The Jilted Heiress' Return To The High Life

Chapter 898:

Leah’s voice, cold and sharp, sliced through the tense air. “Corrine, this is Bruce’s and my engagement party. How much longer do you plan to make a spectacle of yourself? Others might not see through you, but do you really think Bruce and I don’t? Be honest—could you ever create a design like this? Could you even dream of making a dress like this?” Her tone carried a weary frustration, but beneath it lay a clear accusation, each word aimed directly at Corrine.

Tracy stepped in, her expression firm. “Corrine, I’ve told you before—love isn’t something you can force. So why keep stirring up trouble? We chose to let the past go, to move forward, yet here you are, ruining Leah and Bruce’s big day. Isn’t this a bit much?”

She folded her arms, her voice turning sharper. “You claim Adalynn stole a design you threw away. But have you ever thought about the difference between you and her? If you were truly gifted, why would you have clung to the Ashton family all these years? If you had real talent, why haven’t you ever proven yourself in a fashion competition?”
