Way Back Into Love (Essie)

Zac didn't show up at the party with his father, because he had to go back to Essie's studio and pick up the Purple Love.

Hearing this, Albert frowned and looked at Mary. Something passed his eyes.

Mary didn't say anything. She was determined. She wouldn't buy her son more time to look for the Purple Love. It was a good opportunity to drive Essie away. She wouldn't miss it.

When Zac and Essie arrived at the door of the hotel, they happened to see Elizabeth and her daughter getting off the car.

With a traditional long dress and a pair of lace gloves, Essie looked noble and elegant. When Valery saw that, she was very jealous, pouting her lips. Then she fixed her eyes on Essie's gloves and said, "you even wore a pair of gloves. The gloves are just trying to cover up the truth."

"It won't be long before the show begins." Elizabeth just smiled coldly and shut her mouth immediately when she saw that Baron's car also driving in. Instead of coming with Elizabeth, Baron came here from the company with his daughter Alice. They happened to see each other downstairs.

"Why do you take her here? Don't you feel ashamed? "After getting off the car, Baron just let out a cold hum. He really hoped that he had never had such a shameless daughter like Valery.

"There are the only two families here today. As the half daughter-in-law of the Rong family, of course, she has to come. Besides, even in public, our daughter, Valery, can be here and she is still the victim. You should blame Zac " Elizabeth pouted and said with conviction.

"A daughter was like her mother, which is true." With an ironic smile on his face, Baron took Alice to walk away. He didn't want to be entangled with Elizabeth and her daughter anymore. He had given up the idea of protecting his daughter, because she had nothing like him at all.

Hearing his words, Elizabeth's face turned pale. It was not only scolding her daughter, but also mocking her. She had won the position of the hostess, but she also lost the respect of Baron.

At this moment, Vinton called and said, "I have an appointment and will not attend the party tonight."

"You unfilial son!" After hanging up the phone, Elizabeth cursed harshly. She was exasperated at the fact that her son failed to live up to her expectations. If Vinton could work harder, Alice would not be able to replace him as the vice CEO.

At the entrance of the hotel, after greeting to Elizabeth and her daughter, Essie and Zac walked towards Baron and Alice.

It was the second time for Baron to meet Essie, but Baron felt like he had known Essie for a long time.

He sighed, "Miss Essie really looks like Cathy. She's about the same age as Cathy."

Alice shrugged. An indescribable complicated look appeared on her face. "It's a pity that she isn't."

Baron didn't answer her, and his eyes grew dim. Yes, if Essie was Cathy, how could she change her name and don't even know him at all?

When he was lost in thought, Essie and Zac had come in front of them.

"Uncle Baron, nice to meet you again." Essie smiled politely and calmly.

"Hello, Miss Essie." An indescribable glimmer of light flashed across Baron's eyes.

"Essie, you deserve to be the hottest fashion designer in Dragon City. You will surprise everyone at all occasions." Alice quipped.

"Are you making fun of me, Alice? You're the most beautiful person in Dragon City. How can I resist you?" Essie said with a smile.

Hearing them talking and laughing, Baron's smile deepened and said, "Alice, it seems that you know Miss Essie very well."

Alice nodded and replied, "yes, dad. Friends in our business circle hold parties at intervals. I often meet Essie at parties, and we are good friends."

After hearing this, Baron smiled and said, "that's great to be young."

A smile played at the corners of Zac's mouth. "Uncle Baron, you are not old, either."

Waving his hand, Baron replied, "it's a different time. I don't know what you want to do."

They stopped in front of a box.

Albert and Mary had already arrived. Mary looked directly at Essie and asked when they were seated, "Zac, didn't you say that you would let Essie wear Purple Love today? Why didn't I see nothing except for a pair of gloves? "Mary said gloomily.

"Mommy, the gloves are just accessories for this evening dress." Said Essie.

"I'm not interested in your design. I'm just interested in the heirloom of our Rong family," Mary said slowly.

"What happened?" Albert interrupted her. He felt something was wrong when he heard his son mentioned Purple Love.

"It is rumored that Purple Love is lost. So I want to confirm it with Essie. Don't worry." Said Mary.

"Since it is a family matter, let's take about when we go back home." There was a trace of displeasure on his face. Mary had been behaving inappropriately lately.

