Chapter 239 He Was Angry

Book:The Reborn Wife Published:2024-5-1

Layla had certainly put Elena through the wringer! She had claimed to be a master in makeup skills, but she had messed up Elena’s look and even left a stain on her dress!
Elena had to rush to get a new dress, and then she had put on light makeup on herself. That was why she was late to the dinner party. The dress she got at the eleventh hour seemed to have such a low cut too!
Even though it was not too revealing, Elena felt weird to have exposed so much of her skin. She had never worn such sexy clothes; the fabric even clung to her breast, which exposed most of her cleavage! Luacs had been furious when he saw her in that dress, but it was too late to find something else. Otherwise, she would not have put that on.
Layla and Lois thought differently. Even though the dress was a little too sexy, it looked as it had been tailor-made for Elena! The fabric hugged her body perfectly while it accentuated her perfect curves.
She would not have been able to fit in if she had been slightly bigger, especially if she had a flabby belly. However, she had a perfect bodyline, and her cleavage looked so alluring too! Even Layla, who had been Elena’s friend for so many years, was surprised when she realized that her friend had a slender waistline and a full hipline. Had Elena gone through a second puberty, and she had not known anything about it? The incredible thing about the dress was that the body-hugging fabric moved with her every single step. She looked like a sultry seductress!
Layla put her long hair in a bun, behind her head, that gave her a clean yet sexy look.
Layla helped Elena to pull her hair into a bun so that she would look neat and sexy. Elena also wore an ordinary obsidian necklace around her neck; it was an inexpensive thing that students wore. Its simplicity added a touch of innocence to her sensuous look that night.
When she walked into the banquet hall, no one knew if she was a lady or a fairy! Whenever she blinked innocently, a man would see her as the center of their universe. Her face, her scent, and even her breath could melt a man’s heart. Their blood boiled when they looked at her sexy body. It was as if there was nothing else on their minds!
Michael’s muscles tensed when he stared at the girl. Suddenly, there was a loud clatter; someone had dropped a glass onto the ground. He tightened his grip around the glass in his hand, in case it would slip from his hand. His intense eyes were set ablaze when he saw that slender body. It was a flame of fury!
Why did she put on such a dress? Did she people to ogle at her?
Elena had felt guilty when those men looked at her like that. She was uncomfortable with the low neckline of the dress. However, when she inadvertently saw the familiar cold gaze, her embarrassment immediately disappeared.
She straightened her back, and she exchanged a few words with Layla, she walked gracefully toward Henry. She did not even turn to look at Michael when she walked past him. It seemed as if she only had eyes for Second Young Master Sharp.
Henry tried his best not to look at her body, but the image of her slender waist had been firmly imprinted in his mind. That girl had looked like a gorgeous deity!
“Second Young Master Sharp, I’m very sorry for my tardiness. My dress was ruined, and I had to change into another at the very last minute.”
Elena was gentle, courteous, and elegant. Her exquisite face had so little makeup that one could not smell it on her. She was immaculate and beautiful, just like a white magnolia.
“It doesn’t matter. A beauty like you is worth the wait.”
Henry glanced at the waiter’s tray but shook his head. “Bring this lady a drink.”
“Yes, Second Young Master.” The waiter immediately went to the beverage area and returned shortly with a drink for Elena.
“Eldest Young Master Williams is also here.” Henry reminded her. “Let’s toast to him.”
“Hmm.” Elena looked as if she had only noticed Michael’s presence. She raised her glass and smiled at him.
“Thank you for coming, Eldest Young Master Williams. Cheers!”
She had such obedience for Henry! All men would go crazy for a girl as timid as her. It would have been nice if they could take her home. Michael tightened his fingers around his glass again as he looked at Elena in a fury! Ava bit her lip. She was so angry she almost failed to hold back her anger. He looked at that b*tch! She was also annoyed that Elena had worn such a revealing dress to that dinner party! Did she intend to seduce all the men? Shameless! She looked as if she would expose her entire body!
Michael did not reply to her, but he kept his eyes locked onto her. Elena felt a little overwhelmed, so she looked at Henry as if she wanted him to help her. Any man would have pitied her helplessness.
There was a rumor that Eldest Young Master Williams despised women, and it looked like there was some truth in that. He was totally indifferent when he saw such a gorgeous lady, and he even ignored her when she toasted him! That seemed to be rather impersonal. Elena was also his ex-fiancée!
“Is there a problem with Eldest Young Master Williams’s ability to appreciate beauty? Why did he dump such a beautiful fiancée and chose the one next to him?”
Someone whispered, “How can that woman compare with Third Young Miss Garcia?”
“That woman is Bentson’s Number One Enchantress, Ava!”
“Oh, is that her? I couldn’t recognize her. Why did Bentson’s Number One Enchantress look worse than Third Young Miss Garcia?”
“That’s right. It seems like Bentson’s Number One Enchantress lacked character. How did she get the title?”
“Perhaps she bought it.” Laughter followed that statement.
Although the voice was soft and muffled, Ava had heard it! She almost exploded, but she did not want to throw a tantrum at such a public place.
Elena was like a soul that lingered everywhere! Ava was infuriated. She took a glass of wine from the waiter and raised her glass at Michael.
“Michael, have a drink with me.”
Eldest Young Master Williams had ignored Elena’s toast. Ava was confident that Eldest Young Master Williams would respond to her! However, it did not look like he gave a damn about anyone. He slammed the tall glass onto the waiter’s tray and glanced at Henry coldly.
“I still have something to do. I shall take my leave!”
Then, he turned around and left! Ava’s eyes widened in shock. She did not expect that Eldest Young Master Williams would abandon her and leave on his own. Why was he so mad? Was it because of Elena’s dress? What did that have to do with him? They had dissolved their engagement! Why would he even care about her?
“Third Sister, put on a decent dress next time. This is just inappropriate.”
There was a rage in Ava’s mind, and her voice was quite audible.
“Don’t simply put on something just to attract the men’s attention. Your indecency is embarrassing!”
