Chapter 11 Something
Happened at the Dinner Party
Scarlett Darcy’s scream attracted the attention of everyone around.
Her high–end customized dress was stained with red wine, and her delicate makeup and hairstyle were also ruined. She was so angry that she wanted to argue with the person, but when she looked up, she received a slap!
Zoe Redford was wearing an identical dress to Scarlett Darcy’s. She raised her hand and wanted to hit her again.
“Why did you hit me?”
Scarlett Darcy was hit for no reason. Even though she recognized the person in front of her, she still didn’t back down.

“Yeah I’m hitting you! Who do you think you are? How dare you wear the same dress as me to this kind of dinner party! I know. It must have been arranged by Chloe Redford, right?
I just said that she couldn’t be so kind as to send me a dress!
She deliberately sent me a fake one and let you wear the genuine one, just to make me look bad in front of so many people. Where is she? Where is she hiding?”
Zoe Redford was someone who had been spoiled since childhood and had never suffered any grievances. Naturally, she was haughty when facing Scarlett Darcy.
Just thinking that she was wearing a fake dress to the dinner party today and being

laughed at by so many people, she couldn’t control her anger.
“What are you talking about? What does your wearing a fake dress have to do with me? Chloe Redford isn’t here. I don’t know about the things between you two!”
Scarlett Darcy almost shouted out in a state of collapse. She had dressed up carefully, and it was the first time in her life that she had worn such a beautiful dress and attended such an occasion. Now it was all ruined.
At this time, the onlookers looked at the identical dresses on the two of them. How could they not understand what was going on!
The whispers of the people around reached the ears of the two of them. Zoe Redford

was even more certain that Chloe Redford had deliberately made her embarrassed today.
But since Chloe Redford wasn’t here now, she could only take her anger out on Scarlett Darcy.
“Who allows you to wear it!”
She took a step forward and wanted to tear the dress off Scarlett Darcy. Fortunately, the people around stopped her.
“Miss Redford, is there a misunderstanding? I think the dress you’re wearing is the genuine one! Look at the cut and the texture!”
“That’s right. You’re the second daughter of the Redford family. How could you wear a fake? As for that woman, we’ve never seen

her before. She’s probably some nobody. The dress she’s wearing must be fake!”
The words of the people around made Zoe Redford feel much better.
Yeah! She was the second daughter of the Redford family. Even if she had been tricked by Chloe Redford and was wearing a fake, in the eyes of these people, it definitely wouldn’t be her who was wearing the fake!
“Nonsense! The dress I’m wearing is the genuine one!”
Scarlett Darcy was hit and was also accused of wearing a fake dress in front of so many people.
Facing the mockery of the crowd, she couldn’t hold back any longer!

“This isn’t a fake at all. Don’t you dare slander me just because of your status!”
The women’s quarrel eventually attracted the attention of the men. When Jasper Ellis looked over, he just saw a group of people surrounding Scarlett Darcy.
His heart tightened, and he immediately stepped forward to protect her behind him.
“What are you doing!”
When Scarlett Darcy saw that Jasper Ellis had come, she immediately changed from her fierce appearance just now and started crying pitifully.
“Jas, they said the dress I’m wearing is fake!”
Jasper Ellis’s heart skipped a beat, and an unnatural look appeared on his face.

When he saw Zoe Redford opposite wearing an identical dress to Scarlett Darcy’s, his face froze for a moment.
“Jasper Ellis?”
Zoe Redford looked at the two in front of her and said sarcastically,
“Now you two don’t even avoid people. You’re just walking around together like this. Where’s that stupid Chloe Redford! Could it be that she still doesn’t know about your affair?”
When Zoe Redford said this, the way everyone looked at Jasper Ellis became a bit strange.
They had all heard that ambiguous “Jas” just
now.

