Chapter 127
When Audrey left in the morning, Madam Cordova said to her.
"Elliana, don't forget to look for someone suitable for your brother at the party. Also, if there is someone fine for you, don't let it slip. After all, it's still okay if you can get married before your brother. Do you hear me?"
Audrey replied, "..."
"Got it, Grandma."
Originally, it was only Bryson who should go to the party, but Madam Cordova was really worried that the boy would ruin her plan as usual. After all, of all the blind dates she arranged for Bryson, he could always find an excuse to escape.
But if this girl could be there, it would not be so easy for Bryson to run away.
Audrey could not refuse the request so she had to promise that she would be there with Bryson.
"I've already sent someone to deliver your clothes to the hotel beforehand. And you can directly ask the hotel manager for them."
"Alright."
"Alright, that's all. Now you can go to work. Remember, you must keep an eye on your brother. Don't let him leave early."
"Yes, I will."
Audrey still disliked attending such a party, because she didn't like that kind of hypocritical occasion.
As the car was starting, she looked at Bryson next to her with a smile.
"Well, Mr. Bryson, must I go to the party tonight?"
Bryson glanced over her shoulders and said, "If you don't want, then do as you like."
"Alright, I..."
Before Audrey could finish her words, Bryson faintly interrupted her, "If you don't go, the price would be that the Cordova Group will cancel the contract with Square Law Firm tomorrow!"
Audrey didn't reply.
Despicable. Shameless.
...
Because of his threat, Audrey had no choice but to rush to the Peace City Hotel by the evening.
At that time, anyone who wanted to enter the hotel must go through the verification procedure, including the media waiting outside.
Wendy and Audrey arrived almost at the same time.
Just as Wendy got off the car and saw Audrey, she squinted.
Audrey was defending Blair. Was that why she was here?
"A lawyer should have appeared at such a high-profile party? This is not the place for her!"
The minute Audrey stepped out of the car, the media outside the hotel got attracted. They all zoomed in on Blair.
Two days ago, Wendy bribed the actress who had a miscarriage and asked the actress to post a Weibo to clarify her innocence. Hence the rumors about her were suppressed for a while. Although currently Wendy still had other troubles with her, she still could attend a party like this.
Hearing Wendy's name shouted from the crowd, Audrey turned around. She was right and saw Wendy in an elegant blue evening dress.
Wendy's figure was tall and her skin was fair. Her evening dress perfectly disclosed her beautiful back. When she turned around, the cameras behind her snapped altogether.
Audrey only took a faint glance before continuing forward.
Just as Audrey was about to enter the hotel, she was stopped by the security of the Peace City Hotel.
"Miss, please show me your invitation card."
Invitation card...
She did not have one, because Kylee said that when she arrived, someone would come to pick her up. However, it seemed that the picking-up guy didn't show up.
"I didn't have an invitation card!" She said frankly.
The security man frowned and looked at her with ridicule in his eyes. "Do you think this is an ordinary place anyone can get in? Sorry, invitation only."
Audrey frowned but said nothing. She stepped aside, waiting for the person who would pick her up.
Seeing what was going on here, Wendy came up with a cold smile.
And the security man immediately gave her a respectful look.
"Miss Wendy."
She took out the invitation card from her handbag.
"Please."
The security man smiled at her and said, "Miss Wendy, I guess I don't need to bother. Even if you don't have one, you could still get in."
She proudly took the invitation card back.
She looked in Audrey's direction mockingly and then said to the security man.
"This party is really high-profile in Peace City. All attendees are personages. It's certainly not a place for ordinary people."
The security man smiled submissively.
"Miss Wendy, please feel reassured." As he was saying, he looked at Audrey with disdain, "There are some lowly people who want to sneak in without invitation. We will definitely not let them in." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Good."
Wendy walked into the hotel with her proud head in satisfaction.
One after another, men and women dressed in beautiful clothes walked into the hotel. As the security men checked the invitations, they stared at Audrey vigilantly for fear she might sneak into the hotel unnoticed.
But Audrey didn't pay any attention to their hostility towards her.
No matter where you were, some people looked down on you.
About three minutes later, the deputy general manager hurried over.
Just as he walked out of the hotel, he saw Audrey standing outside the security line. And he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
The deputy general manager walked in front of her with a head full of sweat.
"Ms. Elliana, I'm so sorry. I was not feeling well just now and went to the restroom. Sorry to keep you waiting."
She smiled, "I'm fine"
"I am Alan Bayman, the deputy general manager of the hotel."
"Hello, Mr. Alan."
"Mr. Bryson already phoned in. He will arrive in about 20 minutes. Would you mind changing your clothes first?"
"Alright!"
Alan walked forward and Audrey followed.
The security man was busy checking the invitation and did not notice the conversation between the two. As Audrey prepared to get in after Alan, she was caught by the security man.
"Miss, there are rules for today's party. No one is allowed to enter without an invitation. You can't go in. I told you just now. Are you deaf? Why are you trying to barge in? Don't think that you can participate in such a high-profile party just because you possess a bit of beauty!" The security man glared at Audrey.
"Save it. Miss. I've seen a lot of people like you. As long as I'm here, you are not going in!"
She frowned.
However, before she could say something, a cold male voice suddenly sounded from her back.
"Say that again?"
Audrey was shocked and turned around.
The man who was supposed to appear in twenty minutes was standing right behind her.
