Chapter 28 Attending the Banquet At five o'clock in the afternoon, Eric's assistant, Lucas, brought over the evening gown, accompanied by a team of makeup and styling professionals.
The banquet was already very grand, with many prominent figures from Capital City's upper society in attendance. Every reputable company in the city didn't want to miss out on this banquet organized by foreign investors. If they were chosen as a partner, they might soar to new heights.
Among the companies in Capital City, the most prominent were the Davison Group and the Lowe Group. Although the two companies were related by marriage, everyone knew that Kate, the wife of Eric and the eldest daughter of the Lowes, had distanced herself from her parents and brothers ever since she married Eric. She had disappeared from the public eye.
Therefore, there were rumors that the Lowe Group and the Davison Group were always in competition.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was because of this that in the previous life, Ruth and Simon took advantage of the information gap to make Kate believe that Eric was harming the Lowe Group, deepening her misunderstanding of Eric.
But this time... she wouldn't be fooled! Kate, pampered since childhood as the eldest daughter, had always lived in luxury. Her looks, figure, and temperament were all top-notch. When the makeup artists and stylists saw her, their eyes lit up with admiration. Kate's gaze lingered on the several evening gowns brought by Lucas, finally settling on the fiery red long dress. "Just this one." With a lift of her finger, Kate decisively made a decision.
Kate's facial features were outstanding and striking. She had a strong appearance; even without makeup, she was stunningly beautiful at first sight. After carefully applying makeup, her whole aura instantly elevated. Although it was heavy makeup, it couldn't hide Kate's natural charm, but instead complemented it. She was glamorous without being vulgar, enchanting without being tacky, making her shine like a flame.
Paired with the fiery red evening gown, she looked like a queen who had emerged from the flames. Just standing there exuded a strong sense of superiority, unattainable.
The makeup artist and stylist were momentarily stunned.
Kate calmly looked at herself in the mirror.

Her long hair was styled into a bun held in place with a phoenix-shaped hairpin, and she wore a ruby necklace around her fair neck that shone brightly. On her wrist was a matching ruby bracelet, making her look like a phoenix reborn from the flames, proud, noble, and elegant.
It was a style that Kate had never tried before.
With a smile on her lips, Kate's gaze turned to the somewhat dazed Lucas, her voice calm as she asked, "Where is Eric?" Lucas snapped out of his daze at the sound of her voice and immediately respectfully replied, "Madam, please wait a moment. Mr. Eric is already on his way back to Summer Estate to accompany you to the Emperor Hotel" The Emperor Hotel was the venue for tonight's banquet, and it was also the most luxurious and prestigious hotel in Capital City. Any high-class gatherings or banquets in Capital City would choose to be held at the Emperor Hotel.

The back window of the car rolled down, and Eric, dressed in a black suit, exuded a cold and restrained aura. He looked towards Kate's direction, and a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.
He took a deep look at Kate, his voice slightly hoarse as he said, “Get in the car.” Kate smiled and then sat beside Eric, naturally linking her arm with his. "Thank you, Eric, for coming to pickup. I really like the evening gown." Eric glanced at her, but did not pull away, allowing Kate to link arms with him.
As Kate lowered her gaze, a hint of sharpness flashed in her eyes.
She wanted to see how Ruth would frHendrick at tonight's banquet!
