Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 93

I was eyeing Catherine, waiting for her to spill the beans on the message she had sent, which had sent Hazel into a frenzy, looking for her son to such an extent that she had a full-blown argument with Marissa. It was a dramatic case of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship gone sour.

To be honest, I found the whole scenario quite amusing. This was precisely the kind of chaos I had been hoping for. Once the catfight began, the hatred would naturally spread. It was like a soap opera in the making.

When I asked Catherine about it, she didn’t tell me directly and kept me guessing, "Don't you check the group chat?"

"Which group chat?" I asked, confused.

Catherine rolled her eyes, "The one we joined during the last social gathering, the one filled with rich, high-society ladies! That chat group is a gold mine, you should keep an eye on it. It's full of juicy gossip and potential opportunities to seize."

I immediately grasped the significance of that group chat.

Catherine chuckled, flashing her pearly whites, "I just dropped a message in the group: The Starry Night of the Green Mango Awards will be held on a cruise ship, with entry tickets starting at fifty thousand. All the high-end ladies in the state are scrambling for them, and they're almost sold out. It's an exclusive gathering of the cream of the crop of the wealthy!"

I burst out laughing, "You truly understand Hazel. No wonder she's so anxious, not even caring about her well-behaved grandson. It's all because Marissa got in her way. The Green Mango Oscar Awards...you're quite the storyteller!"

Catherine quickly defended herself, "It's a real event! These ceremonies rely on the sponsorships of these wealthy ladies. So, the fifty-thousand entry ticket is just pocket change for them. The most exclusive ones even go into hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they're all sold out. I just used it as bait."

I absolutely believed her. After all, Catherine was an insider, she knew the ins and outs of this circle.

"Allie, remember, do not view the world through rose-tinted glasses. Being kind-hearted is good, but you need to know your limits. Preaching kindness to a bunch of devils makes you a fool, and you'll be the one to meet an untimely end. It's survival of the fittest, understand?"

"Let's begin their journey to ruin then!" I stated, steeling myself.

"What's your next move?" Catherine asked, her tone serious.

"Now that the mess in his family has been stir up, we can't just sit around waiting." I said confidently, "I want to... short sell Medsafe Liyah Inc.!"
