If it was up to Edith's old temperament, Miss Hailee would be sitting in the corner of the bathroom with her tears streaming down her face. Fortunately for her, Edith was not so hot-tempered these days. 

Moreover, with Hazel by her side, Edith did not want to scare the little girl with her violent side.

Hailee's words had not hurt Edith.

What Edith was worried about was that Hazel was going to doubt her love towards her. Edith might Hazel's kindergarten teacher and her uncle's girlfriend, but her love for Hazel was not less than a love of a mother to her child.

The two of them had spent a lot of time together. They live in the same house, eat at the same table and sometimes, slept on the same bed. Gradually, their feelings towards each other deepened and Edith would not let anyone bully Hazel.

Her chest heaved up and down as Edith tried to suppress the anger that started to bubble inside of her. The anger gradually faded as Edith felt Hazel's hands clutching against hers. Edith shifted her gaze away from Hailee to Hazel and her gaze softened.

Hailee was only a stranger. Whatever she said should not affect Edith in any way. Since Hazel did not care about Hailee's words, Edith decided to treat Hailee as an invisible man.

Seeing that she was ignored, Hailee grew impatient. She did not expect that Edith would not play along with the script.

What Hailee wanted to do was to enrage Edith and let Edith embarrass herself. Of course, Hailee did not come over to such a place alone. Outside the restroom, a few socialites were waiting for her. Hailee wanted Edith to take action and then, she could take the opportunity to shame Edith.

As long as Edith behaved badly in front of others, there was no way that she could join the top society no matter if Neil was backing her.

Hailee stepped aside to block Edith from walking out of the restroom. Her eyes twinkled and her lips turned up into a smile that did not reach her eyes. 

Her Auntie Ruby had brought her over to Mo's villa in Z Town to set her up with Neil. As the young miss of the Ye's family, how can Hailee have never heard of Neil Mo? Almost everyone around their age admired that man and Hailee Ye was one of them.

Although Neil was popular with his reputation as an iceblock, Hailee thought that she did not mind all that. 

She was an ambitious woman. As long as she can be beside an exceptional man like Neil Mo, who cares whether Neil was an iceblock or not. 

Her identity as the young miss of Ye's family would not be able to give her what she wanted. But being with Neil Mo would guarantee her the life she was looking forward to.

"Miss Qian, after we met the other day, I began to look into your background," Hailee giggled. "I hope you would not mind that." 

"I don't mind." Edith tried to walk away with Hazel. No matter what, Hazel was just a little girl and she should not be here to listen to this nonsense.

"We haven't finished talking yet," Hailee said. "

"What do you want from me?" Edith raised a brow.

"Miss Qian, I heard that you are someone with no background. Do you think that someone like you is suitable with Neil Mo?"

Edith laughed. 

This was not the first time someone had told her that she was not suitable for Neil. After hearing these words a few times, Edith no longer cared about them. Neil had told her that she was suitable for him and she will only believe the words from people who she cared about.

"What does that got to do with you? Whether we are suitable or not, Miss Ye, this is something that you, as an unrelated person should not poke your nose into." Edith smiled. In a blink of an eye, her expression shifted and Edith narrowed her eyes and stared at Hailee dangerously."Move aside."

Hailee flinched at Edith's gaze and took a deep breath to calm down. Her hand stretched up to stop Edith from leaving, but before she could touch Edith, Hailee felt her world spun around and suddenly, her head was pushed towards the sink. Her right arm twisted and the pain almost made her cry.

"What are you doing?" Hailee gritted her teeth. "Let go of me!" She tried to scramble around when the pain around her arms intensified. "Help! Someone help—"

"Shut up! If you make another sound, I will make sure that you will lose your voice," Edith whispered closely to her ears so that Hazel would not hear or see anything.

Hailee did not know whether that threat was real, but she grew scared from Edith's tone. Immediately, her lips pursed tightly and she did not dare to make a sound. Her body was pushed forward to the sink bowl, and soon, Hailee heard the sound of the door. When she looked up again, Edith was no longer around.

"That bit—"

"Language!"

Hailee turned around and saw a familiar face sauntered languidly towards her. Her eyes widened as Hailee recognized that woman. The Ye's family might be rich, but there were a lot more reputable families above them. And Zhao's family was one of them.

"Miss Zhao?" Hailee forced a friendly smile. 

Lily walked over to the sink to wash her hands. She glanced at Hailee and chuckled. "So you recognized me."

"Of course I do," Hailee spoke quickly. "Miss Zhao, you don't remember me? I have attended your birthday party in the past."

Lily gave her a look over and snickered. "Sorry, I don't remember you."

The smile on Hailee's lips stiffened. "There were a lot of guests and it has been a long time. Of course, you wouldn't remember."

Lily walked over to dry her hands and then turned to Hailee with her arms crossed over her chest. "Miss Ye, no matter how hard you try, you will never be compatible with Neil Mo. "

Hailee's face turned red with embarrassment, knowing that Lily had overheard her conversation with Edith earlier. However, she was not content to hear Lily's words. Hailee knew that she was beautiful and smart. How can someone like her not compatible with Neil Mo?

"Even though Miss Qian might not come from a reputable family, she got more class than you. Miss Ye, just how low can you get to provoke someone? You tried to use that little girl to achieve what you wanted. Didn't your family taught you that there are some things that you should never do?" Lily gave her a look over and clicked her tongue. "They said that money cannot buy class. I can see that this is true.. At least, I can see that Miss Qian had more class than you."
