Anastasia heard them discussing another girl, so she listened silently. She reckoned that a girl brought up in the Presgrave Family would definitely be an outstanding individual. After Anastasia got to know the Presgrave Family better, she realized that they maintained a very strict family hierarchy and that they placed importance on the education their children received.
At the same time, in the direction of the side door, there was a figure that walked in. It was a fashionably-dressed and elegant girl.
Anastasia lifted her head and noticed that the girl was stunning and elegant. She resembled an elegant swan.
“Wow! Lorelai has changed so much. She has become so pretty,” someone exclaimed.
“The Presgrave Family is full of beauty indeed.”
Lorelai lifted her head and glanced at the girl next to Harriet. That was the woman Elliot was about to marry, and she had a simple dress on. She appeared quite elegant, and her luscious black hair, which was swept to the side, accentuated her delicate features. Her eyes were quite attractive with a clear look in them.
The girl that Elliot is about to marry is indeed exceptionally stunning. There was a slightly complicated feeling that welled up within Lorelai.
“I’m sorry for being late.” Lorelai finished saying that and headed toward Harriet. “Grandma.”
“Lorelai, you’ve grown into such a beautiful girl. Come on over and sit by my side.” Coincidentally, there was another empty spot next to Harriet, so Lorelai took a seat next to Harriet and greeted Anastasia. “Nice to meet you, Mrs. Presgrave, I’m Lorelai.”
“Nice to meet you,” Anastasia greeted Lorelai with a smile.
“Look at them. With these two beautiful ladies in attendance, we’re insignificant next to them,” one of the women said with a smile.
Instantly, the entire room erupted into laughter while Anastasia and Lorelai revealed shy looks on their faces.
Subsequently, the atmosphere of the room became less tense. As everyone chatted about the past, suddenly, someone piped up, “I remember Lorelai and Elliot were very close when they were kids. She used to trail after Elliot every day!”
Lorelai responded graciously, “That happened in the past when we were kids. I don’t quite recall it anymore.”
“Yes. Lorelai was quite a wild child when she was young,” Kendra added.
