A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Lyana narrowed her eyes dangerously. She had always kept a low profile in the past, but Julie had already crossed the line today.

An evening dress could not be worn by someone else after being worn once. It would be rude for another person to wear it again.

She had already worn the dress her grandmother had made. Since Julie didn’t seem to care about being humiliated, she let him carry it. It would be too late for her to regret her actions in the future.

Lyana picked up her phone and made a call.

– The conference room of the Second Academy of Medicine. Help me choose a dress.

With that, Lyana hung up.

Julie, who was standing to the side, was slightly stunned. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and his tone turned cold.

– This dress was a gift from Grandma for you. How dare you not want her? You are overstepping the bounds.

– I’m sorry, I’m not like you. I will never use things that don’t belong to me.

Lyana looked at Julie coldly.

A trace of panic flashed in Julie’s heart, but she calmed down very quickly. Holding the blouse, she headed for the locker room.

There was no way Grandma would make a dress for Lyana. She was the one Grandma loved the most. Grandma would only make dresses for her!

Lyana was indeed from the countryside. She didn’t know the label at all. She was nice enough to help him, but she didn’t appreciate it.

Since it was, she let Lyana make a fool of herself in front of everyone. How could the dresses Lyana owned be any good? She would certainly wear cheap and unpresentable clothes. Julie pursed her lips. In this case, even if Grandma asked her, she could tell that she had tried to persuade Lyana.

Everyone watched Julie leave. Then, their eyes all landed on Lyana.

They thought Lyana was going to fly into a rage over the humiliation. They hadn’t expected her to be leaning against the wall and chatting with a young girl, looking relaxed and happy.

Seeing that Lyana was pretending to be calm, everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

– She failed to get her hands on the dress made by Matriarch Sanchez. Is that why she went mad? Do you think she intends to wear this outfit on stage?

– Who knows ? She doesn’t even want to wear the dress made by MS Her standards must be very high. Even so, I bet she’ll be wearing a cheap, hideous dress when she takes the stage to give her speech later.

– It’s true. Later we can see what kind of dress she will wear. Maybe she’ll give a talk on how to steal other people’s clothes.

Lyana’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. It wasn’t because she was unhappy with what the onlookers were saying, but because she could feel Nathan staring at her. This look made her uncomfortable.

She was now totally certain that Nathan and Ines had known for a long time that she was not Jacob and Olga’s biological daughter. That’s why Nathan had done those bestial things. About ten minutes later, Julie appeared in front of everyone in the diamond-encrusted dress, instantly catching everyone’s attention.

Everyone looked longingly at the beautiful dress that Julie wore, which attracted all eyes.

The unique patterns were encrusted with luxurious diamonds, complementing the overall design of the dress. Everyone was amazed.

– Oh my god, it’s beautiful!

– This dress truly lives up to the status of the work of Matriarch Sanchez. She is simply gorgeous!

– Lyana must be dreaming to think that she will one day be able to wear this dress. Does she think she is worthy of such a beautiful dress?

– She didn’t ask someone to send her a dress? The dress she brings must have only cost a few hundred dollars. It will not be at all comparable to a dress handmade by Matriarch Sanchez.

After admiring the dress, everyone’s gaze fell on Julie’s face. All realized that the effect was rather strange. Julie was very beautiful, but this dress did not match Julie’s aura at all. There was an indescribable incongruity.

This dress was flawlessly beautiful, but with Julie’s face and figure, it seemed far more ordinary.

She looked like an innocent student who had insisted on wearing heavy makeup to hide her quirky temper. The dress was out of place on her.

At that time, five young girls came in, each wearing two dresses covered in black cloth.

Everyone’s interest was piqued. One by one, they looked on curiously. They wanted to know which girl in the family had organized such a big procession. Julie was slightly stunned. She had a bad feeling. Could these people be there to give Lyana a dress?

The five girls approached Lyana holding the dresses.

– Miss Dubois, we weren’t sure what style you like, so we brought you ten different pieces. Take a look and see if you like them. Otherwise, I go back to the studio to buy more.

The respect in the girl’s voice made Lyana sound like some kind of big shot who was undercover.

A smile tugged at the corner of Lyana’s lips. She said gratefully:

– It was hard for you this time. I can wear anything. Just pick one for me.

The gazes of onlookers landed on the ten dresses. They pursed their lips. It was indeed cheap goods. Otherwise, how could ten dresses have been sent at once?

– Maybe she bought them on the internet for cheap. That’s why they brought so many.

– Exactly. Didn’t you realize it’s only been half an hour since the call? Yet these young women have already brought the dresses here.

– That’s right. What kind of family can produce so many evening dresses at the same time?

– Lyana Dubois is so pretentious. She makes a show of herself on purpose. No matter how her speech goes today, she is sure to leave a lasting impression on everyone.

However, there were still some who spoke sincerely.

– Why do I feel like this whole staging looks pretty classy?

– Of style ? How does this garment compare to Matriarch Sanchez’s handmade dress?

– Actually, I think these dresses shouldn’t be too bad either. Think about it. Director Schmitt invited Lyana here especially. Someone Director Schmitt personally invites must be someone quite extraordinary.

Seeing that some people were standing up for Lyana, Greta’s expression darkened instantly. She glared at that girl and angrily said

– What nonsense are you talking about? Did a donkey kick you in the head? What can she do? A big hit? You think too much.

When the surrounding people heard Greta’s words, they all frowned in disapproval, not wanting to pay attention to her.

Julie stood to the side. She felt her waist was slightly uncomfortable, and it was only getting worse. It must have been due to the dress she was wearing. She dared not breathe, afraid that the zipper would suddenly open. Julie only hoped that dress would last until the end of her speech. Hearing the words of the onlookers, the five girls removed the black cloths.

In an instant, everyone present was stunned.

God’s goodness.

These ten dresses were too beautiful. They were in no way inferior to the dress designed by Matriarch Sanchez. Moreover, they covered a wide range of styles.

Each dress was elegant, luxurious, and yet not flashy. They fit the current theme perfectly.

Lyana looked at Julie and finally chose a black dress.

When Chiara saw this, she couldn’t help laughing. She was now looking forward to seeing Lyana in a dress. It would be truly breathtaking.

When everyone saw Lyana choosing the black dress, they started whispering among themselves. They thought she was challenging Julie.

At first sight, Greta was also stunned by these dresses, but she couldn’t believe that a peasant had the money to buy such expensive dresses. She asked uncertainly, – These… these dresses are all high-end replicas, aren’t they…

– Is that really a question? They must be fake.

When one of the girls who had brought the dresses heard Greta’s words, she frowned. These people had gone too far. What a bunch of idiots! They did not know how to recognize the priceless when it was obvious to them. She said coldly

– These dresses were designed by the famous Elena. If you don’t know anything, shut it down. You are ashamed of yourself.

Elena.

She was a top designer from another country. She was said to be as famous as the Matriarch Sanchez. Moreover, it was said that she mainly focused on designing dresses for the royal family.
