Chapter 321 You''re Just


    Making A Fool Of Yourself


    At Collin''s prompting, the room erupted in a flurry of excitement as everyone


    began unwrapping their gift boxes with


    eager hands.


    "Look, it''s wine!"


    "Hey, I got red wine too. It looks so elegant."


    "And mine''s perfume. It smells divine and looks absolutely exquisite."


    It soon became apparent that the gifts were gendered-perfume for the women and red wine for the men.


    Yet, all the items shared an undeniable air of luxury, even withoutbels.


    A few connoisseurs among the group quickly identified both the wine and the perfume as high-end brands, the kind that


    would take most people years of saving to afford.


    Collin, with a modest tilt of his head, addressed the gathering. "I know tonight was put together on short notice, so I just


    picked up a little something. I hope it''s alright; after all, it''s the thought that counts, right?"


    His casual humility in gifting suchvish presents only added to his charm.


    The room buzzed with admiration and a touch of envy at such show of generosity paired with grace.


    "Oh, not at all! We''re absolutely delighted!"


    "Mr. Riley, this is incredibly generous! We love it!"


    Linsey was soon surrounded by a handful of astute women, their praises ringing clear.


    "Linsey, your husband really knows how to make an impression! You''ve both got such impable taste."


    Beth stood alone, conspicuously empty-handed amidst theughter and chatter, feeling awkward and out of ce.


    She watched, her gaze almost fixed with envy, as everyone else around her gleefully unwrapped theirvish gifts.


    It had never crossed her mind that Collin would go to such extravagant lengths for Linsey, splurging to curry favor with the


    others on her behalf.


    The sting of exclusion was sharp; among the smiling faces, she alone had been forgotten.


    He had singled her out.


    As the realization sank in, irritation simmered within her. Struggling to mask her rising jealousy with a veneer of disdain,


    Beth scoffed, "What''s there to be so proud of? These trinkets might dazzle those who don''t know any better, but to me,


    they reek of cheapness. It''s not shocking, seeing as they''re from the Riley family''s ck sheep." Her voice carried a mix of bitterness and forced superiority.
