She figured she needed to find a chance to warn Amelia not to run her mouth in front of Mrs. Rhodes.

Just then, Amelia stepped out of the fitting room.

The pale blue dress made her skin glow and gave her this effortless elegance.

Lancey’s face lit up as she raved, “Oh my God, stunning! Ana, that dress is absolutely perfect on you!”

Amelia smiled and did a little twirl. “I’m obsessed with it too. You have incredible taste.”

ancey nodded enthusiastically and called to the sales associate, “We’re definitely taking this one. Can you wrap it up for us?”

tegan stood there watching Amelia and Lancey’s easy chemistry, feeling seriously bitter about the whole thing.

‘aleria was also gawking. She didn’t know who Lancey was, but seeing how deferential Megan was being, this woman obviously had major clout.

Irs. Rhodes!

ould this possibly be the Rhodes family–like, the wealthiest dynasty in New York?

hat thought made Valeria stare at Amelia with complete bewilderment.

tegan was pissed that Amelia was acting like she didn’t exist–not even a polite nod.

he was still technically family, damn it!

he whole situation was making Megan’s blood pressure spike.

aleria, always good at reading a room, saw Megan getting worked up and quickly brought over some tea. “Mrs. Hale, we’ve been walking around for hours.

ou must be beat–here, sit down and have some tea.”

egan immediately perked up and said loudly, “Now that’s what I call thoughtful! Valeria’s not just gorgeous, she actually cares about people. Jasper hit the

incey wasn’t about to let anyone talk shit about Amelia.

irs. Hale, and this sweet girl is…?” Lancey asked, nodding toward Valeria.

egan practically glowed with pride. “This is my son’s girlfriend. Isn’t she just wonderful?”

h, absolutely. Just like our Ana–she’s thoughtful, beautiful, incredibly talented, and spoils me rotten. She’s more considerate than my own son half the time. ‘e’re both really lucky.” Lancey’s tone was warm but clearly making a point.

egan’s smile faltered for a second before she forced out, “Ha, yeah, totally.”

incey had zero interest in continuing this conversation–clearly they had nothing in common.

Amelia’s smile turned sharp. “We’ll see about that.”

Yeah, they’d definitely see who ended up miserable once they figured out Valeria’s true colors.

A few minutes later, Lancey emerged from the fitting room looking absolutely radiant. She was clearly in love with Amelia’s picks–they were exactly her

aesthetic.

The soft jade silk dress with delicate embroidered details was breathtaking–sophisticated and timeless.

Lancey looked like royalty in it.

The contrast was absolutely brutal. Megan had been completely shown up.
