Chapter 12: Young Master Ethan's Childhood Sweetheart
"Just give the gown to Miss Rivera already!"
"Well..." The shop assistant awkwardly looked at Howard.
Just then, Elizabeth stood up. She walked to Howard, and said with a smile, "Howard, didn't Ethan
come with you?" Her voice was as gentle as water.
Howard held Ethan's childhood sweetheart, Miss Rivera, in great respect. He replied politely, "Miss
Rivera, Young Master Ethan didn't come personally. He just ordered me to collect Miss White's gown."
Howard's tone clearly showed Annetta that he was on Elizabeth's side.
His words were undoubtedly implying that although Young Master Ethan had ordered this gown for
Annetta, he had not brought Annetta to collect it, nor did he have any intention of attending Annetta's
grandfather's birthday banquet with her.
A smile flashed across Elizabeth's beautiful eyes, and she greeted Annetta gently and amiably, "Miss This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
White, long time no see. You still have a way to please Ethan as usual. Ethan has never spent time
ordering a gown for a woman. Even though we grew up together and are close, he has never done
anything like this for me!"
Everyone knew that Elizabeth was Ethan's childhood sweetheart. Elizabeth had deliberately said these
words to imply that Annetta was just a mistress who had successfully seduced Ethan.
Annetta's lips curled into a smile.
Elizabeth seemed to have thought of something and turned to Annetta's stepsister, "Carla, isn't Miss
White your elder sister?"
Carla was shocked at being called out. She glared at Annetta and said, "Yes."
"We can't do anything about it then. Although I like Designer S' gown very much, Ethan has already
ordered it for your sister. Let's look at other places."
In Toronto, although the White family were wealthy, they paled in comparison to the Rivera family.
Carla was Elizabeth's classmate, and it had taken her a long time to become Elizabeth's lackey.
Everyone knew that Elizabeth was a loyal fan of Designer S and only wore her dresses.
If Ethan had custom-made this dress for someone else, then it could only have been for Annetta.
Carla rushed at Annetta and said, “Annetta, did you hear that? Miss Rivera likes this gown very much.
Since Young Master Ethan ordered it for you, just let Miss Rivera have it instead. After all,” Carla sized
Annetta up and said with a smile, “It’s a waste of a magnificent gown to let a cripple like you wear it.”
"I think Master S would also prefer to have a good model for her design. Isn't Miss Rivera more
suitable?" She said to the shop assistant.
"It would be an insult to Master S if others saw her design on a disabled person."
The shop assistant began to hesitate after hearing her words.
The other customers in the store had been watching for a long time, and some of them were well-
known families who had business dealings with the Rivera family. At this time, they could not resist
speaking up.
"Young Master Ethan is head-over-heels in love with her? What an ugly woman!"
"I can't believe she's a cripple!"
"How dare she compete for the gown with Miss Rivera? Doesn't she know that Young Master Ethan
and Miss Rivera are childhood sweethearts?"
The shop assistant listened to the murmurs around her and finally came forward.
"Miss White, I'm afraid this gown is not suitable for you. Why don't you try another one?"
Annetta took in the surrounding slanderous murmurs as well as the shop assistant's attitude with a
smile.
Elizabeth had always been like this, even in her past life. She only needed to say a few words for
others to take her side and defend her.
