Holding a luxurious gift box, Alfred handed it to Arielle with a smile. “Ms. Arielle, Ms. Actonward has
prepared this gown for you. Since Mrs.
Southall isn’t at home, she said she was worried that you didn’t prepare one. Hence, she took the Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
liberty of doing so.”
Arielle raised her eyebrow slightly.
Since when did Yvette become so kind as to prepare a gown for me? It must be a trap. I had better be
more vigilant.
However, Arielle didn’t reveal her true emotions. Instead, she received the box with a smile and even
opened it in front of Alfred.
“Wow! It’s beautiful!” Arielle exclaimed.
Alfred’s eyes were filled with disdain.
Mrs. Southall even claimed that Arielle was as sly as a fox. But now, isn’t she just an innocent and vain
little giri?
Hiding his contempt, Alfred replied with a smile, “It’s good that you like it. If you wear this gown to Ms.
Acton ward’s birthday party, she will definitely be delighted.”
Arielle nodded. “Don’t worry. I will not disappoint Yvette. In that case, let me try it on, and I will wear it to
the birthday party.” Alfred acknowledged, “That’s wonderful. After all, it would be rude if you didn’t wear
the gown she prepared for you. Anyway, please go ahead and try it on. Feel free to let me know if you
have any problems.”
“Alright. Thanks, Alfred.”
“Don’t mention it. It’s the least I can do.” Alfred
left, smiling
Arielle maintained the wide grin on her face until Alfred was out of sight –
Closing the door behind him with a frosty gaze, she laughed at herself in a self-deprecating manner. At
this rate, I’ll get an award for Best Actress.
Turning back into her bedroom, she carefully opened the box Yvette had presented her.
Inside, there was a gown, a pair of heels, and some accessories. Everything she needed was there.
Arielle examined the items carefully and even used a special method to test the material. Strangely,
she didn’t find anything wrong with them. After trying them on, she verified that the gown and shoes
fitted without any problems at all. Can it be that Yvette didn’t sabotage the items and sincerely prepared
them for me? With the gown on, Arielle twirled herself in the mirror. It was a black-themed gown where
the back and collarbone portions were covered with lace. It looked gorgeous and dignified, just like a
charming black swan in the middle of a lake.
The gown was gorgeous regardless of whichever angle one looked at it. If she wore the gown to
Yvette’s birthday party, she would undoubtedly be the focus of everyone’s attention.
It was just that… Isshe really that kind?
Arielle dispelled that thought at once.
After all, no one would want to be outshone on their own birthday.
Therefore, something was definitely amiss, just that she had yet to discover what
What could it possibly be?
As time flew by, a car arrived at the monastery entrance.
Shandie, who had been told of the news by Louisa, was eagerly waiting there. Finally, she saw the car
arrive at sunset.
With her luggage in tow, Shandie headed toward the car.
Suddenly, a hand appeared out of nowhere and stopped her.
As Shandie lifted her gaze, her eyes met with
Cindy’s worried expression.
The moment Shandie saw Cindy, she asked coldly, “What do you want?”
“Shandie! Where are you going?” Holding Shandie back, Cindy anxiously asked, “Why didn’t you tell
me that you are going out?”
Henrick had called Louisa directly. Hence, Cindy wasn’t aware.
Furthermore, Shandie had lost all trust in Cindy. Therefore, she too didn’t inform her.
Nevertheless, Cindy’s intuition told her that wherever Shandie was going, it was definitely not a good
idea to do so.
