Chapter 131
When Sylvie reached home, she found Evie smoking on the staircase.
Her brows knitted together in confusion. She was aware that Evie smoked, but she always did it in a private corner. Obviously, when their grandfather wasn't home, Evie didn't care about keeping anything private.
As always, Sylvie climbed the stairs and tried to ignore her. It wasn't just her, Evie hardly spoke to anyone in the house. Sylvie had never seen her cracking a joke with even her own sister-June. "Yesterday was entertaining," To her outmost surprise, Evie spoke up.
Sylvie stopped walking, three steps ahead of her. Although, the smoke inconvenienced her, she was more intrigued by the fact that the quiet, short-tempered sister was speaking to her for the first time on her own accord. "And impressive," Evie added, tapping the end of her cigar on the step below her. "Never knew you had it in you."
Turning slightly, she leaned her back against the wall so she could look at Sylvie. "I was wondering when you'd finally get it up and stop letting those bitches take what is yours. Guess you aren't so dumb afterall."
There was a certain shadow in her eyes. If Evie hadn't been born into a rich family, she'd have probably been one of those girls who enjoyed living on the streets. Most times, Evie acted like she had no interest in the family and company and wished she were somewhere else.
Not knowing what reaction to give, Sylvie smiled. "Thanks... I guess?"
Evie scoffed, turning away and returning to her cigarette. Shaking her head, Sylvie proceeded to her room.

"I think this shade is perfect!"
"Come on, Sylvie, don't add any more of it."
""Yes. Let's do this."
"No! Of course, I'm sure. I was a pro at makeup, remember?"
Ruby went on, giving Sylvie directions on what to wear and apply through the video call. They've been at it for the past one hour, and while Sylvie had been protesting most of the time, it turned out to be really good. She was putting on a long, flowing gown of deep gold, the lavish material swirling around her like a golden wave.
Although ur wasn't made by her, it was extremely fine.
Her makeup was dark-Ruby's suggestions-and her hair was brushed backwards with a center parting in front. In the end, a part of her was glad she'd listened to Ruby because she turned out looking really pretty. Ruby
had been extra happy over the past three days after learning of the whole she and Astrid drama. She was glad that Sylvie's work had been acknowledged and helped them get the timeless Tale deal.
"By the way, tell me you'll be at the En Vogue Affair weekend." Ruby said while Sylvie fixed her earrings.
"Come on, Ruby, are we still on this?" Sylvie pouted.
And there it went-Ruby spending the next couple of minutes stating her points while Sylvie wore her jewelries.
She didn't have any bold necklace on. Her dress was covered to the top and a necklace on it wasn't necessary. But beneath
