Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 194

Miranda was about to say something when Elian jumped in first. "Ms. Sterling, overstepping the bounds, are you police?"

Miranda was silent. Not that she needed a spokesperson.

Celeste, feeling slighted, said, "I’m talking to her, why are you defending her? Besides, I didn’t say anything wrong."

She pointed at Miranda. "She's climbed her way up just to squander Ms. Lavinia Lancaster's money. You might be okay with it, but I sure as heck am not. Is it her money? Spending Ms. Lavinia Lancaster's cash left and right. I'm not okay with it, and I'm going to say something!"

Miranda's voice was icy. "Even if I am spending Godmom's money, what business is it of yours? What are you trying to prove here? Should I call her on video and ask her what she thinks?"

Miranda could see right through Celeste's meddling; it wasn't out of goodwill. If it were that she purely believed Miranda had done what she shouldn’t do, Celeste wouldn't be using such harsh and cutting words.

This was just an attempt to drag Miranda down while elevating herself. Even at the expense of the truth, she was ready to make a scene. Arrogant and conceited. No wonder Elian found her irritating.

Celeste shot back coolly, "Go ahead. I'd love to tell Ms. Lavinia Lancaster what her goddaughter is really like!"

In her eyes, Lavinia was the epitome of independence. No way would she let her money be squandered like that, especially by a goddaughter with no blood ties. She'd never even heard of this goddaughter until recently. Who knew what the story was?

Miranda chuckled, pulling out her phone and dialing Lavinia, who was at abroad, on a video call.

When dealing with someone like Celeste, who loved to meddle, Miranda couldn't be bothered to argue. Better to let her Godmom handle it directly.

The video call connected almost immediately. Lavinia's perfectly made-up, beautiful face filled the screen.

What made Miranda deserve such a generous godmother? She should be rotting in jail! Celeste's face mirrored Arabella's discontent.

Grinning, Miranda replied, "No need, I haven't even spent the money you already gave me."

Lavinia feigned displeasure. "Why aren't you spending it? Don’t try to save it for me. Who else should spend my money if not you?"

Everyone present thought, "I could help you spend it too."

"Ms. Lavinia Lancaster, it's me, Celeste," she greeted, stepping into the frame with a much more obedient demeanor than earlier.
