Chapter 2
I was speechless, not knowing who was really being vain.]
The truth would surface sooner or later, it was just a matter of time. So I didn’t respond, and the group chat quieted down]
Besides. I had just returned to the country. My dad told me to keep a low profile and start from the bottom. It wouldn’t be wise to break ties with them too early.[]
At this time, my long time friend Zoey, hearing that I was back, call go out together tomorrow, forgetting about this unpleasant incident.
- me. Ichatted happily with Zoey and made plans to
The next morning. Zoey called me early, saying that the weather was unpredictable today and it might rain heavily, so she had to cancel our plans. We agreed to reschedule.
I readily agreed. Hearing that it might rain, I decided not to go out and instead slept in.]
At ten in the morning. I had just finished washing up and changing clothes when I heard a commotion downstairs. I was bewildered.
I thought I might be hearing things, still not fully awake. But when I went down to the hall, I found it full of people, all of whom were my colleagues from the company.
I asked in confusion: “You… how did you all get here?“]
My colleagues also noticed me.“]
“Annie? Why are you here too? Didn’t Mia not invite you?”
“Annie, you’d better leave quickly. If Mia comes and sees you, she’ll be upset.”
“Some people really have thick skin. She specifically said she didn’t want to invite vain people, yet you still came.”

All my colleagues looked at me with disdain. Clearly, in their minds, my image was now firmly associated with vanity
I was furious: “Who let you in?“]
“You came to my house without my permission. Where are your manners?”
After all, they were colleagues, so I had always maintained basic politeness towards them, even when they said those things about me in the group chat. I didn’t pay much attention to it.
But this was my home. I couldn’t help but be angry when they suddenly showed up here.]
During the period when my dad had sent me to work abroad, the villa had always been empty. I had just returned to the country yesterday and moved into this villa.
Before I went abroad, I clearly remember cleaning the rooms thoroughly before I left. Yesterday, I found not only dust everywhere, but many things had been moved around, and it was a mess everywhere.]]
At the time, I didn’t think much of it, assuming it was my dad, mom, or brother who had occasionally come back
Thinking about it now, it didn’t seem right. My parents are clean people, how could they leave my house in such a
What puzzled me even more was how these people got in. Only my parents knew the password to the door.
mess?
Combining this with Mia’s claim yesterday that she was Mrs. Lewis, Images unfavorable to my dad flashed through my mind. But thinking about my dad’s character, it was impossible… I dismissed the thought.]
At this moment, a contemptuous voice sounded
Mia looked at me disdainfully: I know you’re vain, but I didn’t expect you to be this thick–skinned. I already said I wasn’t inviting you. Can’t you understand human language?”
I frowned: “You really brought all the colleagues over?”
She looked smug: “Yes, what about it? Do I need your permission to bring colleagues to my own home?”
“Get out of here quickly, you’re not welcome.“[]
I really wanted to slap her: “Leave? The one who should leave is you. This is my house, who allowed you to cause trouble here?
“Mia, you’d better be sensible and leave quickly. Otherwise, the consequences will be more than you can bear.“[]
Mia sneered: “Your house? Annie, even at this point, you’re still saying this is your house. You really won’t admit defeat until you see your own coffin. You’re truly shameless.”
“If you don’t leave, I’ll have to force you out.“]
As she spoke, she picked up a broom nearby and made as if to hit me with it
She probably thought I would be scared.
I wasn’t scared, but I was furious.
1let out a cold laugh: “Let’s see if you really have the ability to force me out today.”
The colleagues in the hall, seeing my fierce expression, were all frightened and took several steps back.
Even Mia hadn’t expected me to get so angry. She unconsciously took two steps back as well.
“Annie, you’re going too far. Coming uninvited and causing trouble in someone else’s home, you really have no shame at all.-
“That’s right, I’ve met all kinds of people, but I never thought you were this kind of person. I even wanted to build a good relationship with you. It seems I won’t dare to associate with you in the future.”
“I won’t dare either. What if you come to my house one day and claim it’s yours? Just thinking about it scares me. I’d better stay away from you.”
All the colleagues looked at me with disgust.
My good friend Zoey had arrived at some point and came to my side, looking at me with confusion.
Oper 1
“Annie, who are these people? Why are they in your house and why are they being so aggressive towards you?”
Hearing this, Mia immediately started shouting.
“You even found someone to back you up? Is this a gang operation? Be honest, what’s your purpose?”“]
“Anyone standing with her can’t be a good person. Without a doubt, they’re just as vain as her. That innocent look, if I didn’t know better, I’d really think this was her house.”
Zoey isn’t a gentle person. She looked coldly at Mia: “Where did this crazy woman come from, daring to be so aggressive towards Annie? Be careful, her father might make you regret it.”
Mia wasn’t intimidated. Instead, she mocked: “If you want to protect her, then take her and leave quickly. As for her father, who knows who he is? Don’t tell me he’s your father too?”
The colleagues heard this and burst into laughter.
Seeing Zoey being insulted like this, I could barely contain my anger anymore.[]
“Mia, I’m warning you. You’d better take these people you brought and leave my house right now. Otherwise, I don’t think I need to tell you the consequences of trespassing.”
