Chapter 67: Grand Hill Hall.

Ivy was right. She looked stunning in the open-back black gown-stunning and effortlessly striking.

Monica stepped back, admiring her handiwork. "You're ready to steal the show," she said, pleased with herself.

Ivy chuckled. "Thank you, Monica."

"You're welcome," Monica replied, adjusting Ivy's necklace one last time before stepping aside.

Ivy gave her reflection one final look, picked her small purse, and headed downstairs. She saw Silas seated in the living room.

"Ivy! You look... amazing," he said, his eyes sweeping over her.

Ivy blushed. "Thank you."

He cleared his throat, his eyes lingering on her chest a little longer. "Have fun tonight."

She nodded. "I will." And before she burned further from his gaze, she turned. "Bye."

Outside, Bud was waiting by the car, with its door opened. He was dressed in a black

tuxedo.

"Looking sharp, Bud," Ivy complimented as she entered the car.

"Thank you, ma'am," Bud replied.

Like the showoff Mason had always been, the party was being held at Grand Hill Hall- one of the country's most prestigious venues. The ride was long, and it gave Ivy plenty of time to think, yet she couldn't come up with any concrete plan.

When Bud announced they had arrived, the nerves came in full force. She exhaled slowly, counted backwards from ten before stepping out of the car.

Flashes erupted from everywhere, as paparazzi clamored for the perfect shot. A red carpet had been laid down, and with Bud behind her, Ivy made her way in. "Stay close," she murmured over her shoulder.

The hall was beautiful, decorated in style. She hadn't expected anything less from Mason. She walked forward, where soft music was playing, and guests were mingling in groups.

Ivy scanned the place for Sonia, but she couldn't find her. After a few moments, she proceeded to the small bar to get a glass of wine.

"Mrs Hunter-1 mean, Ivy?"

Successfully unlocked!

Ivy turned to the tiny voice, plasteing a simile on her face. "Jenny," she said flatly.

"What are you doing here? Did Mason invite you?" Jenny's voice dripped with false

concern.
