Chapter 342: Chapter 341 Chapter 342: Chapter 341 Kiera Olsen let out a cold sneer, but before she had a chance to speak, Mary Davis slammed the glass in her hand onto the table with a loud “bang p>
She turned to Mrs. Davis and said, “Keera and I have already agreed to be each other’s bridesmaids, Mom, if you don’t want her to be a bridesmaid, fine, then I won’t be the bride either p>
At these words, Mrs. Davis jumped in shock, “Mary, you… I didn’t mean that… I just thought that Keera might not want to be one anymore? After all, her status would be awkward among the bridesmaid group… What if it causes unpleasantness later on p>
She muttered, “I don’t mean anything else, isn’t this all for your own good? Besides, Mary, what you think is good for Keera, is it really good for her? You want her to stand with the daughters from the five great families to be your bridesmaid, do you think she will feel comfortable p>
When Mary heard this, she instinctively looked at Kiera Olsen.
Keera had been timid since she was a child, and when I had tried to pull her into the circle of the wealthy, she had refused, saying she wasn’t used to it.
Mary had then understood, there was no need to forcefully integrate someone who didn’t belong to the same circle.
Even less need to let Keera bend over backward to please someone…
So even though Mrs. Davis’s words had ill-intent, Mary still started to worry.
The next moment, she heard Keera say indifferently, “Auntie, you’re overthinking it, being Mary’s bridesmaid, how could I be uncomfortable p>
These words immediately made Mary burst into laughter.
Seeing her so dismissive, Mrs. Davis also forced an awkward smile, “Alright then, I was just worried about you, as long as it’s okay. But if the daughters of the direct lineage give you a hard time later, remember to bear with it, after all, it’s Mary’s wedding, let’s not stir up trouble p>
Kiera Olsen answered with a cheerful smile, “Okay p>
Displeased, Mrs. Davis turned and left.
Once out the door, Mr. Davis saw her and asked, “How did it go p>
Mrs. Davis let out a sneer, “Such a petty mentality! I just think she wants to use the position of bridesmaid to network with more people! And Mary is actually siding with her p>
Mr. Davis frowned, “Isn’t she being a bit too presumptuous? To be with so many people of higher status, isn’t she afraid of not being able to cope p>
Mrs. Davis snorted, “I’ve warned her, but your precious daughter won’t listen, guarding her closely p>
Mr. Davis sighed, “Well, let it be then, if she wants to go, she can go! Just hope she doesn’t cause any trouble and embarrass us p>
The two spoke and left.
Time quickly arrived at the day of Mary Davis and Ellis Olsen’s wedding.
Kiera Olsen had stayed overnight at the Davis residence, sharing a bed with Mary, and after talking late into the night, they had gone to sleep. By five in the morning, both Mary and Kiera Olsen were woken to get ready for their makeup.
After washing up, Kiera Olsen stepped out.
She saw a famous domestic makeup team enter the Davis home, and at that moment, the whole Davis villa came alive, with servants bustling about.
The security guards also opened the large gates, with bridesmaids from other families coming over early.
At the window, she saw Victoria Olsen get out of the car and was escorted upstairs by the family servants.
Then, the bridesmaids arrived one after another.
Kiera Olsen spotted Rebecca Allen at first glance, personally delivered by Frankie Allen. Rebecca’s frail body staggered when she stepped out of the car, almost falling down.
Outside the door,
Mary was already dressed in her gown, called by the makeup artists to the room next door to start her makeup. Before leaving, she said to the chief makeup artist, “A few people haven’t arrived yet. Have your team start with my friend Keera’s makeup first p>
“Of course, Miss Allen p>
A makeup team certainly would have more than one artist; today, seven or eight came all at once.
With six bridesmaids and one bride, there were enough for one per person, and no one would disturb another.
Therefore, Mary didn’t think much of it, reminding Kiera Olsen to get her makeup done, and went to the next room with the makeup artist.
The bride’s makeup is, of course, the focal point of the day and was expected to take two and a half hours.
After they left, a makeup artist came up to Keira Olsen, “Miss South, right? I’ll do your makeup p>
“Okay p>
Keira followed her to another reception room.
Before long, Victoria Olsen arrived and, upon seeing Keira, immediately sneered.
The unmarried daughters from the main branch of the Davis Family also arrived. They gathered in a circle, greeting each other, and then someone glanced at Keira and whispered:
“What does Mary Davis mean by this? We’re becoming bridesmaids to elevate the status of her side branch, and now she’s chosen a bridesmaid with such a status to humiliate us p>
Victoria feigned innocence with a sly smile, “I heard that CEO South and Miss Mary are quite close p>
“Close? I see her as a manipulative woman, who has completely confused Mary. Didn’t Mary recently invest in a project for her sake? Mary nearly got herself in trouble and hasn’t come to her senses yet p>
“I really don’t know what charm this woman has utilized to bewitch Mary to such an extent that she’d make such a foolish move p>
While they were chatting, Rebecca Allen appeared at the entrance.
As soon as she showed up, everyone immediately turned to look at her, flocking around her:
“Rebecca, you’re here p>
“How are you feeling p>
“Can you hold up today? If you feel unwell, let us know earlier p>
Who didn’t know that Frankie Allen was overprotective of his sister and that Rebecca was pampered within the Allen Family?
The Davis Family had no shortage of daughters, so they were all treated indifferently.
Although Victoria Olsen was the daughter of the Olsen Family, her status was naturally lower because she was adopted.
Moreover, since Frankie Allen was unmarried, Rebecca immediately became the center of attention when she arrived.
Rebecca used to dislike social engagements, and she still does.
She nodded, planning to find a place to sit quietly by herself, but then she caught sight of a familiar figure and stopped dead in her tracks.
“Keera? What are you doing here?!” she shrieked.
Keira Olsen frowned at that moment.
She pursed her lips slightly and let out a soft sigh, looking at her: “Miss Allen p>
But Rebecca’s eyes instantly reddened, staring at her fixedly.
Why does this woman always linger around like a bad spirit?
Was she determined to steal away the attention everyone was giving to the benefactor?
No!
She would never allow it p>
The others sensed something was amiss and immediately said:
“Miss Allen must feel that being a bridesmaid with her is beneath her status p>
“Indeed, some people should really be aware of their own status. Are they fit to be with us p>
“Miss South, given Miss Allen’s disapproval of you, perhaps you should leave first p>
Keira Olsen, hearing these comments, raised her eyebrows and sat steadily.
Tina Davis, the legitimate daughter of the premier branch of the Davis Family, approached Keira and said, “Miss South, as you can see, you’re unwelcome here, so perhaps it would be best if you left p>
