Efren looked down on her with a cold gaze.
This time, Georgia couldn’t simply ignore Efren after the collision. So, she nodded at Efren and planned to bypa*s him and leave.
As they pa*sed each other, Efren suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulling her back to him.
“Have you been drinking?”
Georgia’s b*dy suddenly lost balance, causing her to lean forward uncontrollably. Her nose accidentally collided with Efren’s solid chest, resulting in a slight ache.
The pain ignited a mix of anger and a strange sense of injustice within her.
She struggled to break free from Efren’s grasp and shouted, “Mind your own business! You’re not someone special to me!”
Her words seemed to trigger something in Efren.
His demeanor turned even colder, and his tone matched it.
“Indeed, I’m not anyone special to you.”

Georgia briskly walked towards her room, and Efren didn’t persist in bothering her.
After all, they had no connection, and he had no say over her.
He stood there for a moment, smoking two cigarettes before finally returning to his room.
In his room, Robert said, “Mr. Burns hit the jackpot today. The girl he had dinner with, who came from out of town, is stunning.”
“Really? Is she prettier than Susan?” Another person chimed in.
Susan was brought along by Efren, seemingly acting the hostess. But everyone suspected that Susan was Efren’s lady, so no one dared to make any inappropriate moves.
Instead, they always gave compliments to her.
Hearing others praise her, Susan simply smiled and then glanced at Efren.
Efren was smoking one cigarette after another, appearing extremely disgruntled.
“She has a different style compared to Susan. Susan’s alluring

and sultry, but that girl seems like a well–behaved type.”
Hearing this, another person also spoke up.

At this moment, another person joined in. “What a shame. If that girl falls into Peter’s hands, she’s destined for trouble. Peter loves toying with innocent young girls and has caused several incidents resulting in fatalities.”
However, even though these people discussed the matter, nob*dy thought about stepping in to rescue the young girl.
Even Efren simply continued smoking without intervening.
Susan surreptitiously stole several glances at Efren, but when she noticed he didn’t react at all, she felt a slight relief.
Both Susan and Efren were well aware that the girl being gossiped about by those people was Georgia.
Just a moment ago, while they were pa*sing Georgia in the aisle, Susan immediately recognized Georgia. That’s why Susan intentionally asked Efren a question, making sure that Georgia saw them appearing intimate.
Susan had feelings for Efren, even though nothing significant had happened between them yet. Efren had never expressed any thoughts or feelings towards her.

Nonetheless, Susan believed that she held a special place in Efren’s heart.
There weren’t any other women in Efren’s life, and Susan had always been the one by his side.
Despite the rumors within the Serrano Group suggesting that Efren had someone in his heart, someone he had been waiting for, Susan firmly believed that proximity mattered.
Sooner or later, she would be able to capture Efren’s heart.
However, on that particular day, when she went to Efren’s room as usual, with the intention of tidying up and ironing his clothes, she was taken aback to find a woman lying there…
The woman appeared youthful and beautiful, instantly reminding Susan of the girl rumored to be occupying Efren’s
heart.
So she just put on a show.
She thought that after all those years of being by Efren’s side
and considering her age, she would not allow anyone to come
between her and Efren.
From Susan’s perspective, Efren knew that the girl in Peter’s room was that woman, and yet he took no action.

There were only two possible explanations for this.
Either that girl was not the one who held Efren’s deepest affections, or this so–called sweetheart occupying Efren’s heart wasn’t significant enough to him.
Susan observed Efren as he smoked and enjoyed

conversations with others, and deep down, she believed it was probably the latter…
