Matthew came to pick me up just after one in the afternoon on the day of the birthday banquet. He stood tall and handsome outside my apartment, saying he would take me to get styled. He handed me a long, rectangular, flat box from the back seat and urged me to open it. "This is a dress I had custom-made for you. See if you like it. If not, we still have time to buy another one.""Can't I wear my own clothes? Do I have to change into a formal dress?"Upon opening the box, I saw a pure black dress with a hint of silvery pearl luster. The knee-length dress combined conservatism with liveliness in its design. The material and style matched perfectly, making it beautiful and valuable.I didn't care for luxury goods and wasn't well-versed in them. But I could tell the value of the dress was significant, just from Matthew saying it was custom-made. It couldn't be less than 30 or 40 grand.His actions made me a bit uncomfortable.He kept saying he just wanted me to go as his companion,

Matthew sat on the couch closest to me. He stared at me without blinking. A gentle smile graced his face. His dark eyes were brimming with anticipation.His smile brought back memories of Matthew in high school.We were both 17 or 18 back then, full of youth and carefreeness. Our days were filled with heavy coursework. It was hard to find time to play.He always tried hard to follow behind me during the physically demanding laps in physical education class. Whenever I looked back, his beaming face was always there.Back then, he was chubby. One lap would be enough to cover his forehead in sweat and leave him heavily panting. No matter how tired, he persisted in running behind me.I was naive, always puzzled about why he insisted on following me despite barely keeping up.I understood later, but we had gone our separate ways by then.Watching him sit in the sunlight with a silly smile, memories of our youth halted the refusal on my lips. I found myself unable to speak.My indeci

Samantha whispered in my ear, her breath tickling me. "Luna, I'll tell you a secret. My cousin is a very straightforward man. This is the first time he's brought a girl we don't know to a formal occasion. I really like you. Go for it. I'm looking forward to you becoming my sister-in-law."I looked at Samantha in surprise. She nodded vigorously, confirming everything she said was true.Matthew was in a good mood. He shooed Samantha away. He stared at my flushed face and whispered, "Luna, you have no idea how adorable you look when you blush. It's like you have two red apples on your cheeks. I really want to take a bite.""Stop talking nonsense. I'm not gonna listen to you anymore." His words were tinged with inexplicable affection, which made me even more embarrassed.He watched my cheeks redden further. His laughter was muffled, making his steps lighter."Dad, Mom, I'm back." Matthew brought me to the living room with a smile.Several socialites and ladies on the couch smiled i

Before I could finish talking, a sudden noise from the corner of the living room attracted everyone's attention.A middle-aged woman was helping a lady with a long dress up. "Be careful. Are you hurt?"Matthew glanced over at me and changed the topic. "Helly fell down. Lulu, we should go and take a look."Without saying anything else, he took my hand and led me over. He stood beside the middle-aged woman and kept a distance of two steps away from Helen. It was quite a gentlemanly move.When his mother saw us holding hands, a look of disgust appeared on her meticulously made-up face.The rising annoyance in my heart made me want to throw something at her annoying face."Helly, is it serious? We have a family doctor." Matthew bent down slightly. His concern was expressed with impeccable manners, showing the etiquette that a host should have."Matthew, take Helly to the backyard for a check-up. Be careful with her," Matthew's mother came over and ordered Matthew while looking at He

"Who doesn't know how smart is Helly? You're lucky to have such an intelligent and caring daughter. I'm not as lucky." Matthew's mother took over the conversation and engaged in small talk with the upper-class women.I wondered if it was really that impressive to study at Jesselton College. Their children were just among tens of thousands of students in that college. There was nothing to boast about.I was uncertain if they were doing it intentionally. They left me out and only talked about topics that interested them. They pretended I didn't exist.Being ignored like this, I felt like this was the same as being humiliated.Although I wasn't a daughter from a prestigious family, I was still cherished by my parents. I didn't depend on anyone and relied on my efforts to study and earn money. Thus, I wouldn't tolerate any disrespect from anyone. Plus, I only came here because Matthew had begged me to.I didn't envy these people's social standing or money. Thus, I didn't want to but

I raised my eyebrows without a word.She had casually labeled me as petty and aloof through that."Mom, it's nothing like that. Don't talk nonsense," Matthew said in a low voice while gripping my shoulder.Brenda glared at Matthew before saying with a smile, "What are you embarrassed about? Who doesn't know about this? You can't ignore Helly just because you have someone you like. Let me remind you that Helly is my goddaughter. "No matter who you marry in the future, she'll still be your responsibility. Thus, you're not allowed to neglect her at any time."The other women praised Brenda for remembering old friendships and being broad-minded, especially Helen's mother. She looked satisfied given how big her smile was.Helen was a decent woman, but her mother lacked the dignity a woman from a prestigious family should have. She was too narrow-minded and lacked grandeur.As slow as I was, I understood what was happening right now.Brenda was telling me that the daughter-in-law sh

To be honest, I could have better career prospects if I directly pursued a PhD after my undergraduate studies at Lincoln University. However, I wanted to be closer to my parents.Jesselton College was just my backup option. I didn't think studying there was anything to boast about either. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given up Jesselton College and chosen Lincoln University for my undergraduate studies back then.I didn't expect that studying at Jesselton College would make these wealthy mothers so proud.Perhaps in these socialites' minds, Jesselton College should only be reserved for the children of high-ranking officials or the wealthy elite. At least, someone as normal as me shouldn't be studying there.It seemed that they had been looking down at me from the start. Perhaps in their hearts, I had seduced Matthew with my looks. They didn't think I was as talented as their daughters. I didn't deserve to study at Jesselton College, let alone date Matthew.Well, excellence and social

I took out my phone and opened my bank account, patiently waiting for Matthew to tell me the price."I gifted you the dress, so I don't want you to pay me back. Mom, everyone, Lulu is the best woman in this world. She isn't materialistic at all. She doesn't care how much money I have, and I can't even dream of trying to win her heart using gifts."It took me days to convince her to wear this dress. You guys are just insulting her by saying that. I'm very unhappy about this."Matthew could barely keep the smile on his face. His expression was stiff, and he was trying to suppress his anger. His etiquette prevented him from driving people away, but he sent warning gazes to everyone in the room."Matthew, we watched you grow up. We're just worried that you'll be deceived. Young ladies nowadays seem innocent, but all of them are secretly scheming. You need to protect yourself, especially since your family is a prestigious one." This woman's behavior was absolutely disgusting. I wonder
