Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 680

Nichole was dressed in a floor-length mermaid gown that appeared stiff and cheap due to either its design or the rush in its making. The hem of the dress was awkwardly adorned with a dense array of faux diamonds, and Nichole's slender figure couldn't quite fill out the silk fabric of the dress. Her makeup was also indescribable, making the sight before everyone somewhat unbearable.

"What is she wearing? Who would use such fabric for a mermaid gown? It's quite laughable."

"I just came from the Costello family's engagement party next door, and Ms. Rowena is wearing a style identical to Mrs. Costello's. But the finished look... Tsk tsk."

"Can't she differentiate between beautiful and ugly? The Burke family must be so embarrassed now."

Listening to the merciless ridicule from the ladies around her, Bea felt dizzy, but Nichole seemed oblivious, perhaps because the wedding dress was worth a seven-figure sum!

Nichole had always admired the exaggerated and unique designs from international fashion shows. She insisted on having the designer's logo prominently displayed on her wedding dress to let everyone know it was a high-end custom piece.

She hadn't anticipated, however, that this move would attract sneers and disdain from the crowd.

Bea was so angry she nearly fainted. "Quick! Take that woman back! Does she not feel embarrassed at all?"

"Yes!"

Marian ran upstairs to stop Nichole, but Nichole was already walking down the stairs,

Mr. Briggs, who had just arrived, was initially beaming but soon noticed the strange looks directed at him.

Bea said through clenched teeth, "Mr. Briggs, such a fine daughter you've raised."

"Bea, it's a day of joy. What do you mean by that?"

Mr. Briggs frowned, and suddenly, a little girl pointed at Nichole and said, "Mommy, that lady's dress looks so weird."

The little girl's words pierced through the facade.

Nichole, still smiling, walked over

and gently patted the little girl on the head, confidently saying, "Oh, this? It's custom-made by a French designer. It was very expensive."

The little girl looked up and said innocently, "But the lady next door looks much prettier in her dress!"

That comment made Nichole's smile freeze.

Someone snickered, and when Nichole turned around, she indeed saw people hiding their laughter.

Given James' status, people were

cautious not to openly criticize the

dress. Embarrassed by her daughter's blunt honesty, the lady quickly took her daughter away apologizing to Nichole, "Ms. Rowena, I'm so sorry. My daughter is still young. Please don't mind her."

Then, the lady hurriedly left with her daughter, not daring to stay any longer.

Nichole's actions made many guests fear for their own

reputations, so they turned to net

leave

for the Costello's engagement party next door.

Bea's expression turned even uglier, and even Mr. Briggs felt embarrassed.

Wasn't today a grand occasion? Nichole just had to wear such an outfit and embarrass them!

Marian approached Nichole and said, "Ms. Rowena, let me take you to change into something else."

Realizing she had embarrassed herself, Nichole bit her lip and, with a flush of shame, lifted her dress to go upstairs.

Marian instructed the staff to find a dress for Nichole that wouldn't be more embarrassing than the current one.
