Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin) novel Chapter 410

Seline's heart fluttered slightly as she looked at Sirius standing before her with an exceptional posture. She quickly extended her arm to shake hands with him. 

She greeted him, "Nice to meet you. I'm Seline Yates, manager of the design department at Yates Corporation." 

When she looked askance at Suzanne, her eyes glistened with arrogance. 

It was as if she was saying, "See this? This is the benefit of holding a position. I'd be perceived to have much greater value in public." 

This made Suzanne stifle a laugh. To her, Seline was the best at being a clown and an actress. 

Disregarding Seline, Suzanne turned around and took a glass of wine from the wait staff. Coldly, she said, "Please excuse me." 

After that, she walked toward a couch in a corner. 

Sirius could feel that Suzanne wasn't too keen on speaking with him. So, he was quick-witted enough to recognize that he should not continue pestering her. 

He turned his head and took a brief glance at Seline. Without responding to her, he spun around and left. 

Clearly, he was only interested in getting to know Suzanne while Seline meant nothing to him. 

Seline's face twisted with rage. 

Suzanne was such a tramp. The moment she left, these men left too. Seline cussed silently, "You bitch! Just you wait. I'll see if you can still be so smug in a bit!" 

Suzanne got to a couch in a corner and bent down to sit down while holding onto a glass of red wine. Her posture reflected her elegance and relaxedness. 

Even though she was sitting in a dim corner, everyone still had their focus on her. No one could compare to the radiance she had around her. 

Linora Shaw, dressed in an elegant, strapless dress, strutted toward Suzanne. With a friendly smile on her youthful face, she greeted Suzanne in a soft tone, "I've heard lots about you. It's my honor to meet you today." 

Suzanne knew who this woman was. She was Chester Shaw's only daughter and the heiress to the Shaw family. In the past, Chester expressed publicly that he was bringing up Linora to become his heiress. 

As such, most people in their circles respected Linora. Though, that was also because she was capable enough to garner the respect of others. 

Suzanne raised the glass in her hand. Curling her lips into a slight smile, she replied, "It's my honor to meet you too." 

Linora stepped forward, then sat down elegantly next to Suzanne. She chatted casually with her, "I didn't think that you'd be a miracle doctor at such a young age, Ms. Yates. That's amazing."

The Shaw family was in the pharmaceutical business. They monopolized most of the industry, both modern and alternative medicine, in the country. Thus, Suzanne had a rough idea about why Linora was here to speak with her, even though she did not show it. 

With a warm smile on her face, Suzanne replied, "You're too kind, Ms. Shaw." 

Linora scrutinized Suzanne discreetly. Suzanne was a sharp woman, so Linora decided not to test her anymore. Instead, she talked to Suzanne about the recent happenings. 

While they interacted with one another, they would let out joyful laughs from time to time.
