CHAPTER 96 Jealous?

  Now adorned in the dress with flawless makeup, I couldn't help but admire the transformation. Jairalyn's skill with makeup had surpassed my expectations, leaving me feeling genuinely impressed.

  "You look amazing!" she exclaimed with delight.

  "You're already beautiful. I just highlight it because you're trying to hide it," Jairalyn reassured me, her touch on my shoulder comforting.
