Chapter 268



.

The woman was walking around in a pair of crystal heels.

The blue dress she wore emphasized her slim, slender waist, which looked like it could be held with one hand.

Her straight hair, hanging casually behind her, fluttered in the air along with her movements.

Beside her, a girl with a small mask also wore a similar blue princess dress. He bounced as he led her by the hand.

They were an exquisite sight at the Hunts’ mansion.

The people waiting at the door were stunned and all looked at them in disbelief.

Step into a new journey on galnovels .con The few women who clamored a moment ago said in surprise:

“That dress…. It’s Blue Enchantress!”

“Good grief, who is she, doesn’t she walk very well? Her movements are obviously so great when she swivels her hips as she walks, but how does she still look so lovely? She’s too beautiful.”

“What family is she from? Why is the little girl in her arms wearing a silver mask? She’s so pretty, is she her younger sister?”

“…”

Rachel was totally stunned as everyone sang Nora’s praises.

She stared at Nora in disbelief, feeling that her eyes must be playing tricks on her. Was she really that small-town, simple-minded woman who always wore jeans and white T-shirts, the one who walked as if she was still half asleep?

Wasn’t her gait too elegant?

Even she found it hard to go against her conscience and say that she didn’t look good!

All around her, every man’s eyes were on her – it was obvious that Nora had become the center of attention!

When did such a beauty appear in New York?

That was everyone’s thought.

Even Yvonne was a little stunned. However, since she knew Sheril, she didn’t mistake her for anyone else. Instead, she looked at Nora with surprise.

She had only heard her name before this, but was she the supposed townie Rachel mentioned?

There was practically no need for any comparison. Even with the distance that separated them, it was obvious who had won? Or at least it was as far as what they were wearing!

She bit her lip angrily and looked at Rachel. For the first time, she couldn’t contain herself and said, “So that’s the Nora Smith you were talking about?”.

That one sentence of hers was enough to enlighten everyone present.

Everyone looked at Nora in unison. The same thought formed simultaneously in everyone’s minds at that instant: if she looked anything like her mother, it was no wonder her mother was the public enemy of all the rich wives in New York at the time!

Considering the way she looked, what man would be able to resist her?

Especially with the way her hips twisted as she walked? Even if she was doing it on purpose, she simply looked too beautiful!

However, Nora, who was ‘twisting her hips on purpose’, was complaining while walking at the time. “What kind of shoes are these, aren’t they too slippery?”

Cherry supported her mom carefully to keep her from tripping and falling in public. Now that would be a terrible sight. And in her adorable voice she said, “Beauty comes at a price Mommy!”.

The crystal heels matched the blue dress perfectly, but because the crystal heels were a bit more slippery than normal heels, Nora couldn’t walk very well in them. As a result, she could only swivel her hips from side to side as she walked!

Nora tried to put up with it, but in the end she kept bending over, intending to take off her heels and fasten them in place. What kind of disgusting shoes were these? She wasn’t going to wear them anymore.

But as soon as she bent down, Sheril held her hand. “There’s a lot of eyes on you right now Nora! You better not do anything nasty! Otherwise, it’ll be really embarrassing!”

Nora: “…”

She silently endured the heels for a while longer. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said to Cherry: “Have your father fix me a pair of normal heels! If not, I’m going barefoot later!”.

Cherry immediately pulled out her phone. “Okay mom! I’ll get in touch with Dad right away.”

Without further ado, they made their way through the crowd and arrived at the entrance to the room. They were about to enter the party room after checking in when they suddenly heard a booming voice.

“Nora Smith!”

Nora and Sheril looked up to see Rachel looking at them. She looked her dress up and down and asked, “Who loaned you that dress?”

Nora looked at her coldly, disinterested in even talking to her.

She scoffed and said nothing.

Sheril asked, “Oh, did you come too, Rachel, did we go in together?”

She didn’t want anyone to know that Justin had borrowed her. If the Hunts found out, they would surely look at Nora funny.

As Nora’s family, they had to have pride.

Rachel completely ignored Sheril and just looked at Nora. “Say, how did you manage to borrow that dress? With the Anderson’s reputation there’s no way you could borrow it!”

In a wild move she then pointed at Yvonne and added, “Even Miss Smith only managed to borrow that dress she’s wearing, so why would you be able to borrow Blue Enchantress’?”

Nora raised her eyebrows. “I went to the store to borrow it I guess.”

Rachel: “…”

Of course she knew she had borrowed it from the store, but was that what she was asking?

Before she could say anything else, Melissa had already checked in at the gift receiving table by the door. She said, “All right, let’s go in. Rachel, are you going to come in with us or are you going to keep playing here, or shall I ask your father to come and take you back?”

Regardless of what was going on at home, they were in public at that moment. For Rachel to make a fuss like that was a total embarrassment.

Rachel swallowed hard. “You guys can go in first Aunt Melissa. I’m having fun here with Miss Smith.”

Melissa nodded.

Nora, however, looked at the ‘Miss Smith’ Rachel had mentioned….

She was wearing a blue dress similar in color to the one she was wearing. Strictly speaking, their outfits had clashed with each other. However, Blue Enchantress’ design was clearly a bit more sophisticated.

She looked quite bright and charming, plus she carried herself elegantly. She remained silent with a soft smile.

Nora asked curiously, “Is she Ian Smith’s daughter?”.

She had heard that, although Ian had been single all his life, he had adopted a daughter.

So, she was Ian’s adopted daughter?

As soon as the idea formed, Sheril leaned over to her and gently explained, “Yes, her name is Yvonne Smith.”

Yv… onne… Smith…

Nora suddenly felt a little uncomfortable hearing the name.

To be honest, despite everything she had been through, that her mother had a man who loved her so much, it seemed like that was enough for her whole life.

Sheril couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Smith is a devoted man.”

The two had already entered the living room as they spoke.

However, Yvonne had overheard their conversation.

She bit her lip hard. Then, she stepped forward, walked to the gift registry room and looked around. Sure enough, she saw that the Andersons had given pills as gifts.

As to what kind of pill it was, it wasn’t specified.

But it was definitely not as good as the Zabe Corporation Soothing Pill she was giving away.

Now that she had lost in terms of clothing, she must not lose in terms of gifts!

With that in mind, she looked at the person at the registration desk and asked, “What kind of medicine did the Andersons give away?”
