Chapter 0115 Chapter 0115 Judys POV He didnt invite me to the Gala , Irene , I told her , my brows furrowed .

She grinned even wider .

Oh , but he will , she told me .

Trust me .

He just asked my father for an invitation for you .

My chest tightened at her words .

+25 BONUS He asked Gavin ? I asked , but then remembering who was present , I cleared my throat and tried again .

He asked your father ? She nodded .

Yeah , and hes getting you both a ticket , she confirmed .

Well be going together as a double date .

You and Walter , me and Ethan .

Ethan .

Of course , I would be stuck being around Ethan for the entire night .

It didnt seem like there was a way for me to get out of this and my stomach started to twist and turn uncomfortably .

This also meant that Gavin would most likely be there too , so on top of being around Ethan and Walter all night , I would also have to be around Gavin .

Could things get any more awkward ? I dont really do Galas , Irene , I told her , biting my lower lip .

Ive never done this kind of thing before .

Its so fun .

You are going to love it .

Plus , its not like you are going alone .

Im going to be there ! she assured me .

Despite her excited and positive attitude , I wasnt so sure .

I leaned back in the seat and let her drive us the rest of the way into the city .

She parked outside of a high class boutique and instead of waiting in the car , Gamma Derek and Beta Taylor walked into the store with us while the Gammas from the other car took positions outside .

Gavin was not messing around this time ; not that I could blame him .

His daughter almost gets killed by rogues .

I was honestly glad to have the extra protection even though I knew they were only here for Irene and not because of me .

Miss Landry , lovely to see you again , the store clerk said as we entered the store .

She was a young woman with curly red hair and dazzling green eyes .

Are you shopping for the Gala this weekend ? Hello , Stacy , Irene greeted .

Yes , I am .

This is my friend , Judy .

Shell be going to the Gala as well as my cousins date .

Her eyes lit up at her words .

Walter is in town ? Yes , Irene said simply .

Would be able to help her find the perfect ball gown ? Of course ! Stacy said excitedly .

We just got a couple of new dresses this morning , One of which , I think you will truly like .

Chapter 0115 +25 BONUS She walked over to a rack of dresses that were behind the cashiers counter and pulled out the most beautiful silver dress I had ever seen .

Are those real diamonds ? Irene asked , admiring the dress fondly .

Of course they are , Stacy said with a bright smile .

This is an original Ella Venuti .

Theres only one in the world like this .

When I say its new , its brand spanking new .

Irenes eyes lit up as she stepped closer to examine the stitching on the gown .

Ella Venuti is always flawless with her designs .

This is impressive .

The diamonds make for a beautiful touch and the fabric is lightweight .

It would be perfect for the Gala , she breathed .

Its also the most expensive in the store , Stacy warned .

Price has never been an issue , she said thoughtfully She glanced at the price without flinching and then she looked at the size with a frown .

Its a little big for me though , she said .

I wouldnt want to adjust the size unless Ella would be able to do it herself .

I hear that Ella Venuti will be at the Gala this weekend .

But she wont be flying in until Friday evening , Stacy said with a frown .

Shes booked up for the week , so I dont think shell be able to make any adjustments on it .

But we have great designers here as you know .

They could- I wouldnt want anyone else to touch an Ella Venuti dress besides Ella herself , Irene said , holding up her hand .

She stepped back and then turned to look at me .

It looks like it could fit you though .

How about you try it on and see ? She suggested .

I gawked at her in shock .

She wanted me to try on this expensive one of a kind dress ? Was she out of her mind ?? I … uh … I dont think so , I stammered .

This dress needs to be seen at the Gala , Judy , Irene told me .

Please , try it on .

I sighed and I eventually relented .

Stacy went with me to the dressing room and helped me get the dress on without ruining it .

The moment the zipper in the back went up and she released the seams of the dress , I felt like an entirely new woman .

The dress fit perfectly and hugged my curves with so much gentleness and ease .

Stacy gasped when I turned to face her , and her face immediately lit up .
