The girl's hair was casually pinned up, with a few strands falling loose, curling gently against her long neck.
She still wore almost no makeup, save for a touch of lipstick, yet her beauty was so striking and vivid it was breathtaking.
Effortlessly, she completely outshone the brilliant, fiery red of the dress.
She exuded an air of dignity, elegance, and unattainability.
It was as if she were born to stand at the pinnacle of the world, to be admired by all!
That was… Serena!
Even the powerful figures who were accustomed to seeing beautiful women and moved in high-society circles found their eyes fixed on Serena the moment she walked out.
Hailey’s breath hitched, her pupils dilating in disbelief as she stared at the girl who seemed to have transformed…
No!
She hadn't really changed.
Even in a simple white T-shirt and jeans, Serena's striking features were just as outstanding.
But now…
She possessed an even more stunning and powerful presence!
It made Hailey, who had spent a fortune—three million dollars—on her own custom gown, instantly pale in comparison!
No!
She even felt that Serena now… was even more dazzling than the meticulously dressed Isabella!
And that evening gown…
As the daughter of Vaelion City's wealthiest man, Isabella’s gown should have been a priceless, custom-made piece by a world-renowned master designer!
But… she felt that the gown Serena was wearing could completely eclipse Isabella’s!
Could it be… that Serena’s gown was even more expensive than Isabella’s?
Hailey’s eyes turned bloodshot.
She wanted to scream out that Serena was just some lowlife from the slums.
She wanted to tell everyone that Serena was just a fraud who got by on her looks!
She refused to believe that the dress Serena was wearing was some masterpiece!
It was definitely just some cheap knockoff she bought from a bargain website!
How much could it possibly be worth?
“That—that’s a custom piece from YB, isn’t it?! Look, next to the ruby cutout on her waist, isn’t that the legendary designer Cloud’s exclusive logo?!”
One sharp-eyed socialite spotted the crucial detail, and her eyes lit up. “Which family is she from? A custom piece by Master Cloud isn’t something you can get just with money. This woman… her status must be extraordinary!”
“Oh my god! A custom piece from Master Cloud! My life’s greatest wish is to one day commission a custom design from him!”
