"Great!" exclaid Iris from the video call, as she saw Elaina ready for the party.
For her, Iris chose Elaina's the for the party as white. According to her, Eliana's fierce and cold personality that she portrayed in front of everyone, went well with white. Black and white, Elaina's wardrobe was decorated mostly with these colored clothes, of different styles.
Anyways, Elaina wore a cream white wrap dress, with lantern sleeves, off the shoulder deep and wide v neckline that ended just above the cleavage, that had a symtrical slit. Because Elaina didn't like a high slit, the slit ended at her mid-thigh. The neckline was perfect to display Elaina's beautiful collar bone, which according to Iris was the best. Her makeup was minimal and cherry red lipstick that went well with the dress.
As for jewelry, Elaina chose pearl drop earrings and a thin pearl drop necklace. Her straight hair was led free to fall and with black t-strap open-toe heels, the look was done.
"Can I go now?" Elaina finally spoke after two hours. She was exhausted, for straight two hours, Iris made her try dresses for nothing.
"Yes, yes, go," Iris said from the video call.
"Let's go, Mia," said Elaina, as she called on to Mia who also ca out from the other dressing room, being dressed. For Mia, Iris chose a straight across neckline, natural waistline black short gown, that went a little below her knees. She put up the nude shade of lipstick and with so makeup, and black pumps, Mia completed her outfit.
The reason why Mia chose heels with less height was that she often had to run errands, and during an ergency, she was more comfortable in low ones.
They both get into the car and then took off to the venue.
The sa night, at the venue of the party
The venue of the anniversary party of Vertex's C.E.O was the big banquet hall which was in the basent of the Vertex Corporation. This banquet hall was made especially for the banquets like this so that the paparazzi can be avoided. The hall was decorated beautifully, similar to a royal wedding, both extravagant and expensive, the banquet arrangents won every guest's heart.
Slowly, the hall started to fill with people, dressed beautifully. Every one of them seed attractive and gave off rich vibes, of course, it wasn't anything to be surprised, as this was the party of the rich. And it was also the reason why there was tight security as well. No one other than the guests were given entry, and it was made sure that no one from the dia was given entry.
The Vertex's C.E.O and his wife were already present at the banquet to welco the guests themselves. Everyone had a companion with them, and the first thing they did was congratulating the couple for their twenty-fifth marriage anniversary, after which, most of the n went to talk for the others, basically related to business, as for the ladies, they engaged in the gossips with the other housewives and ladies.
Needless to say, the topic for single ladies and gentlen was their marriage. It would be safe to say that in a particular conversation, the topic for them to get married would co at least one ti, which made so people uncomfortable and so shy.
The banquet had beco lightly, and Elaina had already entered the venue after her verification was done. As she ca inside the hall, it did' t took ti before she caught the attention of so people.
Straight towards C.E.O Erik and her wife, Mariya Frolova, Elaina ignored everyone. As she was approached them, C.E.O Erik noticed her and then exclaid, "It's, Miss Song."
Elaina gave a little smile and then handing a bouquet of flowers that Mia was holding earlier, Elaina said, "Happy marriage Anniversary to Mr. Erik and Mrs. Mariya. I hope you have joyous days ahead as well."
"Thank you, Miss Song," Erik said, as he turned towards his wife, and said, "Mariya, this is Miss Elaina Song. The representative of the Song Industries," as she introduced his wife to Elaina.
Mariya had a smile on her face, when she saw Elaina, and said, "Nice to et you, Miss Song. It's an honor to have you here."
"The pleasure is all mine, Ma'am," Elaina answered with a humble expression.
"You don't have a companion, do you?" Mariya asked when she noticed that Elaina was alone, to which Elaina answered, "No, I am here with my secretary, Mia."
Listening to this, Mariya had a frown on her face as she said, "Oh my, that is a pity. It will be boring if you enjoy the banquet without any companion."
"It-" before Elaina could reply, Mariya suddenly said, "Ivan! Oh! Co here, son."
"Let introduce you to my son, Miss Elaina," Mariya said as she called out to soone nad Ivan. Suddenly a young man showed up, he had blonde hair, and was good looking, just like his parents.
"This is Ivan. Ivan this is Miss Elaina Song, from the Song Industries," Mariya said as she introduced Ivan to Eliana, as she went towards the other group.
"Nice to et you, Miss Elaina," Ivan said as he put forward his hand for a handshake. Elaina gave a light smile, and taking the handshake, she said, "It's nice to et you too, Mr. Ivan."
"It is an honor to et soone from Song Industries. The Songs have been doing a great job on all fronts, it is truly amazing. I also look forward to our collaboration," Ivan said.
"You are flattering and I, too, look forward to our collaboration, Mr. Ivan," Elaina answered.
"Ivan!" a call from the back made Ivan turn around only to see a young girl standing, maybe of twenty years, she was also beautiful. "What is it, Lisa?" Ivan asked as he turned around to the girl.
"What are you doing here, Ivan?" the girl asked, as she approached Ivan and Elaina. Coming close, she looked towards Elaina and then Ivan, "Who is this?" she asked.
"This is Miss Elaina Song, from the Song Industries. Miss Elaina, this is my sister, Lisa," Ivan said as he introduced both the won.
"Nice to et you, Miss Lisa," Elaina was the first one to say. "Sa here, Miss Song," Lisa answered, and then turning towards Ivan she whispered sothing into his ears, and then said, "I am sorry, Miss Elaina. I will be taking my brother for so ti."
Elaina nodded, "Sure."
"Please excuse us," Ivan said, as both of them took their leave, and Elaina now wanted so ti alone, but it was not anyti soon, as Mr. Erik, called out to her.
"Miss Elaina, I want to make you et with so people. Can I have your ti?" Erik said.
"Sure. It would be my pleasure," Elaina said, and then she and Mr. Erik went towards a group, that had most of the n, and all of them who were businessn.
After introducing many people to her, Mr. Erik didn't seem to stop, and finally, when Elaina had the chance to leave, she heard sothing.
"Mr. Li is here!" Mr. Erik said with a raised voice, which almost had Elaina stop in her tracks.
And soon after that, she heard a familiar voice.
"Nice to et you again, Mr. Erik. And also, happy marriage anniversary to you and your wife," a man's voice ca.
Elaina froze in her place, her mind went blank. It was as if she didn't know what to do. She didn't have the courage, to turn back and then check if this Mr. Li is the sa as Li Wei.
If he was, then she will be dood for sure, and so the only option is to get out of here, it will be bad. As Eliana took a step forward, she was stopped when Mr. Erik called her na.
"Miss Song, I want you to et, Mr. Li, he is the C.E.O. Of the Li Corporation, that we are collaborating with. And he is the sa person I ntioned when I said that a client from China, said the sa things to as you did," Mr. Erik said with a raised voice, as he called out to Elaina.
'Shit.'
Elaina cursed in her heart, as she bit her lip.
"Miss Song?" Erik said again, as he noticed that Elaina was standing at the sa place without showing any movent.
And after this, Elaina had no other choice, letting her lip that she bit, go, she turned around, with a smile, and celebrating her end.
"Mr. Aiden Li, please et Miss Eliana Song, the representative of the Song Industries," Mr. Erik said.
Till then, Eliana had confird that it was Li Wei, and had surrendered herself to her fate. Trying to not look up, which she was sure, she would see the handso face of Li Wei, but not in a good mood, she said, with her eyes towards the floor, she said, "N-Nice to et you, Mr. Aiden."
