The True Heiress: Legend Mode novel Chapter 5

"Fine."

At that moment, a maid walked by. "Ms. Mercer, does your room need cleaning?"

Gerda frowned deeply. "Preposterous!"

The maid flinched, immediately bowing her head in terror.

"What did you just call her?"

"M-Ms. Mercer..."

"Open your damn eyes! She is the true heiress of this house! You incompetent fools."

Gerda's furious outburst served as a brutal wake-up call to the entire staff.

And she was in such a foul mood that her face was dark with a scowl as she left.

Meanwhile, her reaction had been a deliberate, humiliating slap in the face to Rhiannon.

...

The next day.

Juno emerged from her room wearing a minimalist outfit.

Downstairs, Rhiannon was dressed to the nines, strutting around like a peacock in heat. Every single accessory she wore belonged to the latest, impossible-to-get designer collections.

Tsk. How did the Corringtons end up raising such a shallow piece of work? Juno casually averted her gaze.

Rhiannon lifted her chin, radiating arrogance. "Shall we go, my dear sister?"

...

At the Royal Crest Archery Club.

The driveway was packed with luxury sports cars. The patrons stepping out were dripping in haute couture, wearing outfits that cost more than downtown real estate.

Rhiannon stepped out of the car, her eyes scanning the crowd. Realizing no one was dressed better than her, a wave of profound vanity washed over her.

She stood demurely by the door, waiting for her companion.

She was convinced that a girl from the boondocks like Juno would freeze up in such an elite environment. Juno’s absolute humiliation would only highlight her own flawless grace.

But when Juno stepped out, she didn't even pause. Eyes fixed straight ahead, she walked toward the entrance with long, confident strides.

She wore a crisp white button-down, tailored straight-leg pants that accentuated her long legs, and a dark green overcoat. Her luminous skin practically glowed. The gentle breeze caught the hem of her coat, making it flutter elegantly.

Effortless. That was the only word that came to Rhiannon's mind.
