The atmosphere was laced with tension.

Maintaining her composure, Rena politely greeted them.

Since Harold had just dumped Aline, the woman harbored the most resentment towards Rena. This unexpected encounter was the perfect opportunity for her to humiliate Rena, especially with the presence of the students’ parents.

Aline sauntered over, a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

“Well, well, Rena. What a surprise to see you here! It seems you’re enjoying a comfortable life after resigning. The coffee here is quite expensive, something you can’t afford as easily anymore. After all, your family encountered financial difficulties, so you can’t spend money frivolously like before.”

Rena offered a faint smile, refusing to be provoked. rd

Aline deliberately raised her voice. “Are the rumors on the school forum true?

Did you engage in a relationship with some old rich guy out of vanity?”

A series of collective gasps were heard from the rich ladies behind her.

The ladies’ gazes shifted towards Rena, finally recognizing her innate beauty.

They recalled how Rena used to visit their homes to tutor their children for free—perhaps it was all a ploy to seduce their husbands.

This revelation further tainted their already negative impression of Rena.

Rather than engaging in a heated argument, Rena maintained her composure.

” smiled calmly and responded, “Indeed, I have a boyfriend.”

Aline was taken aback.

She ‘hadn’t expected Rena to admit it so openly. It ‘appeared that Rena had indeed found a wealthy older man and secured financial stability for the rest of her life.

A smug smile spread across Aline’s face as she turned to the ladies and remarked, ‘Everyone has their own aspirations!”

The rich ladies, swayed by Aline’s charm, began praising her and expressing their trust in her ability to teach their children.

“I feel reassured to let Miss Hanson teach my child.”

“The most important thing about a person is their moral integrity.

“It’s obvious that Miss Hanson is a decent person.”

They remarked on her moral character and deemed her a suitable teacher.

Aline reveled in their flattery, relishing the victory of snatching away Rena’s students.

Drawing closer to Rena, Aline whispered in a low voice, “If I were you, I wouldn’t even attend the school reunion. Don’t embarrass yourself.”

Rena’s gaze lowered, a tinge of sadness evident in her voice.
