Before Cecilia attended Steven's birthday party, she was dressed in a simple T-shirt and jeans, only to be stopped by Emma.
"Mommy, are you planning to wear that to meet Dad?"
Cecilia looked down at what she was wearing and nodded.
What was the problem? She always dressed up like this.
"No, no, Mommy! Although you're always the prettiest, we can't let other ladies steal the spotlight at Dad's birthday party."
As she said that, Emma started rummaging through the wardrobe. After some time, she finally found a light green strapless dress.
"Mommy, wear this! I bet Dad will be captivated when he sees you!"
Cecilia wasn't concerned whether Steven would be captivated by her. But after thinking it through, she realized that since he was a big CEO and the guests attending the party would be wealthy and high-status, her outfit might indeed seem a bit too casual.
‘Fine,’ she thought. ‘I'll do it out of respect for him.’