Afraid that the topic wouldn't be continued, Valery hastily said, "aunt Mary, Purple Love was lost, how could she wear it on her finger?" Before Valery left home, she wore Purple Love on her own finger and took some photos of it.

Essie cast a meaningful glance at them and took off her left gloves slowly. The Purple pigeon egg on her ring finger immediately glowed in the light, which irritated many people.

"No way!" Valery screamed, which shocked everyone in the room.

"Valery, don't be rude." Baron said to Valery. But Valery just ignored his rebuke and glared at Essie in astonishment.

"Is there anything wrong? Miss Valery. " Essie asked with a slight smile.

"You... You've lost your Purple Love." Valery was stunned by what she just saw, and Elizabeth also couldn't understand why. How could Essie get the Purple Love back from her safe? Unless...

"Miss Essie, you lost your Purple Love, so you make a fake ring to fool us, do you?" Elizabeth asked intentionally, reminding Mary of the possibility.

Mary grabbed the hands of Essie and gazed at the ring on it. But only once had she seen Purple Love, she could not tell whether it was true or not with her eyes.

Essie turned to look at Baron and said, "Uncle Baron, your daughter really knows how to make a joke." She pursed her lips and changed her tone. "But we are very familiar with each other. We are Like sisters, so we always make jokes together."

Baron knew that she was giving him an out, so he winked at Valery and her mother to shut up. But Valery think it was a good opportunity to humiliate Essie. How could she miss it?

"Daddy, her ring is really fake. I went to her studio in the afternoon the day before yesterday. Her assistant told me that her ring was missing."

"Enough!" Baron scolded in a low voice.

"I'm not kidding. I'm telling the truth."

Upon hearing this, Baron flew into a rage. If Valery hadn't gotten pregnant, he would have slapped her in the face right now.

Essie had expected that. She still wore the polite smile on her face, which made her look tolerant and decent. She said, "Ms. Valery, I'm afraid that you're wrong. You came to my studio in the morning. My ring was still on the table at that time, and it wasn't lost. But soon after you left, I really found that the ring was gone. My assistant and I went out to report the case, but I wasn't in the studio in the afternoon. How did you know my ring was lost through my assistant?" Her words caused a huge uproar in the room.

"Although your assistant isn't here, the shop assistants downstairs are still watching the store, right? I asked them about that."

"So it is." Hearing that, Essie shrugged. She didn't argue with her anymore and sighed in a low voice, "The ring is not the real Purple Love. I really lost it."

Zac didn't say anything. He had finished his job to fool his mother. Now it was time to watch his wife's show.

Seeing that Albert didn't say anything, Mary kept silent herself. She didn't want to be blamed for this. After all, it was Essie who lost the heirloom of the Rong family, so Essie had to be punished.

A look of complacency showed on Valery's face, as she thought she had won. However, Elizabeth suddenly felt a little uneasy for she was a cunning fox. Just now, Essie's words had clearly pointed at her daughter. It seemed that Albert had treated her daughter as a thief when Elizabeth looked at him.

Just when she was about to defend her daughter, the door of the box opened and a man came in. He was Dean, the servant of the Xu family. "Miss, you have left the ring at home. Mrs. Vicki asked me to bring it to you as quickly as possible." He carefully held the ring in front of Valery. All the people present saw clearly that this ring was exactly the same as the one on Essie's finger.

"Isn't this my Purple Love? How could it be..." She paused on purpose. She had mentioned that the ring was lost shortly after Valery left. Now that it was in the hand of the servant of the Xu family, was it necessary to tell the truth?

Valery's face was as red as a tomato. She had put the ring in the safe box, but how the servant got it and brought it to her?

Elizabeth was as embarrassed as Valery. She felt humiliated. But she didn't show it on her face. With a calm look, she picked up the ring from the servant, and handed it to Essie. "You're wrong, Essie. This is not your Purple Love. It's a gift prepared by Valery for you. She asked the jewelry store to make it for you. I didn't expect that it is designed in the same style as Purple Love."

"Really?" Hearing that, Essie was a little surprised, but she didn't want to argue with them anymore. Instead, she took over the ring and said, "I'm sorry, Valery. It was my fault. This ring is very beautiful. Thank you very much. You're my best friend." Then she put it on the other hand.
