She Flash-Married To His Rival by Harber Venus

At the same time, just as Cynthia was about to look for Moira, she discovered from a close friend that Moira and Barclay had already left the party ten minutes earlier. Were they gone?

They had left so quickly?

Cynthia's mood visibly soured, prompting her friend to inquire, "Cynthia, what's troubling you? You seem rather downcast!"

Cynthia glanced at her friend. "I am a tad disheartened. How could Moira leave so abruptly?"

Her friend raised an eyebrow. "Are you perhaps overly attached to Moira?"

Her friend couldn't resist a reminder, "Hey, Cynthia, it seems like you and Moira might have a bit of a rivalry going on!"

"What rivalry? My family has already cut ties with the Covington family!"

Cynthia's friend hesitated, "Because of Moira?"

"Not entirely."

Cynthia waved her hand dismissively, her friend looking puzzled. "Cynthia, why are you so kind to Moira?"

"She saved my life!"

"But you've already expressed gratitude to her..."

Her friend couldn't recall Cynthia being so "indebted."

Cynthia parted her lips, a thought crossing her mind, before finally pressing them together. "Well, I find Moira to have quite an admirable character. I quite admire her."

"It seems like it's more than just liking her."

You were practically idolizing her!

Of course, being a good friend, I spared Cynthia some dignity with these words. "Just make more plans with her as usual, alright? Come on, cheer up! It's your birthday today. No need to be downcast!" Cynthia smiled at her friend, and then a sudden realization struck her. "Hold on a minute! Why did Moira leave so abruptly? Did something happen?"

Her friend remained silent, feeling frustrated. The entire evening had revolved around Moira. If one didn't know any better, they might have assumed she had saved Cynthia's life

Well, she did.

Her friend could only surmise that Cynthia regarded Moira as a guardian angel from that fateful night. Cynthia had been terrified the water and found herself

With this perspective in mind, her friend felt a twinge less envious. "I overheard Annabelle Logan and Florence Sterling saying unpleasant things to her." Upon hearing this, Cynthia exploded, "Didn't I make it clear that Moira is my honored guest? How dare those two come and cause trouble in front of my guest!" She was furious!

Cynthia swiftly descended the staircase in her high heels, immediately summoning four security guards to escort Annabelle and Florence out of the ballroom. Initially, Annabelle and Florence were quite dissatisfied. "Ms. Hurst, what are you doing?"

Cynthia stared icily at them. "You dare to question my actions? This is my guest, my domain. Do you think you can bully anyone here?"

With that, everyone understood it was all because of Moira.

the Hurst family's hierarchy.

Furthermore, Cynthia had publicly declared Moira as her honored guest on Instagram.

Though she hadn't explicitly warned them against gossiping or sabotaging Moira, any discerning person could grasp her intentions.

Annabelle and Florence felt they hadn't crossed any severe lines, merely engaging in harmless banter.

But Cynthia dismissed their explanations without a second thought, instructing security to usher them out.

Phones were quickly drawn to capture the scene, and the images and videos soon circulated among friends for amusement.

Tonight's party had turned unexpectedly eventful.

After dealing with the two, Cynthia promptly reached for her phone to apologize to Moira via WhatsApp.

As the apology was sent, she suddenly remembered a far more pressing concern.

Would Barclay let her off the hook for her recent streaking incident?
