DreameNovelChapter 605: Allison met their words with a cold, scornful stare. "I can't believe I didn't see how utterly shameless you two could be before now," she scoffed.
Lindy's face contorted with anger. As someone who prided herself on her high-society status, she found that Allison's words were especially hard to swallow. "Allison, you're stepping way out of line here," she seethed. "But no matter how arrogant you get, you don't own Sunset Hill.” Hearing this, Rebecca cast a withering look at Lindy, eyeing her from head to toe with open disdain. Her smile carried a mocking edge that made Lindy visibly squirm.

Addressing her directly, Rebecca added, “Isn't that right, Mrs. Stevens?" Any underhanded schemes or supposed cleverness were utterly powerless against true wealth and influence.
Lindy fumed, clenching her fists. "You!" she spat, though she knew better than to challenge the Green family outright. With a bitter look, she swallowed her pride and waited for someone else to put them in their place.
Rebecca, brimming with pride, leaned on Allison's shoulder with a smirk. "So, how'd I do with my little insults, sweetheart?" Allison couldn't help but smile. "Just as fierce as ever." Rebecca was clearly pleased. "Of course, I have zero tolerance for bitches!" The whole scene only served to fuel Melany's jealousy. She'd navigated high society for years but had rarely crossed paths with anyone of Rebecca's caliber. The women she had interacted with were always distant, carrying themselves with an air of superiority. She had spent years bending over backward to win their favor, yet all she ever encountered was a wall of insincerity and shallow politeness. And when Colton faced trouble, her so- called friends abandoned her without a second thought.
Being built up and then torn down was a common gin their world. But Allison, it seemed, had all the luck. With Kellan's loyalty and Rebecca's support, she appeared untouchable.
Lindy shared the ssentiment, though she'd been navigating the upper-class circles much longer than Melany. She couldn't resist a cutting remark. "Why can't you take a page out of Allison's book and find a real ally to back you up?" Lindy's disdain was blatant, like a slap, and Melany flushed with embarrassment.
Rebecca, who overheard their exchange, sneered and wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Speople are absolutely delusional about their worth," she scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Anyone who gets mixed up with you is destined for failure." Melany clenched her jaw, her eyes flashing with the urge to retaliate. But for now, she kept her composure, knowing her best chance was to wait for the person in charge of Sunset Hill.

She counted on Darrel's reputation, rumored to be fiercely protective, with a vengeful streak against those who crossed him. After all, Santino, En.
his nephew, had been badly injured. With a little exaggeration, Melany was sure trouble was coming to bite Allison.
