Half an hour later, Anne knocked on the door and came in. She placed an exquisite gift box on Bertha's table.
'Director, someone sent you this, the recipient's name is your name."
'I know, go do your job."
Waiting for Anne to leave, Bertha stood up and opened the gift box.
It was an evening dress, and the style quite suited her taste, this Kirjani kid was proactive, buying the dress for her.
She laughed and shook her head, glanced at the dress a few times then left it there, continuing to work.
At the end of working hours, most employees began to pack up their belongings. Bertha also let those who wanted to work overtime leave early. It wasn't until almost everyone in the company had left that she entered the elevator. Go to downstairs.
At the entrance of the Angle building, Kirjani drove a silver-gray Maybach and waited for a long time.
Seeing Bertha coming out from inside the building, he unconsciously glanced.
In a snow-white dress, she was so beautiful that she shone, no one could compare.
Kirjani got out of the car, smiled, and ran over, respectfully raising his hand in a gentlemanly manner. 'My beautiful lady, it would be my honor if you could attend the party with me."
Bertha laughed, reaching out to knock him on the head. 'Stop joking around."
Kirjani held her head sadly and spoke angrily. "What I said is true."
Seeing Bertha walking towards the car, Kirjani quickly ran to open the car door for her, not forgetting to continue praising her beauty. 'Sister Bertha, you have an eye for aesthetics, this dress suits you very well. You look so beautiful."
Bertha stopped walking and looked at him suspiciously. 'Didn't you choose this dress and send it to me?"
Kirjani was stunned, a little embarrassed. "I originally intended to choose a dress for you myself, but this afternoon, I was on the film crew, I was so busy that I forgot."
Bertha's expression gradually became serious.
Remember when Anne gave her the gift box that afternoon, she didn't see the sender's name.
Because she and Kirjani called each other, she assumed it was this kid who sent it, so she didn't pay attention.
Now it seems, this is a bit interesting.
Kirjani thought she was angry with him, he asked weakly. 'Sister Bertha, what's wrong with you?"
Bertha didn't explain, her pink lips curled slightly. "Let's go. If we come late, we will miss the play that someone else has arranged."

In the powder room on the second floor, Greer's house mansion.
Laura was still putting on her makeup. Since noon, she had been preparing. Today she must be so beautiful that she would overwhelm everyone. She must become the center of attention of the entire place.
Rose sat next to her, talking non-stop. 'If I hadn't accepted your party invitation, I don't know how long my brother would have banned me from staying at home. If I can't go out, I'm about to suffocate to death."
Laura smiled comfortingly. 'Now that you're out of the house, maybe Derek won't forbid you from going out again in the future."
'I don't know, he's very cold, principled and stubborn." She smacked her lips and continued to complain. "And you too. These past few days, I don't know what you're busy with but you haven't answered my calls. I'm still doubting whether you betrayed me or not."
Laura's face stiffened, and then she held Rose's hand intimately. "How could I betray you, I always considered you a close friend, but you think I'm a traitor, I'm heartbroken."
Rose looked at Laura's extremely sincere expression, she believed. 'I just said that casually, don't pay attention. But I congratulate you, in the future, you can marry my brother as the young lady of Greer's house, which will be very worthy."
Laura's eyes were cold, but when Rose looked at her, her eyes became gentle, and she immediately smiled.
Rose didn't feel anything and continued talking to her.
'However, now you are the official lady of Greer's house, in the future, you will be the successor of the Greer group, your status will be even more insignificant, and that bitch Bertha will not be able to beat you."
This compliment pleased Laura.
She was about to say a few flattering words to Rose when there was a noise outside the door.
It seemed like something fell to the ground.
The two of them looked at each other then stood up and opened the door.
It turned out that the maid brought the dress and accidentally bumped into the cleaning cart of a passing cleaner. The thing fell to the ground and the maid was picking it up.
Rose covered her nose. 'Why does it smell so bad?"
The cleaner was scared and walked over to apologize.
'Sorry miss, I'm almost done cleaning."
Laura frowned in disgust, but with Rose here, she couldn't scold people directly, she just smiled and said gracefully. "Forget it, it's not a big deal. There are many guests today, so hurry up and clean up."
Laura looked towards the maid who was helping. 'Please quickly bring the dress to my room, don't waste my time."
"Yes."
The maid quickly picked up the dress box and went into the makeup room.
When the box opened, it was a snow-white high-waisted fixed-length cocktail dress.
Rose was amazed by its beauty. 'Wow, this dress is so beautiful, is this the work of a famous overseas designer? Sister Laura is the main character of today's party, your parents love you, and I admire you very much."
Laura was praised, she was very happy, and a humble smile appeared on her face. 'No, Rose, you are the princess who has been pampered by Tibble's family since childhood."
Rose took a picture of her and Laura and posted it on social media, along with the text. 'Today is Laura's party, she is really beautiful."
