On the eve of the charity gala dinner, Xylia finally managed to finish Gina’s gown just before the deadline.

This ensemble featured a light blue mermaid gown crafted from satin with a pearl–like sheen. The bodice was accented with subtle pleating, further highlighting Gina’s curvy and toned figure. Around her neck was a pearl–sheen silk scarf.

The overall appearance was elegant and dignified; although dressed in plain colors, it no longer seemed too understated.

Gina was very satisfied with this formal attire. “Thank you. I am very pleased with it. I will remit the remaining payment as soon as possible, no later than tomorrow morning.”

“Sounds great.” Xylia nodded.

She hesitated for a few seconds before tentatively asking, “Gina, I am currently promoting my studio through social media. May I record a video of this dress and post it to the first account? Of course, as a public figure, even a single dress might have some impact. If you are unwilling, I will not post it.”

Xylia looked at Gina uneasily.

Unexpectedly, Gina made a sweeping gesture and said in a forthright manner, “It’s no problem. Go ahead and post it. Do you need me to help record a video as well, and I can help you promote it too?”

Xylia’s eyes lit up. “If that’s possible, that would be wonderful.”

They both acted swiftly; Gina assisted Xylia in recording a video.

Xylia said gratefully, “It is my honor that my studio has just opened and already received the support of a renowned celebrity.”

Gina smiled. “I will reach out to you again in the future. Please remember to offer me a discount.”

Xylia laughed. “I will offer you a 90% discount.”

After completing Gina’s order, Xylia immediately collapsed onto the sofa.

She had barely slept that week; each day upon waking, she immediately began working on drafts and handling procurement.

Fortunately, with Josie’s assistance, she was able to complete the gown this week; otherwise,

finishing it within this timeframe would have been highly uncertain.

Josie, with a lollipop in her mouth, walked over and sat down beside Xylia. “This short video was well shot. Once I have edited it, I will post it to our account.”

Xylia watched her work and said, “Remember to send it only after Gina has finished attending the charity dinner tomorrow night.”

Josie nodded. “Of course.”

Xylia was really tired. After saying goodbye to Josie, she returned home.

She had just entered the house when I ran into Kaden, who had just returned.

When Kaden saw Xylia, he beckoned to her and said, “Xylia, I have something to tell you.”

Xylia walked up to stand in front of Kaden. “What is it?”

Kaden said, “Get ready to accompany me to a charity gala tomorrow evening.”

Xylia was puzzled, “Charity gala?”

Kaden nodded. “Since you are starting a business, establishing a network of contacts is essential. At tomorrow night’s charity gala, many leading business figures will be present. If you accompany me and get to know a few more people, it will be beneficial for your studio.”

At that moment, Kaden’s tall figure appeared even more imposing in Xylia’s eyes.

She promptly nodded in agreement.

Kaden continued, “If you have a gown of your own design, wear it; if not, I will prepare one for you.”

Xylia smiled. “I’ll have to trouble you to prepare it for me, Kaden. So far, the only formal dress I have truly designed and completed is still the one for Gina.”

The copyright for the previously created design drawings now belonged to Xavi.

Xylia had not yet properly designed a gown for herself.

Kaden dotingly gave Xylia a couple of gentle pats on the head. “Alright, I’ll get it ready for you. Go get some rest–just look at those dark circles under your eyes.”

Xylia smiled and went straight upstairs.

The following evening, Xylia received the dress that Kaden had prepared for her.

The silver–white strapless gown featured jewel embellishments on the skirt and a fitted waist design that accentuated the waistline.

Kaden also hired a top–tier makeup team to style her, and two hours later, Xylia came downstairs.

Kaden looked Xylia up and down.

Her exquisite face was adorned with exquisite makeup. All her long hair was swept up at the back of her head, with a few loose strands falling gracefully beside her ears, intertwining with emerald–green earrings. Her delicate features and gentle temperament made her appear especially captivating.

Kaden nodded with satisfaction. “Not bad.”

Xylia was also quite satisfied with her

appearance.

She took Kaden’s arm and got into the car bound for the charity gala.

The charity gala was held aboard a cruise ship at a seaside location in Norhill.

When Xylia and Kaden boarded the ship, the banquet had already begun.

The banquet hall was elegant and luxurious, and the guests attending the dinner were either wealthy or of noble status.

As soon as Kaden entered the banquet hall, someone called him over.

Kaden lowered his head and said to Xylia, “The charity event has not officially started yet. Go to the dining area over there and have something to eat. I will come and find you shortly.”

Xylia gave a slight nod, and then Kaden left.

Xylia walked in the direction indicated by Kaden and soon arrived at the dining area.

A variety of desserts and alcoholic beverages were arranged in a row, and even the decorations were inlaid with luxurious jewels.

It was the first time Xylia had attended such a lavish banquet.

It certainly lived up to its reputation as the largest charity gala in Norhill.

A familiar child’s voice came from below. “Mommy? How come you are here?”

Xylia lowered her gaze and immediately saw Sonny standing by her.

face.
