Chapter 277

Vincent, still angry, showed no willingness to accompany her to the evening event.

Attending such an event with her background would certainly be awkward if her connection to the Wellington family was recognized. Stephanie thought Vincent had a point but was still determined to go.

StephForce texted: [Molly, are you free tonight?]

She called for help on WhatsApp. Going alone to such a business party made her uncomfortable, especially since Dominick had specifically forbidden her from attending such events in the past.

StephForce: [Don’t worry about the evening gown. I’m at a boutique now, picking out a dress. I’ll send you a short video, and you can choose which one you like ]

Stephanie calmly glanced over at Vincent, who was flirting with a salesgirl by the counter.

Steph Force: [Vincent’s paying.]

After a moment, she added: [We’re going to the Gordon Hotel tonight. Everything is free. They could eat and drink as much as they wanted.

The word “free” had a magical effect, sparking excitement in Molly’s eyes. She agreed immediately.

Free! Accustomed to a frugal life, Molly couldn’t resist such an offer.
