His Versatile Gorgeous Wife

Chapter 215
Back in the hall
Russell took the mic and started his speech on the platform, “Today is my daughter, Yvette’s, birthday. Thank you all for coming
to her party tonight As her father, my only wish is for her happiness and well-being. Yvette, happy birthday!”
Then, Yvette made her way onto the stage to give Russell a hug.
“Thanks, Dad. And also, thanks to everyone for coming to my party.”
A thunderous applause erupted in the hall.
Just then, Russell’s eyes widened in shock. He looked terrified while pointing at the entrance. “T-That...”
The guests were confused at the drastic change in his expression. Subconsciously, they looked in the direction where he was
pointing and saw Shandie standing at the door, looking baffled.
Since Shandie had wasted much time dealing with the bodyguards earlier, she hastily rushed into the house, afraid that she
might be late.
As soon as she entered the hall, she saw Russell standing on the platform, pointing at her. The man’s face was a look of anger
and terror.
As others turned around, their expressions stiffened as if they had seen something out of this world.
A first, Shandie had no idea what was going on until the ear-piercing sound of Russell’s mic dropping grated her ears. That was
when she suddenly recalled that black color was taboo for Russell.
She, unfortunately, had dressed in black from head to toe!
At that instant, her face was drained of all colors, and her mind went blank. Why is Uncle Russell back? Meanwhile, the guests
were all staring at her and gossiping about her. “Mr. Actonward is here today, so how could she dress in black? Is she here to
ruin the party?” “Whose daughter is she? How wicked! Didn’t she know that black color-is taboo for the Guzzurns? Black outfits
are only allowed at a funeral.”
“She’s not here to ruin the party but to put a killing curse on Mr. Actonward!”
Since Shandie had always hung out with Yvette, some of the socialites had recognized her.
“Isn’t she Shandie? Has she gone crazy? How could she wear a black gown to the party!” “Isn’t she close to Yvette? Why did she
show up in a black dress? From the look of it now, it seems like they are frenemies. What an eye opener!”
“Oh dear, Shandie must have gone insane! I heard she made a mistake and was sent to the monastery by her father. It looks like
the life in the monastery has driven her crazy” Shandie froze on the spot as those murmurs crept into her ears. – Poor Shandie

never thought the grand appearance that she imagined would turn out that way. Everyone was tearing her down with the most
spiteful remarks, She was at a loss, not knowing how to respond.
For a long time, Russell remained silent on the platform. He fixed his eyes on Shandie, irritated at the sight of the latter’s black
gown.
The man got emotional when he recalled the issues faced by his company recently and his daughter’s canceled engagement. As
his brain was deprived of oxygen, he passed out and collapsed onto the ground,
“Dad!” Yvette called out and immediately rushed to her father’s side.
The guests all rushed to his aid. One of them helped pinched Russel’s philtrum while another helped call the ambulance. The
hail was in instant chaos.
Everyone was in a state of panic; all except for Yvette,
The young lady had feigned a worried expression. In fact, she couldn’t help it when her heart leaped with joy
Ha! Dad was so angry that he passed out! I thought he would only scold Arielle and kick her out at most. Things have turned out
way better than I expected!
It turned out that Yvette had purposefully avoided looking in “Arielle’s” direction just now, afraid that she might burst out laughing
after seeing “Arielle’s” stupefied state.

Hence, she still thought it was Arielle who showed up in that black gown
Yet when they failed to resuscitate Russell, only did she start to worry about him.
