Chapter 0090
I folded my lips, resisting the urge to let out a groan as Grace added finishing touches to my make up. She had been adding finishing touches to my make up and dress for the past hour.
“Grace.“I groaned, unable to keep mute anymore. “What are you still doing?!
“Finishing touches.”
“Finishing touches.”
We said at the same time and Grace burst out laughing. “Relax. Didn’t you say you wanted to go late. I’m making good use of your lateness”
“Yes, I wanted to go Kate but now I’m way too late. I bet the event would have ended by now.”
Grandma Doris sent me the invite and it was well past the time stated there. I was now three hours late.
“You’re taking so long on this makeup, I don’t want it to be heavy. What if it rains? To be honest, my butt was already hurting and it felt sore from sitting on the stool, even though it was cushioned.
“It isn’t heavy and it won’t rain,” she muttered absentmindedly.
“Grace” she interrupted me.
‘Finally done.” Grace drew back and smiled at her handiwork, “Now you can stop squirming and groaning,” she met out a small laugh.
I huffed as I stood up from the chair. I pulled up the song flowy gown Grace made me wear and marched to the mirror. My lips parted as I stared at myself in the mirror. Saying I looked stunning was an understatement.
Surprisingly, the make–up she spent so much time on didn’t look like it. It looked like there was barely anything on my face.
I turned to find Grace smirking at me. You like what you see, don’t you?”
Then she walked up to me and smoothed back a strand of hair that had fallen from the messy yet elegant updo she had styled my hair into. Even though the updo looked messy, she had taken a long time styling it. Even to look like you aren’t trying, you have to try.
“I told you it will all be worth it,” she looked at me, a soft smile on her lips.
“What did you spend the whole time doing” I marveled as I looked at myself in the mirror again. There’s barely anything on my face”
Her lips lifted in a lopsided grin, “That’s the magic. Then she handed me my purse and the wrapped gift I had gotten for Grandma Doris. “Now you should get going before the event actually ends.”
She walked me up to the door and held my purse and the gift for me as I put on my heels
I relaxed a bit when I got into the vicinity of the Torres‘ mansion. There were luxurious cars scattered about because the parking lot was filled to the brim with cars. It could only mean one thing, the party must still be in full swing.
