NovelEnglishChapter 1065 Selena went out for a spa day with Aveline, but as soon as they stepped into the salon, they unexpectedly ran into Jolie.
Jolie exuded an air of indifference, her entire demeanor laced with a lazy sort of detachment as if nothing in the world could pique her interest. She wore oversized sunglasses, her expression hidden, but her complexion looked far from well. "Miss Jolie, what a coincidence," Aveline greeted her with a polite smile.
Jolie glanced over, giving a faint nod, but didn't bother to say anything more.
Selena frowned slightly at the interaction.

Aveline turned to her, confused. "Are you talking about Jolie?" "Of course. Look at her! She looks like a ghost has sucked the life right out of her," Selena said, her voice a mix of concern and curiosity.
Aveline's lips curled into a knowing smile. "If you're that worried about her, why not go and ask her yourself?" "I'm not worried about her," Selena shot back immediately, lying down and closing her eyes to signal the end of the conversation.
Aveline didn't press the matter, though her knowing smile remained. She reclined on the lounge chair as well, casually adding, "She's definitely not herself. I'll go and have a word with her later." Selena's lashes fluttered at Aveline's remark, but she said nothing.
What neither of them expected was for Jolie to cto them first.
"Selena," Jolie said, standing in the doorway, her tone calm but direct. "If I leave the Quin family, would you takein?" Selena blinked, caught completely off guard. Her sister's question seemed to cout of nowhere. "Why would you leave the Quin family?" Leaning against the doorframe, Jolie studied Selena's puzzled expression for a moment before answering abruptly, "I was just speaking hypothetically. Don't take it seriously." With that, she turned and walked away.
"Hey! What do you mean by that? Explain yourself!" Selena called after her, raising her voice in frustration. Jolie didn't stop walking, as though her visit had been nothing more than a whim.
Aveline remarked, "It seems like the Quin family isn't treating her very well." "That's impossible," Selena replied. "The Quin family gives her everything she could ever want. She has whatever she asks for. How could they be treating her badly?" Aveline didn't press further, not knowing enough about the Quin family's dynamics to comment.
By the tthey finished their beauty treatments, the sky had already darkened.
However, Selena remained distracted and restless.
While waiting in the lounge, a group of young women nearby was engaged in conversation.

Isn't that obvious?" "It's clearly a matchmaking event for Jolie Quin, But I didn't think the Quin family would be so blatant about it. They're not even inviting families with daughters. Aren't they afraid of becoming a joke?" "Who'd dare to laugh at them? The Quin family just secured the South City project, and the Cooper Group pushed the Lowe family out of the deal entirely. The Quin family has all the resources and influence now. They wouldn't bother with smaller families like ours." Selena's frown deepened as she listened.
A banquet specifically to arrange a match for Jolie? This...
"Let's go." Aveline returned, breaking Selena's thoughts.
Selena glanced at her and asked, "Did you get an invitation to the Quim ve family's banquet tonight?" Aveline shook her head. "No. How do you know about it?" "I overheard someone talking about it." Aveline studied her for a moment. "Are you thinking about going?" Selena pressed her lips together, saying nothing.
"If you want to go, then go," Aveline said calmly, Don't forget-you're now the wife of Aaron Fletcher, the president of Fletcher Enterprises No one would dare look down on you,
not even your parents. They wouldn't dare give you the cold shoulder.
