Chapter 880 Is the Ring on My Hand Beautiful?
From her looks, she was definitely from Vistalia.
"Who's this?" Natalie asked.
"This is Isadora Penrose, the youngest daughter of the King of Celestria. Her mom's from Vistalia. She's 17, and even at her age, her family's oil business is almost a monopoly," Heather replied.
Natalie glanced around, noticing many eyes on her, but she didn't care. Her gaze landed on Alice's face. She meant to just glance and move on, but Alice's twisted expression was too obvious to ignore.
Alice had lost a lot of weight due to an ectopic pregnancy and was wearing a complicated court-style dress with a crown on her head. She looked arrogant, keeping up her usual haughty demeanor.
Heather followed Natalie's gaze to Alice. She couldn't understand Alice's fashion sense; it was like looking at a giant squid.
Just then, Alice stood up and strode straight towards Natalie.
Alice couldn't stand that Natalie had actually received an invitation from Rebecca and was even being hosted by her. As Alice swaggered up to Natalie, many socialites' eyes turned towards them, eager to see what would happen.
Most of the socialites knew about the relationship between Natalie and Alice. Plus, the striking resemblance between the two hinted at some hidden secrets. As Alice approached Natalie, many socialites whispered among themselves.
Heather frowned, about to stand in front of Natalie when Natalie put a hand on her shoulder and stopped her, curious to see what Alice was planning.
Alice had a diamond ring on her left ring finger sparkling.
"I didn't expect you to come." Under various gazes and cameras, Alice didn't act like a shrew but rather became gentle and ladylike, as if she were a truly elegant socialite. "This is my ring with Adrian. Do you like it?" Alice said, turning the diamond ring on her finger, looking like a legitimate wife confronting a mistress.
Alice had previously relied on her friendship with Natalie to clear her negative public image. There was also a live broadcast at the moment, so she couldn't embarrass Natalie too obviously.
But Natalie immediately recognized that this ring was the engagement ring between Adrian and Alice because it was the same ring Natalie had worn on Alice's behalf during the engagement.
At this moment, Natalie felt that Alice was incredibly foolish. "Really? I forgot. Oh, I was there at your engagement."
Alice's expression suddenly changed.
Alice had been hospitalized due to an allergy, so Natalie had stood in for her at the engagement.
Alice had forgotten that Natalie was her stand-in! She pressed her lips together.
Natalie stood up with a smile, picked up a glass of champagne, and handed it to Alice. "Your ring is beautiful, but do you think my ring is beautiful?"
There was also a diamond ring on her ring finger.
However, this diamond ring, which should have attracted most people's attention and media coverage, was overlooked. Because Natalie's dress and the diamonds around her eyes made everyone think Alice's diamond was just an ordinary accessory.
