Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

“What do you mean?” Emma’s expression turned grim in an instant.

“Although there are quite some jewelry pieces on this dress, the pearls around the chest are in small pieces. In other words, the dress hasn’t been designed for demure women. Instead, only an elegant and capable woman can pull it off.”

Not only had Elspeth explained who the dress was for, but she had also humiliated Emma.

She had looked into Emma’s background and realized that the latter didn’t come from an influential family.

Emma’s family could be considered rich, but it was to a certain extent. As such, she didn’t have any elegance to speak of.

On the other hand, even when Yelena blew her top, she wouldn’t cross the boundary and embarrass herself, nor would she make anyone despise her.

She remained elegant most of the time, except when she cursed in foul language.

“Therefore, the dress is more suitable for Yelena in comparison.”

Although the Sullivan Family kept a low profile, they were extremely powerful. It was a wonder why Emma was so untactful by offending Yelena repeatedly.

Yelena was pleased that her friend was standing up for her by humiliating Emma. She’s such a good friend!

Emma was exasperated as she pointed at the staff member and asked angrily, “Who do you think will suit the dress better?”

“I think Miss Sullivan will look better in the dress… Before their arrival, Mr. Winthrop placed a deposit of several million with us.”

A smile formed on Elspeth’s face. Callum proved to be helpful when they needed a hand. He’s done a great job.

“How dare you?! All of you have joined forces to oppress me. I’ll share this incident with the media and expose your wrongdoings to the public!”

When Elspeth heard that, she almost broke into laughter.

“You’re free to do so, but there’s not a need for that.”

Emma thought that Elspeth was timid, so she lifted her chin arrogantly. “If you’re afraid of getting your wrongdoings exposed, be more tactful and give the dress to me.”

“That’s not what I meant and I’m not afraid. I just want to let you know that I’m the designer of this dress, so I can stop it from getting sold at any moment.”
