Isabelle let out a cold, dismissive laugh. “You don’t even know who Muddlehead is, yet you’ve been name-dropping them all evening to boost your own status. Who gave you the nerve?”

Celeste was rendered completely speechless, a wave of intense humiliation washing over her.

A woman standing nearby, trying to smooth things over, spoke up, “Ms. Show’s gown was a custom commission arranged by Mr. Cross himself, costing over two hundred thousand. Even Mrs. Cross hasn’t received such special treatment, so isn’t it natural she would know Muddlehead?”

“Oh? Mr. Cross commissioned a gown for Ms. Snow?” Diana shot back, her sharp gaze locking onto Celeste.

Celeste’s face immediately paled. She had spoken carelessly in a moment of pride, never imagining the remark would circle back to haunt her like this.

“Isn’t that right, Ms. Snow?” the woman pressed, now growing uneasy herself as she noticed Celeste’s visible discomfort.

Celeste remained silent. Whether Damian had commissioned the gown or not, Isabelle knew the truth-and she was also there as Damian’s wife. Those unaware of Isabelle’s identity were busy whispering, weaving tales about Damian’s supposed special regard for Celeste, while dismissing the unseen Mrs. Cross as a mere placeholder.

“Ms. Snow, Muddlehead doesn’t associate with just anyone,” Isabelle stated with a mocking smile.

Just anyone?

The crowd’s focus subtly shifted from Celeste to Isabelle. Many remembered from the studio’s opening that Isabelle held significant sway at Isadiana Studio-she handled major contracts and client relations, sometimes even overshadowing Diana herself.

Celeste, sensing the shift in the room, decided not to argue further, afraid of truly provoking the wrath of Muddlehead’s actual circle. She swallowed her anger, her fingers gripping her wine glass so tightly the veins stood out on the back of her hand.

Just then, her phone buzzed loudly, cutting through the tense atmosphere. She answered, and her expression turned ashen.

A socialite beside her glanced at her own phone and gasped. “A news alert Zollar Group is under investigation for major tax fraud. The chairman just jumped from his office building.”

Γ Isabelle recalled Zollar Group. At one of the first banquets she attended with Damian, she’d overheard him and Brian disc. sing them-Celeste had pushed for Cypher Group to invest, but the deal was ultimately rejected.

Celeste stared at her phone in pure panic. But the tax scandal wasn’t her main concern. What made her blood run cold was the secondary headline-her father, Sean Snow, had been exposed for sexually harassing multiple female students at the university where he taught.

The story was already exploding across social media, amassing millions of views in minutes. What terrified her more was the missed call from her mother, Keira. The voicemail revealed that Sean had now disappeared

A cold sweat broke out on Celeste’s forehead. Her palms grew clammy, her fingers pale and trembling as they clutched the phone, the case creaking under the pressure.

Meanwhile, the party guests, having grown skeptical of Celeste’s claims, had redirected their attention to Diana. To their surprise, the renowned designer they expected to be aloof was actually quite engaging and willing to chat. They quickly gathered around
