Chapter 30
“Kylie!” Sergio was almost losing control due to Kylie’s mockery
“There are many people watching you now,” Kylie reminded indifferently. “If you feel that you haven’t embarrassed yourself enough today, feel free to do so.”
“You.” Sergio gritted his teeth.
At that moment, he could not help but observe his surroundings.
People were still whispering about him from time to time.
Sergio left the hall, feeling ashamed and unable to face anyone.
Kylie watched Sergio leave, and the smile on her lips turned cold.
Her eyes flickered as she looked at Ethan, who was being surrounded and flattered by people. She turned around, intending to leave.
She came there to witness an important moment in Ethan’s life and to meet Jos, as per Ethan’s invitation.
Now that everything was accomplished, there was no need for her to stay any longer.
She did not like socializing unless absolutely necessary.
“Miss Stafford. Derick suddenly appeared in front of her, addressing her, “I am Mr. Hayden’s assistant, Derick. Mr. Hayden asked me to tell you not to leave and wait for him to come back.”
Kylie frowned.
How did he know she was about to leave?
Obviously, he had been surrounded the entire time and had no time to be distracted.
“I have to go over to him, Miss Stafford,” Derick conveyed the message and quickly left.
He was also afraid of Kylie’s refusal.
It was evident that Kylie wasn’t too keen on waiting.
Kylie eventually stayed.
ay with me.
Just in time, Joseph happily ran over and said, “Mommy, I knew you did not leave. You will stay right?”
“Yes.” Kylie felt a bit guilty.
She had originally planned to leave at that moment.

“Mommy, Daddy said if you don’t like the hall, you can go to the backyard. There’s a swing in the backyard. Can I take you to swing?”
“Sure.
Joseph held Kylie’s hand and walked toward the backyard.
After taking just a few steps, a waiter coming toward them suddenly tripped over something. He lost his balance, and the tray he was carrying, filled with red wine and champagne glasses, was about to spill onto
them.
Kylie, quick–eyed and nimble–handed, immediately pulled Joseph away and swiftly moved to the side, avoiding the spill.
Even so, some red wine splattered on her gown.
I’m so sorry. The waiter was pale with fear.
Kylie looked up at Salma and Perla, who were nearby.
Without thinking, she knew who the troublemakers were.
“Oh, the gown worth 1,776,000 dollars. What a pity that it gets dirty. Salma’s mocking voice rang out.
The waiter turned even paler upon hearing “1,776,000 dollars.”
He froze on the spot.
“Kylie, you would not make things difficult for a mere waiter, right? Accidents are bound to happen when wearing such a gown, right?” Salma deliberately remarked.
Salma had suffered numerous setbacks that night, and seeing Kylie so proud angered her.
Kylie, after breaking up with Sergio, had hooked up with Ethan, even causing Sergio to be so embarrassed at the party.
If Kylie did not embarrass herself, Salma could not vent her frustration.
Kylie, with a calm tone and a smile on her lips, said, “You bought the gown for me. If you don’t want to make things difficult for the waiter, I can take it back and throw it away.”
Salma’s face changed instantly.
Kylie had to bring up the origin of this gown.
“The gown is dirty now. You probably would not want to stay at such an important event wearing it. That would be disrespectful to the host. Salma insinuated that Kylie should leave quickly.
Kylie’s gaze tightened.

Salma arrogantly turned and left.
She thought that Kylie would definitely leave.
At that moment….
“Hiss!”
The sound of fabric tearing suddenly echoed in the hall.
Salma was stunned.

She could not believe her strapless gown was suddenly torn, exposing her flesh–colored bra to everyone, which humiliated her to the extreme.
Perla stood by, completely shocked.
Seeing Salma’s plight, she chose to stand by and even moved a couple of steps away, clearly trying to keep. her distance.
Salma clutched her chest tightly and turned her head to glare at Joseph.
Joseph, with his bright little shoes, was stepping steadily on Salma’s dress. At that moment, his small face showed innocence as he asked, “Miss, you would not make things difficult for such a little boy like me, right? I’m only six, and I did not do it on purpose.”
Salma turned red from her face to her neck.
This little guy dared to use the same words she had said.
If he wasn’t Ethan’s son, she would have slapped him.
“Miss, your dress is torn. You probably would not want to stay at such an important event, right? That would be disrespectful to Mr. Hayden and my dad.” Joseph blinked his dark eyes innocently.
Kylie could not help but laugh at this point.
Was Joseph’s high IQ inherited from Ethan?
Without seeing it with her own eyes, she would never believe that a six–year–old boy’s reaction could be so quick.
Honestly, she did not expect retaliation to be like this, but it was truly satisfying.
“Oh!” Salma could not hold back and screamed frantically.
She never thought there would be a day when a child would bully her like this.
Jarrett and Rosa quickly rushed over. When they saw their daughter in such a disheveled state, their faces turned ice–cold.

Jarrett quickly took off his suit jacket and draped it over Salma, shielding her from further embarrassment.
“Dad, he intentionally stepped on my gown,” Salma said to Jarrett, breaking down in tears.
Jarrett looked at Joseph, and Joseph innocently looked back at him, unafraid.
Jarrett did not dare to offend Joseph and said coldly to his daughter, “You and your mom go back first. Aren’t you embarrassed enough?”
“Dad!” Salma didn’t want to leave in embarrassment.
“What’s going on?” A magnetic, low voice rang out.
Kylie’s eyes flickered, and she saw Ethan walking over with large strides.
“Daddy.” Joseph saw Ethan and quickly went to his side, complaining, “I accidentally stepped on this lady’s gown, and she insisted it was intentionall
Ethan glanced at Salma.
With just a glance, he shifted his gaze to Kylie, looking at her wine–stained gown, and asked softly, “W
happened?”
As he asked, he took off his suit jacket and gently draped it over Kylie.
Kylie’s heart trembled.
Due to the unexpected incident, everyone’s attention was almost entirely on them. Ethan’s actions were seen by everyone.
The entire hall was shocked.
“It’s nothing. The waiter didn’t do it on purpose. Kylie ignored the surrounding gazes.
“This lady tripped the waiter, and that’s why he accidentally spilled red wine on Mommy’s gown. I saw it very clearly,” Joseph spoke frankly.
“Is that so?” Ethan’s eyes turned cold.
Salma gasped for breath, unable to believe what just happened.
