Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon novel Chapter 499

“It’s my own recipe,” Effie said with a gentle smile. “It works pretty well. Try it on a small area first—if you like it, keep using it. If it doesn’t suit you, just toss it.”

Fidelia let out a little gasp, her face lighting up with surprise. “Wow, I had no idea you were this talented! I can’t believe you actually made this yourself.”

Before Effie could reply, a mocking voice cut through the conversation.

“What’s so impressive about that? With the internet these days, everyone acts like an expert. Watch a few videos, skim some so-called ancient remedies, and suddenly everyone’s got a ‘secret formula.’ Who knows what’s actually in it? You put that on your face or drink it down, and only they know what’ll happen. Seriously, you’d better be careful. Don’t just put random stuff on your skin—if your face breaks out, it’ll be too late to regret it.”

Annoyed, Fidelia turned to see Suzan—and trailing behind her, Mitchell.

Fidelia shot Suzan a glare. “Seriously? What’s wrong with you? We’re having a conversation. Why are you butting in? Whether I use it or not is none of your business.”

Some people just couldn’t take a hint.

Clearly, the lesson Suzan got at the crafts store last time hadn’t been harsh enough.

Judging by her attitude, Suzan probably didn’t even care about these little trinkets; she was likely buying them for that same snarky kid who’d mocked Fidelia before.

“Can’t get attention elsewhere, so you come looking for it here, huh?” Fidelia snorted.

Suzan’s expression shifted instantly—she understood exactly what Fidelia meant.

If Mitchell found out about that humiliating incident, who knew what he’d think of her?

Suzan shot a nervous glance at Mitchell, but he was busy scrolling through his phone, seemingly oblivious to the drama unfolding beside him.

Suzan let out a quiet sigh of relief, then snapped at Fidelia, “I was just trying to help. Some people really don’t appreciate it.”

“Oh, you’re suddenly so thoughtful?” Fidelia said, raising an eyebrow.
