Shanae was dumbstruck.
All the other guests gasped in shock when they listened to Devin’s words.
Business mogul? What’s that?
All the guests were just poor people with empty titles. Even those that came from the most prominent families in Jadeborough would not easily throw their money around.
It was even more impossible to send other people to their graves.
Silence ensued.
At that moment, they felt completely humiliated. They could not believe that they were insulting Sasha for wearing an outdated dress just now.
Their faces turned red in embarrassment.
Shanae felt humiliated as well.
While she was wearing a fake dress and insulting Sasha, she had no idea that the latter was actually a true wealthy woman living in the upper-class society.
No wonder she could tell that my dress is fake.
“Forget about it. I believe Ms. Woods did not do that on purpose. She’s still young, so she’s not familiar with how society works. Ms. Woods, if you like Shadows, I’ll gift you some of the designs.”
Everyone was surprised by Sasha’s generosity.
Not only did she not want Shanae’s apology, she even offered to gift the latter several of her own brand designs.
Sebastian’s eyes twitched.
Yet, Shanae was so mad that she almost passed out.
She felt insulted once again. This woman’s clearly humiliating me! She’s trying to tell me that as the owner of Shadows, she can gift me the dresses since I can’t afford them!
She had never been humiliated in such a manner.
Beside her, Richard’s face turned ashen upon hearing that.
In the end, they could not bear to stay any longer. As everyone watched them, they left in utter shame.
Since they had left, all the guests were embarrassed to stay there. They started leaving one by one after finding some excuses.
In the end, only Stephen, his wife, and Janice were still there.
“Are you happy now? You’ve destroyed the party.”
Jonathan was unsatisfied after Sebastian ruined the party that he had painstakingly prepared.
Sebastian’s fingers clenched.
Seeing that he was about to burst in anger, Sasha quickly stopped him.
“Grandpa, we appreciate your thoughtfulness. However, I think it was necessary and appropriate to do that. Otherwise, they’ll treat the Jadesons as uncivilized and cowardly people.”
