Andres delivered those words without a shred of mercy.
The rejection drained the color from Noelle Sloan's face, shattering her lingering fantasies.
Indignation burned in her eyes.
"Why am I not worthy? I'm a top graduate from a prestigious dual-degree university abroad," she demanded.
Maeve Vance toyed with her phone, her tone unhurried as she chimed in.
"According to your profile, you graduated from Gallis University."
"How did you know that?" Noelle snapped.
"How I know isn't the point," Maeve replied. "The point is that your so-called university is an eighth-rate institution."
"It's what we commonly call a diploma mill."
"If you brought that degree back home to apply for a real corporate job, you wouldn't even make it past HR."
"Instead of obsessing over my man, you should spend that time improving yourself."
"Only when you achieve true excellence will you have the right to stand as someone's rival. Otherwise, you'll only ever be crushed underfoot."
Hearing her call him 'my man' immensely pleased Andres White.
He knew that when it mattered most, Maeve would never let him down.
Moreover, there was something incredibly thrilling and dominant about his wife whenever she confronted someone.
He absolutely loved it!
Her dark secrets exposed, Noelle's face flushed crimson with humiliation.
"Who the hell do you think you are, pointing fingers at me?"
Sofia intervened. "Didn't I just say it? Maeve is my future daughter-in-law."
Sofia felt a wave of disgust knowing she shared a maiden name with Noelle.
How did she end up with such bizarre relatives?
Mrs. Sloan couldn't stand seeing her daughter publicly humiliated.
"Future daughter-in-law? Please. In this day and age, until you've officially signed the papers at city hall, anything can happen."
She looked Maeve up and down.
The more she looked, the more alarmed she felt.
