Ivy, after all, did not put up with anyone following her divorce.
Ken sighed and exhaled a sigh of relief. “Then the clothes?”
Wyatt says, “just send them to Piper.”
“Yes, Sir,” Ken replied.
When the clothing was delivered to the Reed Mansion, Piper’s mood, which had recently improved, suddenly deteriorated. She became irritated, jolted up, and raised her voice. “What exactly is this?! Why am I receiving what Ivy doesn’t want? Am I a garbage can?”
Alice’s face tensed as she observed. She clenched her teeth as she glanced at the expensive clothes, suppressing the waves of wrath that surged from the bottom of her heart.
“It’s okay,” she gently reassured Piper, “Ivy was undoubtedly aware that she had not paid for goods and was too embarrassed to accept it. It required a lot of effort on my part to entrust someone with getting the tickets to tonight’s show. Let’s just wear these because they’re appropriate for our identity.”
Piper could only put up with it because the tickets were so scarce. Despite numerous attempts through various avenues, none of the high-society ladies in their circle received an invitation to this fashion show. On the other hand, Hart, the mysterious designer, only did things to her taste.
The ability to obtain invitations to this concert became a status symbol among the elite circle. As a result, Piper was thrilled when she found out Alice had gotten them tickets.
Piper planned to share a picture on social media once they got into the fashion show so that others would envy her.
I must be the most beautiful person there! Piper pondered.
Alice understood that going to this event was Piper’s goal, so she sought out her uncle. The latter contacted Duke Elrod and sought out Lawrence Albert’s former colleagues to obtain these tickets. Alice exploited all of her contacts and put in a lot of work to impress Piper Reed as a stepping stone into the Reed family.
This unique private fashion event was hosted in a magnificent manor with stunning and lavish decor.
The guests could see the Milky Way and the bright sky above them as they entered the site. It was awe-inspiring because they felt as though they were in an enormous universe.
Sebastian trailed Ivy and Windy, then glanced about in awe. “Hmm… Not bad!”
Ivy rolled her eyes at him and raised her chin in respect. “There’s no doubt about it! Only three people from the entertainment industry were invited, and you are one of them.”
“I’m very honored,” Sebastian remarked, smiling. His looks were even more endearing and deep.
“Ivy!” Agatha approached. When she noticed Sebastian in the rear, she paused for a bit before greeting him with a smile. “Greetings, Mr. Celebrity.”
Sebastian clenched his teeth. “Agatha, do you intend to rule the fashion world?”
Agatha flushed slightly and giggled while bowing her head. She then raised her head to face him. “Mr. Celebrity, you’re a talker.”
Sebastian laughed. “You don’t remember my name anymore?” he tormented her by putting his hands in his pockets in a leisurely manner.
Agatha’s grin widened. When she stared at him, her eyes were glistening. “Are you pulling my leg, Sebastian?”
Sebastian laughed contentedly. “I’m just having a good time. Come on, Windy, let’s sit-“
“I’m gonna go with Ivy,” Windy interrupted, making Sebastian grin.
“Go ahead. I’ll just sit anywhere,” Sebastian said.
Agatha nodded and returned her focus to her friends. “Let’s go get ready,” she remarked, holding Ivy’s hand, and Windy followed.
Ivy and Windy were blinded by the beauty of their surroundings and failed to notice Agatha’s anomalies.
“This is breathtaking! Your work hasn’t even been out yet, and it’s already a success!” Ivy couldn’t help but compliment her.
Agatha arched her brows and stared blankly at them. “Speaking of which, you two are my partners, but you’re not doing anything to help, huh?”
Ivy would have forgotten she was a partner if Agatha hadn’t mentioned it. Agatha needed money when she first started Embrace, so Ivy and Windy contributed and didn’t want it back. As a result, Agatha made them both stockholders. Even though they didn’t have many shares, they were still Agatha’s partners by name.
