Chapter 264 A Wrong Path Would Lead You Astray 2.

| thought | would never run into him anymore for the rest of my life. But luckily, | did, again in City A.

But he had changed. | had no idea what he had been through over the years, but | could see that he

seemed more relieved and had moved on from the past.

Seeing that | looked at him and didn’t speak, he smiled gently, “Stop looking at me like that, or...Are you

in love with me already?”

That was funny. | rolled my eyes at him and responded, “But now | can’t move on. If | don’t do it through

the banquet tonight, | am not sure when | will be able to.”

| had to wait at least a year for the Gibson family - Now that Hank was gone, the chances of me being

able to use the Gibsons were almost zero. So the banquet tonight would be my only chance.

Leo looked at me for a while, then nodded, “Okay, I'll help you no matter what!”

Looking at him, | couldn't help feeling warm in my heart. | said with a small smile, “Thank you, Leo!”

It seemed that he had been helping me without asking for anything in return. If it weren't for Leo, the

chances of me bringing down Luna would be bad even when | had had enough leverage in my hand.

He curled his lips, and said with pretentious resentment, “Well, how about you expressing your

appreciation more practically?”

| laughed, “How about | buy you dinner?”

“Just for tonight?”

“Well, how about for the week?”

“Deal!”

We were at the Ace Style Studio and briefly looked at a few sets of dresses and customized pieces of

jewelry. | was never sensitive to fashion designs

and accessories, so | would have to rely on the designer's suggestion.

“You dark circles look bad!” Leo said. He asked the makeup artist to help me put on heavier makeup.

The makeup artist looked at me and said, “Ms. Clara's facial features and temperament are perfect,

and proper makeup would help light up her

complexion. Her nose is tall, her eyes are big and sparkling - If she wears too much makeup, she will

look a bit cold and harsh.”

Leo took a good look at me around and curled his lips, “Fine, just make sure she would look the most

dazzling for tonight.”

| was awkward, “Oh come on, not everyone knows that | am your sister. For those who don’t know me,

they would mistake me as your girlfriend!”

He shrugged and said indifferently, “| don’t care about what they'd think.”

He took out his mobile phone and gave me a signal that he was out to make a call. | had to sit tight the

whole time for the makeup to be done. | almost fell asleep after sitting for such a long time.

The makeup was not very heavy, but just the perfect level to cover up the tiredness on my face. It also

highlighted my facial features so they now looked more exquisite.

The designer matched me with a cyan and gold-trimmed split dress, which made me look elegant and

charming.

Leo came in after a phone call. He feared that we would be running out of time, so he said, “The

banquet starts at seven o’clock, there is not much time left for us. Are you ready?”

Seeing that I was done, he was stunned. After a moment, he coughed and said, “Change to another

one!”

The designer and the makeup artist were very satisfied after seeing Leo’s reaction at first, so they were

all surprised when they heard what Leo had just said.

The designer said, “Ms. Clara looks gorgeous. Her temperament is classical and elegant, this dress

brings that out very well!”

Leo looked at me and pouted, “Didn’t you see that she has a skinny waist and legs? She doesn’t fit in

the dress well!”

I... Was I the only one feeling so awkward here?

I looked at Leo and responded, “Don’t mind him. This one looks perfect. Plus, there is not enough time

for another change.” It was trouble to change dresses again!

He frowned. He glanced at my legs and said angrily, “The dress is almost showing the end of your

thighs. Do you think this is a decent fit for tonight? It’s too revealing, change it!”

I...

I immediately looked down at the dress and saw where the split ends - Well, it seemed fine to me. Leo

was just over-reacting.

The dress wasn’t showing the bottom of my thighs!

“Leo, you are over-reacting. This is a common design, and it is not revealing too much, okay? Let’s

wrap it up here so we won’t be late.

“No, we still have time.” Leo looked at the designer and added, “Find something more classy for her.

She will be showing up at

the banquet as the goddaughter of Mr.Kennedy. Quit using those mature or dull colors. And it’s

wintertime. Find her something that’s energetic and fit for her age; Also, it should be something that

can keep her warm, it’s winter now!”

Leo paused to stare at my face for quite a while, and then he continued, “Besides, don’t pick anything

that’s too sexy.”

I burst into laughter, “Mr. Leo, can you pick one for me then?” This dress was not sexy at all - It wasn’t

revealing too much, either.

Leo snorted, looked at the designer and the makeup artist, and said, “In short, today Ms. Clara has to

be the most beautiful woman, but she can’t wear something too sexy or too revealing, understand?” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

The two looked at each other, then nodded in unison.

A few moments of adjustments later, Leo was finally satisfied. We rushed to the banquet venue,

afterward.

The Kennedys chose to hold the banquet in a private resort area in the southern district of City P. The

venue was spacious and prosperous.

When Leo and I arrived, most of the guests were present already. Link Kennedy was greeting everyone

at the entrance of the hotel lobby with several elders from the Kennedys.

There were a large number of bodyguards and helping staff arranged at the door, considering the big

number of guests which included some reporters and media staff from Kennedy’s businesses.

As soon as Leo and I got off the car, Link saw us and waved his arm to greet us with a smile, “Clara

and Leo, this way!”

I was holding Leo by his arm. Now I was wearing a gown with a dragging tail, which was extra long,

and the high heels I was now were high, so I had to walk slowly.

Leo also slowed down his pace to match mine.

Link was in a great mood. Seeing that we were walking slowly, he trotted over, and said with a smile on

his resolute and handsome face, “My goddaughter is beautiful, in fact, you are the most beautiful lady

here tonight.”

Leo smirked, “Of course, beautiful people like us are surely eye-catching.”

Link laughed, “Son, stop bragging about yourself, haha!”

We all laughed.

Link took me to the banquet hall - Many guests came to greet us. Most of them were prominent people

in City P. Most of the people who were invited here today were from the political circles. After all, Link

Kennedy was an active politician, and his social circle surely were mostly people like him.

Some of the guests were from scholarly families of hundreds of years. I had been married to Dennis for

many years, and I had attended some banquets and events with him, but most of them were for

business.

The guests were almost all present. A long red carpet was spread in the middle of the hotel lobby,

leading to the stage at the end of the hotel.

Dennis came a little late, but he looked handsome and imposing - You could spot him right away in the

crowd at a glance.

He and I looked at each other - I averted my eyes lightly and did not give any response.

However, Leo, who was beside me, frowned slightly, “What’s wrong with you and Dennis?”

I pursed my lips and changed the subject, “Is the Lewis family here?”

“Yeah! They should be here.” He said when he looked at Dennis instead, checking him over.

After all, Newton Town and City P were two different places - One in the north and one in the south.

There were many custom differences.
