    Chapter 1303


    Ste was taken aback upon hearing what Felicity had said.


    “It’s just better if you stay cautious,” Felicity advised.


    Suddenly, the door swung open. Aldor and several others entered the apartment one after another.


    Each of them was carrying two to three sets of dresses wrapped in dustproof covers. They then


    arranged themselves in a straight line in the living room.


    “Ms. Jewell, Mr. Kane personally curated these dresses for you. Please take a look and see if any of


    them catch your fancy. I can make some adjustments if none of them appeals to you,” said Aldor.


    Ste could not believe what was happening, and Felicity’s jaw dropped in astonishment. “Is this how


    you always choose your outfits?”


    Ste rubbed her temples and said, “Aldor, today is Jaylene’s birthday. Do you think that these attires


    are suitable? I don’t want to steal the spotlight.”


    Aldor also felt helpless in the situation. “I did remind Mr. Kane about it, but he insisted that mboyance


    is your style. He even instructed me to bring all your jewelry over for you to choose.” He then signaled


    for the men behind him to open the boxes they were carrying, and it revealed a dazzling array of


    jewelry.


    Ste was at a loss for words.


    Meanwhile, Felicity’s jaw dropped even wider. She turned to Ste and asked, “Did you have to do this


    for every event you had in the past?”


    Ste did not reply. During her younger days, she deliberately wore bold outfits to irk those who


    gossiped behind her back. It was a conscious act to provoke them. Now that she was more mature,


    she found that there was no need to do so anymore. ‘Oddly enough, Keegan seems to regress in


    maturity,’ she thought.


    “I’m not wearing these. Call Keegan and have him take it back. I’ll just select something from my


    wardrobe.”


    “Why don’t you contact Mr. Kane yourself, Ms. Jewell? He won’t listen to me,” Aldor suggested.


    Following that, Ste reluctantly dialed Keegan’s number


    As soon as he picked up, he asked, “Have you chosen something from the outfits I sent over?”


    “No, because I won’t be wearing them.”


    “Everyone dresses formally for a birthday celebration. So, you should too. It’smon etiquette,”


    Keegan reasoned.


    “Even so, I’m not going to put on an extravagant dress to Jaylene’s birthday party, you nitwit!”


    Aldor and the others were all taken aback when they heard Ste call Keegan a nitwit. However, Aldor


    maintained aposed demeanor.


    ‘Even if these dresses weren’t bought outright, merely lending them would incur substantial costs. If


    Ms. Jewell found out, she’d likely give a three-day-three-night tongue-shing to Mr. Kane. Calling him


    a nitwit will only be scratching the surface,’ he thought.


    “You’d still draw attention even if you’re wearing a potato sack. Others use clothes toplement


    themselves, but youplement the clothes,” said Keegan.


    His words left Ste speechless. ‘Since when was this guy so good at smooth talking?’


    “I think I should dress based on the asion. I don’t want others to outshine me at my own birthday


    party. So, it’s best if I keep it down a notch. Don’t make others hate me, Keegan.”


    “Maybe Aldor can offer you some in options to consider,” Keegan tried to reason. As Ste was


    about to object, he continued, “Come on, your brother would never allow me to be with you if he found


    out that I couldn’t even buy you a dress.”


    Upon hearing that, Ste begrudgingly agreed.


    Aldor acted swiftly and reced the first set of dresses with another selection for Ste to choose from.

    Among the many options, Ste opted for a white dress with medium-length sleeves that was suitable


    for the weather. The bottom of the dress was covered with a light tie-dye pattern that made it look fresh


    and elegant.
