Seeing Tracy, she froze for an instant, but quickly returned to normal. She wanted to confirm one fact: how much weight Tracy still held in Chandler’s heart. She wanted to make Tracy feel embarrassed and discouraged, so Tracy would stop sticking to Chandler like a stubborn plaster that couldn’t be shaken off. She knows Chandler doesn’t love her anymore, yet she resorts to such tiresome tactics. She is truly manipulative.
Chandler only glanced at Tracy, then his thin lips parted, uttering three words: “I know her.”
Lincoln quickly explained, “She’s a former employee of Chandler’s company. We’ve just seen her a few times.” Seeing Yvonne frown, he quickly added that explanation, which eased Yvonne’s expression slightly.
Yvonne said dismissively, “Oh, well that’s quite rude. Let’s hurry. We can’t keep Morten waiting.” No matter what method Tracy used, she couldn’t win back Chandler’s heart, because his heart was no longer with her. She naturally disdained Tracy’s clumsy attempts. In places where the Xander family wasn’t present, she didn’t even bother to glance at Tracy.
So what if Tracy ruined her plan to become an apprentice? Chandler and Jared would still help her find other opportunities. She was confident that with her own ability, she would make Morten see how outstanding she was, and he would make an exception to accept her.
Tracy’s lips curved into a sarcastic smile. The mistress actually has the nerve to criticize the lawful wife. Truly shameless.
After Chandler and Yvonne walked away, Lincoln blocked Tracy’s path. “Tracy, Chandler invested hundreds of millions into Professor Morten’s research lab just to invite Professor Morten out for a meal. Please don’t go and disturb them. If you mess up this conversation, all of Chandler’s money will be wasted. You know Chandler’s temper; he’ll be very angry. Why do something that makes everyone unhappy? Don’t you agree?” He felt he had spoken very tactfully and hoped Tracy would understand on her own, urging her not to resort to making a scene in such a venue. Doing so would only push Chandler further away and serve no
purpose.
Perry also advised Tracy, “You don’t mingle in this circle, so you obviously don’t know how difficult it is. People without some real ability can’t survive in this circle, and Ms. Xander just happens to have a talent for it.” “Chandler cherishes talent, and Gaunt Corp has an important partnership with Xander Corp. So, they are just flirting for appearance’s sake. You shouldn’t take it too seriously.” Although he felt it was unnecessary to explain too much to Tracy, he still said all this, hoping Tracy wouldn’t cause a scene right now. If she did, everyone would lose face, which would be entirely detrimental.
Tracy only found it laughable. Flirting for appearance’s sake, did they have to go to bed? However, she no longer cared. They were divorced. Who cares what her ex-husband does? She nodded slightly in acknowledgment. “Are you done talking? If so, please move aside. My reserved

room is right behind you.” After saying this, she walked past them without paying attention to their expressions and headed straight for her room.
Lincoln: “…” So, they’ve been performing a scene here for nothing. She didn’t take any of it to heart!Why does this feel so awkward? He turned his attention to Perry. “What do you think Tracy means by that? The Gold Club is membership-only. Chandler even had to use connections to book a table. What ability does Tracy have to follow us here, and still act so superior? Doesn’t Tracy worry that we’ll speak ill of her to Chandler if she acts like this?”
Perry glanced at Tracy’s back and said leisurely, “She’s probably just trying to get our attention so she can make a show for Chandler. However, I do think Tracy’s tactics have improved quite a bit recently. No matter where Chandler goes, Tracy follows. I wonder what kind of methods she’s using to achieve so much.
Hearing this, Lincoln’s sarcasm was almost palpable. “Who cares what methods she uses? Chandler won’t be interested in her anyway. He’s completely devoted to Yvonne now. He spared no expense to ensure Yvonne could apprentice under Mr. Morten. They are the true lovers.”
Perry nodded in agreement. It was true. With the support of her family and Chandler’s lavish spending, it was hard not to succeed.
Tracy was unaware of their complaints. After she entered the private room, Natalie quickly followed.
Natalie sat down and said angrily, “Guess who I ran into when I came in? That scumbag and his cheap mistress! Are they just showing up brazenly now? You wouldn’t believe how disgusting they are. I feel like throwing up the breakfast I ate this morning. Yvonne was practically hugging Chandler in the hallway! It was a real eyesore. I wish I could have rushed over and torn the two of them apart.” When she first saw that scene, Natalie’s first reaction was to charge in, but a server blocked her path. In that instant, she calmed down. Thanks to the server blocking her, she managed to prevent a huge scene. Since they were already divorced, it was best to part amicably. Thinking this, Natalie began to calm down. Thank goodness I didn’t make a terrible mistake.
Tracy calmly stood up and poured Natalie a glass of water. “The divorce certificate is in my hands. I stopped caring about those things a long time ago.”
Natalie took the water and sipped it. “Mmm, that’s exactly right. That scumbag and his mistress deserve each other. They better lock themselves up for life and stop hurting other people.” Just then, a server arrived. Natalie immediately ordered several dishes and several bottles of good wine. She waved her hand lavishly. “Tracy, we’re not going home tonight until we’re drunk!”
Tracy said to Natalie with some difficulty, “I just got out of the hospital for a cold. I can’t drink alcohol for now. I’ll drink tea instead of wine to keep you company.” “You shouldn’t drink too much either. You don’t want to get so drunk you can’t find your way home. I can’t carry you.”

Hearing this, Natalie worriedly grabbed Tracy, checking her over. Seeing the needle marks on her hand, she bit her lip with concern. “Tracy, you were hospitalized? Why didn’t you tell me? Look how thin you are. I’m going to order some light dishes for you.” Without waiting for Tracy to respond, Natalie told the server to remove some of the wine and add some light dishes.
The food was served quickly. Natalie popped open a bottle of wine, poured herself a full glass, and quickly drank it down. Followed by a second glass, a third glass… Her mood was terrible today, and she desperately needed to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
