Devilish secretary - Chapter 142

Chapter 142: Chapter 142 A drama lover Chapter 142: Chapter 142 A drama lover Sienna, draped in an elegant wine-colored gown, her diamond jewelry sparkling under the golden event lights, sipped her champagne as she scanned the crowd.

Her perfectly styled curls cascaded down her shoulder, her makeup flawless, but none of it could hide the ugliness twisting inside her.

Her sharp cat-like eyes narrowed the moment she spotted Lilith.

There she was hugging Rose.

Sienna’s grip on her glass tightened, her nails digging into her palm.

That little brat!

Her blood boiled as she remembered the day Rose had the audacity to stop her from entering Sebastian’s room.

Her face twisted in frustration.

What was the big deal if she had seen Sebastian shirtless?

He was going to be hers eventually.

She had already pictured it in her head-being his wife, using his black card without a second thought, waking up in his arms, him kissing her senseless every morning.

Her heart raced at the thought, and her lips curled in a smug smirk.

Yes… No matter how much that Lilith thought she belonged beside him, Sienna knew the truth.

Sebby was hers.

And she would make sure of it.

Today, Lilith would finally learn what it felt like to be put in her place.

An orphan like her didn’t belong in high society.

She was nothing but an opportunist, sneaking her way into places she had no right to be.

Sienna’s nails dug into her palm.

“Sienna, what happened?” a voice asked, making her drop her act of fuming rage and replace it with a delicate expression of sadness.

“Nothing, Grandma!” Sienna sighed heavily, looking heartbroken.

“I just saw Rose with Lilith… I don’t know why Rose dislikes me so much… I try so hard to be like a sister to her.” Grandma Bria’s sharp eyes followed Sienna’s gaze, finally landing on Rose and Lilith.

The moment she saw them laughing together, her jaw tightened.

Her wrinkled hands clenched around her cane, her expression twisting in disgust.

“What are those poor, middle-class people doing here?” she sneered, her lips curling.

“Who let them inside?” Sienna placed a gentle hand on Grandma Bria’s arm, pretending to calm her down.

“Grandma, don’t…” Sienna whispered soothingly.

“This is an elite event.

If we make a scene, it will ruin our reputation.” Grandma Bria’s shoulders stiffened, but her rage didn’t subside.

“Then what should we do, child?” she asked bitterly, her voice dripping with venom.

“I don’t like that parentless, uneducated woman here!

Not when she shamelessly seduced my grandson!” Sienna’s lips curled in a secretive smile.

“I have an idea… Don’t worry.” She leaned in, whispering something cunning into Grandma Bria’s ear.

As she finished, a glint of approval flashed in Grandma Bria’s cold, calculating eyes.

Her anger shifted to satisfaction, a cruel smirk appearing on her aged face.

“Ah… Good.

Very good.” she nodded slowly.

“Do the same with Rose,” she added, her voice laced with malicious delight.

“That way, she’ll understand that she still has a lot to learn from you.” Sienna’s smile widened, her eyes sparkling with wicked intent.

“Alright,” she said sweetly, her tone sickeningly sweet, but filled with poison.

*** Ava was initially angry at Lilith for hiding the fact that her boss was her boyfriend, but after a while, she let it go.

She had always suspected it.

Sebastian Carter’s gaze on Lilith had always been different.

It wasn’t really a shock, just a confirmation of what she had already guessed.

So, after being mad for a short while, she moved on, taking selfies with Ethan and even making Nova click a few photos of her.

Nova, on the other hand, was fuming in silence.

Every time Ava posed with Ethan, his jaw clenched.

Why was she taking so many pictures with Ethan?!

He wasn’t bad himself!

He was a catch!

If he became a star, he was sure Ava would be the one begging to take selfies with him.

Meanwhile, Ethan, enjoying the attention, smirked and turned towards Lilith.

“Hey, Lilith!

Look how famous I am!” he said smugly, flashing his most charming grin.

“It’s just you and my dear brother who are living under a rock!” However… He was royally ignored.

Lilith and Rose weren’t even listening to him.

The two were deep in conversation, their expressions serious, but Rose’s eyes were sparkling with excitement.

She was grinning like she had just discovered a secret.

Ethan stared at them.

“…Hello?” he tried again, waving his hand.

Still ignored.

Ethan pouted.

“Unbelievable…” he muttered to himself, crossing his arms dramatically.

Nova narrowed his eyes at Ethan.

Hah.

That guy deserved to be ignored.

How dare he take so many pictures with his ava?!

The audacity.

So, without warning, Nova stepped forward and shoved Ethan aside, smoothly slipping between them.

“Let’s take some selfies too, Ava,” he said as he snatched the phone from Ethan and thrust it into his hands.

Ethan, caught off guard, blinked.

“Huh?” Before Ava could protest, Nova wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close, his lips brushing against her ear.

“Smile, Ava baby,” he murmured, his voice low and teasing.

Ava’s breath hitched, and she blushed instantly.

Her whole body heated up at the way his fingers pressed lightly on her waist.

Ethan rolled his eyes but took several shots anyway, capturing Nova smiling while Ava looked flustered.

Once satisfied, Nova snatched his phone back, looking pleased with himself.

“Perfect,” he muttered.

Ethan, seeing an opportunity, turned to Lilith and Rose with his signature grin.

“Hey, Lilith!

Little Rose!

Wanna take some pictures?” “Yes!!” Rose jumped excitedly, grabbing Lilith’s hand.

Lilith, amused, just shrugged.

Ethan happily clicked several photos of them, capturing Rose’s bright, innocent smile and Lilith’s elegant yet deadly aura.

But he wasn’t done.

Ethan grinned deviously.

Oh, his dear, dear brother was going to lose it.

Without hesitation, he selected five of the best pictures and quickly typed out a message.

[ Ethan: Look, bro!

Your Lilith is catching everyone’s attention!!

(+5 Photos) ] But that wasn’t all.

To really push his brother’s buttons, he zoomed in and captured a few random guys in the background-all of them sneaking glances at Lilith, some even straight-up ogling her.

Ohh.

His dear brother was going to be so, so mad.

And that thought made Ethan incredibly happy.

What could he say?

He was a born chaos bringer.

A drama lover.

This glamorous life?

It was just perfectly custom-made for him.
