Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 123 None Of Your Business

Illuminated by the lights, Julia stood there in a custom-made gown that fit her perfectly. The jasmine flowers that adorned the gown! were extremely lifelike and looked as if they had bloomed on it. Paired with her elegant makeup, she was the picture of refinement.

Over the years, Julia had made sure to take good care of her skin, and it showed. Her skin was far more supple than the skin of other people her age.

Charlie, who had not seen her in a long time, exclaimed when he laid eyes on her. “Julia, you look fantastic in that gown

He, too, liked jasmine flowers. As he drew closer, he could detect the faint fragrance of jasmine. He had to admit that it was mesmerizing.

The woman who stood next to Charlie was close to their age. Although she was also dressed elegantly. there was a distinct contrast as she stood next to Julia.

“Julia, that’s such a pretty gown you’re wearing! Is it made by a famous designer?” Linda smiled.

Thoroughly humiliated at being publicly admonished Linda, whose eyes were red, replied aggrievedly, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Hadley.”

Charlie felt a headache forming. Whenever the two women encountered each other, Linda would always be the one who came out on the losing side.
