Chapter 87: Implementation plan

"Wow, sis, I didn’t expect to run into you here. What a coincidence!" Hannah walked over, her smile bright.

Ella glanced at the composed Avery. This woman sure knew how to put on a good front in front of others.

"Miss Allen, it’s a surprise to see you again," Ella said with a faint smile, her eyes betraying no emotion.

Chloe snorted, "I don’t think it’s a coincidence. It’s intentional, right, Hannah? What are you up to now?"

Hannah’s face flushed with embarrassment. "Chloe, how can you say that? What kind of trick could I possibly have? I was just feeling bored, so I came out with Avery and Emma to get some fresh air!"

Emma stood by, sneering at Ella. She couldn’t understand why Eric was interested in this girl. Sure, Ella was pretty, but there were plenty of women who were more beautiful. What did Eric see in her?

When it came to figure, Avery’s was far more stunning. So why did Eric choose Ella?

Avery, however, smiled lightly. "Miss Carter, I just came over to say hello. We mean no harm."

"If my sister doesn’t want you here, please leave," Charles said calmly. He didn’t want any trouble and definitely didn’t want to give them a chance to set Ella up.

Avery and the others looked visibly uncomfortable.

Charles could see right through their schemes. He’d witnessed a similar plot at a classmate’s birthday party Ella attended. If he hadn’t helped Ella, she might have been in serious trouble.

"I have something to tell you in private, sis!" Hannah said shyly, leaning close to Ella’s ear. But before she could speak, a cold liquid spilled onto Ella.

Ella quickly pushed Hannah away, looking at her white lace dress now stained with red wine. She frowned.

Hannah’s expression changed dramatically. "I’m so sorry, sis, I didn’t mean to! I was trying to tell you something, and the wine just accidentally spilled... Maybe we can find a waiter and see if there’s something you can change into?"

Ella’s white lace dress was completely ruined, soaked through by the large amount of wine. Yet, despite this, she looked even more alluring.

A man not far away had his eyes lit up with desire. He loved girls like her, fresh and delicate.

"You did that on purpose!" Chloe, with her bad temper, jumped up and pointed at Hannah.

"Chloe, let it go. Maybe Hannah didn’t mean it. Her glass was quite full," Ella said calmly, holding Chloe back. Her gaze shifted to Charles.

"Charles, didn’t I bring another dress? Could you please get it for me so I can change?" Since her rebirth, Ella had been meticulous, always preparing for the unexpected.

Who would’ve thought the spare dress she brought would come in handy?

Avery and Hannah exchanged a glance, something odd flashing in their eyes.

"Sis, the ship also offers dry cleaning services. You’ll get your dress back quickly. Why not have a waiter pick out something nice for you to wear? Look at all the stylish dresses the ladies on the ship are wearing..."

"No need, thanks for the offer. I don’t feel comfortable wearing other people’s clothes," Ella interrupted coldly before Hannah could finish.

Hannah, seeing this, didn’t push further. "Alright then, sis. I’m really sorry for the mess."

Charles took out a dress from the suitcase and handed it to Ella. "Be careful, Chloe, go with Ella to change."

He didn’t feel at ease, so he had Chloe accompany Ella.

After Ella and Chloe left, Avery and Hannah returned to their seats. As expected, they noticed William’s eyes fixed intently on Ella’s departing figure.

"See, Ella seems to be just William’s type," Avery said with a light laugh. Having spent so much time in this circle, she knew William’s tastes very well.

"Yeah, without even changing into a sexy evening dress, Ella has already become his target!" Emma sneered. Their plan had been to have Ella change into a provocative dress they had prepared once her clothes got wet.

However, Ella’s foresight in bringing her own change of clothes had disrupted their scheme.

They had hoped the revealing dress would entice William further, but even without it, it seemed Ella couldn’t escape his clutches.

Hannah, excited, whispered to Avery, "So, it’s over to you now!"

"Sure thing, no one will know about this. Just sit back and enjoy the show!" Avery’s smile was as cold as a viper’s, causing Hannah to shiver slightly.

But the thought of Ella soon becoming William’s prey filled her with a cruel satisfaction, as exhilarating as the breeze from the window.

Ella and Chloe followed a waiter to the changing room, where Ella removed her wine-soaked dress.

The more Ella thought about it, the more suspicious she became.

Hannah did it on purpose!

She deliberately spilled wine on her and then encouraged her to change clothes... Coupled with her overly warm demeanor, something was definitely off!

Was she trying to recreate the embarrassing incident from Ella’s past life?

No, something didn’t add up!

After changing into a purple gown, Ella tossed her wet dress into the trash.

Chloe was outside playing on her phone. When she saw Ella emerge, her eyes lit up. "Ella, you look stunning! No matter what you wear, you make it impossible for anyone to look away."

The current Ella had lost her previous arrogance, and her demeanor had changed significantly, making her much more agreeable to others.

Ella sat next to her, not in a hurry to leave.

"Do you think Hannah deliberately spilled the wine on me?" Ella asked.

Chloe nodded vigorously. "Of course! It was definitely on purpose. Just look at her fake face; I just want to rip it off!"

"But why would she spill wine on me? After getting wet, I’d need to change clothes. Clothes—could it be something wrong with the clothes she brought? Or..." Ella racked her brain but couldn’t figure out Hannah’s exact scheme.

Chloe, growing impatient, stood up. "Stop overthinking it. My brother is here; she won’t dare do anything. Come on, let’s go outside and have some juice. I heard the cocktails here are really good. Even though we’re still students, having one or two drinks once in a while is fine. My brother won’t mind."
