Cecilia had spent some time browsing through Priscilla’s Instagram, which was filled with pictures of Dorothy. Between the motivational quotes, she could discern that Priscilla was unemployed, penniless, and constantly under the thumb of her mother–in–law at home.
While browsing through her Instagram, Cecilia happened to notice a message in the group chat.
“Is everyone free this Sunday? Let’s have a gathering at my place,” said Miranda.
Typically, when Miranda didn’t have to travel abroad for work, she would invite her fellow mom friends over for a gathering at her place. Partly because she was bored, and partly to feed her own vanity.
Miranda had specifically tagged Cecilia when she extended the invitation.
Since she failed at humiliating Cecilia that day, she swore to humiliate her the next day if Cecilia agreed to attend the gathering.
Pricilla was the first to respond to the message: Sure, Ms. Miranda, looking forward to meeting you.
It was already midnight, and Cecilia was up late working on the lyrics. Unexpectedly, Priscilla was also still awake and responded to the message promptly.
The others only sporadically responded about their attendance.
Before Cecilia could reply, Pricilla texted her: Ms. Cecilia, this is a great opportunity! Why not take advantage of it to foster a closer relationship with Miranda?
It was a rare opportunity for Cecilia to meet all the parents from the parents‘ association at once. So, she responded: I will, thank you for the reminder.
She had no intentions to get closer to Miranda.
In the group chat, Cecilia also responded: Okay, see you tomorrow.
After responding, Cecilia made a late–night call to the headquarters of a renowned clothing brand, urging them to air freight a gown over immediately.
Cecilia had given them her measurements, including her height, weight, and body dimensions. She informed them that the dress didn’t need to be custom–made and just needed wearable clothes to be sent over. Money was not an issue,
With the unlimited black card in hand, things went exceptionally smoothly.
Using the same approach, Cecilia managed to purchase the handbag one of the mothers had taken a liking to and also bought some bracelets and jewelry that other mothers had admired but couldn’t acquire.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Cecilia wasn’t trying to please them.
The art of gifting also required a certain finesse. If one started off by giving extravagant gifts, not

only would the recipient not take a liking to you, but they might even see through you.
The following morning, Cecilia dropped Jonathan off at the Sinclair Manor.

Vivian’s eyes lit up when she saw Cecilia’s outfit. “Oh my goodness, this bag is a global limited. edition, with only two in existence! How on earth did you manage to get your hands on one,
Ceci?
“Do you like it?”
Vivian kept nodding repeatedly.
Although she was currently engaged to Zachary and was well–liked by George, she would never ask the Sinclair family for money.
“I’ll give it to you after using it today. Do you mind?” Cecilia asked.
Vivian was deeply touched. “How could I possibly mind? This purse is worth over three million after all, and you’re only using it for a day?” She was confused.
“Yep, I have a use for carrying this purse.”
Seeing that it was getting late, Cecilia decided to leave and got into the car.
Vivian noticed right as Cecilia was leaving that Cecilia’s entire fit was practically making a statement, declaring her wealth.
“Jon, what’s up with your mom today? Did she take the wrong medication?”
As Cecilia’s close friend, Vivian knew her best and was well aware that Cecilia didn’t have a fondness for luxury goods.
Jonathan, too, was clueless, shaking his head in response.
He pondered for a moment, then looked up at Vivian. “Don’t women have those few days?”
Vivian was momentarily stunned, lightly punching Jonathan on the head.
“You’re not allowed to look at all that nonsense on the computer, brat.”
Jonathan was speechless at the reprimand.
The gathering took place in the afternoon, so Cecilia went to invest in the preschool in the morning.
Erwin welcomed her.
Cecilia cut to the chase. “I intend to become the preschool’s largest shareholder. Can you please reach out to the other shareholders? I’m willing to buy their shares at the highest price.”
