Chapter 97
Better things worth having?
She cant even get Lance, let alone someone better.
Even though Chloe knew these words were meant to comfort her, her heart still fluttered.
She remembered a face that was instantly imprinted in her mind.
Thinking about the deep kiss by the lake last night, Chloe felt her lips still burning. The man’s breath was like a warm breeze burning her cheeks.
Chloe’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and she closed her jaw a little to hide the blush on her face.
Jonah caught a glimpse of the unnatural shyness on the girls face and smiled slightly
“Kid, do you have a crush on someone…7‘
Before he could finish his sentence, the curtains in the room were lifted, and Keira appeared at the door with Carolina, both of them looking straight at the bed.
“Grandpa, you look great today!”
Keira looked at the faint smile on Jonah’s face and said cheerfully, her voice was sweet and obedient.
“Chloe came to see me, I’m naturally happy Jonah’s tone was calm.
Chloe calmly tugged at her lip.
“Chloe”
Keira suddenly called her name, then let go of Carolina’s arm, held the box in her hand, and walked to the bed.
“This is a dress that Grandma specifically asked me to get for you!”
Keira stated.
The corner of Chloe’s mouth was a bit stiff, and she couldn’t help but feel a wave of bitterness in her heart.
“Chloe, Keira likes the necklace around your neck, give it to her.”
‘Chloe, Keira likes the dress in your closet, give it to her.”
“Chloe, Keira likes to play piano, don’t participate in the piano competition.”
“Chloe, Keira and Lance are in love, forced love isn’t sweet, let them be.”
Her repeated concessions led to their repeated aggressions, and they even thought that all of this should be taken for granted.
When she was finally left with nothing.
She instead had to accept their charity.
What a joke.
“This is a dress I bought and haven’t worn yet, Grandma asked me to give it to you. Sister, shall we go to the banquet together on Friday night? See, it suits you so well, doesn’t it?”
As Keira happily chatted, she opened the box and took out the dress.
A black evening gown.
The bottom was a fluffy black skirt and the top was a
collar covered with sequins, as was the waist, and with the thin lacy see–through design, people could almost see all the skin from the collarbone down.
Outdated, indecent–in short, it was ugly.
She really wondered how Keira got this dress.
Was it prepared in advance to humiliate her?
Such a dress that no one would want to wear, how could she actually bring it out openly, in front of Grandpa and Grandma, and happily think she’s done a good deed?
Compared to the dress Lance bought for her for half a million yesterday…
If she accepted this dress, she would definitely be laughing stock of the party.
You can imagine how ridiculous the scene would be then.
Keira, always taking advantage of the opportunity to provoke her.
Chloe glanced at her, stood up, and pushed the dress Keira handed over to the side.
“Save your ‘kindness! I didn’t say I was going with you.”
