THE BILLIONAIRE'S VENGEFUL WIFE RETURNS
Chapter 99: BIRTHDAY GALA

Chapter 99: BIRTHDAY GALA

A week has passed since Harlow moved in with Andrew. So far both he and his people have been the nicest to her.

There was still no trace of Ava anywhere. According to Andrew, Alanis has not responded to any of his calls or messages. But he would keep trying.

She had no idea why he didn’t want her to speak to Alanis. All Harlow wants is to be sure Aca is alright.

Now seated in her room staring at her reflection in the mirror as the maids combed her hair. Harlow picked up the purple card on her table to stare at it again. She placed it between her fingers as she twirled the card from one side to another and then back again.

She had been staring at the card all week waiting patiently for the day to arrive and here it was.

Today is her sweet sister’s birthday. As the favorite daughter of Frank Blackwood, they weren’t just throwing a normal party, it was a gala. Hosting the most influential people in the country.

She had no idea why Claudia suddenly changed the normal little gathering to a big one. Whatever the reason was, Harlow had her gift ready for her sweet sister. She smiled at her thoughts.

She picked one among the many dress choices before her. And once she was done, the maids helped her with the dress.

"You know Miss Harlow." One of the maids started behind her. "Sir Andrew have never brought any woman home before you. You’re the first and we’re all so happy you’re the chosen one." The maid said unable to hide her tongue.

Their master and this Blackwood girl have stayed together for a week, and though it may seem rushed, they have seen no sign of the two people being intimate with each other in any way.

"You’re mistaken about our relationship. Andrew is a special friend to me." Harlow stood before the floor-to-ceiling mirror staring at her appearance. She looked different in the basil green dress that showed most sensitive parts of her body. She was beautiful. Even she could tell.

She smiled.

A knock came by the door and without waiting to be welcomed in, Andrew stepped in with a smile on his perfect lips.

All of the maids who helped Harlow stepped out immediately, giving their boss and madam the space they needed.

"Why are you here, you know it’s bad luck to see a lady when she hasn’t finished dressing up." Harlow turned to look at him.

"Bad luck got nothing on you sweetheart." He moved an inch closer, placed his hands on both sides of her waist and picked her up from the floor, and placed her on the table.

Andrew picked up her heels and sat on a chair before her. He picked one foot and placed the shoe. "You do know I could do that myself?"

"Why would I let my hermoso stress her beautiful hands."

"Stop flattering me." Andrew smiled and then his face turned serious.

"Are you sure you want to attend your sister’s party after everything she did to you?" Harlow nodded gently with a smile.

"She’s my sister Andrew. She’ll always be that no matter how much we fight and quarrel."

"You have such a kind heart." Harlow chuckled. This is the reason Andrew had accepted Claudia’s invitation in the first place. He knows the Blackwoods will do something stupid, this time he will be there to save the woman he loves. He would never let harm come near her.

"I have a gift for you." Andrew suddenly said standing from where he sat. He held the green-eyed girl’s hands and walked her over to the floor-to-ceiling mirror.

"Turn around," Andrew said and Harlow did as asked. She turned to face the wall-to-ceiling mirror, a small smile hanging on her lips. She watched him place a shadow diamond necklace around her neck.

Harlow recognized the diamond collection immediately. It was Ultra Light Diamond. One of the best diamond makers in the world. She used to want to be like them when she started and now, she has grown to become bigger than they are.

Harlow placed her hands on the diamond. This particular collection was bidded for more than thirty million when it came out. How did Andrew get his hands on such priceless possessions?

"Your dress needed a glow, and I know this is the glow." He said calmly. She has never been cared for by any man except her father.

Is this what love is really about?

If this is love, then she didn’t want it to end. She was tired of being on the giving end, it’s time to be on the receiving end a little.

"Thank you." Harlow placed her palm on the necklace, staring at it as she smiled. It was indeed so beautiful. She couldn’t remember the last time she had worn something this nice. It’s not like she couldn’t get it if she wanted or use her accounts. She could. But that would only lead her father to her.

"We should leave now so that we don’t run late." Andrew picked her earrings on the table and helped her wear them. He arranged her hair properly. "You look so beautiful, Harlow." He complimented her for the second time tonight and she smiled.

"You look good as well Andrew." Both people left the Villa in no time.

After a few minutes of driving, Harlow and Andrew arrived at the Blackwood’s estate. The biggest and most expensive estate in all of the city ranging from 500 million upwards. Harlow wasn’t so happy, the last time she was here, she had done something so terrible.

She had killed someone. It was something she couldn’t believe. Harlow didn’t know what to feel. She hadn’t intentionally harmed that man, he wanted to take advantage of her and she had to fight back. She did nothing wrong.

Harlow and Andrew stepped out of the car when they arrived. She held the hem of her dress from reaching the ground.

There was a red carpet event set at the entrance of the mansion. Claudia must have made her grand entrance by now because those men were about to close the carpet.

"You can go through the entrance, I’ll use the back door." Andrew didn’t argue, he understood the reason she wanted to use the back door.

Harlow stepped inside the mansion through the back door. The maids moved in and out of the mansion. She has thought someone would notice her, but they all seemed too busy to notice her.

She walked through a familiar hallway till she arrived in the grand hall where the party was being held.

"Harlow," Claudia called the moment she spotted her half-sister. She was dressed in a beautiful red dress. Her black hair was perfectly tied into a ponytail with beautiful diamond pins attached to it.

Claudia has stolen everything away from her. Her life, the love of her father. And just a week ago, she tried to set her up too. It’s funny how she thinks Harlow was stupid to not know she was responsible.

She stretched her hands to hug her sister but rather than hug, Harlow’s hands kissed her cheeks hard.

The slap was loud enough to gain the attention of everyone in the room.
