Chapter 035 Want an Answer The drama did not affect Hailey’s mood. The fashion charity dinner organized by the magazine “Zero Hour” was held at Grand Veil Hotel. As the leading magazine in the domestic fashion industry, “Zero Hour” had a tremendous influence in the country. The scale and class of their events were getting more and more extravagant. Many stars would fight for an invitation letter from them.

Hailey had an invitation letter, but she did not bring it. Brook took her into the venue. As soon as she appeared, she instantly became the sensation that attracted a lot of attention.

The host was interviewing the stars on the red carpet. The stars smiled brightly at the camera and spoke frankly to the host. After getting enough exposure, they would walk to the front of the photo op to take more photos and sign the board. However, Hailey directly bypassed the red carpet and waved her hand as

a refusal gesture when someone handed her a pen.

Looking at the beautiful woman with an extraordinary aura, the reporters wondered who she was and aimed their cameras at Hailey, but the bodyguards blocked the cameras and stopped them from taking photos. Hailey stood in front of the photo op board with her back facing the cameras

and waited for Brook to finish signing. She asked, “Hey, are you sure there will be porcelain plates? Don’t lie to me.”

Brook handed the pen back to the hostess and walked in with his arm around Hailey’s shoulder. “When have I ever lied to you? Let’s go. I’ll take you to the backstage to see if there are any good stuff. See if you take a fancy to any of them, and I’ll buy them for you as presents.” Before they reached the backstage, they bumped into the chief editor of “Zero Hour”. Brook stretched out his arms and greeted the person, “Hi, Grace!”

Vanessa Kirkland hugged him back and patted his back in annoyance. “You’re

so rude. I’m your aunt! Why are you treating me like one of your buddies?” “But you are my buddy. How is this rude, anyway?” Brook teased. After patting him one more time, Vanessa let go of him and hugged Hailey. “Hello, Hailey. Long time no see. How are you?”

“I’m fine. Grace, you’re getting younger and younger.” “Oh, you two. Can you please stop mocking me?” Vanessa poked at the two mischievous siblings helplessly. Both Brook and Hailey revealed childish smiles.

Vanessa Kirkland, the chief editor of “Zero Hour”, was Brook’s aunt. She watched Hailey grow up, and they shared a close-knit relationship. Therefore, they often hang around in a casual manner.

Hailey rarely attended this kind of public event. This time, she came for the sake of the antique porcelain plates and also Grace. Since Brook was here, Vanessa took him to socialize. Hailey watched Brook leave in amusement. She wouldn’t mind being alone and wandered to the backstage leisurely.
