Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 353 Conflict Between Women

In an instant, everyone was startled. Their attention was focused on Jean. Mrs. Harper’s eyes widened. “Are you calling me noisy?”

“Yes. Your voice is loud, noisy, and rude. At least he’s apologizing. All you’re doing is emphasizing how expensive your outfit is. Have you not seen money in your life? It’s just a modified version of an outfit that was modeled at fashion shows. Do you have to make it such a big deal?”

Coincidentally, Jean had seen the outfit in a magazine. But it was a magazine on jewels. She paid attention to the necklace that matched the dress instead.

The dress wasn’t cheap, but it wasn’t as big a deal as the woman made it out to be. From her reaction, it was as if she had wanted to swallow the server alive.

“Of course, you can ask him to apologize or compensate you, but there’s no need to disturb others. Turn around and have a look. People are watching you like you’re a monkey in a zoo. Is it that interesting?”

Some guests started to agree with what Jean said. Mrs. Harper wasn’t looking very good. In an instant, there was a thorn between Jean and her. “From what you’re saying, I can’t berate him even if he splashed red wine all over me?”

Mrs. Harper stared at Jean. “Or are you saying that you’ll compensate me on his behalf? If you’re not going to do so, step aside.”

Jean furrowed her brows.

She had just been annoyed that the woman was being noisy, but now, her temper was rising.

“I won’t compensate you, and he doesn’t have to either.”

Jean sized up Mrs. Harper from top to bottom as she carefully recalled the picture she had seen in the magazine.

Her gaze was so penetrating that it made Mrs. Harper very uncomfortable. “You…”

“The fold on the left seems like it isn’t a design from the modified version. The embroidery at the bottom isn’t quite right, and the small diamonds on the shoulder aren’t very shiny. Your outfit seems to be a good counterfeit.”

Jean crossed her arms, and she had a very confident tone.

Mrs. Harper’s face immediately flushed. She said loudly, “What nonsense are you spouting? How can I buy a fake?”

People around them started to agree. “I’ve seen a sample of this dress. It doesn’t look quite the same as what Mrs. Harper is wearing.”

Mrs. Harper panicked at once. “I just altered it because the measurements of the dress aren’t quite right. What’s wrong with that? This doesn’t affect the price of the dress.”

“This means that you modified it?”
