She Quit Her Family and Found Herself novel Chapter 245

The cold water cleared the remaining fog from her head.

She needed to get her act together. Today, she had promised Joanna she would accompany her to the ladies' social club.

While this was her first time attending this specific club, she knew exactly what kind of gathering it was.

Back when she lived with the Sterling family, she had heard of these events, though Dobbs had strictly forbidden her from attending. Not that she had any interest in them anyway.

But since she had given Joanna her word, she was going to take it seriously.

Since it was a high-society wives' event, showing up in casual clothes was out of the question.

She opted for an elegant dress, styled her hair, and applied light, sophisticated makeup.

She met Joanna at their designated spot, and together they headed to the venue—a stunning, luxurious Go club.

The entrance was grand and striking. Inside, the courtyard featured winding streams, artistic rock formations, and covered corridors, oozing a refined charm.

A massive jade sculpture stood near the main doors, elegantly carved with a single character for "Grace." Beyond that, there were no flashy signs or plaques.

Hulda followed Joanna inside. At first, nothing felt out of the ordinary. In fact, she immediately loved the aesthetic of the place.

It wasn't until she spotted Hayden waiting in the courtyard that a faint sense of suspicion crept in.

"Joanna, Hulda! You're finally here!" Hayden rushed over eagerly. His eyes lit up when he saw Hulda. "You look absolutely gorgeous today!"

Joanna shot him a playful glare. "What kind of compliment is that? Is she only gorgeous today?"

Hayden chuckled and quickly corrected himself. "Of course not. Hulda is stunning every day, but she's particularly breathtaking today."

"That's better." Joanna beamed at Hulda. Honestly, even she had been floored when she first saw her earlier that morning.

She had already thought the girl was pretty when they met at the courtyard before.

But dressed up like this, Hulda was on an entirely different level of radiant.
