True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 44 His Preference

Joey changed into her favorite starry blue dress and stood in front of the mirror, completely stunned by her reflection.

The dress was strapless with an open back, held together by a thin strap adorned with a lifelike blue butterfly. The floor-length skirt was made of blue tulle, scattered with tiny diamonds that sparkled like stars under the light. The manager couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Winters has great taste. This dress suits Ms. Blackwood perfectly. You look elegant and noble, just like a goddess."

Joey's bad mood from yesterday, caused by Angie, vanished as she admired the dress. She lifted the hem, a slight smile on her lips, and was about to go downstairs to show Sebastian.

Then she saw two familiar figures approaching.

Cordelia was holding Isabella's arm, the two of them as close as mother and daughter, walking towards her with smiles. When Isabella saw Joey's dress, her eyes widened.

She gently shook Cordelia's arm, pouting, "Mrs. Winters, Ms. Blackwood's dress is so beautiful. I want to try it on too."

Cordelia's face turned sour seeing how stunning Joey looked. "A little secretary dressed so beautifully, who are you trying to seduce?"

Joey's eyes, which had been twinkling with a smile, turned cold instantly. There was too much bad blood between her and Cordelia. It was Cordelia who had someone delete the video and steal the evidence, almost framing Joey for intentionally harming Isabella. It was also Cordelia who nearly drove her father to suicide.

Thinking of these things, the coldness in Joey's heart grew stronger. She lifted her delicate face, a beautiful curve forming at the corner of her lips. "Of course, I'm trying to seduce your son. Cordelia, you really know how to ask the obvious." Cordelia was so enraged by her words that her chest tightened. She gritted her teeth and said, "Joey, you're just a pet Sebastian keeps around. Once he's sick of you, you'll be discarded. You don't deserve to wear such a nice dress. Take it off and give it to Isabella."
