Since Raelle had to attend a charity banquet tonight, she didn't plan on wasting a trip going back home. And Cloe already knew the routine of Raelle very well. That's why she had already a rack full of designer dresses for Raelle.
Right after the working hours, Raelle got ready for the evening. Since Cloe would be joining her, she was also dressed up. Both women left the office together in Raelle's luxurious car.
Cloe looked at Raelle's black gown and then looked at her own white gown and suddenly felt like asking, "Chief, you don't like the white color?"
Raelle didn't even turn her head to look at Cloe as she asked, "What makes you think that?"
Cloe shrugged, "You rarely pick white. Your go-to color is red. Your closet must be a dazzling red."
"But I'm wearing black tonight," reminded Raelle.
"So what? Black is comfortable," said Cloe. "You only chose black because there was no dress in red."
"Aren't you exaggerating?" asked Raelle. "I don't think I wear red all that much."
Cloe snorted, "From now, I'll take a photo whenever you're in the red." Thinking of something, she chuckled, "Chief, don't you think we look like two angels? A white, pure angel and the black, fallen angel?"
Raelle looked at her up and down and said, "I think we look more like chess pieces."
Cloe's face darkened when she heard that. Why did she have to start this conversation with Raelle? Her boss's brain really went to all sorts of places. What did she mean by, chess pieces? Even if chess had white and black pieces, it did not mean she could just compare them with that!
In the end, Cloe could only grumble to herself that it was all her own fault for even starting this conversation with Raelle. She really picked up the rock and hit her own foot with it!
After being called, 'chess piece' Cloe settled down quietly. Not like she had any other option right now.
When they arrived at the venue, it was quite lively. The charity event was actually like an annual gala. Not only people from the corporate world would be here, but there were also politicians and even celebrities! So, it was quite a grand affair.
Leaving aside the businessman and politicians, the celebrities were enough to bring a dazzling aura to this event, and perhaps that was the main purpose of the organizers as well. Because with the celebrities came to their fans and the attention of netizens. It might sound offensive but common people really weren't interested in a charity event filled with old and greasy businessmen and foxy politicians.
"We have to walk the red carpet," said Cloe in a low voice.
Obviously, this red carpet was specifically arranged for celebrities to shine. But this red carpet was more like a battlefield for those celebrities. They'd all dress up to the nine to compete and outshine each other. Their only purpose was to get on the trending list. It had always been like that.
On both sides of the red carpet, not only one could see the rows of news reporters but also the crowd of fans who came to support their favorite star. With name boards in their hands, they shouted the names of their favorite stars making the place noisy.
Raelle had to mentally prepare herself before she could walk through this crowd. No matter how she got herself accustomed to loud voices around her, she was still not really used to it.
As their car stopped, Cloe was the first one to alight. She wore an elegant satin A-Line floor-length long gown with a slit. She was already tall but with her stilettos, she looked taller and imposing. She kept a small smile on her face as she stepped out but didn't move as she patiently waited for Raelle to alight down.
Seeing Cloe, the reporters were already curious about her identity. Most of them were from the entertainment media, how would they be familiar with Cloe. But there were also some finance news reporters mixed in the crowd and they obviously recognized Cloe. They might not what President Raelle looked like but they definitely had seen Cloe. And since she was here, their eyes got trained towards the car waiting for the other person to step down.
As Raelle stepped down, she walked down the red carpet with Cloe without looking around. Since they weren't celebrities, there wasn't any need for them to stop or pose for the media.
There was live streaming of the red carpet going on and currently, netizens were in an uproar.
[Fuck! Who is this beautiful celebrity?]
[Is she a celebrity? Why haven't I seen her before then?]
[Maybe she isn't a star.]
[With that face value, how could she not be a star?]
It had to be pointed out that Raelle wasn't really dressed in a dazzling gown tonight. It was a charity event, she didn't think it was a fashion show. In fact, it could be counted as a fashion show but only for celebrities. She wanted to keep a low profile.
And that's why she chose a black casual lace long sleeve ankle-length A-line formal dress with pockets. That A-line silhouette, high-low hemline, V-neckline, perfectly accentuated her body lines. The satin fabric gave off an elegant feeling but it also showed her natural intimidation and status.
Her hair was tied in a stylish bun and a diamond necklace laid on her fair neck. Even on normal days, people would find it difficult to not find her gorgeous much less now that she was all dressed up. But there was a differnce. On usual days, people around her didn't dare look at her straight but today, the crowd couldn't stop from following her down the red carpet.
Cloe wasn't surprised at all to see how Raelle attracted all this attention.. She was actually smug when she saw it. Was it that easy to escape the charms of Raelle Xiang? She demanded attention wherever she went? How could she not even capture the attention of all these face-fans?
