Chapter 476 GOING TO THE LAUNCH PARTY

n0????????????????????????.????0????

ASTRID wanted to touch his hair but stopped himself. It felt like he would hear the voice of Aurora Bliss shouting at him to stop. He was subjected to the other’s ‘care’ for the past four hours. And when he was finally dressed, with all the make-up and the hair done, she kept on reminding him not to ruin her art work. She said it so many times that until now, it kept ringing in his mind.

It kind of made him wish that the other actually didn’t take the job of styling him for this night’s event. When they arrived at the boutique, Aurora still hadn’t decided yet if she would take the commission. But after seeing him, it seemed like he passed whatever test she had and so she agreed to style him for this event.

Astrid was, of course, very satisfied. At least, at first. But when three hours had passed and the other still hadn’t decided what kind of clothes he should wear, he just felt tired. He probably wouldn’t feel that way if he was just sitting while the other was deciding what clothes she should style him with. But no, in that three hours, he had been trying different clothes one after another.

One might think that he’s just exaggerating. After all, how could changing clothes be difficult? But no, if one was not in the same situation, they couldn’t fully tell just how tiring it was. It’s like being fatigued after doing a repeated task for hours. It’s not a very good feeling.

Thankfully, after those three hours, Aurora finally found clothes that satisfied her. The hair and make-up didn’t take too long. Probably because the moment she found the right clothes, she had already constructed an image in her mind. And so, things proceeded quickly after that.

Now, he and Ellis were on their way to the venue of the launch party.

“Are you feeling nervous?” Ellis asked.

This was Astrid’s formal event. It was not just an ordinary event, but something that’s being hosted by a famous luxury brand. Not to mention that he was not just a simple attendee. He was the ambassador of the product that was being formally launched.

Not only he hadn’t encountered any perverts yet, well, besides Lance, probably, the people he had worked with were mostly amiable. He also had Ellis, who was more than ready to protect him from that.

But Astrid knew that he couldn’t be forever lucky. Maybe tonight, something similar to what Ellis said would happen.

He shook his head. It didn’t matter, anyway. Because he would encounter such things sooner or later. So, it didn’t matter if it happened now.

With that thought, he calmly waited until they arrived at the venue of the event.

———-

Tonight, a certain event at the capital had paparazzi and reporters flocked in front of Paradiso Grand Hotel. It’s the launch party of a new product by EMMA which would be held at the sky lounge of the said hotel. It’s an event where celebrities and other important figures from the fashion and entertainment industry would attend.

So, how could they not hang around in front of the hotel to wait despite the cold wing blowing? Even if they froze here, they had to take pictures!

There wasn’t an official red carpet. So, every time someone noteworthy appeared, the paparazzi and reporters scrambled to take good pictures.

It was then that a black flying car stopped and parked in the area designated for guests. The first one to go down was a tall woman wearing a black suit. She walked around and opened the door to the passenger’s seat. The first thing they saw was a white shoe, followed by white pants.

When the person inside completely walked out of the car, audible gasped could be heard all around.
