Chapter 670 Steal The Limelight
Upon hearing Felicia's words, the sales attendant hesitated before asking, “Miss, are you sure you're buying it?”
She wasn't sure if Gwendolyn could really afford it.
Annoyed by the question, Lucy handed over the gold card.
“Will this do?”
The attendant was stunned by the sight of it. It was none other than the card used exclusively by the CEO, accepted by Solstice Malls worldwide.
Her expression changed drastically. “Of course, of course.”
She naturally wouldn't dare offend a friend of the CEO. There were five such cards in total which were given out by the CEO to friends and family.
It went without saying that whoever held such a card was someone close to the CEO.
All of them became particularly attentive, unaware that the CEO herself was present.
Upon taking another look in the mirror, Gwendolyn decided to take the dress despite thinking otherwise initially due to it being too revealing.
Oblivious to the significance of Lucy's card, Felicia retrieved another gold card from her bag.
“Since you want to turn this into a competition of cards, so be it!”
The sales attendant looked at Felicia as if she was an idiot. Her card means nothing in front of Solstice Group's internal gold card.
“Miss, I'm sorry. This outfit has been sold. Why don't you browse through our other items instead?”
Being at the receiving end of the cold shoulder displeased Felicia. Unable to swallow her pride, she attempted to argue with them but was pulled back by Diana. “Fel, let it go.”
Felicia protested, “Aunt Diana, I really like that dress, yet Gwendolyn has to steal it from me.”
Hector had given her money so that she could reward herself, an honor she felt compelled to gloat about.
“Fel, she's Zayden's wife now. Don't cause any trouble. Otherwise, you'll disgrace yourself. She's under the protection of the Surrington family.”
Even though Gwendolyn's relationship with Zayden was not good and the Surringtons looked down on her, they would still protect her from outsiders, as she was a member of the family.
Diana didn't want Felicia to escalate the situation any further.
Furthermore, she had caught a glimpse of Lucy's card earlier and noticed it was made of pure gold. To her, it had to be one of the store's custom-made cards given how impressive it looked.
Does she know someone really important? After all, she's undeniably beautiful and has worked in clubs before. If she were to turn on the charm, any man would definitely fall for her.
As someone with many life experiences, Diana could read the situation clearly.
In spite of that, Felicia refused to give up. The stunning gown simply made Gwendolyn stand out glamorously.
Felicia, who wouldn't spare Gwendolyn a glance under ordinary circumstances, was awed by the latter's beauty and couldn't peel her eyes away.
If Patrick were to see her, he would definitely be mesmerized, but it seems that he has already forgotten about her.
She broke into a smug grin. “Let's go, Aunt Diana. The designs in this store are really ugly. I'm never coming back here ever again.”
She might have aimed those words at the staff, but they couldn't be bothered by them. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Thereafter, Lucy emerged from the changing room in a strapless mermaid gown that accentuated her already curvaceous figure.
Standing beside Gwendolyn, she commented, “Gwen, the two of us will definitely steal the limelight tonight.”
Gwendolyn in particular looked so stunning that even Lucy was impressed, let alone other men.
Considering the fact that those who usually attended such dinners with Lucas were bachelors from their circle or friends from the army, she wanted to show them what a true beauty really looked like.
Gwendolyn heaved a sigh of relief upon noticing Felicia and Diana's departure.
She had started out shopping in a good mood until the sight of the two reminded her of her annoying problems.
Seeing that Gwendolyn was staring at the store entrance, Lucy asked, “Your aunt seems to be a lot more sensible than Felicia. I don't suppose she's difficult to get along with?”
