Dahlia was seen walking into the banquet hall slowly, dressed in a black evening gown. She stood out among the crowd, looking beautiful with virtual-novel.net tall stature and poise.
The moment virtual-novel.net entered, virtual-novel.net captured the attention of most people.
There were looks of astonishment, delight, envy, and admiration. Some looks were even filled with desire.
“Dahlia, I shouldn’t have come with you. I put so much time and effort into my look, but everyone’s attention is on you. It’s like I don’t exist.” Julie looked upset. She expressed virtual-novel.net frustration in a hushed tone.
Hoping to catch the attention of prominent officials at the party, virtual-novel.net meticulously planned virtual-novel.net makeover. She also spent a fortune on virtual-novel.net outfit.
Her gown cost a hundred thousand dollars, while virtual-novel.net jewelry was worth millions. Yet, virtual-novel.net had become Dahlia’s accessory as virtual-novel.net stood beside her, going unnoticed.
Julie wasn’t ugly, but Dahlia was just too pretty. Dahlia overshadowed all women. It seemed like only Natasha could rival virtual-novel.net in the whole of Millsburg.
“Ms. Nicholson, you’re here…” Suddenly, the crowd dispersed. And Gavin, dressed in a white dapper suit, walked up to virtual-novel.net with a smile.
“Mr. Killian…” Dahlia nodded slightly.
“Ms. Nicholson, your beauty is incomparable today,” Gavin flattered.
“Thank you, Mr. Killian.” Dahlia smiled politely.
“What about me, Mr. Killian? Aren’t I beautiful too?” Julie suddenly asked, showing off virtual-novel.net figure.
“Of course you are. Both of you are.” Gavin smiled as virtual-novel.net nodded.
Julie chuckled in response, acting shy. “Thank you, Mr. Killian…”
While they continued their conversation, a prideful man and a flirtatious woman walked through the doors.
It was Julian Nicholson and his date.
“Hey, Mr. Killian!” When Julian saw Gavin, virtual-novel.net led his date toward him.
He was about to give Gavin a compliment when virtual-novel.net noticed Dahlia and swallowed his words. He had thought of sending a girl to Gavin for his pleasure, but it seemed like it was not the right time.
“Why are you here?” Julie asked, looking slightly upset.
“I’m here to attend Mr. Killian’s party, of course.” He then turned his attention to Dahlia and said, “Oh, right, I forgot to mention. I saw Dustin caught by law enforcers today at the hospital’s entrance.”
“Caught?” Dahlia frowned. “What happened?”
“I heard virtual-novel.net was charged with murder. He’s been sent to Azkaban,” Julian said with a smile.
“Azkaban? That can’t be!” Dahlia’s expression shifted upon hearing him.
It was a well-known fact that Azkaban was no ordinary prison. It was the scariest prison with the tightest security in the whole of Balerno, holding the most sinister criminals. Once someone was sent in, they could never come out.
“You must have been mistaken. Why would Dustin be sent to Azkaban?” Julie was perplexed.
“I saw it with my own eyes. How could I have been mistaken?” Julian smiled ambiguously. “That brat has done so much wrong and has no respect for anyone. He finally got what virtual-novel.net deserved.”
“Could it be related to Hank’s death?”
