Chapter 31 -31: Not Mother, but Foster Mother

Not only was Timothy Garrison dumbfounded, but Isolde Garrison and Emma White beside him were also stunned.

That unexpected yet somehow anticipated sense of defeat.

The moment they clearly saw Scarlett Garrison, the little bit of hope in their hearts completely vanished.

Scarlett Garrison was really the eldest daughter of the Jennings Family!

After the initial shock, what followed was an intense jealousy.

Isolde Garrison’s eyes turned red with envy.

She always knew Scarlett Garrison was beautiful. Every time they went out to attend a party, to prevent Scarlett from overshadowing her, Isolde would deliberately choose dresses with tricky and difficult-to-wear colors for Scarlett. Even if Scarlett didn’t want to wear them, Emma White would forcefully insist she did, in the name of “good intentions.”

Either wear it, or don’t wear anything at all.

But Scarlett had fair skin, almost translucently white, making even overly mature shades like dark purple easy for her to carry off. So after years of effort, Isolde Garrison only managed to give Scarlett a reputation among their second-generation as “good-looking, but with bad taste.”

But now, seeing Scarlett, free from the Garrison Family, wearing a finely crafted two-tone camellia gown, elegant and restrained yet lively, her all-black dress conveyed a sense of pure beauty.

Just that appearance alone instantly captured all the attention.

“Is this the Jennings Family’s eldest daughter? The dress she’s wearing seems like a high-end exclusive from the recent spring-summer concept release by Maestro Airey.”

Nearby, a woman whispered, and as every woman’s interest in discussing clothing, jewelry, and handbags never waned, someone immediately chimed in,

“No wonder it’s the Jennings Family. Even high-end concept designs not yet released officially are available to them.”

“Remember that fourth grandaunt of the Jennings Family? With her stature in the fashion world, getting such high-end pieces would be just a matter of a word.”

Isolde Garrison listened, her jealousy boiling over as she couldn’t help but edge closer, pretending to be somewhat worried as she whispered, “Could it be fake?”

As soon as she spoke, the women who had been talking suddenly fell silent and turned their heads sharply, looking at her as if she were an odd specimen.

After a while, someone snickered, full of derision, and without another word, they all moved to the other side, as if trying to distance themselves from a fool.

Isolde Garrison was so angry that her face almost twisted.

Instinctively, she wanted to seek comfort from Lydia Patterson, but when she turned, she saw that Lydia was also staring dumbly in Scarlett Garrison’s direction, clearly entranced.

Isolde Garrison gritted her teeth, her hands gripping her clutch tighter and tighter.

Just then, Scarlett Garrison’s keen gaze fell in their direction.

Scarlett Garrison did not immediately notice the Garrison Family, but subconsciously looked toward the crowd at the eerie black aura.

She wondered if someone had come to bring her more work, and when she looked closely, it turned out to be an acquaintance.

In just two days without seeing Isolde Garrison, the once faint gray shadow behind her had turned black and was now half-encircling her.

Who knows what grave mistake Isolde Garrison had made to attract such a thing.

Scarlett Garrison’s smile turned slightly chilled.

Luca Jennings and Donovan Jennings, standing beside Scarlett Garrison, noticed the subtle change in her expression and instinctively followed her gaze, seeing the three members of the Garrison Family.

Immediately, they frowned secretly.
