Chapter 226
Onlookers and reporters once again turned their surprised glances towards Evadne
“My apologies. Ms. Iris I didn’t realize you were waiting for me.”
Evadne was somewhat taken aback, causing the usually calm and composed Evadne to blush a little.
Behind her sunglasses, Iris’s eyes twinkled with a friendly smile. “No worries, you’ve been busy tonight.”
She then draped an arm around Evadne, as intimate as sisters, and grinned at the reporters, “Guys, could you take a few shots of us together?” Evadne’s eyes widened in surprise
Good heavens! What a sight!
The notoriously high and mighty fashion maven, Iris, actively seeking a photo op with someone else
President Ashbourne was indeed extraordinary. Her charm even made countless prominent figures bend over backwards to impress her
The expressions of Glynnis and Edith, the pair of rising stars, crumbled
Especially Edith, who was left in the dust. The humiliation rushed to her head, causing a loud ringing in her ears.
Why? Why?
Did Evadne have honey on her? Was the attracting all these bigwigs like bees to a flower?
She didnt understand!
Despite trying to maintain her composure, Evadne felt her heart was pounding like a kettle that had been boiling for far too long ad she posed for photos with Iris The face she had lost earlier was somewhat regained at that moment.
After the photoshoot, Evadne and Iris found a quiet corner to chat
“Ms. Ins. I really appreciate what you did earlier
Evadnes voice was sincere. “As you saw. I ran into some trouble tonight. By taking a photo with me you showed your support and helped me regain some dignity” “Ms Evadne
1 know I’m hosting this event, and we’re in the same boat. You helped me to ensure the event is successful”
Evadne smiled wryly, fully aware of the situation. “Anyway, I’m very grateful for your help”
“No, Ms. Evadne My assistance has nothing to do with whether or not were working together!
Iris looked at her kindly like an elder it’s because of your brother, Cassius. He asked me to help you as much as possible at this event, to take good care of you.” Evadne’s eyes widened with surprise
Cassius was always such a worrier, always afraid that she’d get bullied. So even if he couldn’t appear in person, he’d make sure to prepare everything for her in advance But Iris’s feelings for Cassius were far from simple!
Cassius, knowing iris had a crush on him and still taking advantage of her, How could he
“Ms. Evadne, I know Ada canceled her collaboration with you. That must have been hard”
Iris adjusted her sunglasses, her expression serious Tve known Ada for many years, and we have a good relat Enship. I talk to her about the wedding planning rights. Hopefully, I can help you more.”
“No, no, no” Evadne quickly shook her head. “You’ve already helped me enought I’d feel quit
helped me any more?
“Are you afraid of owing me a favour, young lady?”
Ins patted her shoulder gently, her tone warm. Don’t worry I’m happy to do this for you, and I’ve never expected anything in return. Cassius must have told you how much I care about him, right?”
Evadne pressed her l*ps together and nodded hard
“You’re Cassius’s beloved sister, an important part of his family. The people he cherishes are precious to me too. I’ve loved him for ten years and never asked for anything in return. As long as he gives me the right to continue loving him, I’m satisfied”
When Iris mentioned Cassius, her eyes sparkled with a burning love.
