Christina sat in the car, and the faint scent of agarwood lingered in the air. This scent didn’t seem like a specific perfume, but rather one that could change its fragrance depending on the person’s body. temperature.
At that moment, Nathaniel’s masculine scent came to life.
“Are we going to a party?” Christina asked curiously. Nathaniel hadn’t mentioned it beforehand.
“Banues’ wine party,” Nathaniel replied.
Christina had heard of the name before. The brand was famous internationally, and every year it would hold an anniversary day exclusively for members.
For ordinary people, it was a good opportunity to expand their social circle. But for Nathaniel, a wine. party at this level didn’t require his personal appearance.
Is there another reason?
Christina hesitated and asked, “Is there anything special about this party?”
Nathaniel paused for a moment, then held Christina’s small hand. Her hand was tiny and tender, like a
child’s.
It made him feel like protecting her.
“Back then, my parents met at this wine party. They both love this wine and would attend the party every year,” Nathaniel said placidly.
Suddenly, Christina realized why Julia valued this party so much and even had a custom-made gown. designed.
The reason was that she could see Nathaniel’s father.
From this, it was clear that Julia still hadn’t let go of Nathaniel’s father.
Half an hour later, the car slowly stopped at the entrance of the venue.
Nathaniel held Christina’s hand and they got out of the car before walking into the venue together.
Julia wore a sleek dark blue gown, looking dignified and elegant. She chatted with several wealthy ladies who were considered her old friends from her younger days.
One wealthy lady proudly showed off her gown. “This dress was personally sewn by the designer Kevel, and the workmanship is excellent.”
“I envy you for being able to hire Kevel. Could you introduce him to me someday?” These famous designers were not easy to hire.
The wealthy lady was flattered by their compliments and casually said, “Last month, I offered the designer Ada ten million to make me a dress, but she was unavailable, so I had no choice but to hire Kevel instead.”
The wealthy ladies listened and became even more envious. Who wouldn’t want a custom-made gown?

Julia remained calm, but her heart was disturbed. Christina gave up such a high-paying commission for me?
The image of the girl wearing a mask and embroidering every day in the sewing room flashed across her mind. When she thought of how the girl had deliberately hidden her identity to get closer to her, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Nathaniel walked over with Christina at this moment.
As soon as Julia saw Christina, any positive feelings she had disappeared. She looked Christina up and down and sneered, “It’s good to bring her out to see the world so that she won’t embarrass the Hadley family when interacting with people in our circles.”
Her disdainful tone sounded icy as if no matter how hard Christina tried to please her, she would still be rejected.
Christina wasn’t angry. She replied calmly, “Nathaniel has everything, and I’ve seen everything there is to see in the world.”
Julia’s lips curved into a smile. This brat is quite eloquent indeed!
Suddenly, a figure brushed past Christina from behind, causing the girl to stumble and spill her drink onto Julia’s gown.
