CHAPTER 486 THE BEST GIFT

Alina was the daughter of the patriarch of the Palmer family, but Emilie always thought herself to be the

one and only princess of the Palmer family.

"You're just a sick dying person. You cannot hold a candle for me at all." All content is property © .

Emilie had had the thought for more than a decade. It had grown root in her mind.

However, Emilie found Alina so stunning at this moment.

Alina had a crystal tiara on her head, and a dazzling diamond necklace around her neck. Her wedding

gown was puffy like clouds, which made her look like a real princess. The hem of her long skirt was

dragged along the floor. It seemed it was a noble’s wedding day today.

All guests fell in total silence.

People moved their eyes away from Emilie and never looked back, as if she were never there.

All men were conquered by Alina's noble and sweet temperament, and all women were outshone like

the faint stars around the bright moon.

"She's so pretty."

Even Leo was surprised and Nadine, who was sitting beside Leo, was applauding.

"Clap! Clap!"

There was only scattered applause at first, but as time went by, even Emilie's friends started to

applaud.

Emilie's face was twisted by anger, with flames of envy blazing in her eyes.

She walked toward Leo angrily in her high heels. Then she screamed, "Did you buy her those things?"

Leo's eyes skimmed over Emilie calmly, and he nodded. "Why not?"

Hearing that question, Emilie flared with irritation and nearly passed out.

However, the next moment, she seemed to have realized something. The anger on her face was gone,

and she looked at Alina with a teasing face.

"I see. You paid all of them and had a nobody deliver them here, so that you can outshine me? She

hired you, you, and you to help her." Emilie pointed at Nadine and shouted arrogantly.

As soon as she said that, people around her all changed their colors. Alina shook her head.

"I didn't hire them... I didn't even know that Mr. Cohen would be here today!"

Emilie became more presumptuous when hearing that. She continued, "As far as I know, you can't

afford any of these, they must be fake. Do you really think you can outshine me with that?"

Emilie was sure that Alina didn't have much money because she was sick too often, and she knew

Alina didn't have much savings, too. There was no way that she could afford these things so soon.

She couldn't think of any other opportunities except that these were all fake.

One girl standing next to her couldn't stand by and watch this anymore. She couldn't help speaking for

Alina. "Emilie, the necklace and the wedding gown are all real."

"You have said they were quality products..."

Someone else added.

Emilie was immediately gripped by anger, "Shut the f*ck up! All of you!"

She snarled with sullen eyes, "They are fake. You don’t know anything at all!"

Emilie knew those things are real in fact. She was just upset when seeing Alina in them. Moreover,

Alina had stolen all her limelight.

"You don't believe me, do you? Let me tear it up and show you now!"

Emilie walked to Alina with disdain, and was going to rip off Alina's wedding dress.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

Alina's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly reached out to stop her.

"I'll let you regret buying all these fake stuff! You hypocritical b*tch!"

Emilie's face was distorted by jealousy. Then she rushed over and tangled with Alina.

Alina was too weak to be a match for Emilie, and was immediately pushed down on the sofa.

After a shrill sound, a piece of fabric of Alina's wedding gown was ripped off.

Fortunately, it was just a small part of the hem. Emilie failed making Alina embarrassed in public by

exposing Alina’s lower body.

Alina felt sad witnessing the gown destroyed.

This was the first most precious gift in her life, but now it was ruined.

Tears welled up in her eyes and streamed down her cheeks when she thought of that.

"Hahaha... I told you it's fake! It's cheap that I can rip all of it up with bare hands!"

Emilie was gasping as she said that. She had spent lots of energy ripping that corner of the gown.

However, it was all worth it for her because she'd be happy as long as she upset Alina.

Leo wasn't going to interfere. He watched it quietly.

If he wanted to take any action, Emilie would never have the chance to touch Alina.

He didn't do it because he wanted Alina to know that crying wouldn't do her any good. She must resist

if it’s necessary.

Now that Alina's beloved gown had been ripped by Emilie, Alina was still sitting there and weeping.

She didn't have any intention to stand up for herself.

Therefore, instead of helping Alina right away, Leo decided to guide her.

"Do you know how much this wedding gown has cost? You ripped a piece off, but you have to pay for

the whole dress."

Leo looked at Emilie and asked.

Emilie didn't look afraid at all. She even scoffed, "You've already given it to her as a gift! It’s none of

your business. Well, I’m sure she dare not ask me for compensation!"

"I've torn her wedding gown, and her diamond necklace should be broken!"

Emilie screeched and walked towards Alina.

Leo still didn't move, nor had he shown the slightest clue of being irritated. He just watched.

"The most precious birthday present I wanna give you is neither this diamond necklace nor this

wedding gown. It's resistance."

Leo continued calmly, "Other than kindness, there is also bullying and oppression in this world. When

injustice comes, resistance is needed."

Just by then, Emilie walked up to Alina and grabbed the diamond necklace on her neck.

Alina immediately panicked. She chocked, "Please... Don't break my necklace."

Emilie sneered, "Keep begging me! Don’t stop until I felt happy!"

Alina was suddenly muted.

Emilie took the chance and growled, "Beg me! Or I'll strip all your clothes!"

Alina's tears rolled down again. She sobbed, "Please, I'm begging you..."

Emilie paused for a second. She was surprised that Alina really said it.

The next moment, she reached her hands and pulled with all her strength.

"Crash!"

The diamond necklace on Alina's neck was snapped.

The diamond-beads scattered on the ground like falling stars.

Time seemed to stand still. Alina instantly opened her eyes widely and looked at the scattered

diamonds on the ground in disbelief.

The others were also dumbfounded. No one had expected Emilie would be so over the line with Alina.

However, none of them would stand up and speak for Alina.

Leo was also looking at him with an indifferent look.

Alina started to tremble slightly.

Emilie laughed disdainfully, "That is the birthday you deserve. You want to outshine me? In your

dreams!"

"Hahaha..."

Emilie threw back her head and laughed. Then she turned away.

Alina was sitting still on the ground.

The next moment, she suddenly stood up and strode toward Emilie.

"Hmm?"

Emilie turned around impulsively, because she had felt murderous atmosphere behind.

However, before she could see anything behind, Emilie felt a sharp pain on her head.

Alina grabbed Emilie's long hair with all her strength, and had even pulled off a streak, then Emilie's

was pushed onto the ground.

"Crash!"

Emilie fell against a glass table and crashed it. Then she fell into the shattered glass, skin cut.

"Argh!"

As blood oozed out from the wound, Emilie screamed out in pain.
