Looking at Elena who stood there as if her soul was crushed, excitement surged within Vivienne. If this wasn't a party, she would be laughing from ear to ear right now. Vivienne sneered. You dare to influence my daughter? This is what you get for it.
Nearly all prominent figures in the social circle were invited today. Elena stole Miss Reeves's watch and embarrassed herself in front of everybody, showing her bad character. Her reputation was ruined.
"What's going on, Miss Ashford?" John frowned slightly. Obviously, he didn't believe this. He trusted his father's judgment on people. Further… a strong and beautiful woman like her would never do that.
Before Elena could understand what had just happened, she was overwhelmed by the crowd's whispers.
"God, it really is her! No one expected that Miss Ashford would do such a thing. That's just shameful!"
"She doesn't look like a thief at all. Well, never judge a book by its cover."
