Chapter 80
Daniel’s smile froze, and he was utterly humiliated. Linda, a waitress dressed as a maid, sidled up to him.
“Mr. March, Lizetta’s playing hard to get. She’s not into these flowers, but I sure am. How about you give them to me instead?”
Linda was easy on the eyes, and normally, Daniel would’ve jumped at the chance with such a beauty throwing herself at him.
But ever since he laid eyes on Lizetta, she’s all he can think about.

a rare gem right in front of him, all other jewels just look like plain rocks.
“Scram!” he snapped angrily.
Linda couldn’t save face and ran off crying, her hands covering her face.
And Evelina, watching from a car across the street, caught the whole scene.
This morning. April stumbled upon a video on a short video platform titled “The Most Beautiful Mermaid” and showed it to her. That was how she found out Lizetta was doing mermaid gigs here.
She came to check it out for herself and didn’t expect to catch such an entertaining scene.
“Wow, the young madam of the Dashiell family, slumming it as a mermaid to make ends meet. Looks like Lizetta’s not having a grand time with the Dashiell family,” she said with a satisfied chuckle, leaning back in her
seat.
April, sitting beside her, chimed in. “She’s got no family backing her up, and her reputation’s in the gutter. How could she be taken seriously? Not like you, Evelina, born with a silver spoon.”
Evelina smirked, leaned in, and whispered some instructions to April.
“Be careful with it.”
This time, she was determined to ruin Lizetta once and for all!
After her performance, Lizetta stepped out of the restaurant and noticed she had missed several calls from Yolanda half an hour earlier.
Calling back immediately, Yolanda picked up right away.
“Liz, you need to get to the hospital now. I’ve arranged a prenatal checkup for you.”
“Huh?” Lizetta was taken aback.
“No time to explain. Hurry over, they’ve started shooting. The director’s on my case.”
Lizetta had been anxious about not having a prenatal checkup.
She agreed and immediately hailed a taxi to the hospital.
Yolanda might be a bit of a loudmouth, but she’s reliable. Sure enough, everything was set up smoothly.
An hour later, Lizetta sat in the gynecology waiting room, a bit on edge and fidgeting with her fingers, when she heard a voice of surprise.
“Lizetta? What are you doing here?”
Lizetta looked up to see a pregnant woman with a big belly standing in front of her, equally surprised.
“Lydia? Are you here for a checkup?”
Lydia had left her job when she was about four or five months along, not showing much, but now her belly had
