She’s Back, and Hell’s Coming with Her novel Chapter 254

But when she opened her eyes, the world around her seemed to have lost all color—everything was washed in shades of gray, cold and indifferent.

She caught a glimpse of her reflection: her face looked ugly to her, marred by scars and bruises.

Tentatively, she traced her fingers along her cheek. The sharp sting of pain reminded her this wasn’t a dream.

She was fully awake, flesh and blood.

A sharp knock at the door shattered her thoughts.

She stood up and opened it.

Hester stood on the threshold.

Today, Hester looked stunning, every detail of her dress and makeup meticulously arranged.

Clearly, she’d spent hours preparing.

Who knew what tricks Celine had planned for today? The anticipation was almost exciting.

“Grandma sent me to check if you’re ready.” Hester’s voice was cool, almost dismissive.

She couldn’t help but steal a glance at Sabrina’s breathtaking face, jealousy tightening in her chest.

Even with just a touch of makeup, Sabrina looked better than she ever could.

Her skin was impossibly smooth, pale and flawless—like porcelain. Not a single blemish, not even a visible pore.

How was that possible? Wasn’t she supposed to have grown up in the countryside?

And that dress. The style was nothing special, but on Sabrina, it looked extraordinary.

The more she looked, the angrier she felt.

It was suffocating.

Better to just leave.

Hester spat out her message, cheeks puffed with annoyance, then turned and stormed off.

Sabrina glanced down at her outfit.

Not overly formal, but still tasteful.

She had no intention of stealing the spotlight today.

Not long after Hester left, Celine breezed in.

She wore a bright, innocent smile.

“Sabrina, today’s your and Hester’s big day. Mom picked out this dress just for you—she’s downstairs greeting the guests and asked me to bring it up for both of you.”
