章 129: Day out (3)

"Erin, have you received any customers since the ball? I have been anxiously waiting to know. Did your mother comment on the dress?" 

"I was hoping this wouldn't be brought up so soon but it's best to get it out of the way right?" Erin sighed as it was a rather devastating turn of events. "It seems that I have been blacklisted among certain young ladies. Those who frequent my mother's shop and would have been good customers because they come from families with money. It's annoying but I have to move on."

"Is it because I wore the dress, isn't it? I'm sorry," Alessandra apologized. Given how many people are wary of her, they should have expected this outcome. "You should have turned down my invitation today. We can still turn back now."