Jasper Ellis distanced himself from Scarlett Darcy and said to Zoe Redford,
“Stop talking nonsense! Just because you’re Chloe’s sister doesn’t mean I won’t do anything to you!”
Jasper Ellis didn’t have much confidence when saying this. After all, he knew how troublesome Zoe Redford could be.
He didn’t expect to run into her here today, and she had the same dress as Scarlett.
Upstairs, Dylan Kane originally had no interest in such things. However, Owen Pierce was someone who loved to join in the fun. As soon as he heard that there was a commotion downstairs, he insisted on dragging Dylan Kane to take a look.

“Isn’t that Jasper Ellis? Why is he having a tantrum with his sister–in–law? I heard that this little daughter of the Redford family, Zoe Redford, is particularly arrogant and domineering. She often bullies her sister. Jasper Ellis must be speaking up for Chloe Redford.”
Dylan Kane beside him sneered.
“You can’t even understand what’s going on while watching the excitement! Do you think the person Jasper Ellis is protecting behind him is Chloe Redford?”
When Dylan Kane said this, Owen Pierce noticed the person standing beside Jasper Ellis.
“Hey, there’s going to be a good show today. The so–called ‘best man in Marinopolis‘ is going to have his reputation ruined

tonight! Is Zoe Redford standing up for Chloe Redford? That would be even more surprising!”
“This is your Pierce family’s dinner party tonight. And you still have the mood to watch the excitement here!”
Owen Pierce leisurely swirled the red wine in his hand and said indifferently,
“What does the Pierce family’s business have to do with me!”
Downstairs, the crowd gradually gathered around. Jasper Ellis didn’t want to make a big scene and was going to take Scarlett Darcy and leave.
However, for some reason, Scarlett Darcy was stubbornly insisting that the dress she was wearing was the genuine one and even

demanded that Zoe Redford apologize to her.
If there weren’t so many people around and Scarlett Darcy wasn’t pregnant, Jasper Ellis really wanted to leave.this embarrassing woman behind.
“Scarlett, stop making a scene! That’s Chloe’s younger sister. She’s just a naive child! For Chloe’s sake, don’t argue with her!”
“What do you mean ‘don’t argue with me‘! It sounds like I’m the one being unreasonable. Make it clear that you’re the one walking around with a woman outside behind that stupid Chloe Redford’s back. If anyone should be not arguing, it should be me!
Also, Scarlett Darcy, you should take a good look at your own status! I don’t want to meddle in your messy affair with Jasper Ellis, and I don’t care how you deceive Chloe

Redford! But don’t disgust me in front of me and dare to wear the same dress as me! You should see if you’re worthy of it!”
Zoe Redford’s harsh words were like a thorn that deeply pierced into Scarlett Darcy’s fragile self–esteem.
At this moment, she didn’t care about hiding her relationship with Jasper Ellis anymore. She pushed Jasper Ellis aside and was about to fight with Zoe Redford.
The people of the Pierce family had to step in at this time.
“Two ladies!”
It was Owen Pierce’s stepmother, Violet Donovan, who spoke.
“Both of you are in your prime, and you look

good in whatever you wear! As for who is wearing the genuine dress, it’s a coincidence that today the Pierce family invited
Lawrence, the designer of the Santier brand. With him here, it’s natural to tell which dress is the genuine one!”
As soon as these words were spoken, Jasper Ellis just wanted to take Scarlett Darcy away and not let the matter get any bigger.
“Fine! Then invite Lawrence to come and see who is wearing the fake dress!”
Scarlett Darcy was certain that the dress she was wearing was the genuine one. She thought that Jasper Ellis was stopping her just because he didn’t want Zoe Redford to lose face.
If it were normal, Scarlett Darcy would definitely listen to Jasper Ellis, but today was

the first time she had dressed up beautifully and attended such an occasion.
If she left in such a sorry state today, this matter would become a stain on her life. When she married Jasper Ellis in the future and re–entered this circle, she would definitely be laughed at by these people:
So, she would never back down!
