Barbara could not maintain her smile for a moment. Then, she quickly revealed a pitiful expression. “Mona, what is she doing?”
Mona saw that they were at the entrance of the university and there were people coming and going. It was not appropriate for her to quarrel with Barbara, so she reached out and pulled Haley back to her side. “It’s fine. Since you’re entering the university, I won’t disturb you, Barbara.”
After saying that, she wanted to pull Haley into the car, but Barbara was a step ahead of her and stood in front of the car. Barbara said hopefully, “Mona, I’m representing the country to participate in the competition in Welintern during Christmas. I heard from Albert that you and Maxwell will go, right?”
“I’ll see by then,” Mona said in an unfriendly tone.
Ever since she was reborn, she did not have any sisterly relationship with Barbara. It was the same for Barbara. The two of them hated each other and wished they could skin each other alive. However, Barbara had been acting sisterly with her in front of others, making Mona especially helpless.
However, the people Barbara cared about all cared about Mona.
When Barbara heard Mona’s tone, tears welled up in her eyes and seemed to fall in the next second.
“Mona, I… I understand. You must come by then. I want to share my honor with you,” Barbara said while suppressing the unhappiness in her heart. She wanted Mona and Maxwell to witness her honor with their own eyes when she represented the honor of the country.
She wanted Mona to see that she was leagues ahead of her in design. In her mind, Mona didn’t even belong in the same league, let alone compare to her. She hoped Maxwell would realize she was the one he should be with, not Mona, and that he’d regret ever considering otherwise.
She wanted everyone to know that Mona didn’t stand a chance against her. After all, she was Bernard’s star granddaughter and the top designer in Nathontown. In her eyes, she was the best designer in the whole damn country.
“I’ve already said that I’ll see. Move aside. I’m going back,” Mona said gloomily.
Every time she rejected Barbara, Barbara would look at her with this aggrieved expression and act like Mona was the bad woman who bullied her.
Barbara looked at the bodyguard beside Mona. Haley even waved her fist at her. Since they were in public, Barbara was a bit timid and moved to the side.
She watched as Mona and her bodyguard drove away.
Barbara thought, ‘Even if I’m busy with the design, I won’t let Mona’s shop run well. Mona, you can just take your time to resolve the plagiarism!‘
It was really unexpected that she met Mona at Nathontown University today. Since Barbara had met Mona, she naturally had to talk about her trip to Welintern.
Barbara’s main purpose in coming there was to buy Teddy a milkshake from the university. She wanted Teddy to remember how much he liked her in university.
Previously, Barbara did not pester Teddy to make up with him because after he took Jeremy’s attack for Mona, he was in a dispirited state during his recuperation period. After he was scolded by Matthew, he was focused on his work. At that time, Barbara was busy dealing with Molly and the others and could not find the time to go to Teddy.
However, things were different now. Barbara did not know how Teddy met a woman who looked 70% like Mona. He kept that

Back then, Teddy wanted to break up with her completely because Mona. Barbara knew that after Teddy and Mona broke up, he regretted it.
But so what if he regretted it? The two of them had been together since high school. Barbara would not let Teddy escape from her.
Now that Powers Group had been handed over to Teddy, and Matthew almost did not care about anything about the group, for Barbara, Teddy was also a good choice.
After Barbara bought a milkshake at Nathontown University, she carried it to Powers Group.
When she was at the reception desk, Barbara was stopped by the receptionist. Her face was red with
anger.
“I’m here to deliver a milkshake to Teddy. It’s his favorite. Miss, please let me in!” Barbara said coquettishly. Her eyes were the best weapon.
Not only would men’s hearts soften when they saw her look, but women were no exception.
“Well, Miss Burton, this is really against the rules. Our president said that no one can enter without an appointment.” The receptionist couldn’t bear to reject Barbara, but she had to abide by their president’s orders.
Barbara frowned and showed the receptionist the photo of her and Teddy. In the photo, Teddy was kissing her cheek, looking exceptionally loving.
“I get to be an exception. I’m really familiar with Teddy, but he’s been angry with me recently. I’m here to appease him.” Barbara made a particularly good reason for herself.
The receptionist looked at the photo Barbara was holding. As she recalled Teddy’s darkened face this morning, she secretly guessed that his girlfriend had angered him.
She thought, ‘If this lady can appease the president, he might even give me a bonus!”
After thinking for a while, she said, “Then go in from the side. I’ll pretend that I didn’t see anything.”
Barbara said, “Thank you, miss. You’re so nice.”
After Barbara left with the milkshake, the receptionist was fantasizing about the president giving her a raise later.
Barbara knew where Teddy’s office was, so she took the elevator up.
It was office hours. Barbara arrived at Teddy’s office very smoothly. No one stopped her and she walked straight to the door. The door was not closed tightly. Barbara wanted to go in and give Teddy a surprise. Without any hesitation, she pushed open the door and shouted excitedly, “Teddy!”
As soon as she entered and saw the scene inside, her expression immediately changed. Tears welled up in her eyes before they could not help but stream down her cheeks. Barbara was stunned.
Inside the office, Teddy was pressing a woman onto the sofa and kissing her. Her clothes were already in a mess, revealing her fair neck. Everything seemed to be filled with passion.
When Elene heard Barbara’s voice, she hurriedly pushed Teddy, who was on top of her, and quickly tidied her clothes.
Teddy looked at Barbara with dissatisfaction. Then, he sat up from Elene and asked Barbara, “Why are you
here?”
His tone was a little impatient. Thinking that it was all because of her that he could not successfully get engaged to Mona, he was angry. Now, no matter what, Mona was no longer his. He only had Mona’s substitute with him every day.

Upon hearing Teddy’s words, Barbara raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face. She raised the milkshake in her hand at Teddy and said with a sobbing tone, “I bought you a milkshake. I thought you liked it, so I brought it over to you.”
Teddy looked at the milkshake in Barbara’s hand and fell into his memories. He never enjoyed milkshakes, but Mona did. Every time she had it, she would bring one for him. At the beginning, he said that it tasted bad and was too sweet for him. Later on, he could get used to the sweetness of the milkshake.
