Chapter 781 The Proposal

Edward's voice was low and magnetic. "Phoebe, are you free tonight? Accompany me to a banquet."

"What banquet?" Phoebe hadn't heard of the Vanderbilt family hosting any banquet.

Edward's voice carried a hint of a smile, "A very important event for me. Can I pick you up this afternoon?"

This solemn tone made it feel like something big was about to happen.

Phoebe remained silent.

"Phoebe, am I putting you in a tough spot? I just want you to accompany me to a banquet. What are you worried about?" Edward's voice on the phone sounded helpless and tinged with sadness.

Phoebe pinched the bridge of her nose, "Alright, what kind of banquet is it? Do I need to wear a gown?"

"Yes, you do. I'll have someone send the dress over. Phoebe, you will definitely amaze the whole city tonight." Edward hung up the phone after saying that.

Phoebe put down her phone and stared at the darkened screen.

Amaze the whole city?

Not long after, Edward sent someone to deliver the gown. It was a smoky pink long dress, with luxurious diamonds encrusted on the straps, sparkling under the light.

Along with the gown came a makeup team, which Phoebe recognized as the team used by a famous movie star.

What kind of banquet was Edward taking her to?

"Ms. Ziegler, your skin is in great condition, but I'll wash your face first and apply a mask to make it even better." The makeup artist, without giving Phoebe a chance to refuse, pressed her onto the sofa and started washing her face and applying a mask. The whole process took an hour, and simultaneously, someone was doing her nails, not missing her hands or feet.

A group of people fussed over Phoebe all afternoon until Edward came to pick her up.
