On the other end of the phone, Kevin continued to shout incessantly, and Song Fan wanted to quickly hang up the call. She comforted him, saying, “I’ll welcome you properly when you come back. You should hang up for now.”

“No! Song Fan, you heartless woman! You must return the gown to me today. I spent over 20 million dollars on that pearl, and the dress is the soul of my new collection this season!” Kevin’s voice grew increasingly agitated.

His haute couture was never meant for the general public, mainly targeting nobility worldwide. His designs were intended for people of high social status, and seeing his creation worn by someone unknown to him was a direct slap in the face.

Song Fan understood his concerns. Initially, she thought Meng Xia’s lack of fame might prevent anyone from taking this seriously. However, the situation had escalated, and now she needed to provide Kevin with an explanation. She patiently asked, “When was your dress delivered? Are you sure it was explicitly intended for me?”

“Of course! There’s only one Miss Song in the Song family.” Kevin suddenly widened his eyes, accusingly, “Don’t tell me your heartless dad and wicked stepmother snatched your dress? Disgraceful!”

Meng Yu couldn’t stand by any longer. Although the phone volume wasn’t loud, everyone nearby wanted to eavesdrop on the gossip, and Kevin’s voice carried to all of them.

Upon feigning sorrow, Meng Yu said, “Fanfan, I know you’re unhappy about us adopting a daughter, but you’re still the Song family’s young miss. Why target someone who saved your brother’s life? You’ve been in the countryside for so long; how could you possibly know a designer like Kevin?”

Her implication was clear—song Fan was lying, deliberately creating obstacles for Meng Xia.

Song Fan had a bad reputation in the social circle, exacerbated by her recent association with Gu Chen. Many people found Meng Yu’s words plausible.

If Song Fan truly had such connections, why had she been living unknown in the countryside for so many years?

“Did the Song family suddenly decide to adopt a daughter? Song Fan knew about this and deliberately set a trap?”

“Look at her clothes; they match with Young Master Gu. How could she wear a white dress?”

“Jealousy, perhaps? Now that there’s a new Miss Song, who would remember her? Faking Kevin’s identity, how shameless.”

“If it weren’t for the Song family taking her back, who would remember there was a young miss like her?”

Gu Chen wanted to step forward to defend Song Fan, but she stopped him, calmly addressing Meng Yu, “Considering Kevin’s temperament, you must be aware of the consequences if his new design is worn by someone he doesn’t approve of at a public event. Do you understand what that implies?”

Meng Xia, not well-versed in these matters, sensed the severity of the situation from Song Fan’s expression.

She grasped the underlying reason—Meng Yu had intercepted Song Fan’s gown and even intended to take the necklace.

Upon thinking about the caller mentioning the necklace’s value, over 20 million dollars, she couldn’t possibly accept it.

But considering that Meng Yu was her only support, she could only bear it all. “Sister, I’m sorry. Someone brought a dress that day, and godmother had just mentioned buying a dress for me the day before. I naturally thought it was a custom-made dress for me by my godmother, so I wore it. It’s all my fault.”

Tears had already fallen from Meng Xia’s eyes. She had spent over four hours on makeup and styling today, shedding only two tears. She didn’t want it to affect her appearance. “Also, I heard that Young Master Gu sent a dress to you. So, I didn’t think much about it. Since this dress belongs to my sister, I’ll take it off. The necklace matches this dress, and I won’t accept it.”

As she prepared to remove the dress, Song Kai quickly stopped her. “Xiao Xia, are you crazy? There are so many people watching!”

He couldn’t understand why all this fuss was over a dress.

However, thinking about the gown being designed by a renowned designer for Song Fan, coupled with the precious pearl necklace, he felt that Meng Yu was trying to rob Song Fan’s dress.

Meng Xia had been looking at him with gratitude. She was well aware that as long as someone from the Song family supported her, she could stand firm.

However, Song Kai’s next words almost knocked her off her feet. “Go to the dressing room and change your clothes. I’ll take the necklace for my sister. Her outfit isn’t suitable for a pearl necklace..”
