Chapter 187 Cheap Imitation


    The woman turned to look at J as well. She froze for a brief second, then her eyes narrowed


    into slits.


    ''Is she a celebrity, too?''


    J was a gorgeous woman, but not in the way that most women in showbiz were. She wasn''t the


    type to turn heads at first nce, but her charms never failed to make asting impression on


    everyone she met. Needless to say, this quality of hers attracted jealousy from other women


    inasmuch as it inspired admiration in most men.


    Emani Gomez shot J a look of displeasure, which only darkened when she realized that they


    were wearing an almost identical evening dress as hers—the same style, in the exact same color.


    And it looked far more beautiful on J.


    Emani nced at her assistant pointedly.


    The girl understood the message at once, and she proceeded to point a finger at J. "Hey, you!"


    she snapped in an arrogant tone. "Who the hell do you think you are? You almost bumped into Miss


    Gomez just now. Hurry and apologize."


    J''s brows furrowed. "You said ''almost'', so I haven''t really done anything to her, have I? Why


    should I apologize?"


    The assistant sputtered, obviously taken aback. "How dare you—Where are your manners? Well,


    whatever! Go and change your clothes. Don''t you see that you''re wearing the same dress as Miss


    Gomez?"


    J cocked her head to the side, wondering what the fuss was all about. She didn''t think it was a


    big deal at all. Granted, the woman was a star, so it was understandable that she wouldn''t be keen


    on having anyone wear the same outfit to the same event. If only they had asked her nicely, then


    J would have dly obliged.


    Unfortunately for them, she wasn''t the type to tolerate rude and presumptuous people.


    "Why should I change?" J countered. With that, she turned on her heel, intending to continue


    her search for Ethan.


    But the assistant suddenly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her back forcefully. "Whichpany


    are you from, you ungrateful bitch? Do you have any idea who she is? She is the Emani Gomez!


    You can never afford to offend her, not even in your dreams!"


    J nced sideways at the actress.


    She was tall and slender, with dark and shiny curls framing her delicate features.


    J was all too aware of Emani''s identity. In addition to being a popr star of their age, she was


    also the new face for the Larson Group''s clothing business.


    Emani wore a butterfly-shaped mask which covered half her face, so J didn''t recognize her just


    now. She didn''t look half as pretty nor sexy as she did on the screen. Maybe it was because of her


    heavy makeup, but she was looking particrly tacky.

    J shook off the assistant''s hold and stared straight at Emani. "I am not an actress, but a


    designer for the Larson Group. And I am not changing my clothes. I can wear whatever I want; you


    have no right to give me orders. If you''re so bothered by the simrity, then you can go and change


    yourself."


    The assistant huffed, and she began to roll her sleeves up, ready to teach J a lesson. "You!


    You''re just another employee of thepany; how dare you act so arrogant? Don''t me me for


    punishing you, since you brought this upon yourself!"


    The air around them crackled with tension.


    Emani instantly stepped between them. "Watch yourself," she chided her assistant. "We must not


    ruin Mr. Larson''s party on ount of this nobody. Let it go."


    She gripped the girl''s hand and gave J a sneer. "My assistant was being impulsive just now. Let


    me put it bluntly. Your dress is just a knockoff, right? The details are very different from the ones on


    mine. It wouldn''t be good for you to wear such a cheap imitation to this kind of party. I''m afraid you


    will only embarrass yourself if you insist on wearing it for the rest of the event."
