Chapter 159 Why To Dress Up

The next day was the day for Tylman Group’s

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

couldn’t help her smile.

Kerwin looked at Betty in the mirror and asked, “What is with all that smiling?”

“I think you’re cute,” Betty gave an honest

answer.

The corner of Kerwin’s mouth couldn’t help lifting. He said in a low voice, “You should dress yourself up too today.”

“No need for me. I’m a journalist. My colleagues in the magazine will also be there

today. We have received the invitation from

your company,” 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?

“Good morning, Mr. Martin. Good morning,

Mrs. Martin.”

Betty looked over to Kerwin with wide eyes,

asking, “What are they…”

Seated in a wheelchair, Kerwin said to the

crowd, “Here you are. Mrs. Martin is yours now. Don’t disappoint me.”

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!

“What is this? Why is this?” Betty puzzled.

“This conference today is really important to

Tylman Group. Of course, I want you to be

there looking pretty.”

In the mirror, Betty did look very different

after the dress-up. Kerwin’s breath was

taken for a moment.

But Betty found it ridiculous, “I’m a

journalist. My job is to sit down there

reporting the news. I don’t need to look beautiful!”

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.

“This is a gift for you, as a souvenir of the news conference. Do you like it?” asked Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Kerwin.

“I do,” Betty nodded, “It’s beautiful, but… it’s too expensive, which means it doesn’t go

with me.”

“I say it goes perfectly with you,” Kerwin

assured her.

Betty gently touched the diamond heart with

her fingers. It was Kerwin’s 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.

Betty’s 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.

“Do I have to dress like this? Is it necessary?”

She asked Kerwin.

“Yes, you do and it is.” 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, “Excuse me, may I help you?”

“It’s me, Sarah, I’m Betty,” said Betty in a faint voice with her head hung low.

“Oh my god!” Sarah couldn’t help herself.

“It’s really you? Betty?” Sarah’s jaw was literally dropping to the ground.

“Oh my goodness, it’s really Betty!”

“You look so beautiful dressed like this!”

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 Betty’s 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.

“Wow, Betty. I saw this dress in a magazine. This brand is like crazily expensive. And its

couture, isn’t it?”

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 Betty’s neck.

“Is it real diamond or imitation?” Sarah pointed at it, “It looks so real!”

“It’s fake. Fake,” said Betty in a panic.

“Fake? Did you buy it from Amazon?” asked

Sarah.

“Yes, I guess so,” Betty tried to change the topic.

Betty’s look brought out the

extra-ordinariness in her, which stunned.

every one of them. So this was Betty’s 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 couldn’t 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 Group’s 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 Betty’s 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 couldn’t 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.
