Chap 2: Prepare for party

Lily found it amusing to sit and watch her mother repeatedly choose the map. It would be lovely to be like this if she only cared about her.

"Do you see what I mean"- Lady Taylor presented her with the red gown. Is the color so prevalent that you wish to incorporate everyone's ideas at the party?

"Or take that blue one, Mom!" - Lily pointed to the blue shirt in the glass cabinet. She didn't think it was very attractive, but it was the most prominent piece of furniture in the room.

"Lily, choose the which also be if you like! Should we stay for another round?"- Lady Taylor sadly pulled her red cloak. She wanted her daughter to be noticed among the city ladies. But she doesn't appear very enthused about it, and it's difficult for her to keep the conversation going.

" Ignore it, everything is fine!"- Lily hurriedly took the dress in her hand after seeing her mother's astonishment. Anyway, no matter what she wears, it's the same to her. Her mission is to attend the party and please her parents. Everything else is beside the point.

" If you don't like it, we'll find something else! Why don't you get that blue outfit for me, Lily!"- Lady Taylor was concerned when she saw her in such state. Of course, it was beneficial for her daughter to hear such things, but even the clothes without a personal view made her exceedingly concerned.

" There's no need. I'm exhausted and don't want to go! There's no need to be concerned, the gown is stunning, and I like it!"

" Lily, have you gone out already, or can I take you to the hospital for a checkup? How can I be sure when I see your face, which is so pale and lifeless?" Lady Taylor noticed her daughter had calmed down and swiftly took her hand in hers and spoke softly.

" I'm OK! It's merely that spending too much time inside makes the body weak!"- Her remarks are very plausible, as if she were an ordinary person who spends the entire day in a closed room without becoming weak. new.

" Could you just double-check on me?"-  Lady Taylor was well aware that her daughter blamed them for forcing her to stay in the mansion all day, but the two of them had little choice. If they failed to adequately protect her, they would be the ones in danger.

" I don't want to go to the doctor! My health is very good! You don't have to worry!"- Lily protested, she took the red dress in her hand and stood up to go to the checkout counter, but she had barely taken a few steps when she bumped into someone else. When the other party saw her, he frowned in displeasure.

" Why am I meeting you here again?" - Vivian was extremely disinterested and talked to her. Lily also feels that the world is round, just going to buy clothes, she can meet the person she hates the most.

" Am I the one to ask that?"- Lily glanced at her, then stepped aside, ignoring her.

Vivian looked at the dress in her hand, then looked at Lady Smith in the distance and understood in her heart the problem. Looks like this mother and daughter are also preparing for the party tomorrow

" I thought you didn't like participating in this kind of activity, but I didn't expect it to take a long time to prepare? Looks like it took a lot of effort!"- Vivian pouted mockingly, but no matter how high the sound was, it turned out to be just pretending in front of others!

" Is it related to you?" - Lily sighed, she didn't want to cause trouble but the other party still refused to let her go. Then don't blame her for not being respectful!

" Well, I was just wondering! Why do you have to be upset with me? I told you, no one in this circle doesn't have ambition, right?"- Vivian said, then turned and left, leaving Lily alone. Her words were like a knife cutting into her heart. She is right, there is no way to live peacefully in this circle. Speaking of which, Vivian hates her for her reasons too. Firstly, because of her background, since childhood, Lily lived far away from her parents, and she did not inherit the best upbringing. So for the ladies living in riches like Vivian, she was like a scabies toad trying to blend in among them. As for the second reason... this reason is a bit difficult to say, just like in the novels, the rich ladies hate her because she is engaged to the son of the mayor of the city. , the guy this whole New York dream of. Just talking about it briefly is enough to summarize Lily's precarious situation in this high-class world.

" What did Vivian tell you?"- Lady Smith worriedly stood beside her again. Lily shook her head to show that it was okay, she was used to this kind of words, anyway, they weren't wrong, she had no right to be angry.

" If someone bullies you, you have to tell me! Although we don't bully others, we can't let people bully us either!"- Lady Smith feels that her family's position in this city is not small, so her daughter does not need to look. Other people's faces live like that. This gentle girl will be bullied by others.

" It's okay! Mother rest assured!"- Sometimes Lily feels that her mother has taken her too lightly, has she forgotten how she has lived since childhood? Is there a difficulty you haven't overcome?

" Well then, I'm also worried about you! Let me pay for it!"- Lady Smith gave the bank card to the employee, then she held her hand and gently stroked it. A simple dress but almost as valuable as a car, the more I think about it, the more it feels like a waste. Anyway, she only wore it once and then dropped it in a corner.

- Let's go to dinner! I'll see you and your brother at the restaurant shortly!

- Brother? Did he come back? - Speaking of this older brother, Lily's face changed slightly, this is the only person who makes her feel the love in this house. But his brother often goes on business trips, and they rarely see each other. This time he came back probably because of tomorrow's party.

- I know! - Lily smiled and took her mother's arm, and the two of them walked out of the store and went out.
