Coralie did not expect Xenia to be troubled by this matter.
"It won't. Don't worry, you are different from me."
Coralie persuaded her.
"What is the difference? We are both women. Besides, it is said that all mothers-in-law do not like their
daughters-in-law," Xenia said and became even more worried. "It's over! No matter what I wear tonight,
his mother will not approve of me."
Coralie looked at Xenia, and she did not know whether to laugh or cry. She stood still, pinched Xenia's
face, and said, "You are beautiful and have a good family background. If his mother disapproves of
you, then it will be her loss."
"But what if..."
"There is no 'what if'." Coralie pulled Xenia into a women's clothing store. "You, just pick one outfit that
you like. Dr. Felton's mother will definitely approve of you."
"Really?" Xenia asked.
"Absolutely!"
Coralie felt that since Xenia was a good candidate, Harvey's mother had no reason not to approve of
her.
Xenia was 2 years younger than Coralie. She was 28 years old this year, but her dressing style was
different from Coralie's.
She dressed like a young lady in her early 20s. Sometimes she wore a sweater, short skirt and
sneakers. She could easily sneak into a university and blend in as a student.
However, Xenia knew very well that she could not wear sportswear that day. Instead, she bought an
ordinary T-shirt and a pair of jeans.
However, she looked no different from other girls in their early twenties.
Xenia liked the outfit very much. After putting it on, she stood in front of the mirror and looked very
satisfied. She did not forget to turn to ask Coralie, "Is this good enough for me to meet my future father-
in-law and mother-in-law? Is it too casual?"
"This suits your personality perfectly. Or would you like to pick the dress from the store just now?"
Coralie and Xenia had seen a light blue dress in the previous store that looked very beautiful. However,
Xenia was not suitable to wear that dress as she had an active personality.
"Maybe..."
Xenia nodded.
She decisively changed her clothes and went to pay the bill.
However, when they turned to exit the mall, Xenia suddenly pulled Coralie to the entrance of the blue
dress store and said, "No, I want to wear this instead."
"You want to wear this instead?"
Coralie was slightly surprised. She thought that Xenia was going to show her real self after what she
said.
"Yes, I think that a normal mother-in-law would like such a daughter-in-law."
As she spoke, Xenia walked to the counter and bought the light blue dress she had tried on earlier.
The skirt was long and it reached her knees.
Xenia directly wore the dress and left the store after paying for it. To suit the dress, Xenia took off her
flat shoes, bought a pair of sandals with thin straps and put them on. Then, she went to the beauty
salon to style her hair.
To Coralie, Xenia looked like a different person.
She transformed from a lively young girl to a young lady from a noble family.
"Do I look good?"
After Xenia finished her makeup and everything was done, she stood in front of Coralie.
Coralie looked at her from head to toe, then nodded and said, "Yes, you look great."
Although she looked great, Xenia seemed different from her usual self.
However, as Xenia liked how she was dressed, Coralie did not comment any further.
At this time, Harvey had got off work. After Coralie accompanied Xenia to buy some healthcare
supplements, they went to the underground parking lot to meet Harvey.
Sure enough, when Xenia got out of the elevator and walked towards Harvey's car, he was stunned.
"Dr. Felton, are you surprised?"
Coralie saw Harvey's expression and knew that it must be the first time he had seen Xenia looking like
this.
"Why are you wearing a dress all of a sudden?"
Harvey asked her.
"What's wrong? Is it inappropriate? Does it look bad?"
When Harvey asked her that question, Xenia was very anxious.
"No, you look amazing."
Harvey nodded.
Coralie could tell from Harvey's expression that Harvey had the same thoughts. The dress looked good
on Xenia, but it does not look like the usual her.
When Xenia heard Harvey's compliment, she felt relieved.
She opened the door and sat at the passenger seat. Then winded down the window and asked Coralie,
"Coralie, where are you going? Well give you a ride."
"No, it's fine. I'm going to Skylar's office."
The shopping mall was not far from Skylar's company, and it was about time for Skylar to get off work.
"Then we will drop you at Skylar's company."
Harvey offered upon hearing this.
It was an appreciation gesture to Coralie for accompanying Xenia shopping.
"Yes, come on in."
Xenia said as she leaned from the middle of the front seats to open the back passenger's door for
Coralie.
Seeing that they were persistent, Coralie did not refuse anymore. She opened the door, got into the
car, and thanked them.
When Coralie arrived at Skyton Corporation, she called Skylar but had no response.
She waited for a while at the door. Although she was officially Mrs. Holland, she was afraid to admit her
identity because of what had happened during the last annual meeting.
Coralie sat on the sofa in the lobby and waited for Skylar's call to get through. She wanted to ask him
what time he will get off work.
Dominic came out of the company and saw her there.
Dominic was also on Skylar's invitation list, but he had something to attend to so he did not manage to
attend their engagement banquet. However, he knew about what happened during Coralie and Skylar's
engagement.
Dominic walked straight to Coralie and said to her, ''Are you waiting for President Holland? He is out for
business now and will come back soon. You should wait for him in his office."
"Director West." When Coralie saw Dominic, she first greeted him and then expressed her troubled
thoughts, "It's alright. Everyone had a bad impression of me from the previous annual meeting."
When Dominic heard this, he laughed heartily. "It is not as serious as you think. Let's go. I'll bring you
in."
As he spoke, he ushered Coralie to the front desk.
When the receptionist saw Dominic bringing Coralie in, she immediately asked, "Dominic, this lady is..."
It wasn't because she did not recognize Coralie. There was such a big commotion during the last
annual meeting; who wouldn't recognize Coralie?
Everyone thought that she would not have anything to do with Skylar anymore.
"She is President Holland's wife," Dominic said, trying to make it more convenient for Coralie.
"Remember her face and do not stop her when she is here to meet President Holland."
Hearing this, the expression on the receptionist's face immediately changed. She quickly bowed and
said, "Mrs. Holland, please come in."
It was the first time that Coralie had been treated so politely by the receptionist and it was also the first
time she had been called "Mrs. Holland".
Dominic bought Coralie in then left.
Coralie hesitated to choose between the president's elevator and the ordinary elevator, and then she
chose the ordinary elevator.
As she got into the elevator, the two receptionists were in shock.
"Did you hear that? Mrs. Holland! She caused such a big commotion during the last annual meeting
and yet she can still be the president's wife!"
The two receptionists picked up their mobile phones and shared the news with various groups between
the company's colleagues.
As soon as the news was released, all Skyton Corporation's departments were in a heated discussion.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Naturally, there were no supervisors in the receptionists' chat group. However, as the news was spread
among the colleagues, it traveled even faster.
