Chapter 044

Outside the Starlight, Lucia got out of the car. When she saw the crowd at the entrance of the venue, she felt a

little scared from the bottom of her heart.

The red carpet was laid from the entrance to the street and there were quite a few media reporters at the entrance. That was a much bigger scene than she had imagined.

“Do you want me to go with you, Madam?” It was only when Burton’s voice came from behind her that Lucia came back to her senses. She turned her head around gently. “No, I can do it myself.” She was simply interested in this exhibition, so she would leave after having a look at the jewelry and whatnot. After all, she wasn’t used to such an occasion.

In her high heels, she stepped a lot more slowly than usual, which added a bit of elegance. At the entrance, the receptionist put a bracelet on her wrist when she showed the invitation.

Once inside, the silver Starlight Hall came into view. The silver-gray irregular walls made it more artistic,

spacious and bright. There were already a lot of people gathered there. Many transparent showcases were placed on both sides, which extended in parallel to the largest jewelry

showcase.

Lucia was excited and began to admire the jewelry in the showcases. Although she had never bought much jewelry growing up and had little knowledge of jewelry, she could not help but be impressed by the shiny and beautiful designs. She just finished half of the tour after quite a while, but her feet hurt from walking in the nearly 10 cm heels, so she went to the rest area on the other side.

The rest area and the exhibition area were separated by long tables, on which were exquisite refreshments. Lucia picked up a glass of juice and hesitated, looking at all those refreshments.
