After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 170

Chapter 170 The Fashion Show

Hannah lapsed into a pondering silence after hearing what Rose said.

Rose also fell silent.

Mann was there in the car so she didn't say it then.

But she had to tell Hannah in case it didn't work out with Celina.

It was a bit awkward.

Hannah said suddenly, "Well."

Rose stared at Hannah.

What did this "well" mean?

Were they still going to talk to Celina or not?

Rose was too afraid to ask.

So she just texted Hannah on Saturday to ask if she wanted to pick gowns with her. And Hannah then replied with a location.

Rose knew it.

Hannah was not a quitter.

Rose rushed to Celina's shop of couture dresses. She saw Hannah picking gowns there. But shockingly, Janet was there too.

The shop assistant in charge of the gown area was introducing for them.

She didn't dare to offend them but apparently, she treated Janet more nicely.

Rose quietly walked toward Hannah and then stood by her.

She heard the shop assistant complimenting Janet, "Miss Burke, our designing director Mr James specially told me that you can wear any couture dress you want here. And we are looking forward to seeing you tonight."

Janet smirked, and glanced at Hannah from the corner of her eyes with a sense of superiority, "Is there one he recommends?"

"Of course," the SA said, "these two are the staples tonight, and our models will wear them on stage. Mr James said they suit you. So if you want one of them, you can wear one. Models will have others."

"Let me see this one." Janet pointed at the gold gown with a long rim in front of her.

The clerk asked the person beside her to take the gown down and showed Janet to the dressing room.

Hannah was still picking.

And she overheard their conversation.

So Janet was going to be on stage tonight?

It made sense.

Janet had been Celina's lead model. It would have been a great promotion hit if she went back on stage after two years.

Hannah thought about it in her mind, and then she lifted her face, "Where's the 鹤 gown of this season?"

"Sorry, Ms Wells. The 'Crane' gown has always been our limited edition. We can't sell it until its initial launch. I hope you understand." She said awkwardly.

Hannah didn't give her a hard time.

She turned around and said to Rose, "Pick one you like. I have to make a call."

"Okay." Rose said, politely.

Hannah walked over there.

And walked back a while later.

Rose had simply picked out a black evening gown.

As a secretary, banquets and parties were like routines. She knew well enough that she couldn't steal the thunder, so low-key and normal styles would be perfection.

In the meantime, Janet had put the gold gown on and walked out of the dressing room.

This gold gown looked stunning in the light.

Everyone was looking at Janet and that eye-catching gown right now.

Admittedly, Janet sure was qualified to be proud with her beautiful 5. 7-foot body and natural style on stage as a model.

She looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction and then gave Hannah a provocative glance.

Hannah glanced back.

But she ignored Janet, and said to Rose, "Go put the dress on."

"OK."

Rose followed the shop assistant to the dressing room.

Janet stared at Hannah with a sardonic grin.

Hannah did have a gorgeous look.

She was so gorgeous that she could outshine every woman.

But so what?

Janet thought she would be the only one in the spotlight tonight.

"Miss Burke, you look breathtaking in this gown! It's like the gown is bespoke and exactly your size!" The clerk complimented dramatically.

Janet said with a smile, "Tell James I'll take this one."

"Sure." The worker asked, "You wanna have your makeup here?"

"Probably not. I have to rehearse for tonight's show. James will take care of my makeup then." Janet said these on purpose to tell Hannah that she and Celina went way back.

But Hannah didn't care.

She watched Janet walking by her elegantly in that gold gown, deadpan.

Janet stopped by her and said, "Forget Celina. This ain't gonna work." Then she continued walking without looking back."

Hannah sneered.

Well, just wait and see.

Janet left.

At the same time, the manager hurriedly walked towards Hannah and said most respectfully, "Sorry, Ms Wells. We just got the order from the headquarter. We'll show you the 'Crane' gowns. This way."

Hannah nodded a bit.

Being gazed at by the clerks there who were surprised, they went to the "Crane" gowns area.

After all, Celina had never allowed anyone to put the "Crane" gowns on before the official launch for all these years.

At 7:00 pm, Hannah arrived at the scene of Celina's fashion show on time with Rose.

There was a high-end runway in front of them.

All chairs were placed nicely on both sides and the front of the runway.

The lights were down around and it was hard to recognize anyone except for the spotlight on the stage.

Hannah was ushered to her seat with the help of the staff there.

Hannah's seat was well placed for that she came from one of the four strong powers.

They probably put some effort into it.

Guests from four strong powers were seated on the left side of the runway, which was closer to the stage.

When Hannah walked over and sat down, she saw Oscar, Theodore, Susan, Henry, Charles, and Martina through the reflection of the spotlight.

It was not surprising to see these people, except for Oscar.

Why would he be here with his lame leg?

The point was he never mentioned it this afternoon when she went out from home. So she just thought his brothers David or Thomas would come. She didn't expect to see him here now sitting quietly, right next to her.

Hannah went to her seat without talking to Oscar.

Well, it didn't matter to her.

In silence.

"Are you two that kind of couple who are into going out separately?" Suddenly a voice came from Susan.

Hannah was speechless.

'This stupid Susan! What was she trying to do to me?' Hannah thought to herself.
