My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 23

Adina lifted the skirt a bit, and the champagne rolled off the gown.

Not a single stain could be found on the dark green dress.

“There are so many people who are jealous of me, so I could only use brocade for my dress. That way, no wine could possibly stain it.” Adina smirked. “But you couldn’t possibly be jealous of me. It was just a careless mistake, wasn’t it?”

Sophia was furious.

‘What’s this stupid dress?! Why won’t alcohol seep through it?!’

“If you want to cause a ruckus, you should just go back to the Gardner family, Sophia.”

Ethan was also in the dressing room, and he had seen the whole thing with his own eyes. Besides, anyone with brains could tell that Sophia had spilled her champagne intentionally.

He simply could not understand why his sister would do something so stupid.

Unlike him, Sophia could not understand why her own brother would protect an outsider.

She wanted to throw a tantrum, but there were other people in the room, so she could only suppress her anger with all her might.

Adina turned to the mirror and put on lipstick, which made her even more beautiful.

Then, she moved to stand beside her cousin. “Let’s go, Ethan.”

He nodded, and they went outside shoulder-to-shoulder.

The guests had already arrived, and since they had come to the Xavier family’s mansion’s banquet, they were dressed to the nines. It was very lively inside.

Everyone was trying to figure out why the Xavier family had decided to hold a banquet.

Suddenly, they heard a commotion at the entrance. They looked over and were shocked.

“My god, why are the people from the Winters family here as well?”

“What on earth does the Xavier family want to do? Why is Duke Winters here as well?”
