Chapter 481

Imani immediately apologized to Laney in broken English.

“I’m sorry. l’ve been living in France for a long time and I’m used to speaking in French. I’m afraid my English is getting a little rusty now.”

Before Laney could respond, Kelly interrupted her, saying in flawless French, “It’s not your fault at all, ma’am. You only spoke simple French words just now and I assume everyone here should have understand it.”

Imani smiled at Kelly and replied, “Your French is very fluent. Have you lived in France before?”

Kelly smiled confidently.

“I lived in Paris for half a year and learned French on my own.”

Imani was taken a bit aback by that.

“That’s impressive.”

Kelly smiled shyly.

From the corner of her eyes, she noticed that Laney was being ignored.

This made her smile even wider.

Vera frowned and sighed. She didn’t like how Kelly managed to steal all of Laney’s thunder but felt powerless to stop it.

Besides, at least it didn’t seem like Laney was interested in being the center of attention.

Vera could do nothing but look away.

At the same time, while Imani was talking with Kelly, she couldn’t help but look over at Laney. She decided to take the initiative to talk to Laney. She asked her, “Mrs. Harding, may I ask where you buy this dress? The design is so unique I’ve always wanted to have a dress like that. French styles don’t really suit my taste.”

She was extremely interested in the dress Laney was wearing.

Kelly’s smile froze on her face. She had been sure she was going to win but was miffed to discover that Imani was talking to Laney again. She immediately interrupted them.

“Mrs. Harding’s dress is made by a designer she randomly discovered. If you want, ma’am, I can introduce you to a studio with even real talented designers.”

Because Laney couldn’t understand practically any French, now she could belittle Natalie as she wanted. laney sensed that something was wrong, however. She frowned and asked loudly, “Kelly, wasn’t Mrs. Sampson asking me who designed the dress?”

Kelly didn’t say a word in response.

Laney immediately continued, saying, “My mother-in-law hired Natalie Larson from W Marks Studio to design the dress for me.”
