Chapter 161 Hannah Lloyd

Milly was in a champagne–colored gown with a long train trailing on the ground. The gown was shimmering in the dark as if the stars had fallen upon her. She had her hair pinned up with a hairpin gracefully.

She looked innocent and mature at the same time. People would be captivated by her aura once they saw her.

George was momentarily stunned when he saw Milly. After feeling amazed, he instantly regretted it.

She was so beautiful that he didn’t want to take her out and let other men see her.

He wanted to hide her away.

However, he knew that Milly loved freedom. She would never settle down for a person.

She belonged to the vast skies. She was growing stronger day by day, she would surely astonish everyone with her brilliance one day.

George was willing to protect her in the shadows, allowing her to soar freely.

Danny reacted quickly and opened the door for Milly.

Milly lifted her gown and got into the car. The backseat was spacious, with a thick velvet carpet on the floor, adding to the luxury.

Now she knew why William always went to school in a Rolls–Royce; it was indeed very comfortable.

Just as Milly finished marveling at the luxurious interior and was about to say something, she looked up and noticed something was off.

Sitting opposite her was a woman with short hair.

Milly frowned slightly. What was George thinking?

He already found a companion but still wanted me to attend the banquet with him. Is he thinking of bringing two women with him?

The stylist noticed Milly’s emotions and she hurriedly clarified before George got angry with her.

“Hello, Ms. Burnett. I’m Anna, the head of the design department at Tate Group. I’m here to take care of your hair and styling for tonight”

Anna was puzzled.

After all, she was usually the exclusive stylist for Hannah Lloyd, an actress under the Tate Group. This was the first time she had been asked to style anoth girl.

Most importantly, George had specifically requested it.

However, it was rumoured that Hannah was George’s fiancée.

Considering their family background and looks or the period that they had known George, Hannah

Although the Burnetts were considered an upper–class family, they didn’t have a strong foundation. They were nothing compared to the Tates and the Lloyds. It didn’t make sense for George to abandon the Lloyds for the Burnetts.

Milly blushed in embarrassment as she realised that she had misunderstood Anna. “Hello. I’ve already done my hair and makeup. You don’t have to do anything about it, thank you.”

“But…Anna looked at George hesitantly.

George nodded expressionlessly. “Mhm, do as she says.”

“Alright, Mr. Tate.” Anna packed her makeup tools and the dresses that she had prepared for Milly. “Mr. Tate, I’ll take a taxi back. Ms. Hannah has a business banquet tonight, and I need to be there.”

George nodded.

Anna had only dared to open the car door and leave after getting George’s approval.

After the Rolls–Royce drove away, she turned to hail a taxi when her phone suddenly rang.

It was Hannah calling.

As soon as Anna answered, someone was shouting at her furiously, “Anna, what’s going on? Why did you send an intern to do my styling? Do you know how important tonight’s banquet is? Who’s going to be responsible for my losses if my styling is ruined?”

Sobs could be heard in the background.

Hannah’s voice was so sharp that Anna could hear her even after holding the phone away.

Hannah was notorious in the industry for her bad temper and spoiled behaviour. She always yelled at everyone from directors to assistant makeup artists, but no one dared to talk back.

After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Lloyds.

The Lloyds were different from the Tates. The Tates were business moguls, dominating the market and controlling most of the country’s economy.

In contrast, the Lloyds might not be as wealthy, but their roots were deep and influential. They were descendants of ancient Lublurg royalty. Even though Lublurg no longer existed, many of their descendants worked in the government, maintaining a vast network of connections and a strong family legacy.

It was also rumored that they possessed treasures left by the former queen of Lublurg, enough to ensure the Lloyds prosperity for generations.

Anna didn’t dare to argue and tried to explain to Hannah, “Ms. Hannah, Doris is not an intern. She’s my most trusted assistant. You don’t have to worry about her skills.”

Hannah sneered. “Are you attending the banquet, or am I attending the banquet? It’s a no when I said so! You have fifteen minutes to get here. You’ll get it from me if you’re late!”

Anna frowned upon hearing that. That’s impossible. I’m in the suburbs now. I can’t make it in fifteen minutes. I’ll be there as soon as I can, okay?”

“What are you doing in the suburbs?” Hannah asked.

“Someone needed styling service here,” Anna answered honestly.

“You’re my exclusive stylist, Didn’t George make that clear? What made you decide to do someone else’s styling? Are you thinking of jumping ship?”

“No, it was Mr. Tate’s order.”

Hannah paused. “George sent you? For whom? A man or a woman?”

Anna replied. “It’s for the eldest daughter of the Burnetts, Milly

Anna knew Hannah could find out about everything eventually. Lying would only make things worse.

Before she could say more, Hannah had already hung up.

Having worked as her private stylist for so long. Anna knew her temper well. She was sure that Hannah was now investigating Milly.
