A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire novel Chapter 50

She wasn't tall, in a pair of heeled sandals, white lace tulle skirt, black shirt, and a red shawl jacket.

On her gorgeous black bob cut was a cute bowler hat.

Which made her look petite and sophisticated.

She looked young as well, much like a doll.

Trotting over to Nicholas, she affectionately wrapped her arms around his, leaning her whole body on him.

She sweetly smiled as she looked at Nicholas. Eliza was very familiar with that gaze; Raelyn had the same eyes when she looked at Tanner.

The girl seemed to have only realized Eliza's presence, wide-eyed, hostility evidently beneath them.

"Who are you?!"

Her slight fierceness was a stark contrast to her clinginess a second ago.

Facing the sudden interrogation, Eliza was a little stumped.

"Hi, I'm the new student designer, Eliza Stone."

"Eliza Stone?" The girl pondered for a moment before she smiled, looking like something had occurred to her, confident and ostentatious.

"The phony young lady of the Stone family?"

Her words were filled with animosity.

She was indeed a phony young lady; nothing more needed to be said. But why did she target her straight?

Also, how did she know who she was?

Bafflement filled Eliza's gaze; she shouldn't have made any enemies, had she? Not answering her question, she stood with her back straight, silent.

Seeing how she did not respond, the girl smiled.

"What? Don't tell me you don't know who I am? Then again, Raelyn usually attends all the gatherings. I'm not surprised you don't know me."

"Speaking of which, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't even know you exist."

Her words were filled with sarcasm despite the smile on her face.

Being close with Raelyn, Eliza wasn't bothered at all by her words of discord. However, her tone got her frowning a little.

She was probably the young lady of some affluent family. But she didn't have a memory of who she was.

As for Nicholas, his palm had been on his forehead from the moment he saw her, troubled. How did Josephine, the bratty princess of the Ashley family, get in here?!

However, her words got him frowning.

He may not have been familiar with the name Eliza Stone, but he had heard a thing or two about the 'phony young lady of the Stone family'.

Though her last name was Stone, it didn't lead him to make the connection with how she carried herself. She was very different from her older sister.

Plus, if she was the second young lady of the Stone family, then the way Tanner came to take her away the other day left a more profound impression on him.

What was their relationship? Didn't everyone say Tanner and Raelyn were in love with each other?

He had thought Tanner found himself a paramour.

Could that paramour actually be his girlfriend's sister…

Taking a gander at Eliza, she was turning out to be more and more interesting…

Coming to a conclusion, he remained silent. He shouldn't get himself involved in a girls' fight. Plus, he wanted to see how Eliza would react to those words.

Used to being bratty, Josephine's words were harsh to people she disliked. With how she spoke to Eliza, it could already be considered as humiliation…

"Should I know you?"

Eliza's calm words got the other two dumbfounded.

"Excuse me?!" Josephine stomped her feet, making a crisp clack as her heels hit the floor.

"I mean, if you don't introduce yourself, how will I know who you are?" Eliza said nonchalantly.

Her fear toward Tanner had a lot to do with Raelyn, as she had told her Tanner wasn't easy to get along with, and he was indeed extremely aloof.

But that didn't mean she was afraid of everyone in the high society. This girl right in front of her looked like she still hadn't reached legal age, super innocent.

"I..." Josephine, who had been high and mighty a second ago, was rendered speechless with anger by her words. She suddenly pouted as though she had suffered a massive grievance.

"Nicky! Can you believe her? She said she doesn't know me!"

She was like a child whining to an adult.

As someone who had been active in the high society's social circle, she basically didn't have to introduce herself. Everyone knew she was the third young lady of the Ashley family just by looking at her and would naturally be nice to her.

She couldn't believe there was actually someone who didn't know her! Had this Eliza Stone been living under a rock?!

"Don't try and change the subject. Answer my question; why are you here?!"

Josephine roared. Why was Eliza Stone with Nicholas?!

"I've told you, I'm the new student designer here."

Eliza smiled, but Josephine was flabbergasted. She had forgotten Eliza had answered her moments ago.

Hearing their conversation, Nicholas burst into laughter.

Eliza was really something. Josephine grew up a spoiled brat; she was the first to render her speechless.

Who knew Eliza could stay so calm facing Josephine's harassment.

He was greatly curious about Eliza; she could always surprise him, be it herself or her relationship with Tanner…

But now wasn't the time to mull over it.

Since Josephine had turned to him for help, it'd be unjustifiable if he didn't say anything.

"Josephine, she's the student designer I hand-picked; she'll be working with me. You've been out for too long; your dad must be worried."

Nicholas said gently, not only standing up for Eliza but having also indirectly asked Josephine to leave.

But of course, Josephine wouldn't get the cue.

"I… I want to work with you too, Nicky."
