19 A GIFT TO MY FUTURE SISTER-IN-LAW

Ch-19

Eleanor looked at the female who asked for the dress. She thought it was an annoying female. Her expression smoothened when she saw a cute little girl who seemed to be in her teens. Her eyes shined with genuine admiration for the dress. Eleanor liked the dress and wanted it but seeing the expectant eyes of the cute kid she didn't have the heart to deny her. Her face turned from annoyance to shock to surprise to smile to trouble. All her actions were noticed by the little girl. The girl smiled at Eleanor.

"But, Miss, This lady already chose the dress." the saleslady said apologetically,

"But I only want this!!" The girl started yelling and felt like was going to cry at any second.

The saleslady looked troubled. Eleanor was a kind and big customer while this little lady also looked wealthy and spoiled brat. Pacifying them would be problematic. She could only give an awkward smile. If it was Old Eleanor she would have already started fighting head-on but now she only smiled and said, "Let the little lady have it,"

"But you chose it first, Ele," Myna interjected.

"This shop is not short of gowns," she said and dragged Myna away.

The girl who stood there looked stunned. She heard Eleanor was a top socialite and was known for her temper. Were the rumors all fake? Were the rumors spread by her bitchy friend, Jessica?

[My poor sister-in-law…. She isn't even aware of the rumors spreading about her. She was kind, soft-hearted, and a good woman. The only woman like her would suit my brother! No… no… no… Only she would suit my brother! But that stupid brother messed up everything! Sigh! I should do something!] the little teenage girl said as she started walking back and forth.

"Miss… the dress…" the saleslady reminded the little restless lady who was cooking up something.

"Take this and bill this thing for me," she said as she threw the card to her.

"You see a person is wearing black clothes from top to bottom near the counter. Hand the things to him," she said and ran after Eleanor's direction.

"Miss… Miss…" The little girl ran after Eleanor.

Eleanor who was continuing her shopping with her angry friend heard someone calling Miss but she ignored it thinking it was not for her.

"Miss… Didn't you hear me?" the little lady asked as she stopped in front of Eleanor.

"I thought it's not me," Eleanor said.

"Why are you so rude? First… you snatched the dress and second you came here to make a scene. What do you need?" the angry myna almost burst out.

"Myna… she is just a kid. Stop being mean," Eleanor chided her.

"Well… Mmmmm… Why didn't you fight for the dress?" the little lady asked after fidgeting sometime.

"It's just a dress. Nothing worth fighting," Eleanor said with a smile. This girl is sure interesting Eleanor thought.

"Yeah... Yea… Didn't even fight when your man got snatched and found a rented boyfriend just to embarrass your ex in his wedding. So… Kind Hearted," Myna snickered.

"You did very well, Miss. Even if you get him back, he might cheat on you again. Once a scum is always a scum!" the girl said as she huffed angrily.

"Do you still like your scummy ex, miss?" the girl asked.

"Not like but hate. Even If I wanted revenge I needed to be strong. Sigh…" Eleanor sighed at her state.

"Oh!" But the girl felt happy when she heard her words.

"Little girl, why are you here? Do you want to snatch another dress?" Myna asked as she narrowed her eyes dangerously.

"I am here to say sorry for earlier. And also I wanted to join you guys. I am alone here. And you both have good fashion sense. Could you help me?" the girl asked them with her puppy eyes.

"Sure," Eleanor said.

"No," Myna said at the same time.

"She stole your dress," she complained.

"Why are you being mean?" Eleanor asked as she shook her head.

"But she did!" She was adamant.

"Sister My brother is wooing a girl. She is beautiful but hard to get a place in her heart. Sister Eleanor, she has the same story as you. Cheated by an ex with her friend. After a long time, she was attending a party. I want her to look pretty in it so that she would give a chance to my brother. That dress would be too big for me. I can't wear it," the girl said in almost tears.

"She will be fine, Don't Worry," Eleanor said as she patted her head.

"Thank you," the girl cheered at her words.

[Aww… My sister-in-law is good. But gullible, no wonder she is bullied. I shall protect her!] she thought.

From the time Cedric returned from the trip, he turned into a cold statue. She and her father were worried and wanted to know about the women who affected her brother this much. After knowing it was the girl from the Zora Family, they heard a lot of things about her. But when they heard about Boris's family marriage situation and how she picked Cedric, they laughed with their ass out. So they decided to check about her by themselves because they knew the power of tongues and mouths of this society. Seeing Eleanor, this girl couldn't help but feel angry at the person who spread rumors about her.

"Let's go," Eleanor said as she dragged her to buy the dresses.

They both went around and looked through a lot of dresses but none amazed Eleanor. When she was about to leave, the yellow dress caught her eyes.

"Little Girl, this dress suits you well," she said.

"It's big but the shop people would adjust it to your sizes," Esther said.

"I will take this," the girl said.

"I saw this and bought it. You can forget about buying that," a haughty and arrogant voice said.

Wait… Isn't she that bitch?
