Chapter 831 Who Designed The Dress
Laney was stunned silent, standing there in utter embarrassment.
Meanwhile, Kelly casually walked over, greeted Imani in French, and shook her hand.
"Mrs.Sampson, Mrs.Harding doesn't speak French.I will act as her interpreter."
Imani immediately apologized to Laney in broken English.
"I'm sorry.I've been living in France for a long time and I'm used to speaking in French.I'm afraid my English is getting a little rusty
now."
Before Laney could respond, Kelly interrupted her, saying in flawless French, "It's not your fault at all, ma'am.You only spoke
simple French words just now and I assume everyone here should have understand it."
Imani smiled at Kelly and replied, "Your French is very fluent.Have you lived in France before?"
Kelly smiled confidently.
"I lived in Paris for half a year and learned French on my own."
Imani was taken a bit aback by that.
"That's impressive."
Kelly smiled shyly.
From the corner of her eyes, she noticed that Laney was being ignored.
This made her smile even wider.
Vera frowned and sighed.She didn't like how Kelly managed to steal all of Laney's thunder but felt powerless to stop it.
Besides, at least it didn't seem like Laney was interested in being the center of attention.
Vera could do nothing but look away.
At the same time, while Imani was talking with Kelly, she couldn't help but look over at Laney.She decided to take the initiative to
talk to Laney.She asked her, "Mrs.Harding, may I ask where you buy this dress? The design is so unique I've always wanted to
have a dress like that.French styles don't really suit my taste."
She was extremely interested in the dress Laney was wearing.
Kelly's smile froze on her face.She had been sure she was going to win but was miffed to discover that Imani was talking to
Laney again.She immediately interrupted them.
"Mrs.Harding's dress is made by a designer she randomly discovered.If you want, ma‘am, I can introduce you to a studio with
even real talented designers."
Because Laney couldn't understand practically any French, now she could belittle Janet as she wanted.Laney sensed that
something was wrong, however.She frowned and asked loudly, "Kelly, wasn't Mrs.Sampson asking me who designed the dress?"
Kelly didn't say a word in response.
Laney immediately continued, saying, "My mother-in-law hired Janet Larson from W Marks Studio to design the dress for me."
Imani could understand English.
When she heard Janet's name, it seemed to spark her interest.
"I remember Janet! She's Draco's assistant.I didn't expect her own designs to be as good as that."
As Imani spoke about Janet, her voice grew louder, and everyone looked over.
With so many people watching, Kelly realized she'd now have to translate Laney's words faithfully.
This made her seethe with anger.
The fact that Imani liked her dress so much made Laney very happy.
As it just so happened, Janet was there that day, so Laney said to Imani, "Mrs.Sampson, should I introduce you to each other?"
But Imani just shook her head, replying, "I will meet her when the time comes.Mrs.Harding, it seems that a dress as beautiful as
yours should be paired with a suit to stand by it.What a pity your husband couldn't come today."
Hearing Imani's words, Laney lowered her eyes.What a pity.She had hoped that Garrett would also come.
At that moment, a waiter opened the doors of the banquet hall.
The party had been going for quite a while by this point.Who could it be? Laney looked over.
It was Garrett! He looked a little rushed and out of breath.
Garrett was wearing a suit that perfectly complemented Laney's dress.His entrance just now was like a hero in a movie charging
in at just the right moment.
"My husband's here!"
Laney's heart beat like a drum in her chest.She ran over to him, holding the hem of her dress.
