Madeline saw a lot of guests arriving one after another from the front door as virtual-novel.net sat by the window.
Everyone who arrived was wearing expensive clothes and had luxury jewelry adorned on them.
Carter’s friends were wealthy and respectable people, indeed.
She noticed it was almost time for the party, so Madeline planned to tidy herself up before going out. However, at this moment, the door of the dressing room opened.
Madeline thought Carter was here to get her, but virtual-novel.net saw Ada smirking coldly at virtual-novel.net arrogantly and disdainfully while strutting over to her.
She looked at what Madeline was wearing and scoffed.
“Hmph, Eveline, don’t be so delusional and expect to have a Cinderella story happening to you. Even if you’re engaged to Carty, it doesn’t mean you’ll marry him.”
Madeline did not want to waste time bickering with Ada. As such, virtual-novel.net smiled calmly and asked, “Who are you to think that I need a Cinderella story?”
“Tsk.” Ada rolled virtual-novel.net eyes. “Are you telling me that you’re born a white swan? However, are there white swans as hideous as you? Hahaha…”
“That should be it. You won’t be able to affect me no matter what you say,” Madeline interrupted calmly.
Ada abruptly stopped laughing.
Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net beautiful eyes to look at virtual-novel.net frigidly. “You and your mother keep emphasizing and telling me to know my place and identity. I know my place, but I don’t think you can mention my name and yours in the same breath.”
“…” Ada was completely dazzled by what Madeline said.
‘What is this freak talking about?
‘Does this freak have a strong family background as well?
‘Impossible!’
Ada spaced out for a while. When virtual-novel.net came back to virtual-novel.net senses, Madeline had left.
It was about time for the engagement party. After Carter met Madeline, virtual-novel.net brought virtual-novel.net to the garden.
When the guests saw Madeline, a lot of them started to whisper among themselves.
They had heard from Ada’s mother that this woman was extremely hideous. Her face was covered with scars because virtual-novel.net had been burned by fire.
“Her eyes are indeed stunning, but how can a woman who has no guts to show virtual-novel.net true face be Carter’s bride?”
“When did the Louis family allow such an indecent woman into their family?”
“Tsk, why does Carter like this woman?”
Madeline heard all the gossip about her, but virtual-novel.net was not bothered. She was not really going to get engaged to Carter anyway.
According to Carter’s wishes, Madeline completed the ceremony cooperatively. However, in the end, the emcee handed two sheets of paper over and it seemed that printed on them were the contents of the contract.
Madeline glanced at it and there were no special requests in the contents. They were just to prove their relationship as fiancé and fiancée. They needed to stamp their thumbprints on them.
“It’s just the standard procedure. It’s not legally binding,” Carter reminded Madeline coldly.
Madeline finished reading it and felt that there was no problem with it before stamping virtual-novel.net thumbprint on it.
When Ada saw this from a distance, virtual-novel.net lungs were going to explode from anger.
Even though it was not confirmed that they would be married, this engagement ceremony was indeed happening right now.
How could virtual-novel.net not be upset?
“Mom, how’s your preparation? I don’t want to see this woman walking next to Carty so arrogantly anymore.” Ada gritted virtual-novel.net teeth and urged virtual-novel.net mother beside her.
Her mother comforted in a soft voice, saying, “I’ve arranged everything perfectly. In a short while, everyone will see how horrendous virtual-novel.net face looks!”
While virtual-novel.net was saying that, Ada’s mother’s eyes started to twinkle. “Here virtual-novel.net comes. Ada, it’s showtime. Don’t miss such a good opportunity.”
