Since joining the entertainment industry, Emilia only managed to take on small advertising gigs and
minor roles.
Most of the characters she played were tasteless roles that emphasized showing off her body. When she made headlines, most words used to describe her were bold and revealing.
Rumor had it that she had recently met a wealthy businessman, and the two were preparing to get married after dating for a few months.
Christina set off to deliver the dress. As she approached the mansion, a maid greeted her at the door and ushered her inside.
The villa was decorated with luxurious furnishings and opulent decorations.
“It’s no lesser than Scenic Garden Manor, right?” Emilla strutted down from the second floor.
She had demanded Christina deliver the dress in person so that she could flaunt her residence and belittle her rival.
After all, Emilia was convinced she was just as good as Christina, if not better.
Christina nonchalantly slid her hands into her coat pockets and said in a relaxed tone, “Here’s your dress. So long as you haven’t put on any extra pounds in the past few days, it should fit just fine.”
With that, Christina turned to leave.

Emilia’s intention was never to collect the dress. Rather, she sought to flaunt her wealth and undermine Christina.
However, Christina’s nonchalant attitude caught her off guard. It even seemed she was mocking her, which made Emilia feel foolish.
Refusing to accept this, Emilia rushed after Christina and grabbed her hand. “Are you jealous of my success? Are you afraid that I’ll see your despondent look? Is that why you are in such a hurry to leave?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChristina stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Emilia. “You don’t need others to decide whether you’re happy or not. Are you seeking my validation because material possessions can’t fulfill your innermost desires?”
Although her voice was gentle, her bright eyes gleamed with an icy coldness that seemed to penetrate the hearts of those around her.
Christina’s words caught Emilia off guard. Her eyes widened with fury as she pulled out an invitation. “If you’re not envious of me, come to my engagement party tonight,” she said, thrusting the card into Christina’s hand.

Emilia shot her sister a provoking look and continued. “If you don’t dare to show up, it can’t bear to see me succeed. Don’t pretend that it doesn’t bother you.”
Christina snorted derisively and accepted the invitation. “Very well, I’ll be there on time and steal the spotlight from you.”
“You…” Before Emilia could finish her sentence, Christina had already walked out of the door.

When Christina returned to Scenic Garden Manor, she changed into a new outfit and did her makeup.
Even though she didn’t know why Emilia was so insistent on her attending the engagement party, she had already agreed to it. Hence, she had to show up.
As Christina was about to leave, she heard footsteps coming down the stairs.
Quickly, she grabbed a blanket from the sofa and covered herself, leaving only her head visible.
Nathaniel entered the room; his chiseled and handsome features, deep black eyes, and commanding eyebrows emanated a powerful aura.
Sebastian followed behind him; they looked like they had some errands to run.
“You’re going out?” Nathaniel stopped next to her.
“Nope!” Christina immediately responded with a faint smile.
She planned to show up at Emilia’s party for a short while and then return. Hence, there was no need
to trouble Nathaniel.
Moreover, she didn’t think there was a need to ask for Nathaniel’s help to deal with someone as insignificant as Emilia.
Nathaniel, being observant as always, couldn’t help but notice that Christina had put on makeup today.
Upon removing her blanket, he observed that she donned a black gown that accentuated her well- defined collarbones.
Her tousled hair was pulled back into a messy bun, giving her an alluring and seductive look.
Christina flushed and uttered, “I’m attending Emilia’s engagement party. I won’t stay there for long, so there’s no need to worry about me.”
A frosty glint flashed across Nathaniel’s eyes as he stared at her fair, snow-like skin. “Cancel tonight’s meeting and get the car ready.”
“Yes, Mr. Hadley,” Sebastian answered, before leaving to retrieve the vehicle.
“There’s no need to accompany me if you have work to do…” Christina began, but Nathaniel cut her off and pulled her toward the door.
Sebastian then promptly drove the car to the venue mentioned on the invitation.
White Sky Hotel had a century-old reputation in Jadeborough, and it was known for hosting many historical figures, including royalty like the Queen of Ustrana.
For most people, booking a banquet here was a nearly impossible task.
Hence, Emilia was determined to invite Christina to Her engagement party, as she wanted to show off her success to the latter.

The interior design. was so luxurious that it resembled a palace. “I heard that White Sky Hotel has a floor especially reserved to showcase photographs of all the prominent guests who came here.

Christina exclaimed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What’s so interesting about some old photos?” Nathaniel murmured.
“You don’t understand,” Christina explained, her bright eyes shining with excitement. “White Sky Hotel only hosts the crème de la crème of society, so the clothing and jewelry on display in those photographs are likely reflective of the latest fashion trends of the time. It could even provide inspiration for my designs!”
Even if it didn’t help my designs, it would still be an enjoyable experience to broaden my horizons.
Christina’s smile faltered slightly as she continued, “Unfortunately, I heard the exhibit only opens once a year, so it’s not easy to get access.”
“If you want to see it, I can make arrangements for you,” Nathaniel said nonchalantly, as though it were a trivial matter.
“Don’t bother. I don’t want you to owe anyone any favors. Pretend that I never spoke about it.” Christina shrugged.
At that very moment, Emilia made her grand entrance in the magnificent red dress created by Christina. The stunning dress drew countless compliments, leaving everyone in awe of Emilia’s breathtaking appearance.
While the dress was undeniably stunning, she knew deep down that her own natural beauty was what truly made it shine, and not Christina’s design skills.
Emilia’s gaze was immediately drawn to Nathaniel. Hur heart skipped a beat as she eagerly exclaimed, “Nathaniel, I am truly honored by your presence!”
In contrast, the man’s reply was devoid of any warmth. “You should thank your sister.”
He intended to emphasize that his attendance at the engagement party was solely due to Christina’s
presence.
Emilia’s lips twitched, and her eyes shifted to Christina. It was supposed to be her engagement party, but it seemed her sister had outdone her, stealing the spotlight yet again.
Nonetheless, Emilia had no intention of letting Christina off the hook so easily. She had been plotting. her revenge since the moment she invited Christina to the engagement party, carefully setting up a trap within the venue.
Emilia stared at Christina and sneered, “You should enjoy yourself tonight. My engagement may be an unforgettable event for you.”
After speaking, she displayed a sly grin before striding away to welcome other guests.
Christina pondered over Emilia’s smile and felt that things were not as simple as they looked.

Just then, Miranda spotted Christina and walked over to pinch her hand. “Brat, go clean up the place!”
