Chapter 398
All of Beatrice’s friends continued ribbing Lea. “Lea Berry, this gown is not suitable for you. Take it off
“Yeah, take it off
“Go on. Take it off” The chon
chonis echoed endlessly
Beatrice spoke again. This gown is more suitable for our Abigail whether in terms of figure or <b>status</b>, Lea. Why don’t you give it to Abigail “
She then rolled her eyes. In other words, she was hinting to Lea to give up Alfred Andrews and let Abigail Erickson have him.
All the girls looked at one another and urged Lea, “Yeah… That’s right…..
A hint of madness shed across Abigail’s eyes. She clenched her lists hard, took a deep breath, and sod, Lea, I am willing to take the gown. You can name your price. I can also agree to one condition of yours. You can make your request to me at any time and I will oblige you”
Ever since she was
was young. Abigail <b>had </b>always thought of Alfred <b>as </b><b>hers </b>in her heart.
Lea had already snatched him away once but they were destined to be separated.
This time, she had to find a way to get Alfred.
She might as well start with the gown Lea was wearing
Right now, all her cronies became envious <b>and </b>jealous.
The Erickson family was notcking <b>in </b>wealth and power, both of which other people were dying toy their <b>hands </b>on.
Abigail made an extremely tempting offer
Beatrice had been hanging out with Abigail for a long time and knew <b>her </b><b>very </b>well. Now, she <b>was </b>able topletely see through thetter’s thoughts.
Thus, she urged Lea again. “Lea, quickly change out of your gown and give it to Abigail. You won’t get another chance after this
Lea <b>nced </b>at her with a faint smile. Her eyes then surveyed everyone casually. “This gown is not rented. Alfred bought it for me. It’s unique in the world and it belongs only to me.”
She shifted her <b>gaze </b>and stared at Abigail. She was half a head taller than Abigail, and her high heels added another inch. It was as if she was looking down at Abigail.
“Abigail, don’t cover what’s mine, even if <b>it’s </b>an old piece of clothing that I want to discard”
Abigail’s expression changed drastically. Her newly manicured diamond nails almost dug into her palm Lea Berry, it’s already so clear now. Yet you are still-
How could she still be so arrogant and so full of herself?
Abigail really felt like pounding on <b>Lea </b>and pushing down that arrogant head to make her admit defeat and ept her <b>fate</b>.
However, Milton Andrews was present. She could not turnish her image.
“How brazen How shameless!” Zina Andrews could not take it anymore when <b>she </b>saw that Lea was still holding her head high. “Lea Berry, anyone with a sense of shame would have disappeared long ago. Indeed, a shameless person is undefeatable
“That’s right? The socialites nearly all looked at Lea with disdain. “You <b>have </b>no shame at all”
“You still want to keep this gown for yourself?” Beatrice red viciously at <b>Lea</b><b>: </b>“Even if Abigail doesn’t want it, only someone of Arlene’s status <b>is </b>worday of in
“That’s right” The other girl then turned <b>to </b>Adene. “Arleur, every high–end brand will look for you to be their spokesperson. You’ve also siguest a contract with this brand, havent your Has thest already mandated that this gowns will go to you?”
Arlene, who was standing behind everyone, stole a nce at Lea. Sheurriedly averted her eyes and subconsciously tightened her grip on the folds of her dress. She began tremlding uncontrobly
She didn’t want to go toward Abigail. She <b>just </b>wanted to stay far away <b>from </b>Lea.
Innually, when die received the invitation to this banquet, she even discussed with her mother whether she should attend.
That was because Lea Herry would be attending and she would bump into Lea.
<b>11:31 </b>AM
Chapter 398
However, such a high–level banquet was something they <b>had </b>always dreamed of. It was the best opportunity for the mother and daughter to establish themselves in Iverton. <b>That </b>was why they decided to attend,
During the banquet. Arlene tried to avoid going near Lea. N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
However, Zina insisted that she joined them. Since she hade here today to befriend these socialites and <b>make </b><b>inroads </b>into the upper–<b>ss </b>society, she had no choice but to follow them. Abigail’s presence was also another motivating factor.
