Chapter 47~ The lucky lady.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye and the night of the launch party finally arrived.

The hall at one of the biggest hotels in the city was decorated in golds and dark greens. Chandeliers with dangling crystals hang from the ceiling, casting a mesmerising golden glow over the place.

Lora smiled at the man beside her and hooked her arm to his when they arrived at the venue. The moment the two of them stepped through the double golden doors, silence fell over the place and all eyes turned towards them. "I think Miss L just made a grand entrance," Jason remarked as he led Lora inside.

Almost everyone was looking at Lora in awe. She looked so breath-taking in the one-shoulder sapphire gown she wore that fit her like a glove. It had a thigh-high split with a corset bodice, shaping her figure.

Her hair was styled in a slick low bun, her face glowing with light makeup and a daring cherry red lipstick.

People couldn't help but greet and compliment Lora about her work.

"Miss L, I'm so honoured to meet you tonight. You're the most talented designer in our city," someone said, eyes sparkling in admiration. "I'm a fan of your work."

"Thank you so much," Lora replied politely, smiling as they made their way through the crowd.

"Good evening, Miss L, Mr Anderson, you two make a good match," another one said when he stopped Lora and Jason to greet them.

Lora smiled warmly and Jason replied, "Thank you, Mr Carson. I'm the happiest man to have Miss L as my woman and partner tonight."

He placed his hand on the small of Lora's back and led her to their table. As they proceeded, Lora felt a burning gaze on her. She whipped around and saw Ryan standing on the other side of the room, his eyes fixed intently on her. He looked smouldering in an all-black suit. His gorgeous dark locks were styled into a slight quiff, enhancing his handsomeness.
