Sweet Revenge By Nuit Chapter 234

Chapter 234 A Waste of Energy

“Susan, I think it’s better if I don’t tell you,” Ingrid said carefully.

Ingrid had barely started when Susan got angry. If she told Susan everything, it would be terrible.

Ingrid stood up. “By the way, I have something to do at home, so I’ll be leaving first.”

“No.” Susan pulled her back. How could Susan let her leave so easily? “You haven’t finished it yet. I’m curious. Tell me, where did you hear about it? Whom was Simon engaged to?”

The last question was asked hesitantly because Susan didn’t believe it at all.

She had been by Simon’s side for so long. So she knew that Simon barely contacted women. How

could someone who didn’t even have a girlfriend suddenly get engaged? And whom was he engaged

to?

If she heard those words from others, Susan would treat them as a funny joke. But it was Ingrid who

told her those things, so it was different.

Who was Ingrid? She was a member of the Petersen family in New York. Like the Palmer family, the

Petersen family was also one of four big clans in New York. Ingrid was the daughter of the Petersen family, which meant that she could get the news about the rich, and that was what Susan couldn’t

Besides, Ingrid wouldn’t joke about such things.

Ingrid was Susan’s best friend, and she knew how much Susan liked Simon. So how could she possibly joke about something like this?

“Susan, this isn’t necessarily the case. I heard about it from others. Don’t overthink it.” Susan pulled Ingrid to sit down. Ingrid looked up at Susan and pursed her lips with a troubled expression. “Forget it, and just take it as fake news. I was just spouting nonsense. Don’t overthink it.”

“Ingrid.” After Susan managed to let Ingrid sit down, Susan stomped her foot. “How could you hide it from me and watch me get anxious? Don’t care about whether it’s true or not. I have my judgment. Just tell me what you heard. I won’t blame you for anything else.”

Susan was an impatient person. Her irascible temper was known by everyone in the entertainment industry. If she wasn’t famous enough and if she didn’t have an outstanding family background to support her, she would have been cursed badly.

Even so, there would be some rumors about her occasionally. But it was suppressed by her brother, Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Chester Xavier

As Susan heard this half-true news, she became anxious in the dressing room and even chased

away the assistant who came to urge her to film. It was proof enough of her bad temper.

“I only heard a few things,” Ingrid sighed and said helplessly. “Do you know the old man of the Austin family in Boston? He had a birthday party a few days ago.”

Susan nodded subconsciously. But after thinking about it carefully, she quickly shook her head. She didn’t know.

The Xavier family had been doing quite well in the past two years. With the hard work of this

generation, their family business expanded rapidly. What was more, they had a good relationship with the Palmer family. It also brought a boost to their family business. But no matter what, they

were not an old and well-known family. At most, they were just new nobility. So they still couldn’t build ties with those aristocratic clans.

Ingrid patiently explained to Susan, “It’s the Austin family in Boston, the one rumored to be quite mysterious…” But Susan had no patience to listen to her. “You don’t have to explain that. I don’t care about the Austin family. I only care about Simon. Cut the crap. You are spinning out here a little bit. Let’s get to the point.”

Ingrid was stunned.

The corners of Ingrid’s mouth twitched. “I’m just getting to the point. Be patient, okay? It may not

be true. Even if it’s true, it’s just an engagement rather than a marriage. Why are you so anxious?”

“How can I not be anxious? I have been by his side for so long. And I have been cautious enough to keep any woman from approaching him. But you stunned me with a piece of news on his engagement. How do you want me to react? How can I not be anxious?”

Susan said that impatiently. She couldn’t calm down.

The reason why she still waited for Simon before was that Simon had no other women by his side, although Simon had refused her confession so many times. She felt that Simon loved her, but he

didn’t notice it.

Susan could wait patiently until Simon found out about it. But if there was an extra woman, then Susan would have a strong sense of crisis.

“‘That’s true. So when I heard it, I was shocked. I thought you would tell me if you were engaged.”

While nodding her head, Ingrid agreed with what Susan said.

“Go on,” Susan urged anxiously.

“Anyway, it was Marc’s birthday party. And then my eldest uncle took his son to the party. When he came back, he mentioned it. I happened to hear it.” Ingrid couldn’t stand Susan’s frantic appearance and spoke out what she knew directly.

Susan waited for a while. After seeing that Ingrid had no intention of continuing, she blinked her eyes and asked, “Is it over?”

“It’s over.” Ingrid was very natural while shrugging.

“What? Bullshit. Is it over? You still haven’t told me whom he was engaged to. What did your eldest

uncle say?” Susan was anxious because she didn’t hear what she wanted to hear.

She didn’t get the details, and the most important information about Simon’s engagement remained unknown. Susan was impatient.

“My uncle didn’t say much. Since Mr. Palmer is already engaged, the wedding date is probably not far away. He needs to prepare gifts in advance. That was all my uncle said.”

That was what Ingrid eavesdropped on.

Declan told this to his wife in the study. After all, the matter of relationships and preparing gifts should be handed over to a woman. Declan mentioned it to his wife, and Ingrid, who was outside the study, heard it.

She knew how much Susan liked Simon. Susan could die for Simon. When Ingrid heard that Simon was engaged, she immediately came to ask Susan. She once thought that Susan was the one who

engaged Simon. She wanted to ask Susan why Susan didn’t tell her about it. But the result turned out to be different.

When Susan heard the news, she got furious.

“Didn’t he say who the woman was?” Susan asked, unwilling to give up.

Ingrid shook her head. “If he had said it, I wouldn’t have thought that it was you, and I wouldn’t have even come to ask you.”

Susan thought about it and became even more furious.

Regardless of other elements, since these words were spoken by Declan in such a manner, then it was probably the truth.

But until now, Susan didn’t even know who that woman was. In other words, there was going to be a war over the man she loved. But she didn’t even know who her opponent was. How could she not be anxious?

“Don’t worry. If you want to know, why don’t you just ask Simon?” Ingrid wanted to comfort Susan, so she stood up and patted Susan’s shoulder.

“No,” Susan decisively refused.

If this matter was fake, then it was fine. At most, Susan would just treat it as a boring joke. But if it was true, with Simon’s personality, how could he tell Susan about his engagement? Susan would humiliate herself by asking the stupid question.
