The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 169

Aron found out that Mandy had sent out an invitation to Isla, but he did not make a fuss about it. He wanted his grandpa as well as Becky to be complacent during this period as he needed time to find out the real cause of his grandma's coma.

Rachel's birthday party was held in a five star hotel in the downtown area. The hotel was decorated in complete luxury, perfect for such a celebrity like Rachel.

Rachel had arrived early and was waiting for Yvonne there.

Instead of nagging Charles to drive her to the party, Yvonne went alone. With three hours before the birthday party, Yvonne called a taxi and went straight to the hotel.

After several years of struggling in show business, Rachel was able to snatch a wide range of contacts and got acquainted to many different people. And these people expected at this party were the rich and famous. It was an exclusive party and not everyone was in the guest list. It was strictly by invitation only.

Yvonne showed her invitation to the bodyguards and then went straight to Rachel's dressing room. Rachel was finally relieved to see Yvonne. "I have been waiting for you for a long time. Thank God! You are finally here!"

"Miss Bai, you look so pretty today." Yvonne quickly gave her a compliment. Rachel was dressed in a white gown adorned with many small pearls. Her long brown hair was curled and highlighted by a lily-shaped hairpin. The crystal high heels showed off her slender legs. She looked like an enchanting rose in full bloom.

Yvonne thought Rachel would be glad to hear such a compliment. However, Rachel just burst into a sneer after hearing that.

It was Charles who bought the white dress for her, but Rachel still felt furious since her favorite dress was taken away by Autumn. At the thought of this, resentment rose from her chest, making her indignant towards Yvonne's ill-timed compliment. Smiling grimly, she said to Yvonne, "Well, your flattery is not necessary. It doesn't work on me."

Yvonne felt awkward and embarrassed upon hearing this, but quickly recovered and said, "Fine. Miss Bai, I have prepared everything you asked me to. And have you selected the best man for this job?"

Rachel grimaced and hesitated. The best person for this job was Sam, but he had gone abroad, so it still remained a challenge.

Rachel kept sneering and replied, "You don't have to worry about it. Many famous stars will be present today, so it will be natural for her to fall in love with one of them. I am sure Charles wouldn't suspect anything."

"Okay. That sounds good.." Yvonne also laughed scornfully and was relieved.

Approaching the birthday party, Becky walked in with Aron hand in hand. She was dressed in a long golden dress. The skirt which was made with smooth silk, had a wave-like shape and glittered in the light. This well-made dress was perfect for her slender figure. Her hair was braided into a gorgeous and complicated long plaque, mixed with golden silk which was quite eye-catching.

The media had gotten to know of their coming wedding, so as soon as they entered the banquet hall, reporters and camera men all rushed and gathered around them. Under the colorful spotlights, Becky shone with her quiet smile while Aron stood beside her without emotion. If not for the smile on Becky's face, the reporters would suspect that something was going on between them.

"Try to smile, Aron. Don't be expressionless, okay?" Becky got close to Aron and then whispered to him, but it gave the reporters an illusion that they were very intimate with each other, and they were actually pretty convinced.

However, Aron just stared with great dissatisfaction and still remained cold faced.

"Mr. Gu and Miss Zhang, I heard that your wedding is coming soon. Is Miss Zhang pregnant?" Many people thought that Becky was pregnant since their wedding was to be held in such short notice. The reporters took advantage of Rachel's birthday event and asked them directly.
