Eleven Years All to the Wrong Man novel Chapter 247

At the mention of Nathan, Evan’s expression soured, but Emma remained composed.

“Yes, Miss Lancaster. We have met before.”

Although Vivian acted friendly and enthusiastic, Emma just couldn't bring herself to like the woman. It was as if a subconscious instinct was telling her that Vivian saw her in a particularly negative light.

If Vivian hadn’t brought it up, Evan wouldn’t have even noticed that Emma was wearing the exact same dress as last time.

He frowned slightly, his eyes filled with doubt as he glanced at the woman beside him.

“You know, Mrs. Cooper, you’re so admirably frugal. For people in our circles, expensive gowns are practically disposable. You wear them once, and you’d never be seen in them a second time. I must say, you’re quite unusual, Mrs. Cooper. It’s certainly opened my eyes…”

Vivian didn’t elaborate on what she meant by “unusual.” She just covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled lightly, as if she were just making small talk.

Emma wasn’t an idiot; she knew Vivian was mocking her.

However, she didn’t think wearing a dress more than once was worthy of such ridicule. For someone like Vivian, who had grown up in an ivory tower, an expensive gown could certainly be a one-time-use item.

But for Emma, who came from a small-town family, these expensive dresses cost more than her parents made in a year.
