She must have spent a small fortune on it, and in any other setting, she might have shone brightly. But here, her choice would cost her dearly. Oblivious to the subtle scorn, Eve sipped her wine, lapping up Ashley's praise.
"Eve, you look stunning in this dress.
Everyone's eyes are on are on you.IEMM McKinney were here, he'd be smitten." X
