Chapter 393
Before Patrick could reach for it, Marianne snatched the invitation, her head held high in arrogance.
She strutted through the security checkpoint in her high heels like a proud peacock.
“You snobs who look down on people, open your eyes and take a good look! Remember the name ‘Wynn Group’! And remember our faces! The next time you see us, you’d better be respectful p>
The guard was speechless.
He had no idea how they had obtained that invitation.
Every guest who had arrived today was a world-renowned tycoon or a powerful figure.
This was the first time p>
He had ever encountered such rude people.
They acted like they were new money.
No, that wasn’t right. They couldn’t even be considered new money.
Miss Lancaster had just mentioned that the ridiculously large pearl necklace the woman was wearing was a nine-ninety-nine special with free shipping from some cheap website.
“Alright, let’s go in!” Patrick gave Marianne a push and walked inside. “Once we’re in, just keep your mouth shut if you can. We can’t afford to offend anyone here! Don’t cause trouble for me. If the Wynn family goes down, your family won’t be any better off p>
Patrick strode past her.
Marianne, having been scolded several times, gritted her teeth in frustration.
He had the nerve to look down on her family.
Their outfits for today were all paid for by her family’s money!
If Patrick weren’t so useless, she wouldn’t have had to scrape money from her family, and with such a tight budget, she wouldn’t have had to buy fakes online to
wear.
She had compared the counterfeit items with the real ones, and as long as you didn’t touch them, they were visually indistinguishable from the real thing.
She had no idea how Serena had seen through them!
The more Marianne thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt.
She grabbed Hailey’s hand and ground her teeth. “Hailey, you have to be on your best behavior later. Show your father that we’re definitely not any worse than that wench Serena p>
Hailey covered her swollen face. “But right now p>
“It’s fine. Once we’re inside, I’ll get you some ice to put on it! Once the swelling goes down and we touch up your makeup, no one will be able to tell!” Marianne pinned all her hopes on Hailey.
There was no better way to climb the social ladder than marrying an outstanding man!
As long as Hailey could marry into a top-tier wealthy family, all the corporations that were currently avoiding the Wynn Group would come buzzing around them like flies!
Serena was led by Patton to another building.
The moment she entered, Brianna, dressed in a pink gown, rushed forward, her face alight with excitement. “Serena! Thank you for the dress, I love it so much p>
She took Serena’s arm.
When her eyes landed on Serena’s dress, they lit up. “Serena, are we wearing matching outfits today p>
Although the two gowns had vastly different cuts and styles, Serena had initially assumed Nicholas had placed a private commission with her specifically for Brianna’s birthday.
So, when designing this backup gown to match Brianna’s style, Serena had still followed the requirements Nicholas had laid out, making only minor adjustments.
The two dresses, while very different in color and style, still shared a certain resemblance.
Serena held Brianna’s hand, looking her up and down before nodding in satisfaction. “It really suits you p>
“Of course it does! You designed it yourself, Serena!” Brianna twirled in front of Serena, her sweet, pretty face beaming with an excited smile. I’m going to frame this dress and pass it down to my children, and have them pass it down to their children p>
