Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 366

Why would you even ask that?” Zane said, lifting an eyebrow in surprise.

“Seriously, if I’m your niece, why haven’t you told me anything about how things are going with Elysia? It’s had enough that you’re keeping secrets. And then you just go off to find her without even inviting me along?” Alice replied, frustration coloring her tone.

Zane paused, ruffling her hair gently. “If you know you’ll be a bother, then why are you trying to tag along?”

With that, he turned on his heel and walked away.

Alice stood there, watching Zane’s back with her face scrunched up in annoyance. “Zane, that’s so unfair”

Zane didn’t respond, not even glancing back.

The group had left Sivro early that morning and finally arrived in Durinville that afternoon. Instead of going straight to the Hartley residence, they decided to stop at the hotel first.

Zane had arranged everything in advance–a makeup artist and a styling team were ready to work. As they stepped out of the vehicle, they saw a crowd waiting for them outside the hotel.

Seeing them, a guy with thick glasses rushed over and said with excitement in his voice, “Mr. Hartley, welcome! We’ve been waiting for you. Everything is set!”

“Got it,” Zane replied, nodding.

Noticing Zane’s approval, the guy turned to the two women beside Zane and made a slight bow. “Mr. Hartley, Ms. Evans, Ms. Rogers, please follow me!”

He led them inside the hotel, the rest of the group trailing behind.

They reached the temporary makeup room, and Elysia sat in front of a large mirror. A talented makeup artist named Kalinda was about to begin her work.

Alice also had someone getting her makeup done. While the artist wasn’t quite as skilled as Kalinda, she was still doing a good job.

“Ms. Evans, your skin is flawless! So smooth and perfect. You are hands down the best client I’ve ever worked with,” Kalinda said, resting her hand gently on Elysia’s shoulder as she admired her reflection.

Elysia simply smiled in response, not saying much.

Now, Ms. Evans, I’ll go for a light makeup look for you. Just a little touch–up, okay?” Kalinda continued, preparing her brushes.

“Sounds great,” Elysia nodded.
