She was tall, and even without high heels, she carried the long dress with effortless grace. The hem brushed against her ankles, revealing flashes of pale skin as she moved.

As she stepped onto the stairs, her foot accidentally caught on the fabric.

‘Do you need help?”

Julian leaned over, attempting to lift the hem for her.

Mia reached down and hoisted it slightly. “No, it’s fine.”

She quickly climbed two steps, released the dress, and strode toward the banquet hall.

Julian was a head taller than her, but her pace was so efficient that he had to walk briskly just to keep up.

The third floor was home to a massive banquet hall, radiating luxury and prestige.

Double wooden doors, intricately carved, stood open over a plush carpet as the servers welcomed the guests.

The scene inside came into view.

Groups of high-society businessmen in tailored suits stood together, while women in expensive gowns fluttered about like exotic birds.

The scent of alcohol and perfume hit her as she walked in.

Mia’s fine brows knit slightly, but her expression remained calm as she entered the hall.

Who is that…?”

When did such a beauty join the Everett business circle?”

in the crowd, some were curious while others were flirtatious.

Amidst the guests, a woman in her forties saw Mia. Her pupils constricted, and her gaze locked onto the younger

woman.

Mrs. Gallagher, who is that?” a socialite standing next to her asked.

Oh, that…” Mrs. Gallagher’s lips twitched. “I’m not quite sure. I’ll go ask.”

With that, she began walking toward Mr. Gallagher.

Before she could reach him, her husband had already started walking toward Mia.

You must be Ms. Carter from Bayview Holdings.”

David Gallagher was dressed in a light gray suit, radiating the mature stability of a middle-aged man combined with the perfect amount of gentlemanly charm.

Mia reached out and took his hand in a polite, half-grip. “Mr. Gallagher.”

‘I didn’t expect Ms. Carter to be so young.”

David retracted his hand politely and adjusted his glasses. The scrutiny in his eyes didn’t fade in the slightest.

‘Before you came to Everett, where did you work in Northbrook?”

Mia kept a faint smile on her face. “I was Mr. Hale’s secretary, and I’ve previously served as a general manager for a

branch office.”

Hearing this, David’s gaze became more meaningful. “Then Secretary Carter and Mr. Hale-”

Before he could finish, Mrs. Gallagher stepped forward and took his arm.

‘David, who is this?”

Interrupted, David shot his wife a brief look of annoyance, but his tone remained calm as he introduced them.

This is the newly appointed Ms. Carter from the Bayview branch.”

Turning back to Mia, he added, “Ms. Carter, this is my wife.”

Mia nodded toward her. “Mrs. Gallagher.”

However, she noticed that Mrs. Gallagher was staring at her.
