CHAPTER 48

Anna moans in utmost delight at someone telling her she is beautiful. 

Or so she thought.

"Thank you very much. You're too kind..." She takes a bold sip from her champagne glass and wants to continue her speech, but then she sees that eyes are not focused on her like they were before but instead are looking behind her.

She looks confused and turns fully around to see what's grabbing all their attentions.

She gasps.

"That bitch," She mutters under her breath

Behind her, Akeelah enters in a beautiful red gown and golden stiletto heels. 

The rosy red gown with a low neckline, revealing just enough and yet very sexy. It is floor length and still falls past her heels and sweeps the ground in a silent and comforting whoosh exuding elegance.
