Chapter 109: Glittering Arrival

Beside the evening gown, there was a crown.

In the center of the crown was a thumb-sized ice-blue gemstone, emitting a faint light. The floral

branches derived from both sides of the crown, and diamond tassels in droplet shapes were hung

below.

Exquisite luxury.

"It's so beautiful!" Malaya stared straight at this crown and the dress in the box with her eyes wide

open. She couldn't believe how much money it would cost to buy this outfit. Wearing it would

surely make people unable to take their eyes off her, shining brightly.

Cheyenne was curious about who sent her this outfit.

The shoes were exactly size 35, which fit her perfectly.

"Excuse me sir, I want to ask if you know who ordered this dress?"

Upon hearing this, the delivery guy shook his head. "I don't know either. I received an order directly

from the clothing store and picked up the clothes for you, Miss Lawrence.”

There was no information left in the box either. Cheyenne raised an eyebrow and carried it back to

her bedroom.

Malaya stood at the door, biting on her lower lip wondering who had such deep pockets as to give

Cheyenne such an expensive gift? A divorced woman like her doesn't deserve it! That kind of

gorgeous princess gown should belong to her daughter Nora instead!

For Cheyenne and Layne’s sake, Kai also sent an invitation to the Lawrence family.

Malaya decided she would attend tomorrow night with Nora by herself while she had ordered a

dress for herself too.

Now seeing that set in Cheyenne's hands made Malaya feel instantly inferior.

She had just prepared to return to her room when another delivery came downstairs again - but this

time with a different courier guy.

A man dressed in black suit appeared before Malaya holding a huge pink box; he looked about

twenty years old or so.

"Excuse me, is this Miss Lawrence's house?" he asked politely.

Another one looking for Cheyenne!

Could it be another evening gown?

Malaya paused slightly, then nodded with kindness, walking towards him smilingly, "Yes, I am her

mother; do you have any business with my daughter?"

Without thinking much further, he respectfully handed over his pink box, "Hello, please pass on this

box to Miss Lawrence from my young master."

Sure enough another gift arrived for Cheyenne!

Wait... his young master?

Who is that?

With a brighter smile on Malaya's face, she reached out and asked, pretending to be casual, "And

who might your young master be?"

The man remained tight-lipped and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Lawrence, I'm sorry but I cannot say.

My master said it's a surprise for Miss Lawrence, and she will naturally find out tomorrow.”

Malaya couldn't help feeling regretful for not being able to figure out who the gift giver was.

She sent the young man away and opened the box to take a look.

Inside was a set of red dresses, made of luxurious and elegant silk. The neckline featured delicate

floral patterns with scalloped edges, the waist was cinched tightly, and it was adorned with a

complete circle of diamonds.

Radiant and dazzling, the fishtail-shaped skirt also featured delicate embroidery, while the high slit

design exuded a powerful and sexy vibe.

There were no shoes in this box, but there was an irregular tassel diamond necklace to match.

It probably cost several million just to buy this necklace alone. Malaya couldn't help but pick up the

necklace and examined it carefully, her eyes filled with increasing greed.

These were all real diamonds!

The venue for the banquet was at the Phoenix Hotel, which was the most famous hotel in Akloit.

The top floor of the hotel had already lit up with lights, and the romantic and golden decorations

were full of luxury.

The men in formal suits and women in various evening gowns painted a scene of opulence and

prosperity in the upper echelons of society, where dreams intertwined.

People stood together in groups of two or three, chatting and laughing while holding glasses of red

wine.

Malaya was wearing a short moon-white embroidered dress, carrying a limited edition Chanel bag,

with her hair neatly pinned up behind her head, looking elegant and beautiful.

Beside her was George, dressed in a black suit with a vintage hairstyle parted into two waves. He

wore glasses and looked lively.

What caught everyone's attention was the woman behind them, shining brightly.

Nora wore a red dress, and to match her alluring appearance, she specially pinned up her curly hair

on top of her head, wearing the sparkling diamond necklace around her slender neck.

As soon as they saw her, someone started whispering behind her back.

"Whose daughter is this? Why haven't I seen her before?"

"I don't know either."

"Do you see the necklace on her neck? It's the “Light Diamond’ of Boraera! She must be really

wealthy. I remember that necklace was a classic from last year and it was priced at over six million."

Nora also heard the voices of the two people talking and absentmindedly reached up to touch the

diamond necklace around her neck.

She was also extremely surprised.

This necklace was actually worth six million, oh my god!

On the balcony, Teagan's gaze casually caught the figure that had just entered the scene, and Nora

in her striking red gown immediately caught his eye.

He hadn't expected her to look so stunning in red.

"Mr. Smith, please excuse me for a moment,” Teagan said as he took a sip of red wine and bid

farewell to his foreign friend sitting across from him.

With a long stride, he walked over to Nora. "Nora, it's been days since I saw you. You look even

more beautiful now. That dress is stunning,” Teagan said as he took her hand.

It was like a Western knight meeting the princess; he slightly bowed and kissed the back of her hand

with his lips.

There was still warmth on her hand where his lips had touched, sending shivers down Nora's spine.

When the man's large hands held hers, Nora's fair and delicate face immediately turned red.

"Thank you for your compliment, Teagan."

"And who is this?" Malaya looked at Teagan curiously.

The man in front of them appeared to be around twenty-five or six years old with a lean build and

an Armani suit adorned with pearls on his cufflinks - clearly from an affluent family.

When did Nora meet such a high-quality wealthy man?

"Mom, I forgot to introduce him earlier. This is Teagan - Danielle's brother and the general manager

of the Parry Group who just returned from abroad this year.”

Danielle occasionally visited the Lawrence family; Malaya knew her quite well but it was still her first

time meeting Teagan

The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she felt. The Parry Group's general manager! If Nora

could be together with him, it would definitely help them out tremendously.

"Mr. And Mrs. Lawrence, hello! Allow me to propose a toast to you both," said Teagan as he raised

his glass towards them before taking sips himself.

After finishing their drinks together, he pretended that something came up suddenly so that he

needed to leave temporarily.

"Well then, if you have something important going on, then go ahead first without us delaying you

any further,” Malaya spoke politely. Nora nodded shyly watching as Teagan left.

As more people entered the venue, George finally noticed something strange. "Where is she?"
