Luke handed her the box, Serena reached for it, and after opening it, she found a dress in it.
"Put it on and come with me to the party."
Serena said, "But I have a commitment, I have a date with Anna."
After hearing this, Cristian frowned, "These two days you have spent a lot of time with her. Now couldn't you come with me to the party? And postpone the appointment with her?"
"But I made an appointment..." The main reason was that she had an important engagement that evening, but why did Cristian want her to go to the party so badly at that time? It didn't seem like a good solution for her to refuse, so Serena tried to deflect, "Why don't you go in the meantime, I'll meet Anna afterwards and then I'll join you."
"Is it that important?" Cristian suddenly asked.
"What?"
"I'm asking, is Anna more important than me?"
Serena stood still and looked at Cristian, wondering what the problem was. She did not know why, at that moment Cristian's sharp gaze made her feel guilty, he seemed to be able to penetrate other people's hearts.
Could it be that-he already knew things?
Thinking about this, Serena's lips trembled a little, as if she wanted to speak but froze.
After a while she said, "No, it's just that... I made an appointment with you."
"You can't even accompany me?" Cristian frowned and his tone of voice sounded almost depressed.
Serena thought about the person she was to see that evening and said, "I really can't. Maybe another day. Next time you have a party, I will go with you."
Hearing those words, Cristian could not help but say sarcastically, "Next time?"
Then she said no more, Cristian looked at her for a long time and then suddenly said, "Go."
Serena: "..."
Had she allowed him like that? Serena thought it was too simple, but after looking at the time, she realized that it was only a short time before her appointment with Anna.
However, first she had to find out the truth, and then when she returned, if she had time, she would go to the party to find Cristian.
"Then I'll go."
With that said, Serena took a direct step and walked past Cristian. Cristian suddenly grabbed her white wrist and stopped her as she passed.
"Do you have to go?"
Serena lowered her head and looked at his wrist. Cristian's fingers were slender and clear. His palm burned her like a hot iron. She nodded, "I promise ... if I still have time, I will come and find you."
As soon as she stopped talking, Serena felt the pressure on her wrist getting stronger and stronger, but it soon relaxed and Serena was free. She made to look at Cristian's expression and gaze, but Cristian quickly left.
Suddenly disappearing around the corner, Serena looked aside at Luca.
"What happened to him?"
Luca was a little depressed, opened his mouth to say something, but finally shook his head, "Nothing."
Serena: "...Really?"
"Serena, Cristian was hoping you could attend the party tonight."
"I'm sorry, he had made an appointment with Anna, why don't you give me the address so when I finish I can come right away, what time does the party start?"
