Chapter Thirty-Six: Engagement Party
Serena's Bedroom
My baby, your dad and I bought this ring with a lot of love for you, Mrs Leo said while smiling and wondering how Jaden knew Serena's exact ring size.
Wow,it's very beautiful,it's...I can't just explain,I love it.Thank you mummy,she said and hugged her tightly.
But mom, you don't have to put it here,it makes me feel like I'm married, she said attempting to pull it off but her mom quickly stopped her.
Just leave it there,she said with puppy eyes and Serena had to agree. Can't you see that it fits perfectly,she said and Serena nodded in agreement.
By the way mom,what's the party all about, she asked out of curiosity. You'll find out very soon, Mrs Leo said and Serena didn't push the question further knowing the kind of person her mum was.
Serena walked down the stairs accompanied by her mom,she was looking so beautiful, dressed in a black ball gown that glitters due to the tiny pieces of diamond used to design the gown.
The gown is deep V-necked, exposing Serena's fair skin and a little part of her breast. She was adorned with jewelries all made of diamond. She was looking so beautiful just like a princess.
The Leo's Mansion which was originally transformed into a party hall and beautifully decorated was crowded with people(Friends, Families and Business Partners).
Serena smiled at everyone who she could not quite identify because they were wearing mask.
When she got down the stairs,her mother handed her over to a guy who wore black mask and he also helped her put on the same mask as him.
(NOTE: They were the only ones putting on a black beautifully designed face mask while the rest people had different colors of face mask).
He led her to where they were both meant to sit, which was beautifully decorated. While walking, she looked around and saw the alphabets above the seat, he was taking her. "JS", she didn't know what it meant and it was also a design on everyone's table.
Hi, please can I ask what this party is all about, she asked when they were finally seated close to each other. "US", he replied shortly. What, she said because she couldn't hear him quite well. 'What a nice ring you have there, he said starring at the ring on her finger. Ooh this, my mom gave it to me, isn't it beautiful, she said.
Yeah it is, can I see it, he said and she took it off and gave it to him. He held the ring in his hands while smiling and dropped it.
