    “I don’t mind as long as Ste doesn’t mind. After all, it’s just a name,” Sophia smiled and said.


    Hearing that, the crowd began to discuss Ste being an illegitimate daughter.


    “I can’t believe Ste is the illegitimate daughter, and Sophia is the actual daughter of the Jewell family.


    You don’t even get to see this kind of a plot twist on TV.”


    “How does she have the nerve to show up on such a joyous asion?”


    “Look at her. I bet she’s either here to win sympathy or to ask for money. I heard that Mr. Jewell has


    been secretly helping her out despite her not being his actual daughter.”


    “Mr. Jewell is a good man. I would’ve found someone else too if I knew that my wife cheated on me and


    had a baby.”


    Ste’s eyelids twitched when she heard that. ‘No wonder Albert transferred fifty thousand dors to


    me for no reason before this. It’s all for show. He just wanted to establish the image of a good father,*


    she thought.


    Ste’s expression remained the same no matter what the people said about her.


    Annoyed that Ste was not giving them the reaction they wanted, Sophia and Xianna nced at each


    other. Then, thetter immediately said, “Ste, you look miserable after the


    divorce. Did you buy that dress at the thrift store? It looks so poorly made. Don’t you have anything


    decent for the wedding? Sophia can lend you one of her dresses if you


    want. If I remember correctly, Sophia always got your hand- me-downs when you were younger, right? I


    hope you don’t mind wearing Sophia’s clothes this time around.”


    Keegan could not stand to see Ste being embarrassed, and he wanted to go forward to help her.


    However, Aldor hurriedly pulled him back.


    “Don’t worry, Mr. Kane. Ms. Jewell is a strong woman. She won’t be affected by thosements that


    easily. It’s important to wait for the finale,” said Aldor.


    Keegan understood the situation, but he did not like to see Ste being bullied like that. ‘She used to be


    able to say and do whatever she wanted with me around. How can I not be worried now that she’s all


    alone?’ he thought as he stared at the group sullenly, memorizing their faces one by one.


    Sophia looked at Ste’s sad expression and smiled before she hypocritically said, “I brought two other


    sets of clothing today, Ste. I’ve only worn them once. Do you want to change into them?”


    Hearing that, Ste looked up and nced at her. Just when Sophia thought she was about to get mad,


    Ste asked in disdain, “What brand are they? I’ll pass if the dresses are from a cheap brand like the


    one you’re wearing right now.”


    Sophia’s face stiffened as she clenched her fists.


    “You uneducated bitch. This dress is handmade by the


    famous designer, Wendy Carlson. It was also worn by a certain celebrity on Paris Fashion Week. Do


    you know how much a dress like this would cost?” Xianna jumped in and said.


    “Oh, my God. No wonder that dress looked familiar. It’s the one Nicole Aspen wore at the fashion week.


    It looked great in the videos, and it looks even more stunning in person.”


    “Wendy Carlson is the most popr designer in Hustuabourg right now. Her pre-made designs are


    really hard to get, let alone a custom-made dress!”


    “How dare she say that Wendy Carlson’s design looks cheap? Did she look in a mirror?”


    “She’s clearly blind and in denial. She probably hasn’t epted her sudden change of status from Mrs.


    Kane to the illegitimate daughter of the Jewell family.”


    ‘That dress doesn’t even appeal to straight men like Keegan, let alone me. The marketing is quite on


    point though,’ Ste thought to herself. “Oh. So, someone else has worn it? I thought it was a


    customized order,” she said.
