Chapter 120

So, until I get to meet Old Madam Presgrave, I'U take my time to eat upall the food here. I can spend as much time as I want since Dad is takingcare of Jared, Anastasia thought.

There was another sports car outside the hotel-it was Hayley's ride tothe event. She had put effort into her outfit, and she had come up witha good idea of what to do. Shé strutted over to the main lobby. Therewas a checkpoint where staff members were to check for the guests!invitation cards at the entrance, but Hayley walked in without stoppingby. A female security guard hastily stepped forward with a smile.“Please show me your invitation card, Miss. Thank

you.”

Hayley instantly raised her eyebrow before speaking in a haughty tone.“Do I need an invitation? My boyfriend didn't tell me anything aboutthat!”

"Who's your boyfriend?” the security asked.

“My boyfriend's Elliot, the young master of the Presgrave Family,” shereplied in a firm and loud tone. Suddenly, the hotel manager, who hadbeen standing beside the security guard, hurried over. “Hello, Miss. I'mthe hotel manager. Are you President Presgrave's girlfriend?”

“Yeah! My name's Hayley. Isn't Old Madam Presgrave's dinner partyhappening tonight? I'm sorry. I didn’t know I needed any invitationcards. Can you just let me enter?” she uttered in an innocent tone.Right then, Daniel, who had already come to an earlier agreement withHayley, put on a worried expression as he hurried over to Elliot, whowas chit-chatting with a few seniors. “Miss Seymour is here, PresidentPresgrave. She's being stopped at the main lobby.”

Elliot knitted his brows together while holding onto his glass of wine.“What's she doing here? Did you tell her to come?”

“Yeah! I mentioned the party when I delivered some of her dailynecessities to her yesterday, President Presgrave. Did I say somethingwrong?” Daniel replied. Elliot couldn“t say that his grandmother hadn'tinvited Hayley. However, since Daniel had already brought up the party,Elliot had no choice but to bring Hayley in.

“I want you to go down and bring her up,” Elliot ordered. Daniel quicklyput on a flustered expression. “I'm sorry, President Presgrave.”

Elliot only gave him a side-eye without saying much. Daniel might havebeen a little too much of a busybody this time, so Elliot had no choicebut to ask Hayley to come up. Daniel hurried over to the main lobbybefore approaching the hotel manager, who had been talking toHayley. “Excuse me. Miss Seymour is one of President Presgrave’s VIPguests. This was a mistake on the company’s end-we missed out on herinvitation card!"

The hotel manager knew that Daniel was Elliot's assistant, so the hotelmanager quickly turned to Hayley with an apologetic look on his face.“I'm sorry for the mistake, Miss Seymour. Please come in.”

Hayley put on a haughty expression as she gave the female securityguard a disdainful glare. “Is this how you guys do your job? You totallyruined my mood.” Then, she allowed Daniel to lead

her into the elevator. Daniel felt cold sweat forming on his foreheadonce they made it there.

Hayley loved it when people provided her with special treatment, soshe gave Daniel a satisfied look. “That was quite good. Elliot didn't saymuch, did he?”

“President Presgrave was a little shocked, but he didn't say much,”Daniel replied. Hayley let out a scoff as she thought, It's just as I hadexpected. It was Old Madam Presgrave, not Elliot, who didn't want toinvite me.

After this event, Hayley developed a sense of hatred toward Harriet asshe felt hurt by Harriet's actions. Anastasia’s going to be here tonight,so I have to seize this opportunity to show her how sweet I am withElliot. Also, from tonight onward, I want everyone to know that I'mElliot's girlfriend. I bet that will piss the old woman off.

Daniel brought Hayley over to Elliot. Many of the guests there wereextremely wealthy people with high statuses, yet Elliot still seemed tostand out in the crowd. It seemed like the people around him were justprops and backdrops that served to enhance his presence.

His aura was too strong for others to steal his spotlight away-it wasalmost as if the light followed him wherever he went. Hayley felt herselfgoing head over heels as she stared at him longingly. She admired him,and she wished she could have him all to herself.

“I'm sorry, Elliot. Should I have stayed home instead?” She gazed at himwith an innocent and flustered look on her face. He curled his lips into asmile. “The HR department missed out on your invitation card. It's fine.My grandma's the one hosting this charity dinner, so you should justenjoy yourself tonight!”
