Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 142

Since joining the entertainment industry, Emilia only managed to take on small advertising gigs and

minor roles.

Most of the characters she played were tasteless roles that emphasized showing off her body. When she made headlines, most words used to describe her were bold and revealing.

Rumor had it that she had recently met a wealthy businessman, and the two were preparing to get married after dating for a few months.

Christina set off to deliver the dress. As she approached the mansion, a maid greeted her at the door and ushered her inside.

The villa was decorated with luxurious furnishings and opulent decorations.

“It’s no lesser than Scenic Garden Manor, right?” Emilla strutted down from the second floor.

She had demanded Christina deliver the dress in person so that she could flaunt her residence and belittle her rival.

After all, Emilia was convinced she was just as good as Christina, if not better.

Christina nonchalantly slid her hands into her coat pockets and said in a relaxed tone, “Here’s your dress. So long as you haven’t put on any extra pounds in the past few days, it should fit just fine.”

With that, Christina turned to leave.

Emilia’s intention was never to collect the dress. Rather, she sought to flaunt her wealth and undermine Christina.

However, Christina’s nonchalant attitude caught her off guard. It even seemed she was mocking her, which made Emilia feel foolish.

Refusing to accept this, Emilia rushed after Christina and grabbed her hand. “Are you jealous of my success? Are you afraid that I’ll see your despondent look? Is that why you are in such a hurry to leave?”

Christina stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Emilia. “You don’t need others to decide whether you’re happy or not. Are you seeking my validation because material possessions can’t fulfill your innermost desires?”

Although her voice was gentle, her bright eyes gleamed with an icy coldness that seemed to penetrate the hearts of those around her.

Christina’s words caught Emilia off guard. Her eyes widened with fury as she pulled out an invitation. “If you’re not envious of me, come to my engagement party tonight,” she said, thrusting the card into Christina’s hand.

it proves that you

Emilia shot her sister a provoking look and continued. “If you don’t dare to show up, it can’t bear to see me succeed. Don’t pretend that it doesn’t bother you.”

Christina snorted derisively and accepted the invitation. “Very well, I’ll be there on time and steal the spotlight from you.”

“You…” Before Emilia could finish her sentence, Christina had already walked out of the door.

When Christina returned to Scenic Garden Manor, she changed into a new outfit and did her makeup.

Even though she didn’t know why Emilia was so insistent on her attending the engagement party, she had already agreed to it. Hence, she had to show up.

As Christina was about to leave, she heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

Quickly, she grabbed a blanket from the sofa and covered herself, leaving only her head visible.

Nathaniel entered the room; his chiseled and handsome features, deep black eyes, and commanding eyebrows emanated a powerful aura.

Sebastian followed behind him; they looked like they had some errands to run.

“You’re going out?” Nathaniel stopped next to her.

“Nope!” Christina immediately responded with a faint smile.

She planned to show up at Emilia’s party for a short while and then return. Hence, there was no need

to trouble Nathaniel.

Moreover, she didn’t think there was a need to ask for Nathaniel’s help to deal with someone as insignificant as Emilia.
