Chapter 14
Sarah's POV.
Later that night, as I sat on my balcony overlooking the city lights, I thought about Wesley's offer. He had come into my life just when I needed someone, a guiding hand in this vast, unfamiliar city.
It felt almost too good to be true, but I pushed that thought aside. I couldn't afford to second-guess every opportunity. Not now, when things were finally starting to look up.
For the next few days, I threw myself into work with renewed energy. I followed up on Wesley's suggestions, refined my business plans, and started preparing for the upcoming mixer. The more I worked, the more confident I felt. Madrid was beginning to feel less like a foreign land and more like a place where I could belong.
The day of the mixer arrived, and I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my dress.
It was a simple yet elegant outfit, something that said I was here to make an impression but not trying too hard.
My stomach fluttered with nerves. This was an important night, a chance to really make some headway.
Wesley picked me up, looking sharp in a tailored suit. "You look great," he said as I got into the car.
"Thank you," I replied, trying to steady my nerves.
He gave me a reassuring smile. "Relax, Sarah. You're going to do just fine. Tonight is about making connections. Just be yourself."
I nodded, taking a deep breath. "Okay. Let's do this."
The mixer was held at an upscale venue, and the room was filled with well-dressed people mingling and chatting.
Wesley guided me through the crowd, introducing me to key figures. I listened, shook hands, and engaged in conversations, following his lead.
As the evening went on, I started to feel more at ease. People seemed receptive to my ideas, and Wesley's presence by my side made it easier to navigate the room.
He knew exactly when to step in and when to let me take the lead, striking the perfect balance.
By the end of the night, I had a handful of new contacts and a sense that doors were beginning to open.
