"Isn't it?"
Cold and arrogant.
Diana Johnson was stunned.
In this circle, many people are two-faced, but direct confrontation is rare. Some matters are understood but not expressed openly. Jerry Yates is not one to pretend, but even if he has dissatisfaction, he wouldn't express it so directly. It's unclear what caused his bias against Nora Scott this time.
"It really is." Nora wasn't annoyed or angry. She bit into an apple slice, lifted her eyelids leisurely, and said, "However, you don't need to worry. When I choose who to create buzz with, your status is not up to par."
Diana: "..."
Jerry: "..."
Anastasia entering through the door: "..."
Each person is more unyielding than the last; the word "courtesy" in social rituals clearly doesn't exist in these two's dictionaries.
Jerry seemed surprised that Nora would respond this way and paused, then glanced at her meaningfully and said coldly, "Hope that's the case."
Nora shrugged.
