The changing room on the second floor was in utter disarray, with guests from the floor below inevitably craning their necks to catch a glimpse of themotion. "What''s going on?"


    "I heard Miss Rowena and a maid got into a fight!"


    "How could Rowena engage in such unbing behavior?"


    "Tsk tsk, the Freeman family''s newly found daughter really can''t shake off her vulgar,moner roots."


    As the crowd buzzed with spection, Mr. Briggs''s face darkened.


    Sensing a story, the media quickly turned on their cameras, capturing the unfolding drama.


    It appeared to the onlookers that Nichole was dragging Marian out of the second-floor changing room, although it looked more like Nichole was clutching at Marian''s hair, disregarding her image as she stormed


    out.


    The cameramen''s shutters clicked rapidly, and Nichole''s fierce expression was immediately broadcasted online.


    Meanwhile, headlines like "The Freeman Family''s Engagement Party Scandal: Burke International''s Future Bride Caught in a Catfight with Maid" surged to the top of trending news.


    "I just came from the Freeman family''s wedding next door, and it was a disaster."


    "How could it have turned out this way? The Freeman family''s engagement party is ruined."


    On the Costello family''s side, guests were shaking their heads as they stared at their phones.

Sophie was in the middle of a toast when Jenna handed her the phone, barely containing herughter. "Look at this. I''m dying ofughter!"


    Sophie couldn''t help butugh as well at the dress.


    Jenna added, "I really didn''t expect the dress to turn out like this! Nichole looks like a white trumpet flower wearing it, and those dense diamonds are enough to deter anyone with a fear of clusters."


    Within half an hour, countless memes of Nichole in the dress had been created.


    Thement section was filled with savagery.

    "By the way, has anyone seen James?"


    Jenna scrolled through the live


    photos from the engagement party, noting the absence of James amidst the photos of Nichole and Marian''s brawl. .


    Sophie, puzzled, took the phone to look for herself. "Maybe he hasn''t arrived yet?"


    "That can''t be. It''s his engagement party. How could he let Nichole make an appearance alone?"


    Having an engagement party with Nichole was James'' idea. On such a significant day, it was unimaginable for James not to be there.


    Sophie paused in thought before saying, "Let''s not worry about them."
