I knew Isabel would update the meal in high-end places on her social media later.
I asked, "Do you think you can spread rumors online without facing consequences?"
Isabel paused, then mocked, "Shouldn't you be in school? Now that you have time to invite me, I guess you've been expelled from school."
I replied, "You stole my boyfriend, pretended to be different men around me, and made me lose my reputation and get expelled from school. Did you achieve your goal?"
Isabel glared at me, her anger barely contained. "Ashley, why do you always take Callum's money to flaunt your generosity while acting like you're helping me? You have a decent job in Tessa's eyes. Of course, I have to take away all these good things."
My job required professionalism, so I kept a low profile.
I treated Isabel as a friend and gave her gifts, but she saw it was me showing off and giving her handouts.
And she always believed these gifts came from Callum's money.
The malice towards women in this world came from all directions.
Wealthy families didn't necessarily need a male heir but could also have a female heir.
