Chapter 64
Chapter 64 As Beautiful as a Dream
Only then did Caitlin step toward Gwen unwillingly and say softly, “Um… Sorry.”
Yara responded, “Louder! I can’t hear you!”
Caitlin clenched her fists and closed her eyes as she raised her voice, “I said I’m sorry! Sorry!
“Is that enough?” She turned to Jake, pleading. “Jakel”
Her expression was more pitiful than anything.
Jake responded coldly, “Ask Gwen, not me.
Caitlin looked at Gwen with hopeful eyes.
“If an apology is enough, why do we need the police? Did I ever say apologizing to me would keep you out of the station? Mr. Hall, you’re quite presumptuous.” Gwen’s lips curled into a mocking smile, her attitude leaving Jake completely baffled.
*I was falsely accused for no reason, and you expect this to just blow over? Does her status as the Hall family’s daughter give her a free pass?”
It was precisely the repeated indulgence by the Hall family that emboldened Caitlin time and again, and Gwen wasn’t about to miss this chance to punish her. Upon hearing Gwen’s stance, Xenia immediately called the police.
The officers arrived and took a wailing Caitlin away once again.
Watching Caitlin being loaded into the police car, Jake’s expression darkened.
“Is it really worth making such a fuss over a simple diamond bracelet?” Jake looked at Gwen with incomprehension. “Why have you become so heartless now?”
Before the divorce, she had tolerated everything. But now, after the divorce, she treated the Hall family like enemies. This new Gwen felt more and more like a stranger to him.
He had already made Caitlin apologize and even offered to buy something to make it up to Gwen. He couldn’t understand what else Gwen was unsatisfied with.
*Really? I’ve always been this way. You just never noticed.” Gwen smiled indifferently.
She had no desire to explain herself to Jake. He wasn’t worth it.
Jake said nothing more and turned to follow Caitlin to the
tation.
The cold, faint smile on Gwen’s face vanished the moment his figure disappeared from view.
A few days later, Xenia’s jewelry exhibition arrived as scheduled, with tickets nearly impossible to get. However, Xenia had already reserved the best seats for her close circle of friends.
Before the event began, Gwen and Yara appeared backstage, both dressed in the latest handcrafted
haute couture from Prada.
Xenia, who had been deep in thought with a serious expression, immediately brightened up at the sight of Gwen and Yara, sensing a solution to her problem.
“Two of the models had an issue at the last minute, and I was just worrying about who could wear the pieces for the show.”
Xenia tapped her chin thoughtfully, then looked at Gwen and Yara. “You two are perfect.”
“Are we?” Gwen asked.
Xenia blinked confidently. “No doubt. Your poise and style are even better than the models. Trust me.
Gwen and Yara exchanged wry smiles, never expecting that attending a jewelry exhibition would turn into doing some hard labor for their best friend.
“Alright then, let’s give it a try.”
The jewelry show began.
The theme for this exhibition was ‘Embracing Nature“.
Most of the jewelry pieces were inspired by the pure colors of nature. International media had once commented that this collection broke away from traditional, outdated concepts, injecting new vitality into the world of jewelry.
The invited guests in the audience watched the runway intently, afraid to miss even a single masterpiece by Xenia.
Yara, with her lively personality, was chosen to open the show. She wore a set of yellow diamond jewelry named “Sunflower“, paired with a flowing, ethereal outfit that made her look like a sprite emerging from the heart of a forest.
As the music started, Yara’s cheerful steps instantly drew everyone’s attention. The audience below couldn’t help but marvel at the radiant jewelry and the model’s perfect presentation, their admiration evident in the murmurs of approval rippling through the crowd.
Yara smiled and looked toward Xenia, tilting her chin upward confidently.
Afterward, the professional models took to the stage in a seamless flow, showcasing the other pieces.
Finally, the most anticipated moment arrived–the grand finale!
Under the dreamy, ethereal lighting, a breathtaking figure slowly made her way down the runway. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
As Jake caught sight of the person stepping out, his dark eyes narrowed in shock, and from that moment, he could no longer look away.
Gwen’s delicate features were adorned with a faint smile, her exquisite makeup highlighting her flawless beauty. Around her fair collarbone, she wore the show’s finale piece, “Ocean’s Tears“.
It was a necklace crafted from the finest blue diamonds. The brilliance of the blue diamonds shimmered yet couldn’t overshadow Gwen’s own captivating allure. Instead, the two complemented each other perfectly.
The jewelry was dazzling, but the woman wearing it was even more
stunning-
Her entire presence radiated aristocratic elegance, with beauty that left everyone in awe. No one had ever seen someone so breathtakingly beautiful.
She was captivating hearts with such intensity.
The audience collectively forgot to breathe, unable to tear their eyes away. They were utterly mesmerized by every subtle movement and graceful smile Gwen offered as if entranced by her very being.
