Angel flashed a smile, “We’re all sisters here. If you don’t mind, I don’t either.”
Her words touched on Celeste’s birth identity, sparking another round of gossip.
“Can you believe it? A fake heiress turns out to be the real one, and the real one turns out to be fake. Even soap operas wouldn’t dare to pull that off.”
“Why on earth would Celeste show up at such a joyful family gathering?”
“Look at her now; she’s here to fish for sympathy or ask for money. I heard Mr. Campbell still looks after her quite a bit. Even though she’s not his biological daughter, he’s been helping her out on the quiet.”
“Mr. Campbell is such a good man. Even after his wife betrayed him, he still remains so magnanimous.”
Celeste was dying to roll her eyes.
She thought of the money Shawn had transferred to her, and it was all for show.
He wanted to create an image of a good father and a good man; wasn’t that his aim?
No matter what others said, Celeste’s expression remained unchanged, leaving them feeling unfulfilled.
Angel and Adriana exchanged looks, then Adriana said, “Celeste, you look down in the dumps after your divorce. This dress lenky kina online bargain with no taste at all. Couldn’t you find a decent dress for a wedding? If you really don’t have one, Angel can lend you one remember you used to wear her clothes a lot when you were little, and you were so close. You wouldn’t mind wearing her clothes, right?!
Seeing Celeste being mocked, Liam couldn’t help but want to step in, but Owen stopped him.

“Mr. Reed, don’t rush; your wife can handle it herself. She won’t be bothered by this petty stuff. As her husband, you should only step in when it’s really needed.”
Although Liam was aware of the situation, witnessing her being bullied made him feel compelled to intervene.
He used to always be there for her, always backing her up, no matter what. But now that she was alone, how could he not worry?
He suppressed his urge to help and could only stare at the group, memorizing their faces.
Angel looked at Celeste and couldn’t help but smirk.
She feigned concern and said, “Sis, I brought two extra dresses. They’re used but clean. Do you want to change into one?”
Celeste glanced at her, and Angel thought she was going to snap, but instead, Celeste asked calmly. “What brand is it? If it’s some cheap brand like the one you’re wearing, don’t bother, I’d rather wear my own clothes.”
Angel’s face changed, and she clenched her fists.
Adriana quickly said, “You clueless woman, do you have any idea how expensive Angel’s dress is? It’s a hand–made design by chief designer Lana! A celebrity even wore it during Paris Fashion Week. Do you know how much it costs?”
“Oh my gosh, I wondered where I’d seen that dress before. It’s the one Cindy wore at the Fashion Week. I thought it looked good in the video, but it’s even more stunning in person.”
“Lana is the most popular designer in the country right now; her ready–to–wear collections are incredibly sought–after, let alone her haute couture.” “To dare to call Lana’s design cheap, look at what you’re wearing. How can you say that?”
“Ah, from Mrs. Reed to illegitimate daughter, she clearly hasn’t accepted her new status yet. That’s why she’s so stubborn.”
Celeste was speechless.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
