Esme’s face went pale.
Glory M had blocked her? She was the eldest daughter of the Russell family. How dare he treat her like this?!
Exme tried adding him as a friend again, but no luck. Every time she tried, her phone would freeze. What the heck was going on?
Elizabeth was still sneaking peeks at Esme’s phone, so Esme quickly hid the screen. She called her–assistant right away, “Why can’t I reach Glory M?”
“Mell, did you offend Glory M!”
“What do you m
mean?” Esme bit her lip.
“Ms. Russell, you’ve been blacklisted! Glory M said no one can take your orders anymore. If they do, they’re provoking him!”
Esme’s face twisted in anger. What did this even mean?
The assistant added, “Ms. Russell, its over. We probably won’t get the ginseng
Esme collapsed onto the sofa, stunned. She hadn’t offended Glory Mt Wasn’t he the one standing her up?
The room was so quiet, Elizabeth could hear everything.
Elizabeth sat next to Esme, touched her nose, and muttered, “Esme, did Glory M stand you up again? I think he’s doing it on purpose.”
Esme had spent two days only to get blocked by Glory M! She was already furious, and Elizabeth was still poking at her.
She glared at Elizabeth, nearly breaking down, and shouted, “Get out!”
Elizabeth could barely hold back her laughter.
What an idiot!
Glory M totally ghosted her last night. Who in their right mind would show up again today?
Tame, chill! It’s Glory M we’re talking about, not someone we can just call up. Don’t sweat it, okay? Elizabeth tried to soothe her.
i got even more pissed. She started crying and snapped, “I’m not like you. I’m the Russell family’s eldest daughter. Of course, I deserve to meet him!” “Yeah, yeah, you’re right,” Elizabeth said with a helpless smile, grabbing her bag. “Who cares if Glory M stood you up? You still got the ginseng!”
The more Elizabeth tried to comfort her, the more anxious Esme got. She even thought Elizabeth was doing it on purpose!
She hadn’t met Glory M, and she didn’t get the ginseng! Now she was blacklisted on the black market! Was that blacklist for real?
“Ms. Russell, see you at Lily’s birthday party! E Elizabeth said, making a quick exit.
Esme stood there, mouth open, staring at the closed door, furning!

Esme sine the messages and felt a chill run down her spine. Who spilled the beans?!
Just then, her phone buzzed. It was Henry Russell, her older brother
She picked up quickly. Henry’s voice was calm. Eume, did you get the ginseng?”
Esme bit her lip, hesitating-
Chapter 57
“Awesome, looks like you’re definitely marrying Alexander now.”
“I gotta go. We’ll talk later.” Henry hung up before she could say a word.
Still in shock, Esme’s phone rang again. It was her dad, Stephen Russell.
“Esme, how’d you get that ginseng?!”
