Sandra had a whole plan, and she even prepared a dance to further her personal agenda tonight. However, all of it went down the drain, and it was all because of Noelle. 

Noelle wore a mask, and her appearance was completely different from her usual getup. However, Sandra recognized her at first glance. 

At that moment, Sandra had the strong urge to make a dash at Noelle and tear off the latter’s mask or just give her a hard shove. However, she did nothing of the sort. After all, she would’ve destroyed the image she had painstakingly maintained all these years. 

Sandra remained where she stood. She nearly ground her teeth to dust with how much gnashing she was doing. But aside from that, there was nothing else she could’ve done. 

This moment suddenly took Sandra back to when she was 14 years old. It was the time when she heard that Noelle would rejoin the Swanson family. 

For the last ten years, Sandra had reveled in all the attention and affection’she received in the Swanson family. She thought that was how life was going to go for the rest of time. 

Then, Noelle came back, and she was Craig and Matilda’s biological daughter. Sandra was supposed to return everything she owned to Noelle. It was going to happen. The Swansons might even kick her out. 

Naturally, Sandra wasn’t about to let all of that happen. So, she started treating Craig and Matilda better. She could also see the rift between Noelle and her parents. So, she clung to it tightly and did her best to drive a bigger wedge between them. 

Sandra deliberately showed Noelle how intimate she was with Craig and Matilda. She also made herself look more thoughtful and affectionate in front of her parents. 

Sandra had spent ten years together with Craig and Matilda. So, she knew them and their habits better than Noelle did. In the high society, the people their age were all her friends. She had completely replaced Noelle as the heiress of the Swanson family. 

Be that as it may, 

may, Beatrice straight up said that Hendrix would only get married to someone who carried the blood of the Swanson family when they talked about the arranged marriage. 

That was when Sandra felt utterly powerless. It seemed like there was nothing she could do to change this fact, no matter how hard she tried. 

The same feeling rose in her chest now. It was effortless and graceful for Noelle to grab the limelight and snatch away everything she ever wanted. 

That was when Sandra realized that the things she managed to take away from Noelle were actually something the latter didn’t care about in the first place. However, she could never get anything she truly wanted. 

Sandra glared at Noelle, and her gaze became increasingly hateful. She was boring holes in Noelle with her eyes. 

With that said, Noelle didn’t seem to sense any of it. On the contrary, she was having a blast tonight. She was wearing a mask, which granted her peace of mind. 

Ever since Noelle was caught in that particularly terrifying gaze when she was 12 years old, she had been hiding her body very carefully. But now, she didn’t need to worry about that. 

After the dance ended, Brandon invited Noelle to another. This time, she didn’t turn him down. By now, the band was already playing another song. It was clearly more upbeat, and it had livened up the scene.
