Everything went wrong today. First, she was ridiculed by Wendy when she just arrived. And now, Audrey had embarrassed her by wearing a fake dress. She couldn&#8217;t be angrier.<\/p>\n<p>She wished Audrey could take off that dress right now.<\/p>\n<p>One of Phil&#8217;s fans walked over.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I heard that someone is wearing a dress from Master Phil. Where is she?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, it&#8217;s not a dress from Master Phil. It&#8217;s just a counterfeit. I know you are a fan of Master Phil, but you&#8217;re gonna be disappointed this time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The girl named Gloria walked to Audrey, and her eyes lit up the moment she saw Audrey&#8217;s dress.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Wow, it&#8217;s his work for real!&#8221; Gloria&#8217;s fingers gently brushed over Audrey&#8217;s dress, as if she was touching a fragile treasure.<\/p>\n<p>Someone smiled and reminded Gloria.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, take a closer look. That dress isn&#8217;t from Master Phil. It&#8217;s just a counterfeit. You&#8217;re wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No way!&#8221; Gloria looked greedily at the handmade mark on the dress. &#8220;This mark is embroidered with gold thread through a special technique. It is impossible to counterfeit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria&#8217;s words caused uproar in the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>No one expected that a young lawyer could wear a dress from Master Phil.<\/p>\n<p>Wendy was unpleasant. She made a cough to remind Gloria.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, please look at it carefully. Are you sure you&#8217;re not making a mistake?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria shook her head, &#8220;Yes, I&#8217;m pretty sure it&#8217;s from Master Phil. Besides, the sewing technique of this dress is the same as Master Phil&#8217;s. And the sapphires on it are all Kashmiri. There&#8217;s no doubt about it!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria wouldn&#8217;t tell a lie.<\/p>\n<p>She sighed, &#8220;However, the production of the Kashmiri sapphire is very low. It is really difficult to gather so many sapphires in one dress. Because its design is low-key, average people won&#8217;t be able to recognize.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, Audrey was the most shocked one.<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t know that the dress was from Master Phil, and it was decorated with precious Kashmiri sapphires, making the dress even more valuable. She guessed &#8230; it was worth a villa.<\/p>\n<p>Why did Bryson give her such an expensive dress that could get her into trouble?<\/p>\n<p>Wendy looked at Audrey in disbelief.<\/p>\n<p>How could a young lawyer afford the dress from Master Phil?<\/p>\n<p>In front of such artwork, her dress was instantly eclipsed.<\/p>\n<p>Wendy clutched her dress angrily.<\/p>\n<p>A diamond on Wendy&#8217;s dress fell to the ground, causing a crisp sound.<\/p>\n<p>Gloria was squatting on the ground, so she picked up the diamond. When she returned it to Wendy, she frowned in surprise.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Eh?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wendy asked, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria scrutinized the diamond in her hand carefully, &#8220;It seems like &#8230; a fake.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria&#8217;s words caused uproar in the crowd again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What did you say? Fake?&#8221; Wendy&#8217;s mouth twitched, &#8220;This is the big final of Milan Fashion Week last week. How could it be fake?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria looked at the diamond carefully for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Then, she checked Wendy&#8217;s dress.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Although this dress is almost identical to the big finale of Milan Fashion Week,&#8221; Gloria said seriously, &#8220;it&#8217;s just a perfect replica.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All the celebrities gasped about what she said.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed to the empty seat next to Audrey and asked politely, &#8220;Excuse me, Miss, is this seat taken?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey smiled back at his humble attitude.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, it&#8217;s not!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The young man looked at her with a smile and sat down beside her.<\/p>\n<p>He asked politely, &#8220;Miss, may I know your name?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At first, Audrey didn&#8217;t know that he was talking to her, so she didn&#8217;t reply. But then she felt someone staring at her. She turned around and saw the young man&#8217;s smile.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey frowned and pointed at herself. The young man smiled and nodded.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey smiled awkwardly, &#8220;My name&#8217;s Audrey.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, it&#8217;s Ms. Audrey!&#8221; The young man introduced himself with a smile, &#8220;My name is Adrian Duran.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your surname is Duran? Then what is your relationship with Ms. Jessica, the organizer of this banquet?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jessica is my sister.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ms. Audrey, may I ask you to dance later?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sorry, I&#8217;m not a good dancer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t matter,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can teach you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was speechless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3462","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
