Chapter 301 Do You Know Him?
“I have used this purse for a while, and it’s a little dirty now.
How about I give you another one?”
In fact, Cora didn’t intend to really give Evelyn such an expensive purse, and it was just to test her.
Evelyn smiled. “If you don’t want to exchange it with me, it’s
fine.”
This sounded like a compromise, but Cora felt that Evelyn was
forcing her to exchange her purse in disguise.
In front of so many rich wives, she felt that she would be petty
if she disagreed to exchange it with Evelyn.
It would be fine if it was something else, but this was given to her by Byron, and she always felt that Evelyn forced her to exchange it with her for ulterior motives.
So even when Nora gave her frequent glances, indicating that she should agree to exchange the purse, Cora still smiled and
said, “I also loved it very much.”
She made it clear that she just didn’t want to exchange it with Evelyn!

Evelyn’s smile also faded visibly on the spot.
“Nora, Byron’s fiancée seems to be frugal and can arrange expenses well in the future.” Margaret, who was in charge of organizing the party, witnessed her granddaughter’s request to change her purse was rejected, suddenly smiled, and said
to Nora.
Frugal?
For ordinary people, this was definitely a compliment.
But those wealthy families were not short of money, so if they
were too frugal, they would appear to be cheap.
Nora also knew that Margaret seemed to compliment her on
the surface, but in fact, she was calling Cora petty.
“We’ll see about that.” She responded to Margaret with a
smile without directly mentioning the topic of fiancée. It also
showed others that Cora might not be Byron’s wife.
“By the way, how is Evelyn’s preparation recently? I heard that the trials have already started.” After Nora gave Cora a cold
look, she brought up the topic of Evelyn’s participation in the shooting competition.
Margaret simply forgot the unhappiness just now and smiled.

“She passed the trials already, and the result was among the best. After participating in the national finals this time, she will
represent our country in international competitions.”
Among the younger generation of the Cross family, Harry was a well–known player, and Mia was too fat and got pregnant before marriage, so only Evelyn, who looked beautiful and was still quite successful in shooting, was who Margaret liked to talk about most at parties.
With Nora taking the lead, others also joined the conversation about Evelyn.
“Evelyn has won the gold medal in the international shooting competition before, right?”
“Not really. Just a silver medal. At that time, Evelyn was younger than the other contestants, and her arm strength was not strong enough, so she won the silver medal, but this year she will go for the gold medal.” Margaret explained.
“Great. I see that some major news channels in New York all have news about Evelyn, saying that this time the gold award is guaranteed. They encourage all young people in New York to learn from Evelyn!”
“Actually, Evelyn is only good at shooting and still needs to learn more about other areas.” Evelyn was praised by others, and Margaret felt happier than she was praised, laughing

nonstop.
“It’s amazing to be so good at shooting. I don’t think you can
find anyone who is better than Evelyn in New York.”
“There is. I heard from my coach that he had an apprentice before, who can shoot at the bull’s–eye every time.”
Evelyn said so, but in fact, she didn’t believe that this person really existed.
The reason why she said this was nothing more than relying on the fact that she was under the spotlight now, and people would praise her no matter what she said.
Nora said, “Your coach must have lied to you. He just made up a story to encourage you. Maybe he was secretly happy when he saw your results!”
Then, Nora gave Cora a look, asking her to join the
conversation.
Cora saw Nora’s signal, followed up, and said, “Is your coach Mr. Steve Crawford?”
Evelyn was slightly surprised. “Do you know him?”
