Chapter 53 - 53 A Stunning Entrance
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly said, “Actually, it’s also good to break off the engagement. After all, the current Caroline is indeed not worthy of Austin.”
As the young master of the Campbell family, Austin was undoubtedly one of the ideal candidates for a son-in-law in the eyes of many families. It was a pity that he had been bound to the Lambert family long ago, so they did not have the opportunity to make a move.
If he were to break off the engagement, the other families could give it a try. Therefore, when these words were said, many people agreed.
“However, I heard that Caroline’s obsession with Austin is very strong. I’m afraid that it won’t be easy for him to cancel the engagement.”
After all, Caroline was a willful lunatic who could sell half of the Lambert family’s assets and anger her father to the hospital. No one knew what she would do to not break off the engagement.
The crowd was in a heated discussion. Austin and Kelly looked at each other with smiles in their eyes. Both of them were very satisfied that they could get rid of Caroline without damaging their reputation.
Suddenly, someone at the door shouted, “Caroline is here!”
Everyone looked towards the door and saw Caroline wearing a green silk dress. She walked in gracefully.
Her long golden hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, outlining her bright and flawless facial features, her exquisite collarbones, and her waist that could not be held.
But the most amazing thing about her was her pair of brows. Just a light glance at her brows made her look so deep, like a bottomless spring. In the rippling green, there was a touch of darkness.
She walked over from afar, her figure straight but not losing her grace and elegance. Her long green silk dress rippled with her movements, making people’s hearts rise and fall.
“Heavens! Is this Caroline? When did she become so beautiful?” someone in the crowd exclaimed.
Just by looking at this face, this figure, and demeanor, even if she had a complete idiot’s head, if she was placed beside him, she would become a pleasing flower vase.
Immediately, many people looked at Austin enviously. This kid was really lucky with women. However, what made them even more resentful was that such a beautiful woman had come to his door, but Austin did not even like her.
Come to think of it, Caroline had just sold 40% of the Lambert Corporation’s shares, which meant that she had a huge sum of money on her!
Thus, Caroline was immediately labeled as ‘rich and beautiful’. Instantly, many young men’s thoughts became active, especially those who were not heirs and did not have many assets.
Austin naturally noticed their envious gazes. To be honest, when he saw Caroline’s godlike beauty, even Austin was stunned for a moment.
In the past, even though Caroline was indeed pretty, she always had a gloomy fringe and did not like to dress up. She would always hide in a corner with her head lowered. If it was not because she often ‘bullied’ Kelly, everyone would probably have ignored her existence.
However, Caroline had changed. She became more arrogant and was no longer the same as before. Eyes were always chasing after her. Austin was slightly disappointed, but the envious gazes of the crowd made him feel even more proud. Indeed, if Caroline was a little more obedient, she would be very pleasing to the eye.
On the other hand, Kelly’s mood was completely different from Austin’s. She stared at Caroline with red eyes. The emotions that made her jealous and fearful had returned after so many years.
At that time, she had just been brought to the Lambert family and met Caroline. Compared to Kelly, who grew up like a wild child, Caroline was like a princess. She was the center of the Lambert family, and everyone pampered and gave in to her. Every time she appeared, she would immediately become the focus of the crowd.
The difference in their circumstances made Kelly’s heart lose balance, so she carefully weaved a net and put the little princess, who had not gone through much suffering, into the net step by step. Then, she spent a few years slowly destroying her.
