Annie leaned close, talking in a hush tone.“Luna Vixen, it's time to prepare for the gala.”I looked at the clock in the conference room, and indeed I had to start preparing else we'll be late.I hadn't even chosen a dress yet, or jewelry or a hairstyle.I hadn't chosen anything.Immediately after breakfast yesterday, I was bombarded with hairstylists, fashion designers, shoe makers, estheticians, jewelers, all inquiring what I wanted for the gala.It was overwhelming.Yes, I've attended events when I was with Kael but I've never had this level of serious and detailed preparation.I knew the gala was a big deal but I didn't know it was this important.Apparently, the Dowager sent them to me so I wouldn't, in her exact words, “ruin the Blackthorn's image because of your poor tastes”.I cancelled all the appointments and now I'm stuck in a meeting with no idea of what I'm actually wearing to this gala.The meeting with the stakeholders of my company was dismissed earlier than planned.
