Why was he supporting Wendy Schuler? Could he not see that she was scolding her?
Nevertheless, Hugh did not have the slightest interest in Penelope at all at this moment. He walked over to Wendy with a smile on his face. “Miss, my name is Hugh Lewis. I’m the chairman of Lantern Capital,” he said.
Based on Hugh’s experience, every time he told women his identity, they would show him their prettiest smile and fawn all over him.
However, Wendy did not do so. She took a step back, giving off an imminent sense of isolation. Even the way her brows curved into a frown was breathtakingly gorgeous.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know you. I don’t intend to get to know you either,” she said.
Hugh’s identity clearly meant nothing in front of the daughter of the wealthiest man in the province.
