Chapter 86 Dumped Again
“Ms Johnson, you are so beautiful!” The makeup artist looked at the woman in the mirror and exclaimed sincerely. “I’ve been in the industry for so long, and you’re the most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen!”
The mirror showed a woman dressed in a white wedding dress. Her bright face had ample and exquisite makeup, and her skin was cool and pale. A touch of red on her lips was like a finishing touch, which made her instantly appear vivid and enchanting.
Annabelle twitched her hair on the side of her face and smiled slightly, “Thank you.”
“Wait!” The makeup artist looked aside and hurriedly over to get the lipstick from the makeup box. “I’ll touch up your lips!”
Then, the makeup artist applied another layer on Annabelle’s lips. In an instant, the redness on Annabelle’s lips became deeper and glossier.
“Ms. Johnson, red really suits you.” The makeup artist couldn’t help sighing again. In fact, when she first met Annabelle, she felt that Annabelle’s appearance was too pronounced and did not suit her aesthetics.
However, every time she put on Annabelle’s makeup, she felt something different. She felt a makeup artist’s heartfelt excitement and pride when looking at their work.
Just then, there came two knocks on the door. Two young women entered the room.
“Annabelle! Look who’s here!” Melinda Watson shouted with a smile.
Annabelle forgot the eyes in the mirror and instantly smiled. She turned around and walked over with the skirt in her hand. She hugged the person and said, “Didn’t you say you couldn’t come back?”
“I just want to surprise you! Even if I had to crawl, I would have come back for your wedding!” The girl who hugged Annabelle smiled wittily. “Honey, congratulations! You finally got what you wanted!”
Hugging Yvette Stille tightly, Annabelle took a deep breath. “Thank you, Yve.”
“Okay!” Yvette could not stand such a sensational scene. She took a picture of Annabelle and separated from her. She gave Annabelle a once over and said, “Sure enough, if Annabelle is said to be the second best in terms of appearance, no one would dare take first place.”
Annabelle smiled. “Come on now, it’s useless to flatter me. Where’s my wedding gift?”
“Don’t worry. I brought it!”
Since Annabelle’s hair and makeup were already done, the makeup artist led the staff to leave first, leaving time for the bride and her friends.
Annabelle spoke with them for a while. Then, the door of the dressing room rang again. The door was opened, and a middle-aged woman in a red dress and a bag appeared at the door.
When Annabelle saw the middle-aged woman, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, and she became cold.
“What are you doing here?”
The middle-aged woman came in and stared at Annabelle, “My daughter is getting married. Why shouldn’t I be here?”
The relaxed and happy atmosphere in the dressing room instantly became tense.
Melinda and Yvette looked at each other and then said to Annabelle, “Annabelle, you should have a chat first. We’ll be outside.”
The two of them left the dressing room and closed the door behind them.
Xenia Johnson glanced at the accessories on Annabelle’s body. Even if she knew nothing about them, it didn’t prevent her from knowing that they were all valuable and she could never hope to afford them. She tutted. “Annabelle, you’ve come so far. I know it’s useless to follow a mother like me…!
“Shut up!” Annabelle’s eyes were red. She pointed at the door and said, “Get out of here!” Staring at her, Xenia opened her bag, took out a box from it, and handed it to Annabelle. “Your father gave this to me when we got married. Although you don’t recognize me as your mother, I still consider you my daughter. I have nothing good to give you. Although this is not valuable, it is left by your father. It is a
memento for you.”
Annabelle stared at the box for a long time and finally accepted it. She opened the box and found a gold necklace inside. It was a very old design, and the chain was thin. It was not valuable at all.
However, Annabelle could guess that it was the best her father could get when he bought this necklace for Xenia. It was the best necklace he could get within his ability.
She covered the box and looked up at Xenia coldly. “You have no right to mention my father. Since you’ve given this to me, you can go now.”
Xenia looked at the hatred in Annabelle’s eyes and smiled faintly. “No matter how much you hate me, that won’t change the fact that we will always be mother and daughter. I gave birth to you. Without me, you would
not exist.”
After saying that, Xenia gave Annabelle the last look and left.
Annabelle looked at the box in her hand and couldn’t help but open it again. “Dad, I’m getting married today. Will you bless me?”
October 26th was merely an ordinary Wednesday to Yuliana.
She had three classes today, one in the morning and two in the afternoon.
However, she found it hard to concentrate that day. In the first class, she was in a trance and got distracted while talking. Later on, she didn’t even know what she had said. Looking at the young faces of the students in the classroom, everything gradually turned blurry.
At the end of the first class, Yuliana returned to her office and sat quietly for a while. The other teachers in the office were discussing the test on Monday. Yuliana only felt her ears buzzing, but she couldn’t hear what they were talking about at all.
Finally, at lunchtime, Yuliana and Fiona went to have lunch together. When she returned, she took a nap in her seat. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
In fact, she didn’t sleep well, and she had a dream when she was half asleep.
In her dream, she appeared at the scene of a wedding. Her surroundings were full of lights and flowers. The bride in a white gown and a man in a white suit spoke their vows and exchanged wedding rings. They then kissed each other with the blessings of all relatives and friends.
Annabelle knew she was dreaming, but she couldn’t wake up.
The phone on the table vibrated and pulled her out of the dream.
Yuliana was stunned for a moment. She picked up her phone and looked at it. It was Xandria.
Glancing at Fiona who was resting in the office, Annabelle took her phone and went to the corridor outside before picking up the call.
“Xani.”
As soon as she finished her words, Xandria on the other side of the phone said excitedly, “Yuliana, something major happened! Christopher dumped Annabelle again! On the day of their wedding!”
