The evening party held on the villa lawn was lively. Due to Madison's ill-fitting dress, many socialites who were gathered together quickly found a common topic to talk about.
As the birthday party gradually heated up as many socialized together, some were eager to have Sally cut the cake and make a wish.
Sally walked up to Leo. She said, "Leo, come with me to cut the cake."
Leo glanced at his wristwatch. His face was gloomy. "I'll go find Madison. You go ahead and cut the cake with Ramona," he told her.
Unexpectedly, the first person to think of Madison was Leo. A hint of malice flashed across Sally's face.
Sally had initially planned to address the issue after cutting the cake, but considering the timing, her plan should be in full swing now. It was perfect timing to bring people there.
Sally smiled. "I almost forgot that my sister has returned from abroad. Let's go together. I don't know if she's upset because of the dress. I'll go with you to explain to her."
Leo originally wanted to decline Sally but nodded after hearing her. He took long strides toward the villa.
Sally watched Leo depart. Her smile instantly vanished from her face. She now wore a resentful expression.
She turned and glanced at her few close friends behind her. She signaled to them and then followed Leo.
They began calling one another. A huge crowd began to follow after Sally and Leo.
Everyone soon reached the door of the room on the second floor.
The moment the door opened, everyone involuntarily gasped and simultaneously looked at Leo.
The floor of the room was strewn with disorderly clothes. There were men's jackets, pants, and shirts. Madison's ill-fitting evening gown hung untidily on a partition, conveniently blocking the view inside.
The sight of this mess on the ground alone was impactful enough, not to mention the sounds emanating from inside at that moment.
"Oh yes! You're great! Yes! That's it!"
