Chapter 484

Almost all of the employees of the Rivera Group left when Corinne got off work the following night. She

then went to the restroom to change into the formal wear Lucas asked her to put in yesterday.

After dinner last night, Xante brought Corinne to a concept studio for haute couture dresses. Xante

helped her pick a simple yet exquisite dress. It was an off-the-shoulder piece made with ash purple

chiffon. The overall design was very fairy-like.

The main thing was that the hem of the dress was not so long, so it would not feel like a burden when it

was on her. It was the type that Corinne liked as she could move freely in it.

After she got changed, Corinne returned to her desk to wait for her boss.

It was after another 20 minutes that Lucas opened the door and walked out of his office.

Corinne got up and nodded a little respectfully with a great working attitude. “Mister Lucas.”

Lucas was distracted when he glanced at her. However, when he saw the way she looked in the dress,

he stared at her blankly, feeling slightly stunned. His gentle and indifferent face looked a little warmer,

and he felt an intriguing feeling as if a certain soft part in his heart was touched.

His surveying gaze made Corinne feel a little uncomfortable, so she frowned. “Mister Lucas?”

Lucas regained his senses, then he nodded and commented, “You have a keen eye.”

Corinne was slightly dazed, then she smiled graciously. “Mister Lucas, are you saying that my dress

looks good or are you complimenting me for having good taste in picking my dress?”

“Both.” Lucas was not stingy with his compliments for her. “Pack your things and come with me.”

“Alright, Mister Lucas.” Corinne long packed her things, so she followed behind Lucas and entered the

elevator with him.

When they got downstairs, Edmund brought the car to the entrance and was waiting for them outside

the building. As soon as Edmund saw Corinne coming out behind Lucas, he stared at her for a long

time, looking stunned.

Edmund knew Corinne was a beautiful girl, but he never expected her to also have such outstanding

elegance after dressing up. She was far more elegant than Anya!

At that moment, only one sentence in his mind could capture how Corinne looked-a fairy among

mortals.

Lucas cleared his throat.

Edmund then regained his senses and quickly opened the door for Lucas.

After Lucas got in the car, Corinne got into the backseat as well because the driver and Edmund were

sitting in front, leaving no room for her.

When the car was on the road, Corinne did not sit as casually as she usually did because she was

wearing a formal dress. She was sitting properly to not look ungraceful.

After scrolling on his phone for a while, Lucas glanced at Corinne-who was sitting upright-from the

corner of his eyes, then said nonchalantly, “Miss Corinne, did you dress up so impressively because

you’re thinking of searching for a new target at the party?”

Corinne disliked Lucas speculating other people’s minds in a malicious light. Curling her lips coldly, she

said, “If you didn’t ask me to attend the event in formal wear yesterday, I would gladly go with you in the

clothes I usually wear. To be honest with you, it’s not comfortable to wear dresses like this! As for the

thing you said about finding a new target, you can think of me however you like. I have nothing to be

afraid of. You also won’t believe me even if I explained, anyway.”

Lucas put away his phone. Looking at how Corinne had a sharp tongue and always wanted to have the

last word, Lucas felt that she was a little cute for some reason.

However, he was a little unhappy with the dress she wore that seemed to fit her very well. How could

she wear an off-the-shoulder dress at such a young age?

He was a little worried. He was scared that a girl dressed so attractively like her would be teased by his

crude cousins at the venue later.
