Chapter 116
Its beautiful , she breathed , her eyes shining as she took me in .
I glanced down at the dress shyly .
You dont think its too much ? I asked her .
Oh , goddess no ! she said , waving off my concern .
Not for the Gala .
Come on , you must show Irene .
She opened the dressing room door , and I stepped out into the light .
Irene stood by a rack of new dresses but when she heard me step out of the changing room she turned to look at me .
Her eyes grew large , and her mouth fell open at the sight of me .
Wow ! She breathed .
You look amazing .
There was a flash of something in her eyes that I couldnt quite understand but it was gone in a heartbeat .
It almost looked like jealousy , I quickly brushed that thought out of my head ; Irene was drop- dead gorgeous ; there was no way she was jealous of me .
We definitely have to get you that dress .
Walter is going to lose his mind , Irene breathed .
Now , Im going to find my own dress .
Ill come find you when Im done .
She took off a moment later .
I turned to the standing mirror beside me , and I was taken aback by how beautiful the dress looked on me .
I was honestly stunning , which was something I never thought I would say about myself .
Nan would completely lose her mind if she saw me .
I turned away and started to walk towards the dressing room when I walked straight into somebody .
Ew , watch where you are going , I heard a familiar voice saying in a scowl .
I looked up only to see Daisy glaring down at me with her arms folded across her chest .
She lip curled in disgust as she took me in and her eyes narrowed .
Ive only encountered Daisy once and it wasnt pleasant .
It was when I went to dinner with Gavin to discuss my contract while working for him .
Her gaze shifted to the dress I was wearing , and she took a step back to examine it , and then a smile spread across her lips .
That dress is perfect .
Ill take it , she said , motioning for Stacy .
Stacy raised her brows and then looked at me before looking back at her .
Sorry Miss Baldwin , but Im afraid this dress has already been taken , Stacy said , a bit awkwardly .
Daisy lifted her lip up into a curl as she glared at Stacy .
Im Daisy Baldin , the heiress of the Baldwin Estate .
I get everything that I want and what I want is that dress , she snarled .
I could literally ruin you .
Stacy looked nervous as she bit her lower lip .
She wasnt sure what to say , so I decided to intervene .
instead .
As you can see , Im wearing the dress , Miss Baldwin , I told her .
Im going to get it .
Chapter 0116 # She glared at me and the corner of her lips tipped upward into a condescending smirk .
Like you could afford a dress like this , she said , folding her arms across her chest .
Dont make me laugh .
Ill pay you to take it off , she continued as she reached into her pocket to grab her checkbook .
She grabbed a pen as well and glanced back at me .
How much ? A thousand dollars ? When I didnt say anything , and just kept staring blankly at her , trying to figure out where she got this type of audacity , she scoffed .
Fine , how about 5 thousand dollars ? Im not going to give you this dress , I told her through my teeth .
Her eyes turned into slits .
This dress deserves to be worn by someone with class .
You certainly have none , she hissed .
Her eyes pinched together as she scanned my face .
Do I know you from somewhere ? Why do you look so familiar ? I opened my mouth to reply , but then realization flashed through her eyes .
Oh right ; youre the whore that wont leave Gavin alone , she laughed , shaking her head .
I hope you arent going to this Gala in hopes of winning him over .
Newsflash , you are just a one night stand .
You meant nothing to him .
He hasnt had a serious relationship with my sister , but Im planning on changing that at the Gala .
My heart sank from her words .
I shouldnt have let that bother me , but I couldnt help it .
Get out of that dress , now , Daisy demanded .
Aunt Daisy ? Irene said , stepping beside me .
Daisys eyes flickered to Irene and her face paled .
I… Irene … ? Daisy stammered .
What are you doing here ? Irene narrowed her eyes .
Im helping my friend Judy pick out a dress for the Gala .
