Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 169

After that night, Jenny felt like she had crossed a hurdle, and wanted to live a good life with Luke. What happened afterwards would be left for the future. When she woke up the next day, Luke had already left. A note was left by her pillow, reminding her to eat. The Luke Up Group had recently been too busy with the merger and acquisition, so she had no chance of meeting him for a few days after that.

On the day of the birthday banquet for the son of the HY Group’s young master, Jenny finally got changed and attended the event.

Daniel had been waiting at the entrance. The moment he saw Jenny, he wished he could poke his finger into her skull, "Well, my lady, is it you who are asking for my help or is it me who ask for your help? You know what time is it now? If I didn’t go in to dress Mrs. Sapphire up, these socialites from the high society would eat me alive!"

"It is all my fault. Let’s go. Hurry up."

Jenny urged him repeatedly. Before she moved on, she looked around the entrance and didn’t see Allen. She got butterflies in her stomach and felt uneasy and anxious.

After they entered the banquet hall in the hotel, Jenny didn’t want to follow Daniel around, but Daniel had been dragging her and wouldn’t let her go, for fear that something unexpected would happen to her. Finally she was dragged into the dressing room.

The dressing room was furnished in a European style. The first things that caught the eyes were those pieces of white and golden furniture. This hotel belonged to the HY Group. Once entering the dressing room, they saw Mrs. Sapphire, who was in simple loungewear, sitting in the sofa impatiently, while a few luxuriously dressed ladies stood next to her, keeping her company.

Mrs. Sapphire’s face brightened up at the sight of Daniel, "Finally you’re here. Come on and help me choose a gown. The dinner party is about to start."

Daniel immediately went to the gowns.

Sapphire got a glimpse of Jenny from the corner of her eyes and frowned, "Daniel, who’s she?"

"Oh, she’s my assistant. She’s here to help."

"She looks familiar…"

Jenny’s heart missed a beat. She deliberately put on no make-up today. She was wearing baggy clothes and a hat, so she thought nobody would recognize her.

Although Sapphire and Allen were old acquaintances, Sapphire didn’t know Jenny because it was Allen who had turned up for the Jin family’s activities all those years. The outsiders only knew that there was a lady in the Jin family who didn’t like showing up in public, but few knew that Jenny was from the Jin family.

"She has a popular face and is far from being familiar. Mrs. Sapphire, how about this gown? Open back is on trend now."

"OK. Whatever you say!"

Sapphire’s attention was distracted by Daniel soon and she threw herself into Daniel’s style design.

When Jenny was wandering around in the dressing room, someone came in suddenly to look for Sapphire. In a suit, he looked like an assistant.

"Mrs. Sapphire, Allen’s here."

On hearing the name of "Allen", Jenny was startled. She turned to Sapphire and stared closely at her.

Her face changed unsurprisingly, "Why is he here? Throw him away."

"But…" The assistant seemed a little bewildered. After a while, he said, frowning, "But Mr. Lachlan Hopkins has already seen him and thus let him in. He said that he is a guest after all. Since he’s here, we should treat him properly."

Sapphire’s face turned pale immediately as if she had heard something terrible. She urged Daniel, "Are you done? I have to go out once you’re done."

Daniel was putting her hair in an tight updo. After pinning the hair with the last hairgrip, he was done.

Sapphire seemed to be in a hurry to leave. Daniel asked someone next to him, "What happened to Mrs. Sapphire?"

Gathering up her skirts, a lady who had been watching aside sat on the seat which had been occupied by Sapphire, and touched her own hair.
