The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 114

After changing her clothes, Ellinor walked out and Sheila bit back her laughter

She had picked out a particularly plain floral dress for Ellinor that made her look like a country bumpkin Ellinor was stunningly beautiful, even without makeup. Her complexion was clear, radiant, and flawless

Sheila worried that if she didn’t tone down Ellinor’s image a bit, she might steal her thunder at the upcoming party and even attract the attention of more nobles and wealthy

merchants

Sheila had always been jealous of Ellinor’s beauty, but seeing her now in a plain dress like a country girl, she felt somewhat relieved. She mockingly complimented

“Well, you don’t look half bad! This is the dress I specially picked for you. Wear it to the party with me!”

Ellinor walked up to the mirror and took a look, “Thanks, I think it looks pretty good”

The makeup artist next to them started to chuckle, whispering to Sheila, “Sheila, she actually thinks she looks good!”

Sheila laughed lightly. “She grew up in the countryside. Her taste is naturally like this. Give her simple makeup, nothing too flashy, or it’ll be embarrassing for me!”

“Don’t worry, Sheila, I know what to do!”

The makeup artist smirked and started doing Ellinor’s makeup with a mischievous attitude.

To please Sheila, she braided Ellinor’s hair into two braids and added lots of freckles and blush to her face for a more homely look.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Sheila was very satisfied with the result. Ellinor now looked like a country girl and no man would give her a second glance

Pearl Moon

Pearl Moon was a top–notch urban estate in the country. Only the most prominent families with status, position, and power could Rost parties here.

Even if ordinary rich businessmen were willing to pay a lot of money, they couldn’t host parties here.

Ordinary people couldn’t even step foot here in their lifetime.

The receptionist was at the entrance of the banquet hall, welcoming each guest with a smile

Sheila, dressed in a borrowed high–end custom black evening gown, confidently walked over and handed over her invitation.

“Welcome, Ms Mendoza Please come in”

The receptionist smiled and led the way, but stopped Ellinor, who was following behind her, “Malam, you can’t come in!”

Ellinor raised an eyebrow and explained, “I’m with Ms. Mendoza”

The receptionist looked skeptical at Ellinor’s humble outfit and didn’t seem to believe her, “I’m sorry, this is not a place where you can just walk in. Please leave now, or Ill have to call security!”

Sheila watched as Ellinor was dismissed and blocked by the receptionist. After feeling satisfied, she arrogantly lifted her chin, saying as if she were doing her a favor, “Don’t worry, let her in with me. She’s my assistant; she needs to be with me”

The receptionist blinked, looked back at Sheila, then skeptically glanced at Ellinor again and thought, how could the elegantly dressed Ms Mendoza have such a plainly dressed assistant?

“Oh… I see!” The receptionist apologized to Sheila with a smile, but her attitude towards Ellinor was still not friendly, ‘Since you’re with Ms. Mendoza, you can go in.”

Ellinor gave the receptionist a nonchalant look and calmly followed Sheila in

The banquet hall was magnificent and glorious, with renowned musicians playing elegant piano music. All the furnishings were filled with exclusive, aristocratic luxury

This was Sheila’s first time at the legendary Pearl Moon, she had only heard about it and never had the chance to see it before

Today, she finally got the chance, and the grandeur of Pearl Moon far surpassed her imagination.

She had acted as a rich girl in her previous plays and the crew would rent high–end hotels for the set, but compared to this real high–end banquet, that was child’s play!

Sheila composed herself after her initial shock, realizing she had overreacted, and quickly put on a calm and composed expression as if she were used to such grandeur

Seeing Ellinor also stunned, she immediately mocked her, “Look at you, all stunned Scared silly, aren’t you? Ellinor, if it wasn’t for me, you would never get to experience such high–end events in your life!”

Ellinor just smiled and didn’t say anything

She was just thinking about the time when a certain man had forcefully brought her here for an engagement, and her freedom was gone for three months, making her feel a bit melancholic
