“Have you prepared your clothes for the banquet?”
“Clothes?” Naomi took a sharp breath. She had completely forgotten about it after busying herself with her thesis the entire day.
“Just from your tone, I can tell you didn’t prepare anything! However, someone asked me to prepare a present for you,” Susan said mysteriously on the phone.
“A present? From who?” Naomi thought about it in detail. Other than Susan, she had already cut off contact with the rest of them.
All that was left were scumbags like Gary and Scott, it was already great if they weren’t trying to harm her.
Who else would give her any presents?
“It’s a secret, you‘ll know when you‘re here. I’ll have the driver pick you up!”
Before Naomi could ask any more questions, Susan hung up the phone…
At eight that night, in West City Hotel, a long red carpet extended from the entrance of the hotel to the hall.
Both sides of the carpet were filled with media members and cameramen. They fought against each other as the flashes lit the whole place white.
Luxury car after luxury car stopped, and each person who walked down were famous people that were dressed up incredibly well.
Everyone had made sure to look their best to attract more cameras and be the focal point.
A red carpet of a fashion banquet was naturally filled with hundreds of beautiful people, all fighting to stand at the top.
However, that scene ended after Naomi appeared!
As her luxury car slowly stopped and the car opened, the entire red carpet fell silent.
She had a deep blue gown with sparkling stars on, and she slowly walked out.
Her gown flowed with the wind, and the diamonds that were stitched on it shone like stars littering the night sky
It looked like a whole galaxy was on her gown!
Her clear eyes shone like the brightest stars in the night sky. It was enough to capture and bewitch anyone’s soul!
Without any prompting, all of the cameras turned as they pointed at Naomi, as if it was her own personal fashion show!
“Madam, can you please give way, you‘re blocking my view of a beauty!” Clarissa, who had been doing her best to put on a show in front of the cameras found her smile frozen stiff.
That nasty journalist called her madam!
Looking again, she noticed that every camera in front of her had moved away. Not a single one of the numerous journalists present was interested in her.
Naomi!!!
Clarissa’s eyes were filled with rage. Her looks that she had prepared for over a week had been outshone by Naomi just like that?!
“Clarissa, has your father gone mad? Why did he buy such a nice dress for Naomi?” Clarissa’s good friend, also a famed socialite in the city, Sherry, had a jealous look on her face.
“I don’t know either. My father’s already stopped all her cards, I don’t know where she got the money from, “Clarissa shook her head in false innocence.
She glanced at Sherry and deliberately said in a doubtful voice, “That gown that Naomi is wearing, what brand is it? Why have I never seen it before?”
With those words, Sherry let out a sinister smile.
Naomi generously made sure she catered to every camera but was still passionately asked to stay by the cameramen.
Unfortunately, Susan suddenly had something pop up, and could not attend. So she was forced to appear alone and ended up being the last to arrive.
The entire hall was packed with people, she did not even know where she was to sit.
Naomi took out her phone, and had been about to give Lucy a call when a sharp voice was suddenly heard from nearby, “Hey, it‘s such a prestigious banquet, and someone wore some cheap goods over! How embarrassing!”
“That‘s right! Don‘t come if you don‘t have the money to buy any branded goods, it‘s so humiliating now th we’ve seen through it! Hurry up and go home!”
Naomi looked up and saw Clarissa with Sherry, leading a few socialites over as they looked at her with disdain.
“Naomi, this is a prestigious fashion banquet, how could you just casually buy some cheap gown?” Clarissa had deliberately emphasized the word cheap, revealing to everyone that the gown was not worth anything
Naomi’s eyes narrowed slightly as she glanced at everyone. She was being bothered already?
