Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 751 Diverting Trouble

The woman remained silent for a while, possibly pondering whether Melanie was attempting to deceive

her.

Melanie took the initiative to explain, “I have an urgent matter to attend to. This invitation was bought online at a rather high price. I don’t want my hard–earned money to go to waste. If you’re not interested, I’ll sell it to someone else.”

As Melanie turned to leave, the woman called after her, “How much? I’ll buy it.”

Melanie simply offered an amount, “Two thousand!”

The woman hesitated. “Will you take fifteen hundred? That’s all I have on me.”

Feigning a pained expression, Melanie sighed. “All right. Fifteen hundred it is. I wouldn’t agree to this price if it weren’t for my hurry.”

The woman handed over all the cash from her wallet to Melanie, who then handed over her work badge without giving the money a second look before chucking it into her bag.

The woman examined the work badge in her hand and was visibly taken aback. “This isn’t an invitation.”

Melanie smiled slyly. “Isn’t a work badge more useful than an invitation? You can get in and out of the show any time you want and gather autographs until your hand goes numb, without having to queue up or stake out to see your idol. You’ve spent your fifteen hundred well.”

The woman said no more. She put on the work badge and headed for the entrance of the show.

Watching her receding figure, Melanie’s lips curled into a cold smirk.

Christina, Victoria, let’s see how smoothly your fashion show will proceed now!

Meanwhile, the backstage was in a whirl of activity.

Victoria firmly refused to allow Christina to help, insisting that the latter supervise from the sidelines. Victoria was caught in a flurry of activities, instructing the models and directing makeup artists for last- minute makeovers. It was a whirlwind of chaos.
