Chapter 3 The Showstopper
In the top class ballroom of the Glorious Horizon Hotel.
After the engagement ceremony, Gloria and Joseph were following behind their parents in making their
toasts to the guests.
Wherever they went, there were blank stares behind them.
But they had no idea what was going on, and still carried smiling faces.
Gloria's heavily made-up face was full of smiles and her eyes were full of smugness, and her red Dior
dress made her look even more enchanting.
The Stewart's was one of the top five food companies in the world, many times better than the Murphy
family.
As the fiancée of Joseph, Gloria would certainly become the most envied existence in her circle of
celebrity.
And Joseph was overjoyed to be rid of Jocelyn, the fatty, and to be engaged to the real rich and
beautiful woman Gloria.
The wives of the rich families who had already known about the truth were making fun of them in the
dark.
"I told you, Gloria doesn't look like a decent person, see? I am right about it."
"Joseph looks so elegant, how could he be that scum? You can't really judge a man by his
appearance."
"I really feel sad for Jocelyn, she may be ugly but she is so kind. She has loved the wrong person.”
As soon as Jocelyn entered the door, her eyes were first to fixed on Joseph and Gloria. Based on the
smug on Gloria's face, Jocelyn was sure that she was unaware of the truth.
And she was happy to hear those wishpers about Gloria..
The champagne-coloured starlight gradient gown set her off, and her long curly hair draped over her
shoulders, which made her look noble, gentle enough to overpower the crowd.
With a light foundation on her face, she was graceful enough. It was as if such a woman was born to
stand in the cleanest of places, and even the slightest touch from an onlooker would be a stain.
Several men soon gathered around Jocelyn and took the initiative to introduce themselves,
complimenting her on her beauty and asking her which family she was from.
Jocelyn was faced with such a situation again after five years, and she had mixed feelings in her heart.
She smiled lightly at them and then walked up to Joseph and Gloria with her skirt in her hands.
With just a glance, Joseph held his breath, his eyes filled with amazement and shock.
Who was this? Jocelyn?
Wasn't her earthy fat irreversible? Why had she become so pretty now?
Joseph was stunned.
She was just wearing a dress, without a makeup and any ornaments.
Yet she easily overpowered the heavily made-up Gloria and received the attention of the men in the
audience!
Gloria was beautiful, but her features were not refined enough.
But Jocelyn was perfect in every aspect.
His heart was instantly filled with remorse. Had he known that she would regain her beauty, he would
certainly not have dumped her.
The parents of the Gloria and Joseph were equally shocked.
Allen looked excitedly at his daughter, who had been restored to her former beauty, with eyes full of
disbelief, "Jocelyn, is it really you? Where have you been for the past three years? Why haven't you
contacted us? And how did you lose so much weight?"
Although Joseph said that Jocelyn might have eloped with someone, but he did not believe it at all,
because he knew his daughter very well.
Jocelyn‘s father was exited to see her, and Jocelyn felt guilty.
In the beginning, she didn't even contact her father in order to be able to cure her illness without being
disturbed.
"Dad, it's a long story, I will tell you when we get home." Jocelyn said.
Allen nodded his head repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
"Jocelyn, you're back," Joseph was excited that his hands hanging at his side trembled slightly.
If you compare a woman to a flower, Jocelyn is a pure and noble white peony, while Gloria is at best a
wild rose.
When a man had not seen a white peony for a long time, he might be attracted to a wild rose.
But once the white peony returned, the existence of the wild rose would have no meaning.
Joseph's reaction made Gloria furious.
In that moment she felt like she was back in the days when she had been pressured by Jocelyn.
In those days, Joseph and all the second generation rich people in Flento City only had eyes for
Jocelyn, the first daughter of the Murphy family, but not for Gloria, the second daughter of the Murphy
family.
Her jealousy was so strong that her fists were clenched almost to the point of making a sound.
How could Jocelyn regain her looks! How could she!
Jocelyn looked at Joseph, her stomach turning over at the look in his eyes.
This man was really enough.
By this time many people had noticed the situation on their side and came over in unison.
"Well, I heard about your engagement just after I returned home yesterday, so I planned to come and
give my blessings today." Jocelyn was calm and spontaneous, not seeing a half-mood of emotion
under her clear eyes.
Such an attitude made Joseph extremely lost, she used to be always around his ass, he used to be her
world.
But now the situation was different, and he couldn't bear the huge psychological difference.
"Oh my God, Jocelyn has actually become beautiful again, Gloria can not compete with her."
"They cheated on her, and she still came to give her blessing, she is really generous."
"Gloria is not as good looking as Jocelyn."
The whispers of the people around her were like knives cutting into Gloria's self-esteem, and at this
moment she only felt anger!
No, what did these people mean? No one knew what had happened between them in the first place.
"What are you guys babbling about?" Gloria met the sarcastic gazes with a dissatisfied face.
"See the hot search yourself." Someone uttered.
Gloria instantly checked the the topic that was number one in the hot search.
Gloria, Joseph and their parents were stunned!
"What's going on here! Gloria, give me an explanation! Didn't you and Joseph get together after
Jocelyn left? So you guys lied to me?" Allen, who didn't know the truth, had an angry face.
"Honey, we'll talk about this at home, it is humiliated enough." Sara Moran pulled Allen's hand and
whispered.
The stares from the crowd and the vicious slurs on the internet made Gloria feel ashamed.
So the guests here already knew about all this?
If that was the case, she must have been cursed in the back when she and Joseph were making a
toast.
She felt ironic just thinking about that image. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
On the contrary, Jocelyn looked like she had nothing to do with it.
She seriously doubted that Jocelyn was behind the scene, for it happened just after she returned
Without hesitation, Gloria clutched Jocelyn's wrist and dragged her all the way to the end of the
corridor.
Gritting her teeth, she asked, "You did it, right? You're so shameless, you want to make things difficult
for me, don't you?"
She was furious and slapped fiercely towards Jocelyn's face.
