Chapter 269 The Confrontation
Having understood Yvonne's intentions, Emelia and Nina calmly walking into the dining room.
Yvonne had booked the restaurant today, but she had invited all the socialites she could invite in
Riverside City. Looking from afar, the restaurant was crowded.
After Emelia and Nina entered, Yvonne walked out with a graceful smile on her face. "You two are
really late."
Yvonne was wearing a red dress, which was beautiful. Fortunately, she turned on the air conditioner in
the restaurant, so it was not very cold.
Yvonne admitted that her outfit tonight was the most outstanding among the socialites. She had waited
a long time to get this dress, so she deliberately wore it on tonight's occasion to suppress Emelia in
appearance.
After coming here, the others surrounded her and praised her. They all said that she was beautiful and
elegant. She was very proud.
However, when she saw the ruby necklace on Emelia's neck, all her pride was instantly shattered into
dust.
How could she have forgotten? Emelia had two sets of luxurious jewelry, a set of emeralds and a set of
rubies. A few days ago, Emelia showed up with a ruby earring on her wedding banquet. This set of
ruby jewelry was very valuable.
At that time, Yvonne was so jealous that she almost went crazy. She thought that she had a lot of
valuable jewelry, but after seeing the price of these two sets of jewelry, her jewelry couldn't even
compare to Emelia's.
In addition, Emelia's jewelry was very valuable, completely different from what she had.
Yvonne stared at Emelia's necklace, gnashing her teeth. Nina's beautiful eyes curved into a smile as
she said to Yvonne, "Miss Sullivan, you look so beautiful tonight."
Nina's words were obviously sarcastic. She purposely mocked Yvonne.
Yvonne was furious, but she could only force a smile and say, "Thank you, Nina. You are also very
beautiful. Ordinary people don't dare to stand by your side."
On the other hand, Yvonne was secretly mocking Emelia's appearance for being compared to Nina's.
After that, she deliberately looked at Emelia and asked, "Don't you think so, Miss Jones?"
With a faint smile, Emelia nodded indifferently. "Nina's looks have always been more beautiful than
anyone else."
Nina was fawning over Emelia and Emelia praised Emelia in return.
However, in the face of Yvonne's mockery, Emelia's words didn't seem to have any offensive power.
Yvonne thought that Emelia would be easy to deal with. Just as she was about to smile smugly, Emelia
said generously, "Everyone has their own preference. Some people like Nina's gorgeousness, and
some like the gentle and elegant beauties."
Of course, the word "beautiful beauty" referred to Emelia herself.
Although Emelia had never been the kind of person who was full of confidence, now that she was
facing an enemy, she had the courage to say so.
Emelia's words made Yvonne choke, because Emelia almost said that she loved a beautiful woman
like her.
Just as Yvonne was about to die of anger, Nina nodded and said, "Sure, everyone has their own taste
and preference. Naturally, someone loves a beauty like Miss Sullivan. I heard that Mr. Fleming Jr. of
GamPix is pursuing you recently."
"Shut up!" Yvonne couldn't stand it anymore.
He had a bad reputation.
If Quincy Lee was like the female version of Caroline Hughes, who indulged themselves in lust, then
this Mr. Fleming Junior, aka Matt Fleming, was more like a lecherous pervert with all those kinks.
He had harassed Yvonne before, but at that time, she had rumors with Julian. He dared not provoke
Julian, so he didn't do anything to her.
Now that she had nothing to do with Julian, he became unscrupulous and harassed her all day long.
Yvonne was extremely annoyed. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Although her father, Randolph, was also a very prestigious person in Riverside City and he did not dare
to do anything to her, but when she thought of her name being connected to this man, she felt
extremely disgusted and wished she could kill him.
Nina deliberately said that Matt Fleming was after her, which indirectly mocked that she was only
worthy of being chased by such a filthy man. It would be strange if Yvonne was not annoyed!
Nina asked innocently, "What's wrong?"
Yvonne glared at Nina hatefully, almost biting her teeth into pieces.
Fortunately, at this time, someone else came over and broke the tense atmosphere between them.
"Why don't you go in?" The woman who spoke looked gentle and easy to get along with. Emelia
recognized her. She was quite famous in Riverside City.
As for why she knew her, it was because Nina had helped her learn about these people in advance.
She didn't know where Nina had gotten these people's names and photos, and she remembered them
all.
Emelia had now accepted her identity as the daughter of the Longerich Family. She also knew that
many social interactions. Although Vincent said that she didn't need to deal with these things, she had
to know these things.
Therefore, Emelia nodded to the woman with a smile. The woman smiled at her and then introduced
herself. "Hello, I'm Sydney Berman."
After that, she reached out her hand to her. Emelia naturally shook her hand politely, and then
introduced herself. "Hello, I'm Emelia Jones."
Yvonne was extremely dissatisfied with Sydney's initiative to greet Emelia. She was the host of this
banquet. Shouldn't she wait for the host to introduce her? The two of them walked past her and started
chatting.
Yvonne always thought that she had a good relationship with others, and she was the center of all the
socialites. Everyone should focus on her, but in fact, there were many people who hated her.
Under Yvonne's unpleasant expression, Sydney, Emelia, and Nina finished their greetings. Yvonne
could only grit her teeth and bring them into the dining room.
This time, Yvonne had learned her lesson. After taking the two of them in, she quickly introduced them
one by one in order to highlight her high position.
Emelia and Nina greeted everyone with a generous and decent smile. Only then did a group of people
sit down.
The seats were arranged with three long tables, which were full of socialites.
As soon as she sat down, a lady next to Emelia clicked her tongue and praised her necklace. "Miss
Jones, your necklace is so beautiful. I only saw its bright appearance on the auction website before, but
I didn't expect to see it today. I really liked it."
Emelia smiled and said "Thank you."
Yvonne glared at the speaker in the main seat, her heart filled with contempt.
These people were really snobbish. When she first came here, they were fawning over her, and now
they were fawning on Emelia.
