Chapter 212

Chapter 212 The Black Gown Looking at her reflection in the compact mirror, she was amazed by how beautiful she looked in the black gown and matching makeup. “The top makeup artist’s makeup skill is indeed on another level. I almost couldn’t recognize myself! Yvette is so kind to make an appointment for me with Mr. Capello.

Oh, you can’t imagine how difficult it is to get an appointment with him.”

After the car came to a halt, the chauffeur turned to face Shandie and flattered her, “Ms. Shandie, you’ve inherited those beautiful facial features from Mr. and Mrs. Southall. You’re a natural beauty! You look stunning even without makeup on. That has nothing to do with the makeup skill of the makeup artist.”

Shandie raised her brow at the chauffeur’s words.

Although she was pleased, she remained silent as the mention of Cindy left her seething with anger.

Cindy had always claimed to be a clever woman. However, in the end, even Yvette was more helpful to her than that woman was.

“I’m going now. I’ll call you when the party ends.”

With that, Shandie eagerly got out of the car.

Unbeknownst to her, the chauffeur called to report to Arielle as soon as the door was closed.

During the period when Cindy was not around, Arielle had bribed the housekeepers in the manor.

Those people all had soft spots. Hence, their loyalty to Arielle was unquestionable.

As for those who were unbribable, she didn’t get into contact with them so as not to alert Cindy.

In the end, she had obtained information about the identities of those who were Cindy’s lackeys. It was a good thing that she didn’t try to bribe all of them in the beginning.

As soon as she answered the call, the chauffeur reported through the phone, “Ms. Arielle, I’ve let Mr.

Capello do Ms. Shandie’s makeup and watched her enter the venue as per your order.”

Arielle uttered a response before ending the call.

Sitting next to her, Vinson shifted his gaze from the document to her. While scrutinizing her expression, he asked, “Who’s that? Why do you look so happy?”

“Is it that obvious?” Arielle touched her own face. Then, she stated smilingly, “Well, someone called to tell me that a good show is about to start.”

“Good show?” Vinson repeated after her.

Nonetheless, seeing her in a good mood seemed to have made him feel happy as well. Hmm… How weird it is…

Meanwhile, Shandie hurried into the Actonward residence as soon as she got out of the car.

The yard was full of guests in their white suits and colorful gowns. None of them wore black outfits or even black accessories.

All of them had avoided dressing in black, for they knew Yvette’s father was around and that black color was taboo for the Guzzur tribe.

Being the only one dressed in black, Shandie stood out as soon as she entered the yard.

Nevertheless, she didn’t think too much. She counted herself lucky that not only did she wear the most stylish gown, but its color also didn’t clash with that of other guests’.

Ha! God is on my side! I will definitely shine at the birthday party tonight!

Thinking that she was about to stun everyone, she was so excited that she couldn’t suppress her smile.

However, poor Shandie failed to notice the shock or malicious pleasure in the guests’ eyes.

Finally, the party began.

The guests handed over their invitation cards before they entered the mansion hall.

Initially, Shandie planned to enter the mansion as soon as possible, yet she soon changed her mind.

She quietly walked toward the end of the line, wanting to make a grand appearance to grace the party.

Everyone should get the chance to admire the most beautiful lady at the party!
