Chapter 87
Chapter 87
Andrew was standing behind one of the tall sycamore trees in front of the mansion, holding a big bouquet of roses and watching from afar at how intimate Elizabeth and Brandon looked.
Andrew’s gaze followed both of them until Elizabeth got into Brandon’s small Beetle, and they drove off.
“Huh.”
Andrew laughed mockingly and smashed the roses in his hand against the tree trunk, sending the bright red petals flying and fluttering to the ground, creating a scarlet pool at his feet.
This was the wife that Andrew had been missing. feeling guilty toward, and had wanted to surprise.
What a huge surprise, indeed.
Andrew threw the bouquet of roses into the trash can beside him and turned to leave.
Meanwhile, sitting in Brandon’s car. Elizabeth suddenly felt flustered.
Elizabeth couldn’t help but glance backward, but the road behind them was empty.
“What’s wrong?”
Brandon followed Elizabeth’s gaze and glanced backward. “Elizabeth, are you waiting for someone? Didn’t Eva say she has something on today and won’t go shopping with us?”
“No.”
Elizabeth shook her head and placed her hand over her chest, trying to suppress her slight uneasiness. “I just suddenly thought about the rouge–colored lipstick she mentioned. I don’t think I can tell which one it is.”
“I can” Brandon’s smile was confident. “No matter how slight the difference in the color of the lipstick, I’ll be able to tell. This is my specialty.”
“Then you’re truly amazing.”
“Of course!” Brandon raised his head proudly, casually discussing recent makeup colors with Elizabeth which naturally pulled Elizabeth out of her uneasy mood.
Elizabeth sensed it as well and told herself to stop thinking about that uneasy feeling
The two of them quickly arrived at the mall.
First, they went to the makeup counter to help their female consultants buy everything they needed. Only then did Brandon drag Elizabeth to the women’s clothing department.
Brandon entered the department, picking out a long embroidered dress covered in sequins and handing it to Elizabeth.
The dress was pinkish–purple, embroidered with a cluster of flowers. Under the embellishment of the sequins, it shone brightly under the light, attracting everyone’s attention immediately.
“This…” Elizabeth looked at the large skirt that fell almost to the floor and asked awkwardly, “It’s weird, right?”
“What’s wrong with it?”
Brandon looked at Elizabeth. Even though Elizabeth said she didn’t like it, she was already reaching out to take it. Brandon pushed her towards the fitting room. “Try it. I think this color suits you.”
“Alright then.” Elizabeth chuckled as she entered the fitting room.
The moment that Elizabeth had seen the dress, she’d been reminded of the day she had eaten under the wisteria with. Andrew.
Next time when Andrew came to have lunch with her, she would wear this dress.
Full of anticipation. Elizabeth walked out happily after changing but saw someone at the store entrance that completely spoiled her good mood.
“Elizabeth: Why are you wearing this dress?”
Katherine looked at Elizabeth in shock, her gaze sweeping across Elizabethi’s dress several times.
The shop had called Katherine and told her about the arrival of a new item. Why was Elizabeth now wearing it?
“This bunch of snobs who flatter the rich and powerful!” Katherine thought to herself.
“Can’t I wear it?” Elizabeth could tell she was jealous and deliberately lifted the hem of her dress, taking two steps before saying. “I think it fits me.”
“Wait. Elizabeth, you don’t think it suits you, right?”
Chapter 87
Katherine hated sering Elizabeth’s smug expression and said sarcastically, “The waistband is obviously too tight and your arms are sticking out. The skirt is too long as well.
“Elizabeth, don’t be stubborn and take it off. It’s quite ugly.”
“Well, then…” Elizabeth couldn’t be bothered to argue with Katherine and nodded in agreement. “It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t fit.
“I have a lot of money. I’ll be happy to buy it and bring it home to use as a rag.”
Brandon couldn’t hold back a splutter of laughter as he looked at Katherine’s tight expression, pointing at her as he spoke. “Oh my god!
“Look at you. Your blonde hair looks like straw, and your eyebrows are a mess. There are clear marks of double eyelid surgery around your eyes and a residue of fillers on your nose. Your neck is shorter, your shoulders are wider, your chest is so flat, and your legs are also extremely short. How could you have the cheek to mock someone else’s figure?
“Did you break the mirror in your house, or did you walk out with your eyes closed and only look at the reflection by the roadside?
“I’ll lend you about 30% of self–awareness. Can you move to the side and self–install this awareness into your mind?”
Katherine was dumbfounded.
Elizabeth was equally shocked.
Oh my god!
Could all gays go off like this? You wouldn’t know if they didn’t fight with anyone, but once they did, it was like an entire rap!
“You…” Since she was young, Katherine had been pampered by David and Kaida, and when the Clarke family was in power, everyone around Katherine had also tried their best to please her.
Even Elizabeth had always been second fiddle to her.
But now, Katherine had been thoroughly insulted.
Katherine was so angry that her eyes turned bloodshot, but she couldn’t think of any rebuttal now.
“Oh, did I provoke you?” Brandon asked, reaching forward for Katherine’s outstretched finger that she was pointing at him with and opening her palm. “What are you doing? You can’t beat me with words, so you’re getting physical? Can you do it? Or can these girls behind you do it?”
Brandon’s words reminded Katherine, and she immediately glanced at her friends behind her, hoping they would back her
- up.
However, since Katherine had gotten rid of Lexi, no one was willing to back her up any longer.
Moreover, after Katherine embarrassed herself at the birthday party, those with some status were unwilling to hang out with her. Katherine also didn’t want to be associated with those from smaller families who tried to flatter and benefit from her.
It was just an acquaintance who had followed her here today, and they weren’t even friends. Of course, this girl wouldn’t offend someone else for her.
As such, at this moment, Katherine had lost completely.
Elizabeth looked at Katherine and felt sorry for her. Elizabeth could not even be bothered to provoke her anymore.
Elizabeth pulled at Brandon’s arm and shook her head. “Help me find something else that goes with this dress.”
“Sure.” Brandon rolled his eyes at Katherine and went to help Elizabeth choose other clothes.
Katherine stood on the spot and watched the two of them, the corners of her mouth slowly curling up and a vicious glint flashing across her eyes.
“Elizabeth, you haven’t introduced me to this person yet.”
Katherine raised her head and walked over, sizing Brandon up and deliberately saying. “You two are so close. It doesn’t feel like an ordinary relationship.
“Oh no!”
Katherine deliberately put on a surprised expression, looking at Elizabeth before sweeping her gaze at Brandon and speaking loudly, “I heard Andrew has been away on a business trip recently. Don’t tell me that you found a boy toy in his
absence.
“Aren’t you guys too bold?
“Elizabeth, all your money was given to you by Andrew. Do you think Andrew will be okay with you using his money on your boy toy? Hurry and break up with this boy toy of yours!”
