Regina reveals that Sabrina is a talented national-level researcher working at a highly exclusive location called Base 01, making a connection with her valuable. Gianna agrees to try to build a relationship with Sabrina, hoping to use it to her advantage against Amelia. Regina hints at creating opportunities for the two to interact, including the possibility of Sabrina showing up on the variety show, which could lead to a dramatic confrontation on camera.

Throughout the chapter, key emotions include Gianna’s cautious optimism, Regina’s strategic determination, and the underlying tension fueled by rivalries and power struggles within their social circle.

Chapter 303 Powerful Family

Finister

When filming a show, it was never just a single camera capturing the scene. Multiple devices worked in unison, ensuring every angle was covered.

If Amelia dared to activate a jammer, it wouldn’t just disrupt one camera—it would interfere with the entire crew’s equipment.

And if the cameras couldn’t function properly, what purpose would the show serve?

“You have a valid point,” Gianna finally admitted, her resistance fading.

Her mother nodded reassuringly. “Don’t worry. We’ve prepared a backup plan this time. Over the next few days, I’ll teach you some practical skills to handle these situations.”

It was rare for Gianna to show interest in learning anything, even if it was just to look good on camera. Still, this was a step up from outright refusal.

Whether she shone on the show or not wasn’t really her concern; that had never been her priority.

“Alright, I understand,” Gianna said, finally relaxing a little.

Having her mother nearby was the ultimate safety net, especially since her mom possessed real expertise.

Once she felt more at ease, Gianna’s thoughts drifted back to what had happened in the sommelier class earlier.

“We barely need to lift a finger. That arrogant Amelia won’t be smug for much longer,” she said confidently.

“She only acts like that because Jeremy supports her.”

“But Jeremy already has a fiancée, and she comes from a powerful family. Amelia’s reign is coming to an end.”

Regina raised her eyebrows in surprise upon hearing this.

She hadn’t paid much attention to the kids’ romantic entanglements before, nor had she seen Amelia as a threat.

But realizing that girl was more complicated than she’d thought sparked her curiosity.

“Jeremy’s fiancée? Who is she?” Regina asked.

“The Jordans. Her name’s Sabrina. I’d heard rumors before and dismissed them as gossip, but it turns out they’re true.”

When Regina heard the name “Sabrina Jordan,” her calm gaze flickered.

“Sabrina? She’s really engaged to the Currans?”

“Yes. She was in the sommelier class today. I even tried to strike up a conversation, but she was so aloof—barely spoke to anyone.”

“And her cousin Brielle is just as insufferable,” Gianna added, her annoyance clear.

Yet, she thought, the enemy of my enemy could be a friend. If they both disliked Amelia, teaming up would be ideal.

“The Jordans are influential. You should try to keep in touch with Sabrina. If you can get close to her, that would be even better.”

Regina’s interest deepened, and she pressed further, “Which sommelier class is she in? You should sign up for that one.”

“It’s hard to get into Ms. Scott’s class. I only got in because someone canceled.”

But honestly, the sommelier class wasn’t the real issue. What bothered Gianna was how shamelessly Quilla fawned over Sabrina.

If one didn’t know better, it would seem like a private lesson.

“Don’t worry. Mom has the right connections to get you in,” Regina assured her.

Gianna eyed her mother curiously. “Why are you suddenly so interested in Sabrina? You’re really pushing me to get close to her.”

She hadn’t thought much of it before, but her mother’s insistence was becoming too obvious to ignore.

Regina’s heartbeat quickened for a moment when confronted but she quickly composed herself.

“The Jordans are powerful. Sabrina is talented—studying both medicine and pharmacology. She’s already recognized as a national-level researcher.”

“I heard she’s currently stationed at Base 01. Building a connection with her would only benefit you.”

Regina mixed some truth with convenience, but she genuinely hoped they could get along.

Base 01 wasn’t a place ordinary people could access—it was practically sacred.

“Alright, I’d like to get to know her too,” Gianna said, choosing not to pry further.

Of course, she wanted a good relationship with Sabrina—ideally one she could influence and use against Amelia.

“I’ll create opportunities for you both,” Regina promised.

“There’s already one today. I casually mentioned that Amelia and Jeremy are filming a variety show. Do you think Sabrina might show up?”

If Sabrina appeared on the show, it would be utter chaos.

The mistress and the legitimate fiancée facing off on camera? That would be perfect.

Gianna’s eyes sparkled with anticipation, already picturing Sabrina confronting Amelia on screen.

“It’s hard to say,” Regina said thoughtfully.

Since Sabrina worked in that field, her joining wouldn’t be surprising.

But given her status, it was just as likely she’d ignore it completely.

The Jordans.

“You know the Nygards, right?”

“Of course. We haven’t partnered with the Nygard Residence, but they’re part of our social circle. Naturally, I’ve heard of them.”

The chapter delicately explores the intricate dynamics of power, influence, and rivalry within a high-stakes social environment. Gianna’s reluctant acceptance of her mother’s guidance marks a subtle shift in her attitude, revealing her growing desire to navigate the complexities surrounding her with more confidence and strategy. The tension between Amelia, Sabrina, and Jeremy sets the stage for an emotional and dramatic confrontation, underscoring themes of loyalty, ambition, and the delicate balance of alliances.
