Chapter 159 

Evelina never thought she’d bump into Lizetta here of all places. The sight of Lizetta looking all cozy with Master Dories sent a flash of jealousy racing through her eyes. 

Talk about a ghost that won’t go away! 

Lizetta’s gaze only paused for a second on Evelina and Remington before she coolly looked away. 

As for Remington, he didn’t even glance at Lizetta once, treating her like she was a total stranger. 

“Remington, why is my sister here too?” Evelina asked him, looking puzzled and under her breath. 

With one hand in his pocket, Remington replied with icy indifference, “No idea.” 

Seeing that neither Lizetta nor Remington had any intention of greeting each other, and both acting colder than a couple of strangers, Evelina figured out that Lizetta’s presence wasn’t orchestrated by Remington. 

Evelina relaxed, with a radiant smile playing on her lips, and gave Lizetta a defiant look. 

“Master Dories, that gentleman over there is Mr. Dashiell and his friend.” 

The blonde man by Remington’s side stepped forward to whisper something to Master Dories, who then nodded towards Remington. 

The man then approached and greeted Master Dories. 

Listening to their smooth conversation, Lizetta, who was eavesdropping, found out that Master Dories‘ husband was Remington’s business partner, 

It was through this connection that Remington had introduced Evelina to Master Dories. 

Evelina was aiming to join Master Dories‘ touring accompaniment team as a violinist. 

Master Dories‘ domestic tour might not have the sizzle of a top celeb’s, but it was indeed a big deal in the dance world. 

If she could get into the accompaniment team, it would be a stamp of approval for Evelina’s skills and would seriously level up her cool factor. 

That was the deal Remington and Evelina had agreed upon before. 

Evelina would keep the baby, and Remington would pave the way for her to access resources. 

“Evelina, Master Dories has agreed to listen to you play the violin later. Come over and thank her in person,” Remington said, turning to Evelina. 

As Evelina didn’t speak a word of Iridian, she,hadn’t understood a thing when Remington and Dories spoke earlier. 

Hearing this, she hurried over and offered her thanks in English. 

But Dorles‘ reaction was lukewarm at best, with just a slight nod. 

Master Dories then turned back to Remington, saying, “Mr. Dashiell, your Iridian is so good, and I never expected to find so many Iridian speakers in Zion City. Like Ms. Gardenia, her Iridian is spot on too, which made me feel right at home the moment I got off the plane!” 

Dories then pulled Lizetta closer and, with her curiosity piqued, she asked, “But do you two know each other? Your accents are so similar!” 

Lizetta glanced at Remington, with her eyes flickering slightly. 

She and Remington had learned Iridian from the same teacher, so of course they sounded like. 

Back in the day, it was the Dashiell family who had hired a language tutor for Pemington Lizetta, just a kid of eight or nine back then, was super clingy with Remington. Whenever he was home, she’d stick to him like glue. 

That’s why Lizetta could speak all four foreign languages that Remington knew 

Remington’s cool gaze finally brushed over Lizetta for the first time 

His look was neutral, merely polite, and he quickly shifted back to Dories as he said, “We don’t know each other. So, is Ms. Gardenia the interpreter?” 

Lizetta didn’t want Remington to know about her studies abroad, so before Dones could say anything she nodded and said, “Yes, I’m the interpreter. But with Mr. Dashiell’s Iridian being so good, it looks like there’s no need for me here.” 

Dories did have an interpreter in tow, but they were delayed and would arrive on a later flight. 

Lizetta happened to speak Iridian, which was a pleasant surprise for Dories. On their way to the hotel, she had temporarily enlisted Lizetta as her interpreter. 

Evelina, standing off to the side, was completely lost as to what the three of them were talking about. 

She felt utterly superfluous, and was crushed by a sense of humiliation as Lizetta completely overshadowed her. 

With her head down and fists clenched, she brimmed with resentment. 

Soon after, Lizetta accompanied Dories into a room, and once the door closed, Evelina asked.
