Both Ingrid and Selena were stunned.”
It’s you?!”
Joyce sat on the chair next to Yvette with her back to them. She kept her head down as she was playing with her phone and did not even lift her head, ignoring their presence.
Yvette laughed, sized them up, and snickered. “Why can’t it be me? Oh wow, you’re both wearing the clothes Joyce didn’t want?
Ingrid’s face turned red with anger and wanted to teach her a lesson, but she did not forget her main purpose of coming over.
“I won’t bother with you. Hey, finale model, I wanna take a picture with you!”
The moment Selena Price saw Yvette, her expression changed. ‘If Yvette could come, then does it mean that Joyce was also here…? I wasn’t mistaken?
In an instant, Selena clenched her fist and had her gaze affixed to the woman sitting with her back facing them.
“Are you deaf? Come and take pictures with me!” Ingrid was annoyed that she was ignored by a model.
Yvette chuckled and looked like she was ready to watch Ingrid make a fool of herself. “Who the hell are you? Why should anyone listen to you?”
Ingrid gritted her teeth. “It has nothing to do with you! Mind your own business!”
She looked at the model who was still unmoved. “Hey, you! I’m the Young Lady of the Beckett family. How much do you want to be willing to take a picture with me?”
‘What’s so big of a deal?’ Ingrid thought.
Ingrid only wanted to show off to her friends. Otherwise, she would not have asked for a photo. In the past, Ingrid was used to others surrounding her and asking her for a picture.
Joyce raised her eyes in annoyance.’
Can’t I have a moment of peace?’
“Young Lady of the Beckett Family, huh? I don’t recall seeing you on the guestlist…” Joyce finally spoke and turned around, sweeping a cold and sharp gaze at Ingrid and Selena.
They should be counting their blessings that I didn’t find fault with them. They even dare to find trouble with me? They really have a death wish!’
Ingrid was shocked and said in disbelief,
You… It’s you?!”
That beautiful model is actually Joyce?!
Joyce even did the closing walk for this coveted fashion show? How is she so calm and stunning?!
“Yeah, it’s me. Is there a problem?”
Joyce looked at her indifferently,
Ingrid’s face was glum. She had already been humiliated by cole earlier today, and now, she was standing here getting pissed off by Joyce once again.
“Hmph! Quit pretending to be elegant and high-fashion. Even if you wear such a beautiful dress, you will never get rid of that smell of poverty on you! I think that
I’ve been cursed to see you two wherever I go!”
Ingrid no longer wanted to take a picture with Joyce because that would only pull down her status.
Yvette laughed in exasperation. “Hahaha!
You’re saying that we smell of poverty?!”
“What? Am I wrong? I didn’t expect your sugar daddy to be so capable that he can get you into this show, but it doesn’t matter because once I disclose your identity, you’ll get kicked out of here!”
Ingrid raised her eyebrows smugly. She firmly believed that Joyce could only get i n because of her backer.
How could such a high-society event tolerate the presence of an unseemly mistress like Joyce?’
Joyce faintly hooked her lips and let out a disdainful light laugh.
Before she could retort, Julie said, “Who’s getting kicked out now?”
Ingrid recognized Julie as the founder of
Share and walked over in a fit of anger to discredit Joyce.
“She’s the woman who was kicked out of the house by my brother, Tristan Beckett.
She’s not from a rich family and she’s not worthy of being here!”
Julie’s eyes were cold as she glared at
Ingrid. “It’s you two who should get lost.”
Ingrid froze as Julie swept a glance at
Selena, then withdrew her gaze in contempt.
“I don’t remember sending you an invitation. If you come uninvited, I can have security kick you out!”
Selena was stunned and hurriedly spoke,
“She’s the Young Lady from the Beckett family. We got the tickets through a friend and didn’t sneak in.”
Julie laughed. “I didn’t even give a ticket to the President of Beckett Corporation, let alone any Young Lady…”
o the President of Beckett Corporation, let alone any Young Lady…”
Ingrid’s face turned red and hot as if she had been slapped. Her reputation went down the drain in an instant.
“Also, tell me which friend is it who gave you the tickets? They’ll be the first to be on our blacklist.”
Selena clearly felt Julie’s hostility and was a bit flustered. She swept her gaze to
Joyce. “What about her?
What right does she have to be here?
Joyce raised her eyebrows. Julie hooked her lips. “I guess you didn’t listen to my interview earlier. Joyce is the founder and partner of Share, which means that she’s the boss here!”
Selena and Ingrid froze for a moment.
Their change in expressions was amusing to watch.
Joyce pursed her lips and said in a cold voice, “So can you get lost now? Or if you prefer, we can get security to kick you out
Hearing Joyce’s words, Selena Price frowned slightly. Ingrid Beckett also did not expect Joyce to have this level of relationship with Share.
“The founder of Ingrid’s favorite brand,
Share, was actually Joyce?!’ Ingrid thought.
Ingrid did not want to get kicked out by security. If that happened, she would become the laughing stock in tomorrow’s headlines.
She coldly snorted. “Why are you so smug? I don’t wanna come back to this sh*tty place!”
She gritted her teeth and dragged Selena away.
When they got to the entrance downstairs, Selena stopped in her tracks.
“Wait.”
“What’s wrong?”
Although Ingrid did not want to leave empty-handed, Joyce would really get the security guards to kick them out if she did not leave on her own accord. That would be more humiliating then.
“I think I saw your brother. Why don’t we wait for him?”
‘If Tristan recognized Joyce, would they meet and rekindle old feelings?’ Selena thought.
Thinking about the change in Tristan’s attitude towards her since she came home and the fact that she did not spend any time alone with him, it looked like Tristan was avoiding her.
“No, I can’t give them this chance!
Selena thought.
When Ingrid heard this, she nodded and said righteously, “Sure, I’ll also tell him how Joyce bullied me!”
The two of them were sitting at the lounge near the entrance, so no one paid attention to them.
After driving these two women away,
Joyce was in a good mood, but Yvette was not satisfied. “Why didn’t you just get security to chase them out? Why are you saving their reputation?”
Julie cast a sidelong glance at Yvette. “If we make a big deal out of it, the protagonist of the day will be changed. Ruining their reputation comes secondary to our success!”
Yvette finally understood and let out a faint “oh”
“The one behind Ms. Beckett is Tristan
Beckett’s lover?” Julie asked.
Joyce nodded insouciantly. “Coincidence, right?”
Julie snorted coldly.
“Tsk tsk… I thought she’d at least look good. I didn’t expect this….”
‘Is Tristan Beckett blind?! How can that face compare to Joyce?!’
The party was coming to an end and the guests were leaving one after another.
Tristan originally intended to leave after a while but was dragged around by Keith. He did not expect to see Joyce on the runway or overhear her say that she had never worn a wedding dress before. At that moment, his heart had a wave of complex emotions, but he still did not leave.
