Chapter 127 - The Ethereal Beauty

—------------------------------------------------

"But.. sigh! I think you are right. She is not going to come and attend the party. 

But I thought that she would come and apologise to everyone to atone for her sins! I think, i should give up now!'' She took a deep breath and looked hurt but before anyone could sympathise with her or say anything, the sound of high heels took their attention.

But instead of the sound coming from the door or entrance, the sound of high heels came from the stairs. Many of them turned to look at the new entry when their eyes widened and they looked stunned.

Most of them who were looking at the girl for the first time were mesmerised and those who had seen the blonde hair girl, who used to look dirty and unkempt, were shocked to see such a drastic change on her face. 

They could not believe that it was the same hazel who used to walk with her hair all over the place and dirt on her face.

The girl in the stairs was wearing a red dress that was more than 1 metre long and falling on the stairs. Her eyes and cheeks were painted red and her face was shining. Her deep sapphire eyes were glowing with life as if the stars had been sucked by them, leaving their starlight into the whole room.

Her figure had been accentuated by the dress that had rubies adorned on its waist. As if all the stars had come to adore her. She her hair that had been held in a bun, a few of the strands were falling on the corner of her face, that gave her more seductive look and her long legs that were peeping out from the slit of her red dress was making everyone to not blink their eyes in case they would miss its one glimpse. 

Who had said that hazel was ugly duckling? She was looking like an ethereal goddess that had come to earth to show them what real beauty was! Many of them could not even keep their eyes away from her face and body

But women only felt jealous when they looked at her. So their eyes were instead on the man who was holding the arms of the girl possessively. He was wearing a black suit with a matching red shirt to make it look like a couple 's dress.

His hair was set backwards properly. His narrowed eyes were giving him a daunting look. His pale and thin lips and his chiselled jawline! Everything about him was just perfect

He had a regal and noble aura that looked rather intimidating but they could not help but feel attracted to his cold eyes that were spellbinding.

The whole hall was engulfed in strange silence as many of them even held their breaths when their eyes fell on the couple.

A sweet smile was on the face of the girl while a strong and daunting look on the face of the man. They were matching each other perfectly.

Taking slow steps towards the group of girls that were talking about her, hazel gave them a mesmerising smile as she asked,

"I heard that you wanted me to apologise to all of you!" she blinked her eyes as she looked at them. Her fluttering eyelashes were giving her a look of the fairy that many men could not help but turn to look at her.

Soon the group of girls had all the attention of the entire ballroom.  Though feeling a bit intimidated, the girl recovered from the sudden shock and came back to her senses.

Getting their haughty expressions back on their face, they consoled their heart that she was still the hazel who did not have any support. And even if she had such an attractive husband, he was not a noble and did not have any backing.

What did it even matter if he was handsome? Beauty can not fill your stomach. That was why she was still living with her family even after getting married.,

With that thought, they looked at her with disdain.

"Does it even matter? Apology is not the solution to every mistake. You think we will forgive you just because you apologised!?'' asked the daughter of the marquees as she folded her hands in front of her chest.

She was wearing one of the best dresses and getting the attention of all of the men. So she did not like the fact that all her attention was taken away by her!

"Hmm, I agree! We should not forgive others just because they apologise. Even when the apology was given half heartedly. 

Thank you, i will remember it when you apologise to me later!" replied hazel with a sweet chuckle that was like music to their ears but her words and eyes were cold that stunned the girl.

"What do you mean? Why will I apologise to a girl like you who ran away from her house and even dared to come back with her husband and live there?

Do you even have any shame?" her eyes bored a hole in the hazel. If looks could kill, hazel would have already died by her sharp glares.

"Tsk! Time will tell that. And how do you even know that I ran away? Weren't you telling me that you didn't even know who I was just a few moments ago!?" asked Hazel back as she turned to scan the faces of all the other girls.

Melisa and Madeline took a step back when they felt her gaze on them.

"We did not say anything. We were just standing there, I promise!" replied Melisa as the same fear started crawling up to her skin with only one look of hazel who chuckled and shook her head.

Her eyes were still cold yet no one could take their eyes away from her face, 

"That is only for your benefit. In the end, there are a few smart people who know not to repeat their mistakes!"
