Chapter 159 Why To Dress Up The next day was the day for Tylman Groupâs New Fund Launch Conference.
Both Betty and Kerwin got up early in the morning.
Kerwin dressed himself all up, more carefully and formally than he usually did. The simply-cut and elegant suit, together with his handsome face brought out the noble temperament that he had been born with.
Betty liked it. She kept staring at him and couldnât help her smile.
Kerwin looked at Betty in the mirror and asked, âWhat is with all that smiling?â
âI think youâre cute,â Betty gave an honest answer.
The corner of Kerwinâs mouth couldnât help lifting. He said in a low voice, âYou should dress yourself up too today.â
âNo need for me. Iâm a journalist. My colleagues in the magazine will also be there today. We have received the invitation from your company,â Betty winked.
Ding dong, ding dong!
Someone was ringing the doorbell downstairs.
It was still early. Who would it be?
Betty opened the door, and a crowd with cases and boxes of all sorts flooded into the room.
Betty was surprised. What did they want?
âGood morning, Mr. Martin. Good morning, Mrs. Martin.â
Betty looked over to Kerwin with wide eyes, asking, âWhat are theyâ¦â
Seated in a wheelchair, Kerwin said to the crowd, âHere you are. Mrs. Martin is yours now. Donât disappoint me.â
What was happening? Betty was puzzled.
The crowd started to open their cases and boxes, in which were cosmetics, essential oils, scissors, etc.
Kerwin had also prepared a dress and pieces of jewelry for Betty.
Betty finally realized what was happening. They were going to dress her, just like the last time when they were going to the auction.
She was done. They were going to torture her again. She felt that being dressed up was no different than being put to torture.
They put a facial mask on her face before. starting to polish her nails and do her hair⦠after a whole lot of busy activity, they were finally done with Betty!
âWhat is this? Why is this?â Betty puzzled.
âThis conference today is really important to Tylman Group. Of course, I want you to be there looking pretty.â
In the mirror, Betty did look very different after the dress-up. Kerwinâs breath was Get Bonus taken for a moment.
But Betty found it ridiculous, âIâm a journalist. My job is to sit down there reporting the news. I donât need to look beautiful!â
From behind her, Kerwin put a heart-shaped diamond necklace around her neck. The high purity was why it sparkled so brightly in the light.
âThis is a gift for you, as a souvenir of the news conference. Do you like it?â asked Kerwin.
âI do,â Betty nodded, âItâs beautiful, but⦠itâs too expensive, which means it doesnât go with me.â
âI say it goes perfectly with you,â Kerwin assured her.
Betty gently touched the diamond heart with her fingers. It was Kerwinâs good intention, as well as a great souvenir. She liked it.
The crystal necklace suddenly came to her mind. She wondered if Kerwin still cared about that necklace.
Bettyâs patience was almost run out before they were finally done decorating her.
With the high ponytail, she looked steady yet lively. The fitted expensive dress and sparkling diamond necklace had completely transformed Betty.
Betty checked herself in the mirror repeatedly and still found something was not right.
She preferred to dress up in a casual and simple way, which meant more comfortable. But now, in her high heels and expensive clothes, she was starting swaying when walking.
âDo I have to dress like this? Is it necessary?â
She asked Kerwin.
âYes, you do and it is.â Kerwin smiled.
It was hard to say no now.
Dressed up like this, there was no way for her to take the subway, so Kerwin asked Peter to send her to work, while he himself took another car.
No sooner had Betty walked into the hall of the building than she attracted the attention. of some men.
She took some quick steps and slipped into the elevator.
People in the elevator were staring at her too and her hands broke out into a sweat. Having worked in this building for so many years, she had never attracted as much attention as now. She so regretted saying yes to Kerwin. Where could she find another outfit and get changed now? Betty could do nothing but bite the bullet and go into the office of the magazine.
Sarah, Jessica, and Kevin the photographer were making preparations for going to the press conference. Everyone was busy like bees in a hive.
At the sight of a fancy-dressed lady walking in, Sarah thought it must be a client and hurried up, âExcuse me, may I help you?â
âItâs me, Sarah, Iâm Betty,â said Betty in a faint voice with her head hung low.
âOh my god!â Sarah couldnât help herself.
âItâs really you? Betty?â Sarahâs jaw was literally dropping to the ground.
âOh my goodness, itâs really Betty!â
âYou look so beautiful dressed like this!â
They praised and marveled. Was she the Betty they had known to be? She looked like a noble lady now.
Did she have something important to claim? Or was she just out of her mind? People wondered.
Sarah felt the fabric of Bettyâs dress and took a glance at the label. She was surprised! It was a very expensive brand, and the design was like couture. The dress was worthy of more than a hundred grand, and now it was on Betty.
âWow, Betty. I saw this dress in a magazine. This brand is like crazily expensive. And its couture, isnât it?â
Betty hurried to adjust her dress. She felt very uncomfortable in it.
And that was not it. Sarah noticed the thin and sparkling diamond necklace around Bettyâs neck.
âIs it real diamond or imitation?â Sarah pointed at it, âIt looks so real!â
âItâs fake. Fake,â said Betty in a panic.
âFake? Did you buy it from Amazon?â asked Sarah.
âYes, I guess so,â Betty tried to change the topic.
Bettyâs look brought out the extra-ordinariness in her, which stunned.
every one of them. So this was Bettyâs real temperament. They had always been thinking of her as an ordinary beauty.
With files in his hands, Jeffrey walked out. He saw Betty and couldnât help but take another look. She looked beautiful, like a totally different person.
This was the second time he had ever seen Betty dressed up so extraordinarily, the first time being the time at the auction.
Then it hit Jeffrey that today was the day for Tylman Groupâs press conference for its new fund. It was only normal for her to dress like that.
However, Jeffrey wondered why she had dolled herself up. It was not her usual dress code.
Jeffrey stared at her without blinking, thinking that Bettyâs beauty was never the blinding kind, but she had been starting to shine since Kerwin. There seemed to be starlight around her now.
The youthful and handsome college girl Betty, the innocent and carefree girl in his impression seemed to be drifting far away and blurring.
Jeffrey couldnât help sighing.
People started to make preparations for the press conference.
Betty was busy too.
Soon, the conference was going to start. And the colleges in the magazine set off together for the Tylman Group conference site.
