Yelena spat sadistically, “It was bought using the money for your wedding gift!”

“You—”

“Let me be honest. Dad didn’t even think about giving you a gift. It was an honor that you replaced me! Be thankful!”

Cordelia bit her lip and shook from rage, but there was nothing she could do. She kept her eyes on Yelena’s triumphant face as the servant politely “asked” her to leave.

“Mr. Z, Ms. Jenner is out.”

“Mm.” Marcus took off his boxing gloves and tossed them aside before he unwrapped the layers of gauze wrapped around his hands. “How’s she doing?”

“Doesn’t look… very good.”

The man frowned.

“Ms. Jenner doesn’t look happy. She’s probably upset with her family. I asked around. The Jenner’s servant said that she didn’t manage to ask for her wedding gift and was insulted by her elder sister.”

Marcus clenched his fists as an icy glint flashed across his eyes.

“How much was her wedding gift supposed to be?”

“$40,000 more or less.”

“How much is the plot of land the Jenners are bidding for worth?”

“$150,000,000.”

Marcus snorted. “Use the plot of land
