Chapter 37.
Bianca Taylor wore a white off–shoulder gown. The dress was made of
woven fabric decorated with sparkling sequins, making her look like a
little princess shining among the stars.
Bianca glanced at Isabella Taylor. Once that beautiful face appeared
at the party, she could imagine what a stir it would cause.
She had really not wanted to bring Isabella at all.
Although Isabella came from the countryside, Bianca had to admit
that Isabella’s face was truly flawless – nothing could overshadow her
beauty.
Bianca clenched her palms, and a flash of viciousness crossed her
seemingly innocent face.
Bianca tells herself it is fine.
Soon Isabella would make a fool of herself at this party and become

Olivia Taylor got out of the car and looked at Isabella with concern. “This is someone else’s turf. You better behave yourself and do not embarrass the Taylor Family!”

The Martinez Family, though not one of the four major families, was one of the powerful families second only to them, far above these smaller households in status.
With the Rodriguez Family climbing up to the Martinez Family, they gained considerable support and their status rose dramatically.
The Taylor Family’s standing now could not even reach the Rodriguez Family’s threshold.

But thanks to Bianca being good friends with Abigail Rodriguez for
several years, the Taylor Family was qualified to attend.
“Mrs. Taylor, you’re here too.”
“Long time no see.”
“Your Bianca is growing more and more elegant…”
Olivia was chatting with several ladies while accompanying Bianca, when a gloomy gaze from the second floor immediately fixed on
Isabella behind Olivia.
“Abigail, that bitch is here,” Evelyn said.
Abigail looked at Isabella’s face and felt very unhappy. Her dislike for
her deepened.
“Give me the thing.”
Evelyn and the others immediately handed her a crystal crown.
Abigail took the item and walked toward Isabella…
Isabella found it boring and was about to find a quiet corner to get
