Chapter 28: Cheap Evening Gown

Peter sincerely asked, "Is it too late to take back what I said earlier?"

Elizabeth turned over and lazily said with her eyes closed, "No taking back. You won\'t be my student if not."

Peter felt miserable. He remembered his student days and the fear of being made to copy text as a punishment by Professor Lawrence.

Indeed, Professor Lawrence was strict.

Muttering to himself, Peter said, "Fine, I\'ll do the copying. Oh, I\'ve also sent you a gift for tonight."

Elizabeth commented, "Your laugh sounds like that of a eunuch. If there\'s nothing else, let\'s end the call."

Silenced, Peter paused for a while before saying, "Okay."

At least he had some self-awareness.

Elizabeth didn\'t take Peter\'s gift seriously and dressed to go downstairs.

Sophia was discussing the evening\'s arrangements with the servants. Seeing Elizabeth come down, she quickly called out.

"Elizabeth, you have a package."

Still groggy, Elizabeth lazily walked over, her eyelids drooping, looking quite adorable.

Sophia couldn\'t help but laugh, "Did you buy something online?"

"It\'s an evening gown sent by a friend."

Elizabeth answered truthfully, picking up the delivery box.

"Are you planning to wear it tonight?" Sophia seemed a bit concerned. She had already prepared a top-designer gown for Elizabeth for the evening event.

After all, how wealthy could a friend from the countryside be? The gift was probably a cheap gown.

"No, I won\'t wear it. It would cause a scene."

Elizabeth shook her little head, the loose strands of hair falling on her forehead, adding to her charm.

Overwhelmed with maternal love, Sophia decided that whatever Elizabeth said was right. Who cares if the gown was cheap? Anyone who dared to criticize the Wilson family\'s darling would be dealt with.

As Elizabeth was about to go upstairs, Sophia quickly stopped her, "Oh, by the way, a few people will come over tonight. I\'ll introduce you to them. Just let me know whom you find agreeable."

Elizabeth raised an eyebrow, her dark eyes showing a hint of confusion.

Sophia explained, "We\'ve asked Sunny Heights High School about their donation policy, and they don\'t accept donations. So it\'s going to be difficult for you to get in."

"That\'s why your dad and I looked for some good schools that do accept donations. But we still respect your choice. We\'ve invited some principals to come over during Linda\'s birthday party so you can get a feel for the schools."

This situation reminded Elizabeth of selecting a royal consort, and she couldn\'t help but twitch her eyelid. She replied in a flat tone, "Sunny Heights is fine."

Sophia paused, surprised at Elizabeth\'s stubbornness. She softly said, "You should look forward; don\'t get hung up on a single goal. There might be better options for you."

"Don\'t worry about the school; leave it to me. I won\'t let you be at a disadvantage."

Elizabeth remained silent, finally saying, "Alright."

Sophia sighed in relief, thinking that Elizabeth had let go of her obsession with Sunny Heights.

But in reality, Elizabeth had different plans. If no one else believed her, then she\'d make them believe.

...

By 8 o\'clock in the evening, the Wilsons\' guests had begun to arrive.

Most of the invitees were people of status. Even though it was an adult party, it was also a networking event.

Any member of the Wilson family who turned 18 would have such a party, except for Elizabeth who hadn\'t been with the Wilsons when she turned 18.

But Sir and Lady Wilson had already decided to hold a \'welcome back\' party for her later.

Sir and Lady Wilson, along with Jack, were already at the entrance to greet their friends and relatives.

Jack couldn\'t miss an occasion like this. He had come back just in time for the start of the party and hadn\'t seen Elizabeth yet, which was probably for the best to avoid any awkwardness.

Time passed by.

Nearly everyone on the guest list had arrived.

Sophia glanced at the clock, "That should be everyone."

Sir Wilson looked back and instructed Jack, "You go ahead and entertain them."

Jack was about to leave when a luxury car pulled up in front of the house.

When they saw who stepped out, the faces of Sir and Lady Wilson, along with Jack\'s, showed signs of astonishment and a touch of uncertainty.
