Arielle grew excited There were plenty of guests here, so this piece of news would spread quickly in
their circle. I wonder how Henrick will react after finding out about it?
Her expression remained doubtful “Shandie, this isn’t the time to spout nonsense Hurry, tell us about
the dress,” she reminded Shandie quinly
Realization dawned on Shandie as she turned to Russell and divulged, “Uncle Russell, I’m telling the
truth! I had been in the monastery all along and only got to return today I have plenty of witnesses! If
you investigate about it, you’ll find out where the dress carne from!”
Russell couldn’t quite catch up with the turn of events. He remained silent for a while before
announcing, “I shall get to the bottom of this.”

Edmund released Shandie and led her out of the back door

As expected, the housekeeper in the room quickly spread the juicy gossip around. Soon, everyone at

Arielle bribed the Actonwards’ housekeeper to spread the word that Yvette was the one who sent the

guests gossiping and criticizing
her
Che had no choice but to pretend not to hear them. Otherwise, the guests might spread a new rumor

After that, Yvette couldn’t bring herself to mill around the hall as though nothing had happened, so she Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
stepped out of the house for a breather when no one else was noticing.
At the door, a man clad in a black tuxedo and black top hat stood in her way.

The manfted his hat and revealed his eyes
