The Jilted Heiress' Return To The High Life

Chapter 340:

Suddenly, Corrine’s attention was drawn to a few familiar faces among the attendees. Leah and Bruce entered, with Rita trailing closely behind.

Bruce had become a prominent figure in Lyhaton since the Ashton family’s impressive resurgence, regarded as a burgeoning star with vast potential. His newfound status made him a sought-after partner among the daughters of wealthy families.

Yet, his involvement in a scandal with Leah, the heiress of the Burgess family, during Ashton Group’s anniversary had tarnished his reputation somewhat. Onlookers scrutinized Leah as she stood beside Bruce, taking in every detail of her appearance.

Today, Leah chose a champagne-colored strapless mermaid dress that clung to her body, enhancing her elegant silhouette. Her hair flowed down her shoulders in soft waves, subtly revealing her collarbone. Her beauty drew many admiring glances, particularly from the gentlemen present.

Quietly, she averted her eyes, masking her true feelings. The spotlight thrilled her, and she had quickly become the event’s focal point.

“Leah, this venue is breathtaking!” Rita couldn’t help but marvel at the lavish sculptures and the immense crystal chandelier above. Without Leah, Rita might never have experienced such opulence. She had looked into the Forreal auction, knowing it was an event for the wealthy and influential.
