Chapter 7 The difference between a biological sister and an adopted sister
'Don't you have a favorite? I think this one is just fine." Nancy came to help her pick out the dress immediately.
Seeing her mother go over as soon as Monica spoke to her, Anne was very reluctant. A light bulb went off when she saw the clothes in their hands and then followed them.
"Mom, this dress is very nice, but it's too expensive, and it's more suitable for gentlewomen with class."
So, she was sarcastic about herself being rude and vulgar?
Monica raised her eyebrows and said, "I didn't really like this dress, but I want to try it after hearing your words."
"Excellent! Try it on!" Nancy's eyes lit up and she hurriedly urged Monica. As soon as she looked at this dress, she felt that it would be very suitable for Monica.
Anne didn't expect Monica to say that and was very depressed.
How dare this bumpkin try on this dress!
Monica took the dress and went into the fitting room. Not long after, she walked out wearing this gorgeous and exquisite dress.
She was used to wearing pants that are good to go, while with this dress on, Monica just felt so thin and light.
Monica usually dresses casually. While she is slender and good-looking, and even in a simple T-shirt and pants, she also looked bright and valiant. However, she changed into this white dress was not only incongruous but also made her look more beautiful and outstanding.
When Monica let her tided hair down, her appearance was even more similar to Nancy's; they looked almost the same!
"Miss, you look so good in this dress!"
"There are many people who love this dress, but they don't look as good as you do in it!" The store manager's words sounded exaggerated like he was flattering Monica, but it was true.
Nancy was also very happy and said, "Just buy this one! It suits you so well!"
Anne stood on the side full of surprise and jealousy.
"Mom, I like this dress too, can I try it?"
She was a rich lady who was raised with care and attention. She didn't believe she would lose to a stupid bumpkin!
The store manager said with difficulty, "Miss, I'm sorry. All the clothes in our store are handmade, and there is only one piece of this dress, which is a limited edition for this season, there is only one."
Nancy was also in an embarrassing position, but this dress was too suitable for Monica. At last, she said, "Anne, the other clothes in this store are also very nice, let's look at other styles, okay?" After saying that, she asked the store manager to give Monica's dress a check.
Anne was so angry at hearing this that she wanted to stomp her feet, but she had to pay attention to her image and could only raise her mouth stiffly and try to smile.
Monica sneered secretly.
She never created trouble proactively, but if she was in trouble, she would not be afraid of it.
Once someone infuriated her, she would combat him!
Monica did not change back into her own clothes and wore this dress in front of Anne as she wandered around the store to choose other clothes.
Nancy found that Monica looked good in everything she wore, just like herself. She was very happy that once she saw some clothes that looked good, she took them to Monica and let her try them.
Anne saw that Nancy had bought several sets of clothes for Monica and chose six sets of clothes too. But Nancy only bought two sets for her on the grounds that she already had a lot of clothes.
This afternoon, Anne's face became darker and darker. Seeing Nancy keep holding Monica's hand and not letting her go, Anne was so angry that she could hardly speak.
"Mom, Anne?" A voice suddenly rang out.
Nancy turned around and saw her son. She said in surprise, "Justin? What are you doing here?"
"We're shopping! Justin, did you miss me today?" When Anne saw Justin, she rushed over and took Justin's hand familiarly, as if they had a very good relationship.
Seeing someone else next to him, Justin pulled off Anne's hand awkwardly and said, "Our company is planning to invest in this shopping mall, and I came over to meet their director."
Monica heard Jeffrey mention that Justin, her second brother, was a financier and very famous in the industry.
'Nice to meet you, Justin." Monica greeted politely.
Justin, just like Gavin, had inherited good genes from his parents. He was handsome and had a pair of wire-rimmed glasses on his prominent nose, which made him look more gracious and refined. When he saw Monica, his eyes immediately lit up: "I was wondering why there was a charming lady next to mom, it's my little sister!"
Monica was speechless. Her second brother looked gentle and polite, but why was he so immodest when he spoke?
Anne was a little upset and pouted, "But you never said I was a charming lady!"
They had never been so intimated all these years. Justin froze, but still responded quickly, "Needless to say, you are charming as well."
In fact, Justin didn't mean it when he said that, because Anne's appearance was not as distinguished as their families.
"Monica, I am sorry that I am busy these days and don't have time to entertain you. I will come home to invite you for dinner in a few days."
'Okay." Monica nodded and said.
Justin finished and went back to work. Nancy smiled and watched Justin leave before looking back at Monica dotingly, "Justin is crazy about making money and usually very stingy. His willingness to invite you to dinner shows how much he values you."
When Anne heard Nancy's words, her heart was sour like drinking Lipton lemon tea - she was jealous!
Indeed, Justin hasn't invited her to dinner in all these years, while Justin was so generous to Monica as soon as she came back.
Was this the difference between a biological sister and an adopted sister? Why?
But she was the one who had been living under one roof with them for more than 10 years!
