Luna pridefully followed Katie forward, only to be directed to a small, cramped seat in the far corner of the last row. Her expression instantly soured.
Clearing her throat, Katie apologized, "I'm sorry, but it's a full house today, so no extra seats are available."
With that, Katie strolled away. Women vying for better seats had become a regular occurrence, and there was simply no need to acknowledge them.
Luna's gaze lingered on the cramped corner seat, reflecting her frustration at the confined space. Despite her irritation, she composed herself and reluctantly settled into it.
Given all the effort she put into getting there, she wouldn't be so easily brought down by these petty taunts.
Once seated, she retrieved her phone and took numerous photos of the venue, intending to post them later to enhance her image on social media.
Luna couldn't help stealing a glance at Mia and Shelly, who were seated in the front row.
She knew that in the future, everything within the Barrett family would inevitably become Asher's possession.
When that day arrived, she vowed to settle the score for today's humiliation, ensuring that those who had looked down on her would learn a valuable lesson.
An hour later, the fashion show concluded.
While Mia found the show somewhat boring, Shelly was enthusiastic. "Monalize, did you spot any clothes or shoes you liked? I can help you reserve them. It's best to act fast before the others snatch them up."
"I didn't spot anything I fancied. You can reserve something for yourself. I'm off to the restroom," Mia replied nonchalantly, standing up and making her way to the restroom.
As Mia exited the stall, she noticed Luna emerging from the side. Raising an eyebrow, Mia remarked, "Ms. Maynard, I thought you had left."
"Why would I leave?" Luna retorted sharply.
