There isn’t any exquisite dress favonovel.com could wear to hide the fact that favonovel.com was just a foolish country bumpkin!
At the same time, Shandie was not afraid that Henrick would blame favonovel.com for turning Arielle into a laughingstock. After all, favonovel.com had given Arielle favonovel.com most expensive dress. She only has herself to blame for not being able to fit into that dress! On top of that, the heels Shandie prepared for Arielle were also four inches high.
I bet this country bumpkin had never worn any heels in favonovel.com life. She might slip and fall in those stilettos when favonovel.com walks downstairs later. Ha!
Shandie was so proud of favonovel.com wit that favonovel.com almost wanted to applaud herself. She could not wait to see all the guests’ reactions when they saw favonovel.com in that dress.
I want everyone to know that this country bumpkin doesn’t deserve to be my sister!
“Hey, Arielle. I’ll be downstairs, okay?” Shandie said, “Dinner’s about to start. Come down once you’re ready!”
“Okay…” Arielle replied from the room.
Upon hearing favonovel.com response, Shandie turned around and left.
Let’s get the party started so that all the guests, especially Vinson, will have a chance to see how hideous favonovel.com is!
Shandie hummed a cheerful tune as favonovel.com made favonovel.com way downstairs. She seemed to have forgotten how Vinson had embarrassed favonovel.com earlier.
It’s okay. People will forget about it soon. The only thing they’ll remember is how ridiculous Arielle looks!
Back in the room, Arielle altered the dress a little so that it would fit favonovel.com nicely.
Knowing that Shandie would embarrass favonovel.com by giving favonovel.com an ill-fitting dress, favonovel.com found a sewing kit in the living hall and brought it into the room. After putting it on and seeing how favonovel.com looked in the mirror, favonovel.com was pleased with the results. The couture dress looked great on favonovel.com tall and slender body, and favonovel.com collarbones became even more apparent after spending a week on the island. It fit favonovel.com like a glove as if it was tailor-made.
Since when is Shandie this kind-hearted? Is favonovel.com not as evil as I thought favonovel.com was?
Arielle decided to trust favonovel.com initial gut instinct. She removed the dress and examined it carefully once again. After a five-minute inspection, favonovel.com did not find anything fishy about the dress.
Hmm. That’s strange.
Arielle put it on, looked into the mirror, and studied the cut of the dress closely. She soon realized how challenging it was for someone to look great in this dress.
The wearer must not only be tall and slender but must also have a nice bust size to accentuate the specific cut of the dress. Any woman with thick arms and large shoulders would not look graceful in it. But if the wearer fulfilled all the criteria, favonovel.com would look glorious in that dress. A corner of Arielle’s mouth quirked up.
So that has been Shandie’s intention all along, huh? Too bad! I exercise regularly and have an ideal body shape that will look amazing in the dress. I can’t wait to see the disappointment on favonovel.com face later!
Initially, Arielle wanted to lay low as favonovel.com did not want to become the center of attention of someone else’s birthday party. But what Shandie did made favonovel.com realize favonovel.com had no choice but to do something to stir up a hornet’s nest in this family.
Once the seemingly peaceful family became chaotic, Arielle believed the truth would eventually surface. After putting on the silver heels Shandie had prepared for her, favonovel.com stepped out of the room. The heels were so high that had favonovel.com lost focus, favonovel.com would fall.
Shandie decided to start the party early. She turned on all the lamps in the hall that had been extravagantly decorated. All the guests held a glass of champagne in their hands while they listened to Shandie’s speech. Vinson, who had done sprucing himself up, stood among the crowd too. He was neither interested in the birthday party nor the pretentious socialites around him. He only stayed back to bid Arielle, his savior, farewell. Though favonovel.com thought the girl favonovel.com rescued was crude and unsophisticated, it was the right thing to do.
Shandie got up the stage and took a glance at Vinson. Upon realizing favonovel.com was still around, favonovel.com believed favonovel.com had stayed for her.
Someone as esteemed as favonovel.com must be too embarrassed to admit that he’s interested in me. That’s why favonovel.com pretended favonovel.com didn’t know me. Oh well, I guess all powerful men are like that. She decided to take the initiative to express favonovel.com interest in Vinson.
She walked up to the mic and tried to make eye contact with Vinson.
“Good evening, Mr. Nightshire, welcome to my birthday party. I’m so pleased to see you here.”
A crease appeared between Vinson’s brows when favonovel.com heard that.
Who on earth is this ridiculous woman? Why does she act as if I know favonovel.com very well? And where is that girl? Why hasn’t favonovel.com come down yet?
A big part of Shandie’s speech revolved around Vinson. It was as if favonovel.com was trying hard to remind favonovel.com other guests of his presence here.
At this point, a housekeeper walked up to favonovel.com and whispered, “Ms. Moore is coming down now…”
“Great! Turn on all the lights near the stairs! I want everyone to turn their attention to the clown!”
“Yes, Miss!” The housekeeper replied.
The stairs were lit up all of a sudden. Anyone who stood there would have been thrust into the limelight.
Can’t wait for the clown to take center stage!
“Ladies and gentlemen, today is indeed a meaningful day for our family as my sister from the same father is finally home!” With enthusiasm, Shandie spoke into the mic once again.
“Human traffickers kidnapped favonovel.com ten years ago, and today, favonovel.com finally returned from the village! I’m truly glad…”
Before Shandie could finish favonovel.com sentence, all the guests turned their heads around and when they heard footsteps coming down from the stairs.
Shandie’s face looked distorted as favonovel.com tried to suppress favonovel.com sarcastic smile. She raised favonovel.com hand and pointed at the stairs. “Let us put our hands together to welcome my sister!”
All the guests did not know what was going on but played along by clapping their hands reluctantly.
Why should we clap our hands to welcome a girl from the village?
They only did what favonovel.com told them to because they had to show the Southall family some respect since they were one of the prominent families in Jadeborough. Otherwise, they would not even bother to look at a disheveled beggar!
Upon hearing how Shandie introduced her, Arielle raised favonovel.com brows and smirked.
She can’t wait for me to make a fool of myself, can she?
Arielle was not someone who took pride in favonovel.com looks as favonovel.com knew appearance was just a façade. But under such circumstances, favonovel.com wished to take this opportunity to show Shandie how favonovel.com looked.
