Two weeks passed painfully slow and boring,her wound had already scabbed over,and axel had found most of the herbs leaving two most important herbs unfound.
After some treatments mirabel was able to go to,though she couldn't handle any strenous activities,she glanced at the scenery and felt quite bored.
She recieved a call from lillian and her eyes lit up,she had almost forgotten she had a friend.
"Elle,there's a class reunion tonight...are you coming?"
estelle frowned,she initially wanted to refuse,but was curious about tonight's drama.
"i'm so in"
"great..let's go shop for dresses"
Estelle chuckled and went to the garage she initially wanted to call cole but decided to test her skills,she didn't think there was any difference between a car and a carriage.
Thirty minutes later....estelle came out of the car looking utterly disheveled,okay maybe she had underestimated the influence of a car,her heart had almost leaped out of her chest for thousands of times,she realized for someone to drive a car you needed courage.
Though her driving skills were average,she was still afraid of an accident seeing the cars driving alongside her,she decided she would learn to ride a motorcycle as it was less frightening.
She looked around the mall and waited for lillian,soon a taxi pulled over,lillian almost burst into laughter seeing her weary face.
"did you age overnight?...just look at that tired expression"
She rolled her eyes"car fear"
Lillian burst unto laughter"a motorcycle would really suit you"
Her eyes lit up"could you teach me?"
Liliian chuckled awkardly"sort of"
They went into the mall and went to the clothes section each going to the changing room,they came out moments later,lillian was wearing a light green off-shoulder, knee-lenght gown with a fashionable belt on the waist highlighting her slightly chubby figure,her hair was let down in loose curls,her lively eyes sparkling giving her an innocent look.
Whispers filled the air"oh my she's so beautiful"
"she looks so innocent and lovely"
"even without make-up she looks charming"
The door of the changing room opened and estelle stepped out,she was wearing the same style of dress,but hers was black in color,her slender figure made her look cold and capable unlike lillian's innocent aura she exuded an aura of grace and danger.
"so beautiful"
"i wish i was like them"
Emily who was with yara heard the compliments and looked over,her eyes showed a hint of jealousy and malice,she glared at them and feigned a look of fear.
"wh..what's sister doing here"
Yara looked over and was stunned,she couldn't believe it...the ugly duckling had transformed into a swan,no there was no way she could allow it she walked up to them with the intention of stirring trouble.
Estelle and lillian saw her coming and frowned,what was she doing here.
"i want this dresses"
The crowd gasped,emily quickly feigned a look of distress"no you can't do that to cousin"
Estelle rolled her eyes completely ignoring her,she gestured to lillian to change back to their previous dresses,they emerged soon,and was suprised to see yara still standing there.
Estelle took out her card to pay but yara blocked her handing over her card to the receptionist.
"Swipe mine.."
Estelle was speechless,seeing the receptionist hesitating yara glared at her.
"Don't forget this mall is owned by the smith family"
Emily quickly pulled her away"don't do that you know cousin is agressive after all she is the only daughter of the evans family"
By saying this,she had reminded the crowd about her once arrogant personality constantly bullying people who were below her.
"no wonder she looked familiar,she is the ugly duckling of the evans family"
"i heard she almost killed her cousin just to get close to young master smith"
"hah people like her are so disgusting"
"she'll probably just leave the clothes for young miss smith,after all she loves young master smith a lot"
Watching the public opinion shift emily smiled inwardly,let's see how you handle this situation.
Lillian was about to defend her but she was pulled back by estelle,she stared at the receptionist with cold eyes.
"are you gonna swipe or not"
"ma'am i..."
The receptionist didn't want to lose her job so she cast a pleading glance at estelle.
She chuckled"your smith family is really poor at recieving customers,according to the rules of this mall...i should have the right to pay for this dress"
Yara's face changed,estelle glanced at her sharply"it seems your smith family mall isn't so great after all,how about i share some stories with the reporters saying the smith family mall doesn't value the rules"
Yara gritted her teeth,if estelle really released such news then their enemies would sieze the oportunity to slander them.
Emily sensing the situation tugged at her sleeve"let's go"
Yara gritted her teeth"you won't get away with this"....
