Chapter 13 An Invitation to the Jewelry Fair

At the thought of that, Hayley reached for her phone and dialed Elliot’s number.

“Hello, does it still hurt?”

“Elliot, I want to attend a jewelry fair. Can you take me there?” Hayley implored.

“What jewelry fair?”

“Let me show you a video.” Hayley hung up the call and forwarded the video to Elliot shortly before she received a text message that briefly read, ‘Alright, I’ll take you there.’

Hayley exclaimed in excitement but accidentally hurt her swollen cheek in the process. As she hissed in pain, she began to curse Anastasia once again. “You’re a b*tch, Anastasia! You’re a jewelry designer, yet you can’t even attend a high-class jewelry fair like this one.”

On the other hand, Anastasia stumbled across the same video about the jewelry fair in her office and learned from the others who were invited that there were formal dress codes required for the occasion; otherwise, access would be denied. Due to that, she became worried, not knowing what she should do because she couldn’t afford to rent a decent-looking banquet dress.
