Chapter 858

When Christoff saw Olivia, he smiled. "Are you happy with your appearance?"

"Yes." Olivia smiled and nodded. There was a newfound refinement to her appearance. Despite her

attempts to adjust to her new facial appearance, she had to admit that she remained as beautiful as

ever.

He knit his brows and insisted, "So, let's go. We'll be able to get to the banquet on time after the

makeover."

She stated, "Please wait a moment. I need to get something." With a hum, Christoff nodded. Soon, she

came out and left with him.

At 6.00PM, Christoff and a glammed-up Olivia arrived at the City Palace entrance. After exiting the

vehicle, he gestured for her to link her arms to his by slightly curling his arms. However, she did not

move an inch as she stared in awe at the beautiful palace before her. It was her first visit to the palace,

and the entire palace reminded her of ancient mansions. Nevertheless, it was more luxurious and

opulent than mansions at the time, and the enormous palace was heavily guarded by palace guards

armed with firearms. She believed that even a fly could not escape such a strictly guarded place.

As he kept an eye on her, he said, "What are you thinking? Tonight, you're my partner." It wasn't until

that moment that Olivia shook herself out of her daze and grabbed his arm as they walked toward the

palace gates.

"Invitation card." They were stopped by a guard armed with a gun, so Christoff handed the card he was

holding to him, who quickly looked at it to make sure it was legitimate. Following that, the guard took

out detectors and began scanning their bodies, and the entire procedure took about ten minutes.

Olivia exhaled a deep sigh as though releasing her anxiety. She had a silver needle up her sleeve and

was surprised it hadn't been confiscated; perhaps carrying only one did not constitute being

overweight. Soon, the two were led into the main hall.

There was such a large crowd that the hall was completely packed. Celebrities, children from wealthy

families, businessmen, and politicians all gathered around in small groups and exchanged customary

greetings. Moreover, the camera lights from the reporters flashed one after the other at the same time.

Those invited were unquestionably influential, either on par with Christoff's standing or higher.

He was ecstatic not because he had received an invitation to a banquet in the City Palace but rather

because of the woman standing next to him and the anticipated scene.

Christoff deliberately leaned closer to Olivia and asked, "Do you agree that we are a good fit for one

another?"

She stared straight ahead and maintained her cheerful demeanor, but what she said was less pleasant.

"I don't think so."

He was utterly unfazed by her demeanor. "Make up a name. How should I introduce you later?"

Olivia glanced at Christoff and questioned. "Who would take notice of me? Right now, I look like a total

stranger."

If she still had her own appearance, she might be concerned that Eugene would lose control of himself

when he sees her. Nevertheless, she had no reason to be concerned about him anymore, and she

could prevent him from becoming envious when he saw her with Christoff.

It can't be denied that the concept of changing one's appearance was highly ingenious. However,

Christoff replied, "Think of a name just in case."

She responded, "So, call me Margot Pearce."

He glanced at her. "Seriously?"

It didn't appear to bother Olivia in the slightest. "Perhaps, no one will inquire."

Ultimately, she didn't give a hoot because locating Eugene was more important to her than attending

someone's birthday banquet. If Sirius was serious about Azalea marrying Eugene, Eugene would be

here tonight. There was nothing for her to do but wait for him to show up.

"Let's greet the King of the City."
