Steland.
Alexia had just cut a bunch of fresh flowers and was about to replace Benedict’s room with a new one when the servant said there was a visitor looking for her.
“What kind of person is it?” Alexia asked as she walked, and the servant said, “She’s from Kurima, her name is Lena.”
“Lena?” Alexia remembered who she was. She used to be the queen of the entertainment industry, but later married into a wealthy family and retired.
Alexia knew Lena not only because she had been in the entertainment industry, but also because they had been high school classmates. Both beautiful, their relationship in school wasn’t great, especially since Alexia was softer in character and tended to avoid Lena.
After walking a few steps, Alexia saw the low-key and elegant middle-aged woman, and greeted her with a smile, “Alexia, long time no see.”
“Lena? It’s been a long time indeed,” Alexia said, not unhappy but feeling a sudden sense of foreboding.
Lena used to be quite a formidable character.
“Come in for some tea.” Alexia invited her in and asked softly, “After so many years without contact, why have you suddenly come? I almost thought I was seeing things!”
“Alexia, I didn’t expect it to be you either.” Lena had her people check Ranita’s background and unexpectedly found the Steland Stuart family.
Especially after seeing Alexia’s name, Lena was even more surprised, never expecting such a connection.
Alexia’s daughter and Lena’s daughter were competing for the same man.
“I heard you married into Steland, but we never had the chance to meet. How have you been lately?”
Lena’s face was bright with smiles, but there was a cold gleam in her eyes.
Alexia was a bit puzzled and felt uncomfortable. “Lena, what brings you to me?”
When they were in high school together, although Alexia wasn’t the school beauty, her good personality and grades made her well-liked. Lena, on the other hand, was jealous and always opposed her.
Fortunately, they separated completely after going to university. Alexia graduated successfully and found happiness in love and family.
“I did come to see you for something.” Lena paused, then said, “I just didn’t expect you to be related to Ranita.”
Speaking of Ranita, Alexia immediately became nervous. “Ranita? Do you know Ranita?”
“Of course I do!” Lena smiled lightly, but it made Alexia very uncomfortable. She said, “This goes back many years ago…”
“Take a look at this?” Lena handed a document to Alexia, who took it with confusion and quickly browsed through it, her expression growing uglier by the moment.
“How is this possible!” Alexia couldn’t believe it. “Ranita wouldn’t do such a thing.”
“We taught her the bottom line since she was young, she would never do such a thing.”
Alexia handed the document back to Lena. “Lena, please leave! I know my own daughter very well. Please don’t make up stories.”
“Make up stories? Alexia, after all these years, how can you still be so naive and cute?” Lena’s tone was displeased. “If you don’t believe it, just look it up online.”
“Because of Ranita’s interference in my daughter’s relationship, she developed depression and has been hospitalized several times. I’ve talked to your daughter about it, but she refuses to compromise, so I hope to discuss it with you and ask you to talk to her about this matter.”
