A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 200 The Blind Date Event (Part Two)

"All right. It's not a big deal. You need to fix this and figure out a better plan as soon as you can."

"Mommy, as the hostess of the Rong family, don't you think that it is your obligation to teach these frivolous people a lesson?" Zac snorted.

"I have my own discretion," said Mary indifferently.

Zac was aware that his mother was willing to cover up for someone. A flash of cruelty was seen from his face from indignation and he decided to warn her. "Mommy, my patience is limited. You better warn those rascals that they shouldn't mess with me or my wife. If they challenge my patience again, I will remember all of them and make them pay for their abuse all together."

Mary's mouth twitched. She tried to compensate and said, "I will look into it. Perhaps someone just wanted to play a trick." When they parted ways, she had to go over to Sage and reminded her not to do such a childish thing again.

Moments later, Tiffany called back to say that she had booked the Sumptuous Banquet Hall at the Pleasure Sea View Hotel.

Since Zac didn't want to argue with his mother anymore, he came with Essie to the venue to help set up.

Essie had originally planned to create an extravagant design for the venue. However, since it was too late, they had to settle with the second option and found a way to decorate it into a royal court style.

When the afternoon came, Mr. Wang had sent the revised invitations to her and Essie had asked one of the servants to receive and send over the invitation immediately to her so that it wouldn't get to Valery.

After receiving the invitation, Ivy's classmate immediately called her to ask about the conditions of the ball. When she found out that the ball was held to select the future wife for the eldest son of the Rong family, she was instantly ecstatic. After that, the message had spread from ten girls to one hundred, and everyone in the high class societies was in shock.

All the young ladies and debutantes were caught in the frenzy from excitement. Even if Walt was not the future young master of the Rong family, he was still the eldest grandson. It would still be a great honor to be married to a man like Walt. It would be an extraordinary privilege to gain the support of any member of the Rong family. Their support was like a giant tree that you could live under, so that you could enjoy the breeze from under the tree for the rest of your life.

When the day of the ball had arrived, Walt wore the tailor made tuxedo that Essie made for him. It seemed that he had the foresight as he had just asked her to make one for him to get close with her, and now it actually came into good use.

Essie, on the other hand, wore a beautiful vintage dress, which was one of her latest designs for her Epiphyllum collection. She wore it to the ball as an advertisement for her newer products.

When she came down the stairs, to Walt, it seemed like time froze for a second and his eyes were deeply gazed on the beautiful woman.

She looked just like a fairy coming out of the flowering shrubs, striking the young man's attention.

However, unfortunately for Walt, the man she walked towards was not him, but his brother.

"Honey, you're going to shock everyone tonight with that beautiful dress." As he held her slender waist, Zac looked into her eyes with tender love and support.

"Stop being such an ass kisser," grumbled Essie with sharp eyes. She continued, "I haven't even applied any make-up on. With a bare face, I'm nothing more than ordinary." Since she was not the main

star for the night, she couldn't steal the spotlight away from her future sister-in-law.

"You definitely don't need any make-up." An adoring smile appeared on Zac's face. The rouge and other cosmetics were completely unnecessary for Essie to catch the attention of people. Her pretty face did not need any artificial products.

Watching them, Valery's eyes turned green from envy. Mary noticed this and asked both Valery and Essie to accompany Zac for the night, but Zac brutally refused. He only wanted Essie to stay beside him, especially tonight.

Valery couldn't not for the life of her, understand why the mother of his own child could not stand beside him. In her opinion, she was more than qualified than the little bitch he adored so much.

Observing the way Walt looked at Essie, a slight tinge of discomfort came across Mary's body. It seemed to her that Essie was dressing like a slut to seduce both her sons.

"Essie, do you know how to play the piano?" asked Mary lightly, as if it were just a casual question.

However, Essie had no clue what she was pertaining to, so she simply replied modestly. "I learned a little bit when I was younger," she said.

'A little?' Mary sneered in her mind. 'Why did she have to be so indirect? Can't she just admit that she does not know?' She just hoped that she didn't have the skills.

"Mommy, why would you ask such a question?" asked Zac with slight indication of vigilance in his eyes. Despite Mary being his mother, she had already caused a lot of trouble in the past, causing him to be on his toes every time he felt she was plotting something.

"Nothing. I just asked out of wonder," Mary said while she waved her hand.

When they arrived at the dance hall of Pleasure Sea View Hotel, there were already a variety of beautiful young women in the dance floor.

Both Walt and Mary walked towards the front of the court, while Zac and his wife followed after. Ivy, Daisy and Valery who was supported by a servant all followed behind them.

As soon as the two prominent sons of the Rong family appeared, the noisy banquet hall immediately quieted down.

The two men were so different, with Walt being so handsome and elegant, and Zac being his striking and unparalleled self. Despite the other noble and graceful male companions around the court, none of them could even close in comparison to the two brothers.

Although all the girls tried their best to be reserved and ladylike, there was clearly a glimmer of admiration in each one of their eyes.

Unfortunately for the girls, the younger son of the Rong family already had a beauty by his side. It was a pity and a shock for each one of the girls that the crown prince had devoted himself to the Yi family.

They also noticed that Valery, who carried Zac's son, stood behind them. However, this was not a night to gossip as everyone had to be in their best behavior to compete for the position of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Rong family.

"Cousin, all the rich and honorable ladies of the entire Dragon City have come here today. All of them are worthy for your hand. Have any of them caught your attention?"

asked Ivy while she covered her mouth and chuckled.

Walt had to force a smile on his face. He had only wanted one girl in his whole life, and her hand had already been taken by his own brother.

The host of the ball was the anchorwoman in Dragon City's satellite TV.

She read the opening remarks of the ball, and according to the revised script handed over by Mary just moments ago, she slowly said, "The second young mistress of the Rong family has a secret talent we would like to share. Before the opening of the ball, we would like to invite her to play a song on the piano for us."

Zac's eyes flashed with coldness and anger. It wasn't until this moment that he realized why his mother had asked Essie such a question earlier on.
