Chapter 34

    Darcy sneered. "What''s wrong? No car? Didn''t thepany arrange one for you?"


    She mocked them financially and poked fun at their low standing within thepany.


    Zara nced over and remarked, "Darcy, don''t say that. They''re both neers, so it''s normal for them to have less favorable treatment.


    "Teddy, Jamie, don''t take it to heart. That''s just her personality. Things will get better once you both have some work under your belt.


    "But it will be a bit troublesome today since we''re not going to the same ce, and we can''t take you with us."


    Teddy listened to her words while looking at her pure and captivating demeanor, but he felt something was off.


    He couldn''t quite put his finger on it, so he replied casually, "Things will definitely get better in the future."


    Dorian''s gaze fell on L, hoping she would ask for help.


    "Thank you for your concern, Ms. Hayes. We can just take a taxi," Jamie said with


    a smile, her cute face appearing innocent.


    Zara was taken aback. She forced a smile in response.


    "No need, I''ll drive," L interrupted Jamie, who was already pulling out her phone.


    Seeing her surprised expression, L waved the car keys in front of her.


    "You can afford a car? What kind of junk did you buy? Bring it over, and let me see!" Darcy''s words dripped with sarcasm.


    She resembled a vicious female antagonist straight out of a storybook, ready to stir up trouble at any moment.


    "What do you mean junk? It''s Ms. Hart''s right to buy whatever she wants. The way you talk, it''s as if you''re rich enough to drive a car worth hundreds of millions! Why don''t you bring your car over?" Jamie snapped back, unable to hold her tongue any longer.


    She was usually quiet and gentle, but today she was here arguing.


    L and Teddy looked at her in astonishment, their eyes fixed on her.


    Dorian''s gaze shifted to her, and then back to L. He wanted to pull L close, fearing she might pick up more bad habits.


    "You!" Darcy gritted her teeth. Did she not know who her cousin was?


    "Who hasn''t seen my brother''s car?" She pointed at Dorian, brimming with pride.


    Jamie wasn''t impressed. "What does that have to do with you? At least Ms. Hart''s car belongs to her!"


    Darcy nearly exploded in anger.


    She pointed dramatically at L, her long red nails adorned with rhinestones nearly poking L in the face. "If you want to get back together with my brother, keep yourpdog under control!"


    Then she dashed back to Dorian''s side, pouting and whining as sheined, "Dorian, look at L. She''spletely out of control now."


    He shot Darcy a cold nce and said to the group, "Where are you all going? I''ll drive you."


    Zara clenched her fists tightly upon hearing this. Her nails dug painfully into her palm, almost bringing tears to her eyes.


    What was going on?


    Darcy widened her eyes in disbelief. "Dorian, didn''t you see her bullying me?" Jamie and Teddy exchanged looks of surprise. Weren''t Dorian and L at odds?


    Darcy, with her witch-like makeup, had been bullying L all along, and he never stepped in to help.


    But now he was offering to drive them?


    All eyes turned to L.


    She lifted her gaze and noticed that the two women next to Dorian were biting their lips, looking as if they wanted to say something but were holding back.


    With a light smile, she patted the ck car parked nearby. "Thank you, but there''s no need. This is my car."


    Her slightly raised brows and yful demeanor drew people''s gaze irresistibly.


    Teddy was struck again by her beauty. He pressed his hand to his chest. They were supposed to be the artists here. Wasn''t it a bit excessive for the manager to be this good-looking?


    "L, if you''re going to brag, at least know your limits. Do you even know how much this car costs?" Darcy tried to keep her tone calm, but the sarcasm in her voice was undeniable.


    She was just a manager. How could she possibly afford a car worth over two million?


    What a joke! Even pretending to be wealthy had its limits!