Agatha clapped her hands in delight after having the three custom-made gowns rolled out on a rack draped in a covering of white tulle. “Put it on.”
Ivy rushed to open it. Their eyes were filled with awe when they saw the outfits, and they audibly gasped.
“The show’s theme is Celestial. Even though it is gorgeous, the classic galaxy design has become a clich?. Celestial, my concept, strives to demonstrate the vast possibilities for women. We can dress up as princesses, queens, knights, or whatever we like. Each outfit has a distinct constellation. As long as women exist, we will shine brightly like the millions of stars in the galaxy.”
Agatha smiled contentedly as she picked up the lovely white satin gown in the center. The off-the-shoulder style was covered in randomly spotted blue and purple Baby’s-breath flowers. The fishtail hem was adorned with dazzling dark purple pearls that shone in the light with a strange aristocratic aura.
“This is specifically for you, Ivy. Please put it on. It’s the centerpiece of the Cassiopeia Collection.”
Ivy eagerly accepted it. This gown was even more lovely than the one she had seen earlier today when shopping in a luxury brand store.
“This is from the Gemini Collection, and I’m gonna wear it,” Agatha said.
Agatha took her gown, and they proceeded into their dressing rooms to change, leaving Windy on the outside, waiting for them.
When they first appeared, everyone couldn’t stop admiring Ivy’s gown. She was gorgeous. The garment had a plunging neckline in the front, but Baby’s Breath flowers covered the crucial areas, adding to its divinity.
The fitted-waist style emphasized Ivy’s slim shape. The floor was touched by the long skirt decorated with dazzling purple pearls. The entire constellation appeared to be wrapped across her torso.
“It’s really stunning!” The employees on the side couldn’t help but notice Ivy’s clothing.
Windy, too, was taken aback by Ivy’s reaction. Ivy’s outfit exuded grandeur and grace, especially when she smiled.
Agatha’s eyes widened, and she instantly directed the makeup artist to finish Ivy’s look. “You need to be the finale,” she added as she patted Ivy on the shoulder.
She didn’t even give Ivy a chance to respond before turning to the crew and instructing them to rearrange the sequence.
Ivy was taken aback. Windy laughed and approached her. “Yes, that’s fantastic! Our princess Ivy deserves to be in the spotlight!”
“I’ll glide for the start of the show,” Agatha uttered.
Agatha then left the organizer in charge backstage and walked to the front to check how her show was received.
All of the visitors had arrived. After exchanging greetings, they sat calmly in their seats, waiting for the opening walk.
Aside from the illumination on the runway, the surrounding area was pitch black, making it difficult to recognize people’s faces. It was created in this manner to offer the best possible experience for the attendees by discouraging them from conversing with one another throughout the show.
The music had already started, and everything was going smoothly.
Even though Agatha was given little notice to do the opening walk, she was not nervous or concerned about failing to owe to her natural confidence.
She was stunning, so the instant she went out onto the runway, she drew everyone’s attention and created quite a stir in the audience below.
The crowd’s awe at her appearance and evaluation of her made Agatha very happy. She then went calmly off the stage.
Agatha cast a gentle glance over her shoulder and noticed the two women seated in the second row. Before she disappeared backstage, the corners of her mouth hooked up seductively.
The audience was uneasy, anticipatory, and afterward enthralled by the fantastic subject, which was absolutely phenomenal.
Everyone held their breath as they watched the performance, determined not to miss any of the designs.
Agatha skipped up to the second level in search of Ivy, whose long hair had been pushed back to reveal her long and slender neck. She looked stunning. Ivy was in no hurry because it was still too early for her to go onstage.
“Can you guess whom I saw?”
Ivy raised her chin with a stern glare. She had long been aware of Piper Reed and Alice Perez.
“What are they doing here?” Windy glanced at them with contempt. “Whatever. We’ll talk about it after the show is over,” he said.
Of course, the show was the most important thing.
