Chapter 408

The hairstyle and makeup Roxanne picked was rallier simple, so the stylist was done with her fairly quickly. She then picked a dress and went to got changed while the stylist waited for her outside the changing room.

When he saw Roxanne coming out of the changing room, he was blown away.

“Miss, the dress fits you like it was made for you!”

He had been a stylist for years, and he had rarely seen someone picking such a simple look in Neon Boutique.

Before he did her makeup, he noticed how pretty she looked. However, she had only picked a simple look, so the stylist didn’t have a high expectation of how she would look when they were done.

To his surprise, he was utterly blown away by Roxanne’s beauty when he saw her.

A bunch of Roxanne’s hair was pinned into a simple bun behind her head with a simple pearl hairpin, and the rest of her hair was casually draped behind her head. With her light makeup, she was able to showcase her facial features. The makeup artist had even taken the initiative to put on some lip gloss on her lips. She was dressed in a white evening gown that exposed her shoulders. Her exposed skin was flawless, and her collarbone was alluring.

In fact, she looked like an angel from heaven.

If it weren’t for the fact that people who would come to Neon Boutique for styling were rich and powerful, the stylist would’ve recommended her to join the entertainment industry and be a star.

Upon receiving the stylist’s praises, Roxanne simply smiled and answered, “Thank you.”

Roxanne then checked herself out in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction. This is good. It‘s not too fancy, but it‘s enough to show my appreciation for the invitation.

Roxanne turned to thank the stylist once again before heading downstairs to make payment, After exiting Neon Boutique, Roxanne realized it was about time to attend the banquet. Hence, she wanted to walk toward the side of the road to hail a taxi Right then, she heard a voice coming from behind her.

“Goodbye, Mr. Farwell,” the Neon Boutique’s person in-charge saint politely when he sent Lucian out Lucian nodded slightly before turning around. That was when she saw a lady standing by the side of the road.

He recognized Roxanne just by looking at her back Roxanne heard the person in charge clearly, and her enure being suitland instantly.

Right after that, Roxanne wanted to get out of there as soon as she could.

Seeing that, Lucian’s gaze darkened, and he quickly went up to her. “What a coincidence, Ms. Jarvis!”

When she heard those words, Roxanne immediately halted in her tracks, and she was stumped. How could there be such a coincidence? Why is Lucian here? Also, why would he still call out to me after what I said?

On the other hand, Lucian was also caught by surprise. Who would‘ve known that when I was getting ready upstairs, she had been downstairs all along? I thought we‘ll only meet during the banquet.

However, it‘s not such a bad thing to bump into her before the event.

Lucian wasn’t bothered by the fact that Roxanne didn’t respond. He then approached her and stood beside her before asking in a deep voice, “You’re all dressed up, Ms. Jarvis. Are you attending the banquet? Were you planning on getting into a taxi dressed like that?”

Roxanne frowned slightly and took two steps backward to create a distance from him. “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Farwell. You must be a busy man. I shouldn’t take up your time.”

With that, she turned around to leave, Lucian looked stunned when he caught a glimpse of Roxanne. In the next second, he realized that she was trying to get away from him.

Lucian’s gaze darkened, and he suddenly reached out his hand to grab Roxanne’s wrist.

Roxanne halted in her tracks and turned around to shoot him a wary look.

Lucian then uttered authoritatively, “I'll send you.”
