Selma Payne's POV:
I usually didn't care about people gossiping about me behind my back. For one, I was too busy to deal with these minor details. Secondly, not everyone was 'qualified' to talk to me.
It was a bit impolite to say this, but the fact was that some young people who were self-aware of their status didn't even have the right to take the initiative to talk to me if we were to get serious. Such people were like Tom, Dick, and Harry to me. Who would care about them?
To make me look up, even if not a demon on the level of Azazel, it should be a famous villain like Adele, who could do something bad.
That was why I was happy to have a reputation for being tolerant and not being calculative about those petty people who didn't deserve my attention.
However, being tolerant didn't mean that I was deaf. The lounge was only so big, and it would be too impudent to say such things in front of everyone.
