The Heiress Who Took Revenge
Elaine looked at herself in the mirror, dissatisfied no matter how she looked. The makeup artist and stylist beside her were trembling. Elaine said coldly, “How do you people do your jobs? I said I wanted the makeup to look noble today. What are you doing with all this fussy jewelry? It’s unbearably tacky!” The surrounding makeup artist and stylist didn't dare to speak. They had already tried several different looks for Elaine, but she was dissatisfied with all of them—either they were too plain, or too gaudy. In the end, all their efforts had led to this. Elaine threw the headpiece onto the table and said coldly, “Do it again.” Hearing Elaine say this, the stylist could only bite the bullet and step forward. The maid at the door looked at the time, then walked into the room and said, “Ms. Elaine, it’s almost time. There’s half an hour left…” Hearing this, Elaine frowned. “Isn't there still half an hour? What's the rush?” “But… Mr. Hayes is rushing you.” Tyson had specifically sent the secretary over precisely to prevent Elaine from being disobedient. Elaine took a deep breath. It was just an engagement; she really didn't know what Tyson was so worked up about. However, Elaine didn't want to embarrass herself in front of the guests either. She said to the stylist, “Do a good job for me. You must finish within half an hour.” “...Yes, Ms. Elaine.” The stylist didn't dare offend her client and could only rack her brains to prepare a new hairstyle for Elaine. ... Eliza and Nolan had already arrived at the venue. Although they were doing this to sound out Tyson... ...Nolan had not been careless in the slightest. In just three days, he had the entire banquet hall decorated. And this engagement party looked far grander than most other banquets.Eliza couldn't help but say, “You had this premeditated, didn't you?” This banquet hall certainly didn't look like it could have been decorated in just three days. “The drafts for the engagement party and the wedding have been taking shape in my mind for a long time. I’ve been selecting for a while.” Nolan cared about her more than Eliza had thought. Eliza subconsciously averted her gaze. “...We're not even engaged yet, and you're already thinking about the wedding?” “From the moment you agreed to be my girlfriend, I had already planned our future. My future has always included you, and I will never allow you to be absent.” Eliza was still feeling shy about Nolan's words when Colton and Lewis, who had just walked over, heard him. They felt goosebumps all over. They never knew that this thousand-year-old iron tree, having finally bloomed, could say such mushy things. Colton said, “These sweet nothings... can you two wait until you get home to say them? Now is not the time for you to be all lovey-dovey.” Eliza asked, “Has Tyson arrived with his people?” “Not yet.” Colton shook his head and said, “Do you think that guy won't dare to come?” Eliza said, “Impossible. This is a Hayes family engagement party. Tyson definitely has to come.” ... Outside the banquet hall. Tyson and Elaine had already gotten out of the car. They looked just like a loving couple. Elaine had a smile on her face. The surrounding people, seeing Elaine and Tyson arm-in-arm, couldn't help but whisper. “I heard the Lynn family’s young lady was engaged to Nolan before. I didn't expect her to come today.” “She was willing to die for Nolan back then, even cut her wrists. Seeing Nolan with the Sue family’s young lady, won't Ms. Elaine be mad with anger?” “This is going to be a good show.” ...Everyone around wanted to see Elaine make a fool of herself. Hearing what they were saying, Elaine felt her chest tighten. But to maintain her dignity on the surface, Elaine forced herself to swallow her anger. Tyson, at her side, acted as if he hadn't heard a thing, merely leading her to the Hayes family elders. The elders looked at her with approval, and Elaine simply nodded her head slightly. Tyson had already warned her before they came not to cause trouble at this event. But Elaine's gaze still couldn't help but fall on Eliza and Nolan. Eliza and Nolan were arm-in-arm, looking inseparable, just like a newlywed couple. Elaine felt as if extreme flames of jealousy were about to consume her whole being. But because Tyson was by her side, Elaine could only retract her gaze. As if seeing what she was thinking, Tyson said indifferently, “Watch your decorum. Don't let people laugh at you. Otherwise, go sit on the side by yourself.”
