“Oh my! Celia, are you okay?”
“Celia, alright?”
are you
“Celia, quick, here’s a towel to clean up.”
Everyone wanted to help Celia.
Everyone was concerned about Celia, completely forgetting about Elizabeth, who had also been soaked in the drink.
Nestled in Samuel’s arms, Celia looked down and spoke softly. “I’m fine. Thank you all for your concern.”
“Are you sure you’re okay? Your hair is a bit wet.” Samuel frowned, and his expression was stern.
-I’m
fine.” Celia glanced at Elizabeth on the ground. “It’s not Liz’s fault. I was careless.”
Only Tomas saw Elizabeth fall to the ground. Ignoring his sons‘ protests, he wanted to rush to Elizabeth and help her up, but his efforts were slowed by his anxiety.
Elizabeth disregarded the pain from her fall. She was on the ground, frantically looking for her lost sunglasses
Celia knew better than anyone else about Elizabeth’s appearance. Few people in Los Angeles knew what Elizabeth looked like, and the rumors about her were terribly damaging. Today was the perfect opportunity for Celia to –embarrass Elizabeth in public, letting everyone know that Elizabeth was the real “ugly girl.”
Rumors could be lethal in these days, and this tactic was akin to an invisible killer!
Someone had intentionally pushed Elizabeth, probably premeditated.
Right now, Elizabeth was just trying to figure out what happened. Her biggest concern was that she couldn’t find her sunglasses. All she could see around her were various expensive high heels!
Once Celia reminded everyone of Elizabeth, they finally remembered Elizabeth.

Just then, Elizabeth spotted her sunglasses, within reach. She was about to grab them when she heard a crunch saw her sunglasses under someone’s foot.
Following the line of sight upwards, Elizabeth saw Celia’s smug face.
Celia had intentionally crushed the sunglasses.
Elizabeth’s hand tightened into a fist on the ground. Ignoring everything else, she was about to get up Celia a lesson when Celia crouched down and apologized, “I’m so sorry, Liz. I didn’t mean to,”

After apologizing, Celia extended her hand to help Elizabeth up, eager to expose Elizabeth’s true appearance to the
crowd.

However, when Elizabeth finally got up, Celia looked as if she had seen a ghost.
By the time Celia figured out what to do, it was too late. Everyone present had seen Elizabeth’s face, and they were
all stunned.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Everyone stared at Elizabeth in disbelief.
Was this really the infamous “ugly girl” Elizabeth?
Elizabeth had an excessively gorgeous face. Her hair, dampened by the spilled drink, clung to her delicate face. Her eyebrows were like artwork, her lips naturally red, her skin fair and rosy. Especially her eyes, sparkling with intelligence. She was a vision of grace and elegance!
Elizabeth was too beautiful!
“Elizabeth, is this really you?” someone asked in disbelief.
Samuel narrowed his eyes and wondered whether Elizabeth would risk her own life for a prettier look.
Soon he found it impossible.
Somehow, Samuel was eager to know how she made it.
All the people present turned from muttering to heaving praise on Elizabeth, staring at dazzling Elizabeth in disbelief.
“Is this really Elizabeth?”
“The rumors are false. Obviously, she is a vision and has nothing to do with being ugly.”
“Sure enough, you can’t trust the rumors.”
“It’s lucky to be here today. Look at this photo, she is a looker. She’s as attractive as those popular stars.”
“Yeah, I mean, in terms of appearance, none of the stars I have seen before beat her. Oh my, she’s so perfect that I can’t pick out the slightest flaw from her!”
Someone even took a picture of Elizabeth with a mobile phone.
“I think she is prettier than Celia, the hit star.”
“I feel the same way!!!
Though a hit star, Celia was not pleased with the public’s reaction and burned with anger, but she had nowhere to vent her irritation.
She didn’t expect it to backfire..
Never did she expect that the birthmark on Elizabeth’s face would disappear after four years, and Elizabeth would become a gorgeous woman, stealing the thunder from her,

Celia held a breath in her chest. That all the men present were stunned by Elizabeth and were reluctant to tear their eyes off Elizabeth, got her goat. What drove her to become a green–eyed monster was that she noticed Samuel fixed his gaze on Elizabeth as well.
“Sam, I, I’m not feeling well. Could you help me to rest?”
While Elizabeth was in the limelight, she looked a bit embarrassed at the moment. She was wise enough to want to get out of here to be free from competition.
Most importantly, she couldn’t let Samuel continue to focus on Elizabeth.
Samuel didn’t stare at Elizabeth for a long time. Although Elizabeth became more enchanting, he still had a grudge against her.
“Celia, are you okay?” Samuel asked softly.
“Fine, I just get a little tired.”
“Alright, I’ll take you back”
Elizabeth never showed any wish to show off and it was Cella who forced her to uncover herself to the public.
As soon as Celia left, several men came up to ask Elizabeth to dance together, but they were interrupted by Grandpa Tomas who came over. “Excuse me, gentlemen, I would like to solicit a private audience with Liz Enjoy yourself,
folks.”
