Chapter 477 You Seem Pretty Excited About This

Linsey let out a light laugh. “You seem pretty excited about this.”

Without dwelling on it, she passed over the invitation. There’s no name on it anyway. Go ahead. With such a huge crowd, she won’t be able to tell who’s who.”

Her colleague’s eyes widened in alarm as she quickly waved her hands. “Linsey, I wouldn’t dare! If Miss Lawson found out, I’d be finished–and you might get caught up in it too.”

Linsey observed her colleague’s anxious expression and was taken aback for a moment.

Carol’s reputation was no joke–everyone seemed too intimidated to take any risks around her.

“Hey, Linsey.” Her colleague shot a glance at the invitation on the desk. “I just realized you’re the same age as Miss Lawson.”

Linsey shifted her gaze to the card, only now noticing that she and Carol were indeed born in the same year. “That’s right,” she acknowledged.

Was Carol afraid she wouldn’t show up?

Well, that had been the original plan..

But now, it seemed she had no choice.

After all, their ongoing collaboration on the dress design project was still in motion. It wouldn’t be wise to strain their professional ties.

Once Carol’s people left, Linsey’s colleagues immediately swarmed around her, whispering with curiosity and

envy.

After finally breaking free from the chatter, Linsey retreated to her office, her gaze landing on the dress box sitting on her desk. A sense of unease crept in.

Why was Carol so determined to have her there?
