Chapter 6 Mom Chooses the Dress for Me
948 Words
Before Susan married into the Elinor family, she was a popular actress in showbiz. There were always rumors about her. It was said many men were pursuing Susan.
Back then, she got married when she was still in her prime, so many people felt sorry for her.
Now, she was almost fifty years old. But people would believe that she was just twenty-seven or twenty-eight.
"Mom, are you free today? I can't reach Aubrey. Can you choose the evening dress for the birthday party for me? You have good taste. The dress you choose must be the best!" Lia said to Susan in a soft voice.
In her previous life, she missed the chance to reconcile with her mother. This time she would not.
Susan looked at Lia in astonishment, as if she had seen something unbelievable.
In her memory, Lia had not called her mother for three or four years.
At the dining table, Lia's father and brother looked at Lia and Susan in surprise too.
Susan looked a little awkward and agreed.
In the past, Lia would have been angry because of her attitude, but this time... After Lia got a response, she was instantly excited. "Great, I'll go change my clothes now!"
With that, Lia ran off.
"What's wrong with her all of a sudden? Is she sick?" David looked at his wife in confusion.
"How would I know?" Susan had an awkward expression.
After all, Lia had never been close to her like this. The sweet voice calling her mother just now made Susan feel like she was in a dream.
"Lia has grown up and become sensible." Luka's eyes were red with emotion, and his face was filled with disappointment.
Luka sighed with mixed feelings.
He hoped that his cute girl would never grow up, so that he could protect her forever.
At the same time, he also hoped that Lia could grow up quickly and would not be afraid of any difficulties.
...
Aubrey appeared in the afternoon.
Lia's birthday party was held in the Elinor's manor on the outskirts.
Because it was an eighteen-year-old coming of age ceremony, Luka prepared a lot for his granddaughter and invited many celebrities to participate. This was also the reason that Aubrey had to make a move today.
She wanted Lia to lose face in front of these celebrities, so that Lia would fall from her glory to the abyss!
Aubrey carried the dress that she had carefully selected for Lia and entered her room anxiously.
"I'm sorry, Lia. I drank too much last night and slept in the hotel until now. Fortunately, I arrived before the party! I've picked the dress for you. It suits you very well. Hurry up and change into it. The party is about to start," Aubrey apologized as soon as she entered.
With that, she looked up at the person in front of her and was stunned.
Lia was wearing a star-studded long dress with many diamonds. Under the light, the diamonds shone brightly, making her look particularly dazzling.
Lia changed her previous style. She did not do a complicated hairstyle. Her makeup was very light, but her naturally curly long hair was naturally loose. Between her black hair, she was wearing a hair band that was also full of diamonds.
Even Aubrey, who hated Lia to the core, felt that she was so beautiful.
"Why are you..." The corners of Aubrey's mouth twitched stiffly.
Aubrey had originally prepared a very gorgeous dress, and she wanted to be more beautiful while she stood with Lia. But because of the marks left on her by the men last night, Aubrey had to change into a dress that wrapped herself tightly.
"I couldn't find you today, so I asked mom to help me choose a dress. Mom said it was very beautiful and I liked it very much, so I won't trouble you today," Lia said with a smile.
Her gaze swept over the gown in Aubrey's hands.
Without checking, Lia could tell that this must be an ugly skirt.
As the daughter of the Elinor Group, Lia had to attend many parties every year. Originally, she had a professional stylist to help her with her styling.
However, Aubrey always took the initiative to rush to the front and then used the most rustic and ugly clothes to persuade Lia.
At that time, she was stupid and did not realize that Aubrey was messing with her.
For a time, Lia felt that there was something wrong with her and even felt inferior because she didn't look well in those clothes.
"But I think this dress suits you better." Aubrey was still unwilling to give up.
"Really?" Lia thought for a moment and then reached out to take the dress. "I'll take it to Mom. You know. She knows fashion very well. It's right to ask her!"
When Aubrey heard this, she immediately snatched the dress back.
"It's better not to trouble her."
Even though Aubrey didn't want Lia to appear charmingly, Susan wasn't stupid.
Aubrey couldn't let Susan become suspicious of her.
Aubrey secretly gritted her teeth. Susan had never liked the i***t Lia. Under her years of instigation, the relationship between them was so bad that they had stopped talking for a long time. Why did Susan choose a dress for Lia today?
However, Aubrey soon calmed down. Anyway, the matter of the photos had been settled. Just let Lia enjoy a short period of glory.
For a while, the more beautiful she was, the more people looked at her. When the photos were released, the more embarrassed she would be!
When Aubrey thought of this, she immediately felt happy.
