Chapter 4

"And I've never seen you wear it before. Could it be that a country bumpkin like you has never seen such expensive clothes and you're selling them?"

I couldn't help but sneer:

"It's the kind of cheap stuff that I'm too lazy to wear."

If he hadn't mentioned the Haute Couture gown, I would have almost forgotten about it.

I asked the brand I was working with for a Haute Couture gown that was both tacky in color and rubbish in style, and they gave it to me just to save face. I didn't even bother to look at it and gave it directly to the nanny.

But they obviously didn't believe this statement.

"Cheap stuff? I said Scarlett doesn't know the quality of the product. It's a foreign designer brand, limited edition. You can't buy it in China even if you have connections!"

"A woman who has never seen the world is not afraid of being laughed at."

Some people even mocked me with malicious intent:

"She never tells the truth. Damien, it's a good thing you two haven't gotten married yet. You might as well cancel the engagement right away. It's better not to have a woman like her."

"Even if I marry her in the future, who knows how vain and capable she will be. In the upper class we still have to find someone of equal status when we get married."

Damien looked at me with contempt, with a look of superiority on his face.

"Scarlett, we brothers are playing with you today to give you face, don't be ungrateful."

"There are so many girls lining up to marry me. If it weren't for Harrison, how could I even look at you?"

I couldn't help but laugh, and calmly took out a text message on my phone to show them.

"You Harrison should be Harrison, right?"

"If he hadn't begged me to agree to this marriage and give your Blackwood Group some face, do you think I would have noticed someone like you?"

"Since we are tired of each other now, why don't we just stop talking nonsense, settle the bill and leave."

Damien's expression suddenly changed. He snatched the phone, looked at the message on it, and blurted out:

"That's impossible. Your text message is fake."

"You have no idea what position I, Harrison, hold in Harbor City. He is Mr. Laurent Dubois III's assistant. Everyone in the upper class has to be courteous to me. He is Mr. Laurent Dubois III's favorite. Do you know who Mr. Laurent Dubois III is?"

I sneered.

How could I not know my dad?

The people around him immediately started to compliment him enthusiastically.

"That's the famous Mr. Laurent Dubois III, a top-tier wealthy family. The entire Harbor City depends on him."

"Damien, I didn't expect you to have such a relationship. That's amazing. You must support us in the future!"

Some people stared at me coldly:

"Scarlett, don't be so ungrateful. You want to go against Damien. Do you think you can get any benefit?"

"We Damien accepted those cheap things you gave us before just to give you face. But you actually did something so shameless and want to take them back. Can you please have some shame?"

Cheap stuff?

I couldn't help but sneer. Any one of those things would be worth as much as their monthly income.

After I agreed to a dynastic marriage arrangement.

My parents were very concerned about this marriage, so they helped to select and check everything, fearing that I would neglect Damien.

But he thought the item I gave him was fake.

Damien smiled contemptuously and said:

"Scarlett, stop pretending to be rich. How can someone like you come up with so much money? Why would you rack your brains to marry into a wealthy family?"

But I was too lazy to pay attention to him and stood up lazily.

"Then go back and take a good look to see if those things are genuine."

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I will contact the police to collect evidence. Since we can't resolve it privately, we will go through legal procedures."
