After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities -
Chapter 990
Chapter 990
She took out a set of underwear from her suitcase and headed towards the bathroom.
After a relaxing hot bath, she started to feel drowsy.
She lay down on the bed and fell asleep in no time.
When she woke up, it was already past four in the afternoon, disturbed by a knocking sound on the door.
She hugged the thin blanket and sat up, her mind momentarily confused. Looking at the unfamiliar room and surroundings, it took her a moment to realize where she was.
The voice of the butler came from outside the door, "Miss, are you awake? The stylist has arrived."
"A stylist?" Sylvia rubbed her forehead, still feeling a bit drowsy. "I can do it myself..."
"Old Mrs. Hipps specifically inquired about a reputable styling team. Would Miss refuse?" The butler's voice sounded again, this time with an inquiring tone.
"Oh, forget it. I'll get up right away. Let them wait for a while." Sylvia couldn't bear to reject the kindness of Old Mrs. Hipps, so she immediately got out of bed and put on a cotton pajama set.
Then she glanced at the dresses in the wardrobe. It was an evening reception to welcome her, although it was called a family banquet. It was clear that Old Mrs. Hipps attached great importance to it. This was the first time she was formally introduced to the Hipps family.
So... Sylvia knew she couldn't dress too shabbily.
She picked a champagne-colored off-the-shoulder cocktail dress and opened the door of the room. As expected... the butler was standing there respectfully. Seeing her come out, he immediately said, "The styling team is in the dressing room. Please follow me, Miss."
Sylvia was not familiar with the Hipps family mansion, so she followed the butler to the end of the corridor on the second floor. There was a large room filled with wardrobes, shoe racks... and a floor-length dressing table with a makeup mirror.
"Miss, all the shoes in here are prepared for you." The butler opened a shoe cabinet as tall as the ceiling, which was filled with shoes.
There were casual shoes, high heels, loafers, sneakers... even dozens of different brands of slippers...
This...
Sylvia twitched her mouth. Although she thought her wardrobe in H RovirsaLarro's house was luxurious enough, compared to this place... it was simply incomparable.
"And here, all the clothes in this entire wardrobe are prepared for Miss, along with various accessories." The butler pointed to the styling team and said, "Feel free to choose if you want to match any accessories."
Sylvia: "..."
The bedroom was already filled with clothes, and now there was an entire wall of clothes hanging in the wardrobe.
Wasn't this being too extravagant?
And in that cabinet of accessories, almost all of them were designer handbags, many of which were limited editions.
And on the dressing table in front of her were all kinds of skincare and makeup products, all from international luxury brands.
She twitched her mouth. Was Old Mrs. Hipps treating her like a little princess? Wasn't she afraid of spoiling her?
The styling team consisted of several beautiful women, all women and no men.
When Sylvia appeared, the leading woman greeted her warmly, "Are you Miss? Please come and sit here."
As she spoke, she looked Sylvia up and down, her eyes showing genuine admiration. "Miss has such beautiful skin that I can't bear to put foundation on you. It's even fairer and smoother than foundation!" She had styled many young ladies from prestigious families and even celebrities before, but none of them compared to Sylvia's natural beauty.
Her delicate features had no flaws that could be picked out. Her fair skin was flawless.
They had heard that she was styling the newly found true heiress of the Count's Mansion before, and they were reluctant at first. Fortunately, the Count's Mansion was generous and paid well. They had thought she was some unknown country girl before.
But what happened? She turned out to be even more princess-like than a princess.
Just comparing this dressing room alone was enough to make people envious.
"I have chosen a cocktail dress. What do you think?" Sylvia handed over the dress she liked to the stylist. "Can I wear this tonight?"
"Absolutely! Miss has a tall figure that can perfectly carry this cocktail dress. It is both elegant and appropriate." The stylist praised Sylvia's choice of dress and added, "Since Miss has a dress she likes, let's match the makeup and accessories."
Then the other women started to get busy as well.
Sylvia sat in front of the dressing table and became like a puppet.
After about an hour, all the makeup was done. The stylists also did Sylvia's hair. Her long black hair was styled into loose waves, some of which were tied up while the rest cascaded down her back elegantly. Because it was a family banquet, no one else was invited except for relatives of the Hipps family. Almost everyone from each branch of the family came to the main mansion's hall.
The hall was decorated like a small banquet venue with self-service tables filled with exquisite pastries and some red wine.
The smaller tables around were filled with various dishes and seafood, as well as fresh fruits.
The hall was brightly lit, with servants shuttling back and forth occasionally adding fresh dishes or drinks.
The Hipps family's young ladies were all present, dressed up to their best to show their most beautiful side, with the intention of outshining that true heiress.
Jaelynn wore a watermelon red evening gown that accentuated her slim figure, making her look incredibly graceful.
She glanced at these familiar faces in the hall; they were all members of the Hipps family.
Annika was even more eye-catching; she wore a bright red qipao with a high slit that reached her thigh roots. Her fair and slender legs would occasionally peek out as she walked-stunning! Jaelynn felt a slight discomfort in her chest. Was Annika crazy? Being so ostentatious just to overshadow others?
She then looked at Martha and Maritza, who had just walked over after crossing the threshold.
Martha wore a black evening gown that suited her plump figure perfectly. Black made her look slimmer. Maritza wore a golden dress that seemed ordinary from the front but... Jaelynn froze.
Maritza's back revealed a large bareback design!
She couldn't help but curse inwardly. Damn it! Were these sisters insane?
On the other hand, she felt like she dressed so plain... just ordinary without any special features.
She felt a bit disappointed.
But she didn't show it; instead, she greeted them happily.
The Hipps family had several unmarried daughters besides them; there were also some sisters who were already married. They all came with their families for this family banquet.
After all, they were already married and didn't have that urgent desire to marry into a wealthy family. So they dressed modestly; some even brought their children along.
Seeing these four sisters dressed so gorgeously, almost everyone understood without saying anything.
After all, they were able to replace satisfactory husbands thanks to Old Mrs. Hipps' blessings. These sisters who wanted to marry into good families undoubtedly needed Old Mrs. Hipps' help as well. Martha couldn't help but feel impatient. "It's already seven o'clock. Why hasn't that girl come out yet?"
Annika casually flicked her perfectly manicured nails and sighed. "Although it's called a family banquet, our Hipps family is big with dozens of people from top to bottom. She comes from a small family; she probably hasn't seen such grand occasions before and is too scared to come down."
"Annika has a point. After all, not every family is like our Hipps family; there are influential people everywhere." Maritza also sneered at Sylvia's absence. "Since Miss has become fond of wearing cocktail dresses lately, let's welcome another internet celebrity!" Her voice dripped with sarcasm; being an internet celebrity wasn't considered a good status in their eyes.
Jaelynn suddenly didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore; she secretly thought that Annika and Maritza might be revealing too much skin, but so what? Even if Sylvia didn't dress provocatively like them, she could still outshine them!
Thinking that relying on exposure and sexiness could attract attention was just a joke!
Some relatives of the Hipps family had seen Sylvia shine at Old Mrs. Hipps' banquet last year and now saw her suddenly coming downstairs.
Involuntarily, someone exclaimed, "Sylvia? What is she doing here?"
"Sylvia? That name sounds familiar..." Martha frowned. "I feel like I've heard it somewhere."
"That H Rovirsa influencer... isn't her name Sylvia?" Maritza took over. "Could it be her? Haha-another internet celebrity recognized!"
Her voice was full of mockery; being an internet celebrity wasn't considered a good status in their eyes.
Jaelynn suddenly remembered something important. "I think... recently there was someone who saved the Hipps family and was also named Sylvia..."
