“Don’t move!”
“I’m sorry, Ms. Wand. I have mysophobia,” Shanae explained calmly.
Although she seemed to be nice to Sasha, she was clearly implying that the latter was a dirty woman for peeling shrimps with her bare hands at such a grand party.
Everyone around them got excited upon seeing that. That’s right! That’s how you teach the bumpkin a lesson!
Sasha clearly understood that. She withdrew her hand and sat down without saying a word.
“I’m sorry. I’m a mother. I don’t have a choice because I have to take care of my children.”
“I don’t think so. I know many elegant mothers. Ms. Wand, you’re one of the Jadesons now. It’s better to take care of your image outside the house from now on. Otherwise, you’ll tarnish the family’s reputation. For instance, I suggest you not wear this dress again in the future.”
Shanae started insulting Sasha’s gown.
The people who were watching the drama got even more excited. Some of them were even recording the scene with their smartphones.
“Oh? What do you mean?”
Sasha lowered her head and looked at her dress.
With a disdainful look, Shanae questioned, “Ms. Wand, don’t you know that this dress is outdated? It came out last year. I can still recognize it even though you modified it. Let me tell you this. Everyone wears customized gowns in Jadeborough!”
Her words immediately caused an uproar in the hall.
“The granddaughter-in-law of the Jadesons is wearing an outdated customized gown? She even modified it so others won’t be able to recognize it!”
“Where did this woman come from? How could she be so ignorant?”
“How is she qualified as the granddaughter-in-law of the Jadesons?”
Everyone’s jaws fell open.
They were treating Sasha as a laughing stock.
Devin was infuriated by the incident.
He instantly glanced at Jonathan, whose face had darkened terribly. At the sight, Devin wanted to get up to ease the situation.
However, Sasha suddenly spoke.
“Yes, this is an outdated customized gown. However, I’m willing to wear it as compared to a fake gown.”
“What did you say?”
Shanae was stunned.
Sasha smiled and stood up again. Without saying a word, she stretched her arm toward Shanae’s chest.
“Ah!”
Shanae’s shriek filled the entire hall.
