Eliana glanced at the outh Willow was holding
There was a noticeable milkshake stain near the shoulder, standing out starkly against the beige fabric. Light–colored clothing always made stains more obviou
This outfit looked strangely familiar
It was the latest Chanel weed skirt set, probably one of the pieces Lucy had passed on.
Every year. Lusy spent a considerable sum on clothes and accessories, As an elite member, she was invited to luxury brand annual events. Each season, new collections were sent to her home first so she could have the pick of the lot. Whatever she left behind would then be sent to the boutiques.
For the wealthy, luxury brands were practically a personal wardrobe. Some rich ladies like Lucy could even pre–order the limited–edition pieces ahead of everyone
compensate you, Eliana said softly.
Sharryl scoffed. “Didn’t I just make it clear enough? This is a limited edition, only five of these in the world. They’ve been sold out for ages. How exactly are you planning to compensate Willow!”
Charlene chimed in. “Exactly. Just pay her instead! But you’ll need to pay based on the current market price. This outfit’s resale value skyrocketed. It’s now five times the original price.
Stella rolled her eyes. “Why should Eliana pay the market price? Even if compensation is necessary, it should be for the amount Willow originally paid. “Designer clothing prices fluctuate like crazy. There’s always some seasonal hype. By your logic, if the price goes up, Elianrhas to pay more. and if it drops, does that mean Willow has to refund the differente?”
Charlene’s eyes widened as she retorted, her tone haughty. “Stella, you are such an…”
Before the argument could escalate, Willow interrupted then. I don’t want money. I just want another dress. Without it, how am I supposed to anend Natalia’s birthday party tomorrow! “Eliana, I know you’re upset about not being able to go. Don’t tell me you did this on purpose to stop
At her words, the atmosphere shifted.
What had seemed like an accidental spill suddenly felt calculated. Willow’s insinuation was clear Flisna had deliberately ruined her dress
‘Could it be that Eliana jealous over not being invited to Natalia’s party, intentionally dirtied Willow’s out everyone began to wonder
Charlene exchanged a glance with Sharryl, and realization damned on both of them. “Ah, I see now…” Charlene muttered.
The other classmates quickly latched onto Willow’s narrative.
“Eliana wasn’t invited. And now Willow’s dress is ruined. Could it really be that Eliana was jealous and did this on purpose? That’s so malicious!” one of them remarked.
Charlene gasped dramatically. “Oh my God. Eliana, you’re so scheming! You can’t go, so you’re trying to stop Willow from going? That’s shameless! I’ve never met anyone as calculating as you. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
Shaeryl nodded in agreement. “Right Everyone at school knows Natalia’s birthday party is the social event of the year for sonra University Only the most notable students are invited. Eliana parades around calling herself the university’s campus queen, but she didn’t even get an invite She must be seething with jealousy, constantly plotting behind the scenes. Well, today, she finally saw her chance, didn’t she?”
Willow had expected Eliana to panic and start frantically defending herself, but to her mild disappointment. Eliana remained calm and expressionless, showing no intention of explaining herself. A flicker of dissatisfaction crossed Willow’s mind.
The truth was, Willow just wanted to see a look of envy or awe in Elana’s eyes, something akin to what Willow had once felt toward Elsana during timetravel.
After all, being able to attend Natalia’s birthday party was a dream for the average student at Instead University. It was the kind of event that inspired both admiration and jealousy. Everyone envied those lucky enough to be invited.
Eliana had no interest in wasting her time arguing with them.
Hts clear to me that you’re all deeply insecure. Honestly, I’m curious. How insecure do you have to be to project such darkness onto others? Willow, you’re pathetic,” Eliana said calmly,
Willow froze in place as if struck by lightning.

Sharryl wrinkled her nose in distaste, pushing the bag away slightly, “Ugh, what kind of garlage is this??
