Chapter 151 - Used trash (1/2)

The next morning was already a good start for Lena. The sun was not even up yet and news already exploded with major headlines about Mayor Bai. Many news were publishing articles about his corruption with his charity funds, using them for personal use instead of his campaign. They also said that he had been using the people's tax and transferring them to his own person offshore account.

Lena smiled as she read the articles. There was not much evidence yet but accusations. However, the PR department of the Mayor has not responded yet to the public. They had not made a comment on the news.

Lena knew that this was probably Kris' doing. She should up her game too. She hopped off her bed and got ready for the morning. James would not be picking her up today because she was going to go poke a baby dragon today.

Instead of her usual work pants today, she put on a sleek black skirt with a light blue blouse. She let hair loose and pretty the rest of herself. She made sure to have the box of rings with her as she drove to Eva's apartment.

Noah had given her Eva's address the night before and he hacked into the apartment security to make sure that Eva was still home.

She drove to the apartment building. It was a nice area, but not as great as hers. She walked up and went up to the elevator. As she stood outside the apartment door, she took out a small mirror and made sure she was looking perfect before going in.

Lena finally knocked on the door. After a few times, Eva opened the door.

”Lena?”

”Hey. Can I come in?”

Eva looked at Lena and she was dressed so well early in the morning. As for her, she had just woken up and was still in pajamas. ”Ah yeah... sure I guess.”

She opened the door to let Lena in. Lena walked in and looked around the area. ”So this is where you live now?”

”Yeah.” Eva closed the door. ”What are you here for?”

Lena sat on the sofa without even waiting for Eva to say so. ”Your rings are done and I wanted to personally deliver them to you. It will save you the time to pick them up later.”

Eva sat down by Lena and took the box from her. She opened it. ”You... you were the one to have Andy change his designs, right?”

”Yeah, it was me.”

Eva angrily stared at Lena. ”You have no rights to interfere with it.”

”No right? I am the designer, I only make suggestions. It was his choice to choose mine over yours.”

Eva was shocked at what Lena said. ”You think that I don't know what is better for us?”

”Actually, I do. No woman would make a man wear such an over-decorated ring just to match her wife's... he is a businessman, not something you can dress to impress.”

Eva was short of words. ”You... you still love him don't you?!”

”So you finally can still see that?” Lena smirked.

Eva put the rings on the table. ”You told Andy that you were over him, but you were lying?!”

”Lying? You are the real hypocrite here, don't start blaming me. I once asked you to stay away from Andy and you promised to. And yet, here you are... right next to him. Is that not a lie?”

”You think Andy would accept you again?” Eva raised her voice.

Lena stood up as a gesture that she was leaving. She laughed. ”You're a little confident there, aren't you? As far as I remember, you also did the same thing when I was engaged. Anything can happen.”

Eva stood up and tilt her head to look at Lena. Eva was a bit smaller than her. ”You think I would let Andy go as easy as you did?”

”Ahahhahhh....” Lena laughed and then smirked. ”I didn't leave him, he left me. And he can easily leave you too.”

Lena walked to the door and opened it. Eva followed her out. Lena turned and look at the distraught woman. ”Ah... Andy must have not told you yet, but we are having dinner tonight. Just the two of us. He personally invited me. You must have not entertained him well enough at night...”

”You!!”

Lena took a step forward and looked down on Eva like a small animal. She grabbed Eva's hand. ”Don't you worry, Mei-mei. I'll entertain him very well, after all, I am not used trash.” Lena gave her another victory smile and left as she closed the door on Eva's face.

Eva's legs went weak and she fell to the carpeted floor. 'Used trash... she called me used trash. She could not know, right? She won't tell Andy, right? No... she will because--'
