Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez novel Chapter 135

aring a previously worn dress was a huge embarrassment in high society. If it were true, the reputation of the Chambers family’s Yvette, who had just been found in the countryside, would be ruined, and she’d be utterly humiliated. 

Nellie and Winona stood by eagerly, watching Lana. ‘It’d be great if she really had seen it before. That would mean Yvette is just wearing a hand–me–down dress, and there’d be some real drama to watch! 

Winona’s lips curled into a mocking smile. Her previously gloomy mood had lifted. She thought maybe Sienna had just grabbed a second–hand dress to deal with Yvette: ‘If that’s the case, today… Yvette will be the biggest joke!‘ 

All eyes were on Yvette, who stood in the center of the garden. 

Yvette looked up slightly, her expression calm. Her deep eyes were cold and mysterious, like dark ink hiding a vast whirlpool. Her long, veil–like lashes cast shadows, and she swept her gaze lightly over the crowd without saying a word. 

Once again, her beauty stunned everyone. However, some thought her silence meant she was admitting the girl’s accusation, that the dress really was second–hand. 

Holding back her excitement, Winona stepped forward. “Wearing a second–hand dress is a big taboo at our high–society events. How about this, I have an unworn dress in my room. Why don’t you come with me and change into it?” Winona spoke with sincerity, acting as if she was doing Yvette a huge favor. 

Yet, the people around her found her words odd. She claimed to be helping her sister, but if Yvette wore one of Winona’s dresses, she’d be even more humiliated, always a step behind Winona. The girls who usually got along with Winona knew who to help, urging Yvette to go change. 

“Winona is so kind, being so thoughtful of her sister at a time like this.” 

“I think you should go change, Ms. Zeller.” 

“Yeah, go on, change.”

Some people, afraid of offending the Chambers family, muttered quietly. 

Zeke looked at Yvette, standing there alone, and felt proud. ‘If I don’t take a shot at her now, when will I?‘ So, he stepped forward and joined in. “Go change with Winona. The banquet’s about to start, and we’re running out of time.” 

Nellie didn’t say anything this time, seeing that Zachary was growing more and more upset. “There’s no need for me to get involved when these people are doing it for me. I don’t want to make him mad

No one noticed that Lana, who had started all of this, was sweating profusely, trying to speak but unable to get a word in. 

Richard was also watching Yvette with a smug grin, as was Robert. ‘It’s a good thing I was smart enough to break off the engagement with Yvette early and switch to Winona. Otherwise, our whole Carter family would’ve been humiliated today!

Yulia couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for Yvette, but then again, she thought it was Yvette’s own fault. ‘She’s been back with the Chambers family for so long, how does she still not understand the rules?‘ 

Zachary’s face had darkened considerably, feeling suffocated by the scornful looks around him. He also believed that Sienna might’ve just grabbed some dress that had been worn before to deal with Yvette. ‘If it weren’t for me, Yvette wouldn’t be so humiliated. “Enough! My daughter from the Chambers family can wear whatever she likes! There’s no need for everyone to be so judgmental!” 

Winona’s eyes grew fierce. ‘Dad is siding with Yvette again, even at the cost of offending so many people! 

Seeing that Zachary was genuinely angry, people began to feel uneasy. Though the Chambers family had declined, they were still one of the four major families, and not someone these small families could mess with.
