NovelGoldChapter 80 "I've arranged for another dress for you, it'll be here soon," Lysander insisted firmly.
But how could a hastily prepared dress compare to Splendid, especially one designed and crafted by its founder? It was rare and unique! Giselle didn't want to take it off. She was ready to make a fuss, but noticing the cold expression on Lysander's face, she dared not say anything more.
Still, she couldn't just take it off without a fight. "I'll take it off after I've given my speech on stage..." "No." Lysander's response was immediate and absolute.
Giselle clenched her teeth, swallowing her protests. Yet, she couldn't help but ask, "Lysander, who's trying to harm me?" Lysander glanced at her, replying coolly, "I've already taken care of it." That was his way of telling her to drop the subject.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGiselle had no choice but to bite her tongue, though she was determined to find out who was behind it all once she got home. She wouldn't let anyone who dared cross her get away with it! Soon, the new dress arrived, and Giselle reluctantly changed into it.
Though this gown was also expensive and beautiful, it couldn't compare to the Moonblush Roses. Moreover, changing right after the performance would surely spark gossip.
Feeling downcast, Giselle leaned against Lysander, shedding tears pitifully.
"Lysander, chwithtonight, won't you? It's been days since you stayed at my place. Adrian and I miss you." With Adrian living at the Harvey family estate, it served as a convenient excuse.
Hearing this, Lysander, feeling guilty about the dress incident and considering the matter with Adrian, nodded in agreement.
The deep winter night descended.
Lysander had the extravagant Moonblush Roses gown, worth over three million, delivered.
With the dress in hand, Jade lost interest in continuing the evening at the gala and decided to leave with Mila, heading to the Metropolitan Hospital.
It was a promise made.
Mila, concerned about Jade's health, insisted she have a full check-up after the event.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the car moved along the road, Jade turned to look at Mila, who sat silently beside her, appearing a bit despondent. "Regarding the dress incident earlier, I didn't expose Lysander and Giselle's dirty laundry to back you up. Are you upset with me, Auntie?" Mila was momentarily taken aback but quickly shook her head.
"Auntie, I understand. This must be handled as a business matter; personal issues would only complicate things further. The personal matters between us—I'll handle them myself." Jade gave her a scrutinizing look and nodded. "You're smart, so how did you end up with someone like him?" Mila sighed. "..." Jade was still indignant about Mila's marriage to Lysander. It was because of him that she and her niece had been apart for years. She couldn't stand him!
Though she knew elders shouldn't meddle in the younger generation's affairs, Jade couldn't help but say, ме The sooner youn't h "The sooner you get the divorce done, the better. If you need any help, just say the word. For you, I can swallow my pride." Mila hesitated for a moment.
She did need help.
She was determined to get the divorce, but Lysander refused to m engage in any discussions. She in wanted to go to court, yet no lawyer in Kingsford dared to take her case because of Lysander.
She couldn't even ask her lawyer friends for help, fearing a repeat of the Miranda incident, which could put her friends in jeopardy. She'd been at her wits' end these past few days.
Now that her aunt was back, even though it had been years since they last met and she wasn't sure of her aunt's current situation, today's events made it clear her aunt wasn't afraid of the Montgomery family.
Should she ask for her aunt's help? Chapter 80 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.
