Baron Lawrence didn’t give Enna Clark a chance to respond. He firmly gripped her hand and dragged her out.
Enna’s hand hurt from his grip, but without understanding why he was behaving this way, she chose to bear the pain instead of pulling away.
Don’t get angry, she won’t get angry… Bobby was still held captive by him, she couldn’t afford to be angry… She would try her best to reason with him… It would be best if she could appeal to his emotions and convince him with logic to return Bobby to her…
Having made up her mind, the pain in her wrist didn’t seem to matter that much.
Baron Lawrence dragged her to a room on the third floor, then suddenly let go of her hand. His hands tucked in his pockets, he looked cool and aloof. “There’s a celebration banquet in an hour,” he said coldly. “You’ll be attending with me. I’ve arranged for Scott Harris to handle your makeup. Go in. After 40 minutes,
I’ll come to pick you up.”
Baron Lawrence didn’t intend to give her a chance to speak. After saying what he had to, he walked away with a stern face.
Fine, she decided to discuss Bobby’s matter with him after the banquet! But she had never been to a formal banquet before. Would everything go smoothly?
Enna gritted her teeth, ignored her concerns, and pushed open the door.
As expected, about ten people were waiting in the room. As soon as she entered, their gazes fell on her. The leading person responded the quickest. Standing up, he greeted her, “Is this Ms. Clark? Nice to meet you, I’m Nico, your fashion director. As Mr. Harris mentioned, we don’t have much time now, could you please change your clothes first? We’ll begin styling once you’re ready. ”
“I didn’t bring any clothes…”
“Don’t worry about that, Young Master Lawrence already ordered us to bring the dress.”
In the right corner of the room, someone pulled back the curtain, revealing dozens of beautiful dresses neatly hung, waiting for its owner to choose.
“What style does Ms. Clark prefer?” Nico asked, hands clasped together with a charming smile.
Enna responded honestly, “I don’t have any personal styles since I am not much into fashion.”
Nico’s discerning gaze swept over her, confirming she was telling the truth. The clothes Enna was wearing were all bought by herself, they were cheap items purchased online. While her physical appearance in itself was not bad, claiming that she could make a few-dollar cheap outfits look like expensive custom-made clothes was simply a bluff!
“Ms. Clark has a small frame, fair skin, and well-proportioned body. I personally believe you’d suit fairy-like gowns. This one here, what do you think? Do you like it?”
Enna looked towards the dress he pointed out. The misty embroidery on the lake-blue tulle made the dress look as beautiful as a colorful smoky cloud. The dark blue small flowers scattered from the back V-neck decoration made it incredibly striking.
Who wouldn’t like a stunning dress?
Enna took to the dress at first glance, “It’s really beautiful.”
Nico gleefully held the dress against her body, while smoothly flattering, “It’ll look even more beautiful once you wear it.”
‘ Enna wasn’t a fool. She could tell whether someone was genuinely praising or flatteringly insincere. She chose not to respond.
“Then let’s go with this one. Could we have Ms. Clark try it on first?” After Nico spoke, he arranged for someone to accompany her to the makeshift fitting room by the side..
