Chapter 58
Sheena did not explain anything and just smirked. “Let’s go. We might miss the action if we’re late.”
At the Moore mansion, Jennifer was still getting ready in a dressing room on the second floor. She had
been preparing since noon, determined to outshine everyone and be the center of
attention that night.
Erin sat next to her, chatting away. “If it weren’t for your invitation to this banquet, Eli would probably
have kept me grounded for who knows how long. You don’t know how strict those people are at the
Freeman mansion. It’s unbearable!”
Jennifer comforted her with a smile, “Well, you’re out now, and I doubt Eli will lock you up again.”
“That’s hard to say. Eli is stubborn, and he sticks to his principles.” Erin pouted, then continued, “I have
no idea what you’ve been up to lately, as you haven’t even been answering my calls. I’m close to
thinking that you’ve sold me out.”
Jennifer was stunned, but she quickly held Erin’s hand affectionately. “How could I ever do something
like that? You’ve always been my best friend. It hurts me that you’d think of me like that.”
Erin believed her. “I was just kidding! Anyway, congratulations! Now that you’ve secured your position
as the Moore family’s heiress, you’ll be even more suitable for Eli!”
Jennifer’s gaze turned cold briefly, but when Erin looked back at her, she flashed a warm smile. Erin did
not notice the change and continued talking, “Speaking of which, now that you’re the Moore family’s
heiress and the future inheritor of the Moore Group, your status is extraordinary. That bitch Sheena
can’t do anything to you anymore!”
Jennifer felt immensely proud hearing that.
She was about to reply when a commotion erupted from outside the door as if something had
fallen.
The two exchanged a glance and got up to open the door.
A servant was delivering Jennifer’s gown when she accidentally collided with a passing housekeeper’s
cart, causing the items to scatter on the ground.
Erin wrinkled her nose in distaste. “Oh my, how did it get so messy? It’s so dirty!” From NôvelDrama.Org.
The housekeeper approached nervously, apologizing, “I’m sorry, Ms. Moore. We’ll clean it up quickly.”
Jennifer frowned in annoyance, but with Erin present, she could not scold them directly. Instead, she
politely smiled and said, “It’s alright. We have many guests today, so please tidy up quickly.”
She then turned her attention to the servant who was helping to clean up the mess. “Please bring in the
altered gown quickly. Let’s not waste any time.”
“Yes, Ms. Moore.”
The servant promptly picked up the gown box from the floor and followed Jennifer into the dressing
room.
Jennifer opened the box, revealing a stunning, white haute couture gown.
Erin was amazed. “Wow! That’s such a beautiful gown! Is this from the renowned designer from
abroad, Ms. Zoe? Jenny, you truly deserve to be the star of tonight’s banquet. Your parents really dote
on you. I’m so envious.”
Jennifer felt flattered by the praise and modestly replied, “Oh, come on! It’s nothing. Erin, you’re the
little princess pampered by the Freeman family, after all.”
They complimented each other back and forth. Erin even took a few snapshots to showcase their
friendship on Twitter, accompanied by the caption, [My best friend’s homecoming banquet! She’s
gorgeous.]
This quickly drew a flood of comments from Erin’s fans, showering them with praise, which Erin
enjoyed as she had been locked up for a long time.
Jennifer smiled along, trying to get her to leave. “Erin, could you please check how many guests have
arrived outside? Isn’t it almost time to start?”
“Sure.”
Once Erin left, Jennifer promptly made a call.
“How’s that bitch? Will there be any issues tonight?”
Katie replied confidently, “No worries, my people are keeping a close eye on her. Just enjoy the show.”
With Katie’s assurance, Jennifer finally let go of her worries. Thinking about the upcoming show, she
could not help but feel the excitement bubbling within her.
Tonight, she was determined to outshine that bitch and become Farlem’s top socialite!
