FreeNovelGrace's heart sank. She hadn't expected Joshua to directly make such a request. He knew she couldn't refuse since she was at fault.
Grace forced a smile. "What haven't you experienced before? There's nothing at our little party for you to enjoy." "I'll find it enjoyable if you're there." Joshua glanced mischievously at Noelle. "Don't you want to invite me?" "That's not what I meant." Grace had no choice but to agree. "I'll have my secretary send you an invitation later." Only then was Joshua satisfied. He bid farewell and left briskly. However, his back still showed signs of aging. Noelle was worried. "Joshua's smile is so scary. I always feel like he's hiding something." "You're right. He definitely is." Otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted Celia and returned to Pamore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrace's eyes darkened. She felt like she was caught in a tangled mess that she couldn't sort out.
Amirate had reserved the whole building of the most luxurious hotel in Pamore for its annual party.
From the first floor to the top floor, the entire place was crowded with Amirate employees, followed by celebrities and executives. Grace was in a private room on the top floor. She wore a mermaid dress that outlined her dazzling figure. She stood by the floor-to- ceiling window, watching the luxurious cars lined up downstairs.
"When are you coming back?" she asked softly into the phone.
Xander's warm voice cthrough. "I'll definitely be back two days before Christmas. Mom will be with me." When she heard that, she confirmed the date. Shawn had said Xander had an appointment at the teahouse before Christmas. It seemed to be true.
"Okay, Amirate will be on holiday after today. I can spend twith you when you're back." She only had a few days left before Christmas, and she had to use that tto resolve the issue with Jake.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXander chuckled. "The thof the party tonight is quite appealing-a dance party. Who'll be your dance partner tonight?" She joked, saying, "Since you're not back, of course I'll choose another hot guy to dance with." Xander's voice bechusky as he spoke in a low tone. "You can try." "I'm just kidding." Fortunately, Xander didn't take it seriously and hung up after a few words.
Lydia, who was helping Grace put on Eternal Love, heard the whole conversation. "You two are really inseparable. Truly a couple in love," "Don't tease me." Grace rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on. As she sat down, she called Luke to cin.
"Instruct Ashley to keep a close eye on the artists. There can't be any problems." Joshua had already invested in the rival production company, so his request to attend Amirate's annual party likely suggested a hidden agenda.
Luke acknowledged her order.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the ne door. To Grace's surprise, it was Caleb. He wasn't performing that day and was dressed casually. "Ladies, are you ready?" S Lydia chuckled softly. "Almost. We can go any time." Caleb approached and squeezed Grace's shoulder. "I'll escort you." The dance party was in the evening, so there were meetings to attend vel? during the day. The real party wouldn't begin until a series of meetings concluded. S While Grace busied herself navigating through the crowd, Xander finished signing the last document at Frenda Airport and handed it to Hazel.
He rubbed his temples.
Hazel took the document. "If Ms. Lewis finds out that you worked overtto see her, she would be very touched." Xander had lied when he'd said that he would return two days before Christmas. He had missed the Black Friday gala the last time, so he wanted to make up for it and give her a surprise this time. Xander smiled. He was in a good mood. "I don't need her to be touched. I just want her to be happy." The plane took off and made an arc in the sky.
