The True Heiress Reborn And Slays (Alicia Delaney) novel Chapter 116

Seeing Sophia dressed like she wanted the whole world to know she was going to a banquet only made him more annoye

But Sophia didn’t notice anything wrong with Lucas‘ expression.

The moment she saw him walk in, her eyes lit up. A bright smile spread across her face.

“Lucas, you’re back!” she called out sweetly, walking quickly toward him.

She stopped a step away, opened her arms slightly, and spun around in front of him. The skirt swayed gently with her mov Her face was full of eager anticipation.

“Lucas, look at me. Do I look good?” she asked.

Lucas wanted to tell her to go change into something more elegant and appropriate.

The dress she had on was beautiful, sure–but too flashy, too much.

But when he saw the hope in Sophia’s eyes, he swallowed his criticism.

He could tell she’d put a ton of effort into her look for tonight.

That flawless makeup probably took hours–starting before dawn.

And to fit into that tight dress and show off her perfect figure, she’d likely barely eaten since yesterday.

Right now, Sophia was like a kid trying her hardest to score an A on a test for her teacher. Even if she went about it the wrong i the effort and care were real.

Thinking that, Lucas‘ heart softened.

He still had feelings for Sophia, after all.

Lucas let out a silent sigh, hid the flicker of impatience in his eyes, and put on a gentle expression

“Okay.” Lucas nodded. He didn’t look at her again. His gaze turned toward the stairs, and he started walking that way.

But he’d only taken one step when light footsteps came from above.

Riley had changed and was walking slowly down.

The moon–white silk fishtail dress flowed around her like liquid moonlight, gently hugging her figure.

The simple mandarin collar was buttoned all the way up to her neck, giving off an understated, elegant beauty.

The slits on both sides of the skirt were just right. As she walked, they revealed glimpses of her perfect calves. Every step was graceful.

Lucas had seen that fishtail dress in a custom catalog. The first time he laid eyes on it, he knew it would suit Riley perfectly.

And it did, no, even better than he’d imagined.

Riley was so beautiful that he couldn’t look away.

His Adam’s apple bobbed involuntarily.

Sophia saw all of this.

She watched Lucas‘ gaze lock onto Riley the moment she appeared. He had eyes for nothing else.

The light in Sophia’s eyes dimmed, inevitably.

Riley came down the stairs. She didn’t seem to notice the strange atmosphere in the living room.
