Chapter 415 Tactics In the afternoon, Sierra did not eat much because she wanted to look good in her gown. Hence, she was starving, considering it was already past 8:00 pm.
Seeing the wide variety of food on the buffet table, Sierra's eyes darted around as she struggled to decide what to eat. The steak looked delicious, but it would not be very convenient for her to eat it.
Lowering her head to glance at her gown, she decided to control herself. As a result, she settled on eating sdesserts.
She took a plate and chose two small cakes. Then, she found a quiet corner to sit and rest a bit. However, the second she sat down, she was immediately surrounded by a group of women.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter being surrounded so suddenly, Sierra frowned and looked at the group of women, immediately sensing hostility from them. "Do you all want this corner to yourselves? I can just let you have it.
She did not want to argue with them in such a setting, so she chose to back down.
Unfortunately, despite wanting to maintain the harmony, the women did not feel the sway. One of them had even purposely extended their leg when Sierra rose to leave.
Luckily, Sierra had been keeping an eye out on the floor, afraid of falling due to her heels. Otherwise, she would have tripped and fallen on her face.
Sierra's expression fell as she turned to look at the group of women.
Seeing their smug expressions, she took a deep breath and sat back down. "This place is taken. You all will just have to find somewhere else." Then, she began eating her cakes while ignoring them all.
Tessa's smile fell, and her voice was contemptuous as she said, "Weren't you just about to leave? Why aren't you leaving? Are you just playing with us?" Lauren stood there arrogantly and looked at Sierra in disdain, behaving as if Sierra were beneath her. Then, with a scoff, she added, "You're just a poor woman clinging onto the Gray family. First, you clung onto Benson.
"Then, in the blink of an eye, you married Mr. Gray. You really aren't willing to let a single man from the Gray family go, aren't you? It seems like Mr. Gray Senior really likes you. Don't tellyou..." Although she had not finished her sentence, everyone present understood what she tried to imply. They immediately covered their mouths and laughed.
Sierra did not understand their intentions, but she did not plan on letting them insult her either. After picking up a piece of untouched cake, she threw it in Lauren's face.
The chocolate ganache and pink whipped cream immediately fell on Lauren's strapless pink dress. The once cute and beautiful dress quickly becstained and dirty.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith hands outstretched, Lauren screamed. Looking down at her clothes, she tried to blink amidst the whipped cream that had accidentally gotten into her eyes. Then, she touched her hair in disbelief and yelled in anger when she saw the mess on her fingers.
Noticing Lauren's disheveled state, Tessa and their group of friends quickly surrounded her.
When curious onlookers turned to look at them, they immediately smiled apologetically, not wanting to draw any more attention to themselves.
Once everyone looked away, Tessa glared at Sierra with hatred, demanding, "How could you smash a cake on her in front of so many people? Do you want to humiliate her? You're so cruel!" There were several influential people from the business industry, and
many of their peers were at the banquet. As for the heiresses, they were using the banquetas an opportunity to look for a suitable opportunity partner for a marriage alliance. That was why Tessa and her group of women had gone the extra mile with their outfits today.
Seeing her ruined dress, Lauren immediately felt aggrieved. She had only said sharsh words, yet Sierra went overboard with her retaliation. How could she do something like that? "Sierra, are you crazy? I only said a word or two. How can you lose your temper and do such a thing? Listen here. Unless you apologize to me, I will never forget you!"
In Lauren's eyes, the Shaw family did not have the right to attend such a high-class event. Naturally she m viewed Sierra as a poor bitch who could not be compared to her. At the stime, she did not see anything wrong with her harsh and malicious accusations. Instead, she felt Sierra's outburst proved that she lacked tact and class, convincing her that Sierra used underhanded tactics to marry Theo.
