Chapter 188
Amelia was going to the Smith family’s banquet, so Maddie went to the Taylor family in advance to pick her up.
When she reached the Taylor family, she realized that Amelia did not have any makeup on.
Maddie frowned subconsciously. “We’re about to set off. Why aren’t you wearing makeup?”
It would take nearly two hours to drive from Evervale to Layfield. Time was tight and there was no time to put on makeup.
Amelia clenched her fists and looked up at Maddie with a smile. “I put on light makeup. It’s just not obvious.”
Maddie carefully observed Amelia for a while and frowned. “Your face is too pale, and your dark circles are very heavy. You look like a bullied wife and don’t have any vitality at all.”
As she spoke, she opened her handbag and took out an eyeliner. “I’ll put an eyeliner on you to make you look more energetic.”
“Forget it.” Amelia rejected. “That’s fine. I’m not the main character. No one will pay attention to me.”
As she spoke, she hurriedly walked out.
She was there to gain sympathy. How could she be energetic?
The venue of this banquet was a villa of the Smith family in the suburbs of Layfield.
When the Green family arrived, there were already many guests.
Ronald quickly pushed Mr. Green to greet the big shots in the business world.
Amelia had been looking down on the way here. She was not in a good mood.
It was only at the Smith family that she felt a little more energetic.
She clutched her handbag tightly in her hand and kept her gaze on the crowd as if she was looking for something.
Unfortunately, Olivia was nowhere to be seen.
Maddie, who had been paying attention to Amelia, also found it strange. Wasn’t Olivia Mr. Smith’s granddaughter? Why wasn’t she present at such
