Chapter 282 A Game of Cat-And-Mouse
 
After saying that, he passed her a very pretty invitation card. “This is Designer’s Night organized by a few influential and seasoned designers in the country, and there should be quite a few new designs on this show. Later, accompany me to this event to have a look.” Lowering her head, Elise studied the card in her hands, which had a familiar name on it. Designer’s Night was considered as the source of fresh ideas for domestic fashion designers.

 

It may appear as a fashion show, but in private, the audience under the stage could make a bid according to the number on the model and win themselves the chance to meet and chat with the designer about the philosophy behind the design. To put it simply, it was an exchange of design inspirations. At first, Elise wasn’t very interested in it, but she didn’t want to turn Brendan down, so she followed him along. She felt much better when they received a mask at the entrance of the venue; hidden underneath the mask, so much hassle could be eliminated because nobody would know who the other was.

There weren’t many points of the show which surprised Elise. In the end, she picked a design which was kind of to her liking, then she wrote down the serial number and price before leaving the show early to go to the bathroom. When she came out, a man was standing at the door with his back facing her. At first, she thought that he was one of the models, but when she saw the mask strap around the back of his head, she realized that he was also an invited guest. Her gaze stopped on him for a couple more seconds before she looked away and prepared to leave.

When she passed by the man, he suddenly extended his arm and blocked her path. “Is anything the matter, sir?” she asked. Taking a step forward, the man stood in front of her and didn’t beat about the bush either, as he went straight to his point. “Nothing. I just wish to see how the lady who has the same tastes as me looks like,” he said, reaching out his hand to take off her mask. Out of reflex, Elise stepped backward, but the man pushed his luck and came in closer until she was leaning on the sink. With no room left for Elise to retreat, he placed both of his hands on the sink, trapping her in between.

 

On the other hand, Elise, who had nowhere to go, felt a wave of disgust over her chest. By using his male physical advantages to subdue a woman, this man had really pushed her button. “Sir, please watch what you’re doing.” Clenching her fists tightly, Elise suppressed her urge to strike him. “I didn’t mean to snatch anything from someone else and simply wrote a price. If you would like, you can meet with the designer.”

Although it was almost unnoticeable, it was especially glaring to Elise’s eyes. She recalled that she merely wrote 1,000 as the bid half-heartedly, but this guy couldn’t even out-bid her. In his eyes, the designer’s inspiration isn’t even worth 1,000? Everyone who was invited here is either rich or wealthy, and yet, he’s so stingy with his bid and even has the cheeks to make a fuss about it. Unable to hold it back anymore, she snorted and said sarcastically, “Let me guess: A well-dressed gentleman such

couldn’t do that. So, he could only keep her outside and watch in annoyance as unwanted characters kept approaching her. Worried that Elise might read his mind, he quickly gathered his emotions and changed the topic. “The man who blocked your path earlier has some issues with me on a project. That guy is insane, so stay away from him and don’t accidentally get yourself hurt.” This is such a small world, Elise thought.
