Chapter 119
Katherine was used to sleeping early, so she woke up later that day after staying up until two o'clock in the morning.
By the time she opened her eyes, the rays of the sun had already seeped inside her room, brightening it up.
However, a thick layer of clouds masked the initially bright sky in a blink of an eye.
The weather was not that good.
When she felt a little dizzy, she couldn't help but curse herself for sleeping late last night.
Katherine then sat on the side of her bed and reached for her phone.
What flashed on her screen was Alice's new year greeting with an attached gift card at eight o'clock in the morning.
Seeing that, Katherine couldn't help but laugh and send a bunch of emojis to Alice.
Needless to say, Katherine was definitely in a good mood this morning.
Time progressed fast, and it was already noon.
Katherine skillfully cooked pasta for lunch and watched a movie afterward.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, she received a message from Anthony, saying he would pick her up at six o'clock.
After reading his message, Katherine turned her head to her window and saw how bad the weather was.
She then got up and applied a face mask to hydrate her skin.
After all, she and Anthony had a deal, so a bit of preparation was still necessary for tonight.
Katherine had a lot of experiences when it came to meeting elders or a man’s family.
However, none of them turned well.
The elders of the Colburn family didn't like her, so it could be said that none of her previous experiences would come in handy right now.
The fact that Katherine and Anthony weren't real lovers made the situation way different from before.
It relieved her of a tremendous amount of pressure.
All she had to do was behave timidly and look presentable in front of them.
Katherine couldn't care any less whether Anthony's godmother would like her or not.
Katherine ate two pieces of toast before leaving, afraid that she wouldn't like the food on tonight's dinner.
When she was ready, Anthony came to pick her up on time at six o'clock in the evening.
Katherine was wearing a beige dress topped with a coat and paired with boots.
They were bought from various brands like Lumineux, Beryl, and Ardeur.
Katherine even got an ivory-colored chain bag in her hands, which added elegance to her look.
She was wearing light makeup, but her lips were as red as cherries.
It was simple yet ladylike, which most of the elders usually liked.
Even Anthony was stunned upon seeing Katherine because she looked utterly different from yesterday.
Last night, Katherine looked too sexy and daring, but now, she seemed mesmerizingly sweet.
Nevertheless, she was able to pull off the two contrasting styles.
"You look gorgeous “ Anthony uttered, unable to take his eyes off Katherine for a second.
He opened the car door and placed his hand on top of Katherine's head, allowing her to get in without bumping her head on the car's window frame.
What he did and said immediately made Katherine smile.
"Thank you.I hope your godmother will like me.”
"Well, she will! She likes good-looking people” Anthony replied.
Katherine looked at Anthony indifferently and did not answer.
The latter then slowly drove out of the villa.
Half an hour later, the black Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of a tall white gate.
"We're here.Are you nervous?" Anthony asked as he parked the car. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Katherine unbuckled her seat belt before facing him and answered, "Would it be too unprofessional to say that I'm not?"
Anthony was stunned for a moment, but he immediately smiled after composing himself.
He said, "Well, I want you to be honest with your thoughts more."
He got off the car as he spoke.
Then, he walked around and opened the passenger seat door for Katherine.
Katherine followed him to the gate of the villa.
Anthony rang the doorbell, and not long after, a middle-aged man ran out to open the gate.
"It's me, Uncle Jake’’ Anthony greeted happily.
"Mr.Jordan!"
Jake exclaimed in surprise.
"Is she your girlfriend? God! She's stunning!"
Anthony did not deny it and proudly introduced him to Katherine, saying, "This is Uncle Jake, the most loyal servant of my godmother.He has been here for more than thirty years!"
After that, Anthony added, "Uncle Jake, this is my girlfriend, Katherine"
Katherine smiled politely at Jake.
She even lowered her head a bit as she greeted, "It's nice to finally meet you, Uncle Jake."
Upon hearing that, Jake smiled back at Katherine and replied, "Oh, please.It's my pleasure to finally meet Mr.Jordan's girlfriend.Hurry up and go inside.Madam has been waiting for you both for a long time!"
With that, Anthony nodded and faced Katherine.
"Let's go ‘’ he invited.
Evidently, Anthony's godmother could not be from an ordinary family.
