Chapter 217
The Dress Was the Same as Miss Sterling's
Lake Geneva Kinley Private Estate.
Hazel Lewis, the Lewis family's young miss, was a fairly famous socialite in Chicago. This time, her girls' gathering was being held at the estate, and she had invited all the society heiresses in Chicago to attend.
Before Claire Bennett and Ruby Sterling arrived, quite a few rich young women were already inside the estate chatting and laughing, mingling and getting to know one another.
In this circle, connections were the most important thing. Quite a few of the people who came had gotten in through connections too, and now was the best opportunity to expand their own social circles.
After Kelsey Lee got in with Ruby Sterling's invitation, she was mistaken for Ruby Sterling. Quite a few people enthusiastically came over to chat with her, and she did not open her mouth to explain. Naturally, she borrowed Ruby Sterling's name and enjoyed all the unlimited glamour that came with it.
Hazel Lewis was surrounded by quite a few heiresses. After learning that the Sterling family's young miss had arrived, she led people over to greet her.
In an instant, it became lively around Kelsey Lee.
While she was enjoying the wonderful feeling of being fawned over like stars surrounding the moon, she was also secretly making up her mind that in the future, she absolutely had to work hard to become Mrs. Sterling!
"Miss Sterling, that dress you're wearing is so pretty. I wonder which private designer created it?"
Hearing this, the people nearby turned their eyes toward Kelsey Lee.
It made her panic for a moment.
The Lee family had already exhausted all their assets just to send her abroad for school. She had only just graduated and returned home, so there was no way she could have that much money to buy a dress that easily cost seven figures.
But if she bought a knockoff of a luxury brand, it would be too easy to expose.
In the end, she thought of the famous designer Vivian Yu. This dress was a super high-quality imitation version she had bought.
Anyway, Vivian Yu and Ruby Sterling were on good terms, so now that she was wearing a fake, everyone probably wouldn't think it was fake either.
Kelsey Lee said with slight guilt, "It's Vivian Yu's."
As soon as she said it, everyone revealed looks of amazement.
One of the heiresses standing beside Vivian Yu was named Holly Hart. The Hughes family's financial situation was a little worse than the others present, barely counting as upper-middle-class.
Originally, she had not been qualified to come to a place like this, but in order to expand her circle and connections, Holly Hart had gone to great lengths before finally getting in.
After hearing that Kelsey Lee was the Sterling family's young miss, she intentionally wanted to butter up to her.
Now, hearing Kelsey Lee say that the clothes she was wearing were designed by Vivian Yu, she hurried forward to suck up to her.
Holly Hart praised, "I heard Miss Sterling is very close with Vivian Yu. Master Yu's designs must be yours to wear whenever you want, right?"
"I'm so jealous that Miss Sterling and Designer Yu have such a good relationship. It's just too wonderful. You get new clothes to wear every day."
"The design, the cut, and the workmanship of this dress are simply too beautiful, too perfect."
Hearing Holly Hart's string of compliments, although Kelsey Lee felt a little guilty, she still quickly calmed down and curled her lips into a smile.
Just as she was secretly feeling pleased with herself, a strange, mocking voice came from the side. "Oh wow, a Vivian Yu design. So impressive!"
Everyone had been happily chatting, laughing, and praising, so this discordant voice was especially grating. Quite a few people turned their heads to look, wanting to see who was being so rude.
At some point, two women had appeared at the side.
One of them was dressed in an overwhelmingly flashy way. Her frizzy wool-curl hairstyle covered half of her delicate little face, and she was also wearing enormous sunglasses. Although she was piled up in designer labels from head to toe, she looked like a tacky nouveau riche woman.
The other one made everyone's eyes light up.
It was just that the clothes she was wearing—why were they the same as Miss Sterling's?
