Low–Level (2 updates)
“Hss-” Brandon Stone groaned lowly after being stepped on.
“Brother Brandon, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose!” Mina Bell quickly apologized, “My sister is here.”
“I saw her,” he said.
Brandon Stone didn’t even dare to look more.
Because, at that moment, she was too beautiful.
He had even thought these past few days that William Hale was probably just playing with her,
and might abandon her someday.
Then, he would still have a chance.
Now that he saw her, William Hale seemed to be taking good care of her.
Because now, she seemed to glow all over, confident and composed.
His gaze followed her unconsciously.

Kevin Bell and his wife saw that the focus of the entire
room had been stolen and were both anxious and
annoyed.
“Go over there quickly and bring that damn girl to the corner,” Kevin Bell whispered fiercely to his wife, “She really knows how to choose her moment. And dressing like that, she’s clearly trying to steal the spotlight on purpose!”
Vivi Lange walked through the crowd to Zoe Bell’s side, “Zoe, where have you been these days?”
“Do you really care?”
“What kind of question is that? I called you to come back a long time ago.”
Vivi Lange eyed her clothes, which were obviously expensive and seemed somewhat familiar, “Where did you get this dress?”
Zoe Bell didn’t respond, and Vivi Lange didn’t press further.
“Why don’t you go sit over there for a while, and after your sister finishes this dance, we can have a good
heart–to–heart talk.”

Zoe Bell didn’t say anything but just went and sat down
in the corner.
Her legs hurt, and indeed, she shouldn’t stand for too long.
Mina Bell saw that the spotlight had been stolen, especially when she saw the dress on her. She had seen this dress before. It was very picky about the body shape, and since it was from out of town, it needed to be air–shipped. Most crucially:
It was not for rent, not for loan.
Only to buy!
Where did Zoe get the money to buy such a dress?
Especially seeing that Brandon Stone’s gaze was wavering, but eventually, it settled on her. Mina Bell clenched her teeth in anger, “Brother Brandon, where do you think my sister has been lately?”
Brandon Stone’s expression was unreadable.
He knew, but he dared not say!
“That dress on her, I can’t even afford it. Where did

she get the money?”
“Say, she wouldn’t have gone off with some old man after running away from home, would she?”
“Who told you that?” Brandon Stone raised an eyebrow.
“I’m guessing! Otherwise, where did she get the
money? It must be fake; she’s out to deceive,” Mina Bell said innocently, “Do you think my sister would become
someone’s mistress…

Before she could finish, Brandon Stone suddenly let go of his hand that was wrapped around her waist.
Mina Bell was stunned, a peripheral glance around the room, “Brother Brandon, what are you doing? Keep dancing.”
So many people were watching!
Brandon Stone eyed her.
Originally, there was no dancing at the welcome party, but Mina Bell insisted on adding an opening dance. She couldn’t dance and had to learn specially. He wasn’t stupid; obviously, it was targeted at Zoe Bell.
She wanted to say:

It’s not only Zoe Bell who can dance!
But she was a beginner and danced poorly, having stepped on Brandon Stone’s feet several times already, and he had lost his patience long ago.
If it weren’t for…
He wouldn’t bother with Mina Bell at all!
“What? Can’t match her, so you discredit her?”
“I didn’t! I’m just stating the facts,” Mina Bell said innocently, “So tell me, where has she been lately?”
“Mina Bell, you really nauseate me!”
Having said this, he actually left her there and walked
away!
She caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye; her so–called stepbrother was also staring at Zoe Bell, which infuriated her to no end!
The surrounding crowd was taken aback. Fortunately, the music abruptly stopped, and Kevin Bell hurriedly stepped forward, announcing that the opening dance
had ended.
Kevin Bell invited the Fletcher Family onto the stage. A

passionate speech moved many, and Vivi Lange, holding Mina Bell, wiped tears, with photographers capturing the touching scene.
Zoe Bell sat on the side, her expression indifferent:
So hypocritical!
Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Bell took Mina Bell to meet
numerous guests.
About ten minutes later, Mina Bell, holding a wine glass and swaying her hips, approached her sister, “Sis, I’ve been so busy tonight, I’ve only just had a moment to greet you.”
Zoe Bell glanced at her and said nothing.
“Where did you get that dress?”
“You like it?”
“Just curious.”
“I’ve seen the dress you’re wearing.”
“Really? This was specially custom–made abroad by my mom.” Mina Bell said with pride, a small tiara on her head that truly made her look like a princess.
“Mina Bell, I really admire you. You can lie without

even blushing,” Zoe Bell said with a faint smile.
“Who’s lying!”
“That dress… is clearly my leftover,” Zoe Bell glanced at
Brandon Stone not far away, “even the man was
someone I didn’t want.”
“Zoe Bell!” Mina Bell hadn’t expected such a challenge
at this event and trembled with anger.
“I see you’re just jealous of me!“*
Zoe Bell smiled softly, her expression mocking and
disdainful.
Her phone vibrated, a call from William Hale.
The banquet hall was too noisy, and she stood up intending to answer the call, but unexpectedly, Mina Bell staggered and the red wine in her hand instantly spilled from the glass onto Zoe Bell’s skirt.
“Oh dear, sis, I’m really sorry, it wasn’t on purpose!” There wasn’t a trace of apology on Mina Bell’s face.
“You’ve always been so generous, you surely won’t
mind, right?”
“It’s such a pity for your beautiful dress.”

Zoe Bell looked down at her skirt.
This was…
