Chapter 847
The match that was supposed to happen today got pushed to tomorrow because a big shot in the medical world showed up in Westwood. He threw this fancy dinner, and folks from both the medical and business circles were bending over backward to snag an invite. So, the match got bumped to make way for the big shindig tonight.
Josefina decided to take Hattie to her company to pick out dresses. She had already designed evening gowns for the whole family for the event. "Dad, Mom, Dorian, Reid-take your pick. I'm going to take Mom over to the women's section to try on the gown I made for her."
"Josie, you go ahead. I'll help your brothers find something. We're guys anything that looks decent will do. But you and your mom should really go all out and look stunning," Garrett said in a serious tone.
Josefina chuckled at her dad's straightforwardness, finding it quite charming.
Hattie chimed in with a straight face, "You boys better dress up too. If people find out you're Josie's brothers and you look sloppy... well, think about it. You wouldn't want to make Josie look bad."
Josefina couldn't help but laugh at how humorous her parents were.
Even so, Dorian and Calix agreed with Hattie.
Dorian piped up, "Yeah, I'll find something sharp. Can't let my sister down."
Reid joked, "Honestly, with our looks, we could make burlap sacks look good."
Hattie, dragging Josefina along, said, "Josie, let's find something fabulous and leave them to it."
Josefina had designed a stunning deep blue gown for Hattie, tailored to fit her perfectly. With every step, the dress shimmered beautifully.
Hattie looked at the fabric, both surprised and delighted, "Josie, this design is just perfect."
"Mom, I'm so glad you like it."
And Hattie really did love it. "Josie's designs are always on point. The more I look at it, the more I adore it."
"Mom, the makeup artist is here to get you ready. I'll go find a dress for myself. See you soon."
"Okay, Josie. Thank you, sweetie."
Hattie went off with the makeup
artist while Josefina slipped into a sleek black off-the-shoulder gown, which showed off her figure elegantly. Her hair was pulled back, enhancing her grace.
When Hattie returned, all dolled up, she couldn't help but gush, "Josie, you look absolutely stunning."
Josefina smiled warmly, "Mom, you look gorgeous too."
Hattie was thrilled and excited to finally attend an event with her daughter.
When they arrived at the event, Josefina and Hattie turned heads. Who could possibly look away from such stunning dresses and lovely faces?
Josefina said, "Mom, I'll head over that way. Let's keep a bit of distance, alright?"
As Josefina moved away, she bumped into Livia, who was dressed in a lovely pink gown, looking exquisite.
"Josie, I heard Shay and Sydney are here. And guess what? Sylvie's uncle Moss is also coming," Livia said.
Josefina nodded, whispering, "Let's stick to the plan."
Livia gave her a thumbs-up.
Looking around, Josefina spotted a familiar face. Joelle had arrived with Shay The hustle and bustle of the event seemed to overwhelm her, and she carefully watched O everyone's interactions. Content S
Anyone could tell it was Joelle's first time at such an event. Whispering, Joelle said, "Hey, I'll stick with you. I've never been to anything like this, and it's a bit nerve-wracking."
