Chapter 775:
However, Cayson didn’t react with anger as he usually would.
Cayson cleared his throat before turning to Austin. “Regarding what happened today… I owe you my thanks. Without your help, things might have been worse for Yelena p>
Even though Cayson wasn’t there, he could easily imagine what had happened, and the thought made him break into a cold sweat. Austin responded humbly, “It was nothing significant. I’m sure anyone else would have done the same p>
Cayson’s view of Austin softened somewhat, appreciating his modesty.
Shortly after, Yelena emerged, freshly attired.
Opting for simplicity, Yelena applied just a touch of lipstick to enhance her complexion and left her hair down, cascading naturally over her shoulders.
Yelena’s curls flowed like waves, each one shimmering as if kissed by the sea, adding a shiny glow to her appearance. Her curls tumbled from her crown to her shoulders, creating a picture-perfect scene. They fluttered softly in the breeze as if telling tales of the ocean, adding to her mysterious charm.
Her hair resembled a masterpiece, each curl a stroke of artistic brilliance that radiated life and beauty.

She looked like a fairy who had wandered into a forest—delicate and charming.
A guest asked with a puzzled look, “Miss Harris, who might this be?” Logically, the attendees of the Harris Group’s annual gala were either employees of the company or distinguished, wealthy individuals. Yet, Bernice appeared as an unfamiliar face, not resembling the typical socialite from Eighfast.
Bella turned her head, and as soon as she saw Bernice, the smile on her face immediately faded slightly.
Bernice appeared vibrant and charming. A shadow crossed Bella’s eyes. Since breaking free from Bella’s control, Bernice had only grown more and more beautiful. However, Bella did not want to see that unfold.
Despite her feelings, Bella maintained a polite facade and introduced her, “This is my cousin Bernice, my aunt’s daughter p>
The crowd murmured in surprise, recognizing the name but baffled by her transformation. Before, Bernice favored heavy makeup, which aged her and seemed out of style.
