My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 296

Zephyra continued to praise, "Dr. Ausline is such a top psychologist at such a young age, and you're so pretty too! Oh my gosh, how's any other young girl supposed to compete?"

Sienna smiled shyly. "You're too kind."

Even though she didn't know Zephyra at all, no one didn't enjoy hearing some compliments.

The group of high-society ladies who came with Zephyra weren't to be outshone and joined in, praising Sienna.

None of them knew Sienna, but they were all seasoned socialites who frequently attended various gatherings.

They had mastered the art of flattery, always knowing exactly what to say to whoever they met. They showered Sienna with so much praise that she couldn't get a word in.

Sienna's face was starting to feel stiff from all the forced smiling. Even though the whole situation was a bit strange to her.

But since she was back, she had been trying hard to figure out how to boost her reputation. Now, these ladies inadvertently gave her some help. So she decided not to expose Zephyra's little act of pretending they were old friends.

Unaware of Ausline's thoughts, Zephyra, seeing her plan working, tested the waters by asking, "Dr. Wen, you're here to treat Mr. Sunny Hayes of the Hayes family in Willowdale today, right?"

Sienna's eyes flashed with surprise. She thought, 'I haven't told anyone about the high-paying offer from the Hayes family, so how does she know? Could she be trying to steal the job?'

With this thought, Sienna looked at Zephyra with a hint of concealed hostility and asked coldly, "How do you know that?"

Zephyra couldn't directly admit that she had been keeping an eye on the Hayes family's every move in Willowdale.

Lana, who was unaware, chimed in for Zephyra, saying, "Dr. Ausline might not know, but Mrs. Hayes here is part of the Hayes family in Willowdale. Actually, she is Mr. Sunny Hayes' aunt!"

The title of "aunt" made Zephyra feel a bit guilty, but she put on a brave face and said, "We're not that close, really!"

Everyone quickly flattered her, insisting she was more than deserving of the title.

Seeing that nobody else had responded yet, Zephyra put on a flattering smile and went over. "Mr. Cooper, why did you bring Mr. Sunny Hayes? Isn't Mr. Hayes coming?"

Michael furrowed his brow slightly. He had a vague impression of Zephyra but wasn't familiar with her and had never interacted with her.

However, he was aware of the grudges between Audrey and Dominic. Therefore, he never really liked the Hayes family in Riverdale.

Looking at the enthusiastic Zephyra, Michael gave a cold smile and said, "Sorry, I don't have the authority to know Mr. Hayes' schedule."

Zephyra hadn't realized his indifference and persistently continued to ask, "How could you not know? The fact that Mr. Hayes trusts you with his son shows his confidence in you. We came today because we wanted to meet Mr. Hayes..."

"Mrs. Hayes." Michael interrupted Zephyra coldly, his tone indifferent. "If it's not urgent, please don't waste my time."

Zephyra was speechless.
