My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 708 We Should Leave Now

When it came to styling our hair, time was our enemy. With Troy's performance and the host interaction lasting no more than ten minutes, it was a race against the clock to get ready. Our current hairstyles just wouldn't cut it for the stage.

Emma stepped in with a decisive suggestion. "Renee should go with those long curls. She's got the figure for it, and with her hair cascading down her back, she'll look stunning. May and Serene can stick to their straight black hair, but having two people with the same hairstyle won't make them stand out. Serene can try braiding two plaits and add blue and purple ribbons for a distinctive touch. It'll be a departure from her usual look, and who knows, it might impress Ian. As for Eve, her cute hairstyle should work just fine."

Serene chuckled. "It's not like I'm dressing up for Ian."

"But you can still surprise him! Men love seeing a different side of their partner. It adds some freshness to the relationship. Let me weave those braids for you now," Emma persisted.

Serene commented, "You're still so young, yet you talk like a wise old soul. Where do you come up with these weird ideas?"

Emma smirked. "I guess I'm self-taught."

Among us, Emma was the master at matchmaking. She had a clear vision and always knew what needed to be done.

Most of all, she had a warm heart and genuinely wanted everyone to be happy.

Emma was a smart, kind, and caring little scientist—an admirable girl envied by all.

A few minutes later, Troy's performance came to an end, and the host engaged the audience. With Serene's braids done, we touched up our lipstick and headed downstairs.

In the living room, Kevin and the others were still present. Upon seeing us, Kevin generously praised, "Ladies, all of you look stunning today!"

Christopher was already in the living room by that time.

Emma asked him, "Where are the people you invited?"

"I'll go get them once you guys are ready to go," he replied.

Emma winked at Christopher and followed us out. The five of us stood behind the stage in our sportswear while awaiting the host's cue. Two minutes later, we were informed that it was our turn to go on stage. Stepping into the spotlight, we prepared ourselves. I was still mentally rehearsing the dance moves.

The host addressed the audience, "Do you all recognize these ladies?"
