My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 888:

Before Carrie could finish, Aliza interjected, “Carrie, are you suggesting Miss Hinks doesn’t have a figure as fine as yours?”

She appeared to defend Alethea, her tone indignant as she continued, “Just because you have the Morrison family’s support here doesn’t mean you can behave as you wish. Miss Hinks is from Egoshire. Here, we show greater respect to our guests. I could overlook you competing with me for the dress and making remarks about my figure because I’m just an ordinary person, but Miss Hinks has a perfect figure, and still, you continue to behave cruelly.”

Carrie dismissed her comments and turned directly to Alethea. “I didn’t mean it that way. If you like the gown, I can ask the designer to adjust it to your size. However, it might take a couple of days to be ready.”

Alethea raised her hand, holding the gown briefly before letting it drop. The dress fell to the floor. Without hesitation, Alethea stepped directly on it, fixing Carrie with a cold gaze. “Who do you think you are? Why would I wear something you’ve worn?”

The designer, witnessing this, began to sweat nervously.
