"Okay honey you are on right time...get dressed after it" Mrs Styller spoke again

"Huh?" Sam had an confused expression on her pretty little face

"Tea party. You forgot I had told you the last time"

"Ah? That..." Sam was busy finding an excuse when Mrs Styller spoke again "No excuses...it's weekend already so you are coming with me. Sigh... everyone in the circle ask about our second daughter they'd never seen before...I must show them how beautiful our girl is..." she spoke sternly, leaving no room for excuses

After all the chiding, Sam could only nod dejectly.

Mr Styller chuckled peeking at her dejected look "It's alright Mia. It's good to know more people"

"Drink" James passed her a glass of warm milk. Then he whispered "If you don't like it there, give me a call I'll pick you up"

"Bro...what evils things you two are planning?" Isabella whined

James tapped her nose "It's a secret" to which Isabella pouted

"I'll take you two out..." Before James could complete his sentence, Isabella squealed "Where? where?.."

James turned towards Samantha looking at her gently before opening his pale lips "Cruise"

One word 'cruise' was enough to make Isabella delighted. She knew his brother was talking about "Regal"

It's like that, one of the rich tycoons of the country-- Liam park had recently invested in a cruise ship -- "Regal" and so to celebrate its first sailing he had invited everyone from his circle on the cruise.

Isabella beamed happily 'See you soon Mr Winget'

"Girls?" Mr Styller called out to the girls who were in a daze staring in space, then he turned to James, speaking sternly "If you want to take my girls out, you have to promise their safety first"

"Dad, they are my sisters" James retorted, Mrs Styller also supported her son "C'mon Honey!!! your daughters are grown up they can protect themselves and besides James will be there with them"

"Even so, I can't be at ease leaving my beautiful daughters with the bunch of scoundrels" Mr Styller scoffed

"Who are you accusing, you were one hell of a scoundrel back then..." Mrs Styller poked at her husband, giggling

"Ahem" The embarrassed husband coughed awkwardly, then glaring at his wife, he warned "Don't talk nonsense, girls are here"

The breakfast ended and Samantha who was lazing around was dragged to get dressed for the tea party.

The tea party this time was held in a resort called "Full moon".

When Samantha reached the venue with Mrs Styller the party had already began.

They were warmly welcomed by two good looking attendants with drinks.

Mrs strutted on her heels dragging Samantha with her, towards a very beautiful man made lake with colourful lanterns hanging around.

Samantha looked around curiously, a bunch of wealthy ladies dressed in custom mades were chatting and drinking around. 'So this is what a tea party of these high class ladies look like' Samantha thought. To put it simple, it was all about boasting and ridiculing their attires, jewellery or their children, their husbands or even their husband's mistresses.

"My my!!! Isn't it 'The Mrs Styller'?" A mid-aged lady in a gorgeous cyan dress spoke with undisguised mockery

Samantha siezed the women before her from head to toe secretly, she had donned the latest edition from SPIRIT. She had maintained herself well despite being in her fifties so, the gown fits her perfectly. Samantha felt delighted to see that.

A designer always felt good upon seeing their work donned beautifully
