Chapter 248
…
Two days later, the dinner party went on as scheduled.
Since Miss L.ady was getting big, the rich and famous from the upper-class were all here. Most of them were socialites and wealthy women.
Madeline had been ready for a while, but at this moment, she felt complicated.
She knew Eloise would be here tonight as well.
This person was her mother who gave birth to her and lost her.
After she got the call from the manager of the headquarters, Madeline sashayed into the venue.
When she walked in, she saw a lot of socialites and wealthy ladies gathering around while chatting. They were boasting about the expensive, limited, and custom-made jewelry that they were wearing.
When Madeline walked in, she earned shocked gazes from the guests there.
Her champagne-colored dress accentuated her perfect figure while her black hair contrasted the fairness of her flawless skin. She would leave a trail of sweet fragrance wherever she went. One would not be able to stop themselves from taking in a few more sniffs.
“Is that woman Vera Quinn?”
“I heard she’s the one who won the shop on First Crystal Street. She’s even working with Miss L.ady and is the shop owner.”
“She’s the shop owner of Miss L.ady on First Crystal Street? She’s so beautiful and talented.”
“Talented? I heard she’s just some rich man’s sugar baby.”
“No wonder. I was wondering how she could have such a nice life without any backup. She finally has a chance to show her face now that Miss L.ady’s anniversary dinner is being hosted in Glendale.”
Madeline heard all kinds of malicious questions and suspicions coming from around her. She only smiled softly and continued walking.
After a while, she saw the manager from the headquarters as well as the head of design of Miss L.ady. They were talking to a few clients.
She was not seeing things. Among the clients, two of them were Meredith and Eloise.
While they were talking, the manager of the headquarters and the head of design spotted Madeline. “Everyone, let me introduce you to this lady.”
