Turning Of The Tide
Chapter 78
Chapter 78
Unbeknownst to them, time slipped away unnoticed, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the bidding had arrived.
Sherri was filled with sheer delight, beaming like a child.
She twirled in front of the mirror, unable to contain her excitement. The reason for her joy was the limited-edition dress that Edward had purchased for her to wear at the bidding event. Notably, it was the same design as the one worn by Natalie, affectionately known as the sister dress. One was a delicate shade of blue, while the other boasted a soft, creamy hue.
Without a doubt, Sherri had chosen the pale blue one.
Meanwhile. Natalie had already finished her makeup and sat primly on the bed, waiting patiently for Sherri. She had been waiting for half an hour while Sherri meticulously curled her eyelashes, taking her time with every detail.
Completely unaware of the passing time, Sherri didn’t consider the minutes ticking by. For a woman, getting dressed and applying makeup was an effortless endeavor, as if time had no hold on her.
Looking beautiful was all that mattered,
Natalie felt reluctant to remund Sherri. ‘Sherri, we’re attending a bidding event, not a beauty pageant. You already look stunning. Even the celebrities walking the red carpet can’t compare to you.”
Sherri had an air of confidence, proudly stating, “Absolutely! You have great taste. But I can’t afford to embarrass Edward. What if I run into my future sister-in-law? I can’t risk looking anything less than perfect”
Deep down, Sherri always had a nagging feeling that Edward had a girlfriend overseas!
Feeling tired, Natalie propped her chin up and said. “You keep going. I’ll grab a drink to wake myself up. I haven’t had a single sip of water since I woke up this morning.”
“Hey, Natalie, does my makeup look good? Are my lashes curled enough?”
Natalie glanced up and commented, “Looks good. No need to curl them anymore. They’re reaching for the sky”
Sherri was in high spirits and didn’t pay much attention to Natalie’s hidden implications.
Edward had been waiting downstairs for an hour without making a single phone call. He sat in the passenger seat, patiently
waiting
Meanwhile, Kyle, showing no sense of urgency, reclined in his seat with his eyes half-closed, nearly drifting off to sleep. Once Sherri and Natalie finished their preparations, they spotted Edward’s Maybach downstairs. Opening the car doors, they carefully adjusted their dresses before stepping inside.
Edward, you’re here so early”
“Yeah”
With everyone seated, Kyle started the car engine and headed toward the Grand Manor Hotel
The bidding event was being held in the penthouse conference room of the Grand Manor Hotel.
Natalie, who had a late shaft that evening, was anxious about possibly being late. “Edward, what time does the bidding event wrap up?”
Edward turned his head slightly and spoke in a reassuring tone, “Worried about being late for work?”
Natalie answered honestly. “Yes.”
“Don’t worry. It will be over before dinner. The results will be announced, and after that. I’ll drop you off at the hospital