“Arlene?” Thinking that Arlene didn’t hear them, someone tugged at her gently. Then thinking that she did not understand, she repeated in the Maspeyriannguage.
Arlene nodded uneasily.
That <b>was </b><b>right</b>. Arlene’s agent and the brand’s marketing department had previously agreed that Arlene would wear and endorse this gown. To her surprise, when she went to collect it, she was told that it had been taken.
Since the party who took the gown <b>was </b><b>a </b>big shot that the brand’s marketing department could not afford to offend, they could only give up
<b>No </b>one expected the gown to end up on <b>Lea </b>Berry.
Beatrice looked at Lea again and gave <b>a </b>scornfulugh, “Why don’t you go take a good look at yourself in the mirror? How can you simply covet and snatch other people’s things as you wish?
“Do you really think you can do <b>as </b>you wish just because you are shameless and so full of yourself? Just you wait.”
<b>Sheena </b>Andrews, who was standing beside Ivan Berry, clenched her fats so tightly that <b>they </b>hurt, She subconsciously took a step forward, but she realized that there was nothing she could do.
She could scold these people before her eyes but what about the voices and actions of those people further behind?
to do this.
Furthermore, this was also what the Andrews family <b>had </b>orchestrated. To be more urate, Grandpa had instructed them to
Even if Sheena stood up for the victim, it would not help things at all. Thus, she could only look at Lea helplessly.
Lea was totally oblivious to these people around her. Her eyes were fixed squarely on Arlene Lea seemed indifferent, but her eyes were exuding an inenuity that was icy and sharp.
You, you girls<b>, </b>please stop this
<b>ene </b><b>raised </b><b>her </b>head and looked <b>at </b>Lea again. When she saw that Lea was just standing there calmly, she was not so afraid anymore but her gaze kept avoiding Lea’s eyes. “Don’t… bully Leat
Arlene was afraid. She did not even dare to <b>look </b><b>at </b>Lea, much <b>less </b><b>offend </b>or bully her.
Lea gave a smirk. Even Arlene’s voice had changed. It waspletely different from her earlier voice
Right now, Arlene spoke the Codrenian with an ent. No one could have guessed that she was a Codren citizen and had grown up in Codren
Despite the changes in her character, her mother tongue was still the Codrenian which she <b>had </b>been using <b>since </b>she <b>was </b>young
Lea burst outughing Arlene looked at Lea in bewilderment and assumed that Lea was feeling grateful toward her.
“Us! <b>Bully </b>her?” Everyoneughed hysterically.
Beatriceughed the loudest “We’re not bullying her. She’s humiliating herself here. We’re just trying to help lier.
Lea stepped forward and looked straight at Heatrice. Her <b>gaze </b>seemed to exert a force that effectively shut Beatrice up. “All of you think humiliating to me?”
She swept
her eyes past Beatrice to look at Abigail before fixing them on Arlene “Abigail, Arlene, do you think this is humiliating?”
Lea had been abused by Matilda Herry since she was young. What she suffered then was true bullying and <b>humiliation</b>,
When Lea was young, the slid not <b>know </b>that Matilda <b>was </b>not her biological mother. In order to please the woman, she humbled herself to be a good daughter and even took the gene drugs the woman gave her to develop the artificial brain she coveted. That was bullying and humiliatio
Lea was clearly trying to protect herself, but she wasbeled a murderer and sentenced to death. Tur was bullying and humiliation.
She was of such
of such great value t
brought wealth and power to everyone, yet they harmed the people she loved the most. That <b>was </b>bullying and
All of those things wer ue bullying and hum

“Arlene, you probably know what it means to be humiliated, don’t
you?”
Arlene got a shock and jerked her head up. When her eyes met <b>Lea’s</b>, terror began to creep over her.
She suddenly had the feeling that Lea had recognized her.
No, that was impossable! She tried to calm herself down.
She looked nothing <b>like </b>Helen Berry at all. Most of the time, she did not even think of herself as Helen Berry
The life of Helen Berry was just a nightmare she had on a dark night,
When she woke up, everything was gone. Yes, that was it.
It was impossible <b>that </b>Lea Berry recognized her.
