“Well! I will pay attention.”
I was so excited because I was finally able to accompany Sean to the party.
He said it a few times the other day, and now he must be happy to see me like this!
While Jessie was packing, Sean came back.
The moment the man came in and saw me, he froze.
I walked in front of the man with a smile, took the initiative to hug him, tiptoed and kissed his lips. I blinked, “Am I beautiful?”
“Beauty.”
He responded quickly, bowed his head, and tried to kiss me harder.
This perfect face was Jessie’s hard work in the afternoon. I couldn’t let Sean ruin it. I quickly pushed the man away and said nervously, “Don’t ruin my new skin.”
Jessie coughed behind us and he told Sean again just to be sure.
He nodded, “okay.”
I chose my dress and sat in front of the mirror, looking at my face over and over again, and indeed, as Jessie said, I could only smile, and if I laughed so much, I could clearly feel the asymmetry between the two faces.
But it’s okay. I will take care of it.
It was just one night.
I told myself in my heart.
At night, the banquet was about to start, and when Sean and I went out, Eric was waiting outside.
Eric looked at me and smiled. “Miss Carter is very beautiful today.”
“Thank you.” I smiled faintly.
I was very relaxed all the way, but when I got off the elevator, I saw that I was going to the entrance of the banquet hall and saw people wearing gorgeous dresses inside.
They were all normal makeup, only I had a fake face...
At this point, I suddenly became very nervous.
At this moment, Sean’s arm was wrapped around my shoulder. He leaned over and said, “Don’t worry. I am here. Everything will be fine.”
I knew that since standing here, there was no reason to shrink back.
We were standing at the door when someone saw us.
Two men came out to say hello, “Mr. Jessop.”
Their eyes fell on me. One of them said. “Oh, Sean is bringing a girl companion! Why didn’t I see you out the other day?”
Another answered, “If you bring such a beautiful girl, would you be willing to take her out? Of course you have to hide her.”
“You are right.”
“Sean, Your girl is so beautiful!”
Both were flattery.
But what they said was just treating me as Sean’s one-time girlfriend.
I didn’t mind it myself, but I heard the low voice of the man beside me, “She is my fiancee.”
A slight displeasure in the voice.
As soon as this word came out, their faces showed a surprised expression, “Fiancee! Remember to call us when your get married, and we will bless you well.”
They left after speaking.
They left and my heart was relieved. I felt like I haven’t had a problem with this face for one night.
Later, a lot of people came to say hello.
Sean introduced me to everyone as his fiancee.
