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 .
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 .noveldrama
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 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 .
