Chapter 14 Put on the Wedding Dress Immediately
Elizabeth was taken aback.
She suddenly remembered that today was Alexander and Clara's engagement party.
She had heard about it from Oliver when she went to The Guise Mansion to deliver the money to them the other day.
She looked up at Clara's attire: a luxurious wedding dress, a diamond necklace around her neck, diamond earrings, and a flower crown on her head.
Elizabeth thought, 'Clara looked like a goddess.She was the main character today.But what was I doing here?'
Elizabeth looked down at her own attire: her white shirt was covered in brick dust, and her black skirt was full of scratches.
She continued thinking, 'Was I here to beg?What did Alexander mean by this?'
She kept questioning herself, 'What did his engagement party with Clara have to do with me? Did he make me come here to be humiliated?'
A surge of anger welled up in her heart.
Elizabeth looked at Clara with a calm yet sorrowful expression. "Yeah, what am I doing here?" she said self-mockingly.
"You! Elizabeth! You are so shameless! Today is my engagement party with Mr. Windsor! You're all dirty, limping, and your legs can't even close. Did you just get violated by several men and come here to bring me bad luck? Get out!" Clara cursed and wished she could tear Elizabeth to pieces!
It was not easy for her to hold this engagement party with Alexander.
Alexander didn't like to make a fuss and always asked her to keep a low profile. Even for this engagement party, Alexander didn't notify the Guise family; it was Oliver who found out on his own.
Fortunately, the Guise family had some wealth and managed to prepare everything needed for the wedding in just one day.
Clara's engagement dress and accessories, Lila's dress, and Oliver's suit, all of which were luxury items costing tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The Guise family also invited some close friends and relatives.
For such a joyous event as an engagement party, no matter how low-key it was, they had to spread the word.
Lila was inside the door showing off to a few close friends, "Although the Windsor family is the wealthiest in Aldoria; Mr. Windsor is a very low-key person. I just love Mr. Windsor's steadiness."
"Mrs. Guise, Clara is so lucky to marry into the wealthiest family in Aldoria. Congratulations, we relatives and friends can also benefit from this union. Let's keep in touch often," the friends flattered with smiling faces.
There was a long line of women in ALdoria who wanted to marry Alexander, but it depended on who would end up being the lucky one.
Naturally, the lucky person would supposedly be Clara, people rushed to flatter her.
Clara was supposed to welcome Alexander at the door when the few noblewomen invited by the Guise family to attend the wedding were flattering enthusiastically heard her shouting, "Security! Get this bitch out of here!"
Oliver and Lila came out one after another, and when they saw Elizabeth, they were so angry that it seemed like smoke was coming out of their ears.
"Elizabeth, you really have some nerve. You must have overheard about Mr. Windsor and Clara's engagement when you were at my house the other day, so you came to ruin it, right?" Lila accused angrily as she raised her fat finger and poked Elizabeth's face hard.
Lila mocked Elizabeth mercilessly, "Everyone, come and see! Look at her! In this state, her clothes must have been almost torn to pieces by other men. She even walks crookedly, obviously just finished doing her business as a prostitute. I almost forgot, Clara said you specialize in being a prostitute. Did you come here to bring us bad luck?"
"Elizabeth, we can't do anything about you bringing us trouble. But if you anger Mr. Windsor, you're seeking out death," Lila insulted Elizabeth with the most venomous words while also using Alexander to threaten her.
The people present also criticized and cursed Elizabeth.
Somebody sneered, "Do you think you can steal Clara's spotlight by coming here? I heard you were fostered in Clara's house for eight years. In those eight years, they raised a viper!"
Another chimed in, "A prostitute! You came to the wrong place to find business. The men who can come here, even if they look for mistresses, won't choose low-class goods like you. You should go to the workers' gathering place."
"Get out! You heartless thing! Always thinking of ruining Clara's happiness. You're so vicious. Why didn't you die in prison! Get out! When Mr. Windsor arrives, he'll make sure you die without a trace!" Oliver cursed as he pushed Elizabeth out viciously.
At this moment, Elizabeth had an urge to bite someone to death!
But why?
Why did Alexander make her come here?
Behind her, a playful voice said, "She's not a beggar, nor is she the dirty woman you say she is. She's my date."
Everyone looked behind Elizabeth.
"Mr. Tudor?" Clara was the first to shout in surprise.
"Miss Guise, congratulations on becoming Alexander's fiancée." Owen winked at Clara.
"Mr. Tudor, you and her..." Clara said as she looked at Elizabeth in disbelief.
"That's right, Miss Spencer got out of my car. She's my date for your engagement party with Alexander today," Owen claimed as he put his arm around Elizabeth's shoulder.
Elizabeth leaned weakly against Owen, her eyes coldly looking at Clara and the people present. She said indifferently, "Miss Guise, Mr. Guise, Mrs. Guise. I'm sorry, I'm Mr. Tudor's date for your engagement party. I'm a guest."
"Come with me!" someone interrupted. A strong hand suddenly grabbed Elizabeth's arm and pulled her out of Owen's embrace.
Elizabeth looked up and saw Alexander.
"Mr. Windsor, you're finally here. How do I look in my wedding dress today?" Clara asked eagerly.
"Mr. Windsor, you said the engagement party should be low-key, so we didn't dare invite friends. But somehow, Elizabeth found out," Lila explained with a smile.
She only explained halfway, seeing Alexander's face looking coldly as if he wanted to kill someone, Lila didn't dare to continue.
"Why are you here?" Alexander looked at the Guise family in disbelief. He hadn't invited anyone to his and Elizabeth's wedding, only he, Elizabeth, the priest, and Esme knew.
This wedding was just to fulfill Esme's wish.
"What?" Clara was stunned.
"Go back immediately!" Alexander commanded as he looked at Clara with an incredibly cold gaze. "Otherwise, you'll bear the consequences!"
The Guise family and their relatives and friends fell silent.
Alexander's eyes, cold as a sword, turned to Owen.
"Alexander. The person you're holding is my..." Owen couldn't finish his sentence.
Alexander tightened his grip on Elizabeth's arm. He said loudly, "Come with me and put on the wedding dress immediately!"
