Sin Favorite

PRE-GALA

AUTHOR POV

Nadine and Adrian just drove her parents and sisters to the front gate to go home. After they spend quality time together, it's time to return to their respective activities.

Arga and Athena have an afternoon course schedule. Fiona has to attend her friend's birthday party. While Papa Alan and Mama Diana want to play tennis ball with a group of business partners.

Although they have limited time, Nadine is quite happy with the presence of her husband's family. At least they can treat his longing for Aaron's father and Nathan's brother.

Nadine also greatly appreciates the attitude of Mama Diana who dared to open up and tell in detail about Adrian's problem to her. Deep talk is very helpful Nadine to be able to position herself so that she can face Adrian later.

As much as possible, Nadine will give all the best versions in her to accompany Adrian during their marriage.

"Later tonight we will be present at the Gala Dinner event organized by my business partner, Mr. Wijaya. The event is a kind of charity auction that must be there every year," explained Adrian.

"Why should I go with you?" Nadine glanced at Adrian innocently.

Adrian folded his hands right in front of his chest. "Who is my wife now?"

"I'm.."

"Yes means you are the one I brought! Can't I bring Aunt Magda or the waiter here??"

"That's not what I mean! If we go together to the event, automatically the public will know about our marriage.that's how? Didn't we agree to keep this marriage a secret?"

The deal was clearly written on the contract. Even at Adrian's own suggestion.

"I changed my mind. At the event I will introduce you as my wife. Only in front of business partners, not in the media. Besides, you know for yourself, if the media never shows my face on their page. The public won't know, so everything's safe."

"What are we there for? I don't have any business.mana understand me about the auction event so!"

"You said you wanted to be involved in the search for your brother Nathan, didn't you? And that event is the answer."

Nadine put her shoulders together in a sign she still didn't understand.

"On the Gala show, we'll meet David Malik-Santoso.the father of your ex-boyfriend. We can use that moment to extract information on Nathan's whereabouts."

Nadine tilted her head looking thoughtful. "By way?"

"Later I tell you. There, I want you to distract him. You just need to talk to your ex Sean. Last I know, he still expects you to come back with him isn't he?"

"Where do you know that?"

"What do I not know Nadine? I know everything. Never mind, the important thing is that you groom neatly for later tonight. At 7, you can set the time to prepare yourself. Aunt Magda has ordered me to call the make-up artist and fashion stylist home. You take it easy."

Indeed, Nadine is lazy if she has to deal with her cheating ex-boyfriend, but she also cannot refuse Adrian's orders.

"I can't refuse, can I?"

"Self awareness, good if that's the case.I don't have to bother getting a rejection from you," Adrian breezed in leaving Nadine who was still fixated.

"Basic sucks.." Nadine's inner.

"Mrs, makeup artists and fashion stylists for Madam have arrived" said Chika.

The attention of Nadine who was reading a magazine in the gazebo of the swimming pool was diverted.

"Ohh okay, faster than I thought. Where's she? Is he here?"

"The man is waiting in front of him first. Before I put it in the house, I have to let Madam."

"Take him upstairs, take him to my room. I'll wait there, okay?"

"Every Madam is beautiful..." Chika carries out Nadine's orders

Make up artist and fashion stylist along with their team that has been in special hire by Adrian immediately brought to ride to Nadine's private room.

"Welcome, welcome! It's good to finally meet you, madam. Introduce, my name is Rency, today I will be your personal makeup artist and stylist.."

Beyond Nadine's expectations, she had thought that MUA and her fashion stylist were female, but it turns out, Rency is different from her shadow. He belongs to the category of the woody turn species.

"Okay, we can do this now!" Nadine excited.

The makeup style that will be used by Nadine this time is bold-makeup, because the event is held at night. So the makeup should be firm. And after 1 hour had passed, the makeup and medium-bun of Nadine's hairdo were finally completed as well.

"Here we go...!! It's finished ceu!!" said Rency.

"Wow Regency! You really did a great job with Madam Nadine's face!" praise Aunt Magda who is on the spot.

Nadine flattered. "Thank you, Rency, I'll tell my husband to give you a bonus." she said.

"By the heck, my bonus was overnight with Mr Adrian how? Later make-up fee so free deh.di barter that!" babbles Regency.

"May I, but you don't feel like you've been sprayed? Ahaha.."

"Neither be, be afraid!! If so now the Madam moved to this side yes.we will see what kind of dress is suitable to wear. The lady will choose her own...

Rows of expensive and beautiful dresses have been neatly arranged in the walk in closet room Nadine. She doesn't even know when these dresses were put there, last check.

Nadine held the dress dress in front of her one by one and fumbled the cloth. "Woww.this is all great!"

"All these dresses match your makeup Madam. So choose which one you like. I gave Madam privacy to choose yes.welcome to try," Rency and her team left Nadine's room.

"Is this not too much bi?

"Sir just wants to make sure everything goes well tonight, ma'am. He said you didn't know what kind of dress you wanted to wear, so he decided to buy all this."

"She spent too much money just for one night!"

"I'm sure you have plenty of parties and charity events to attend with Madam. So he obviously didn't waste his money."

Nadine is not sure if Adrian wants to take her again to luxury events as a couple after this.

"Where am I confused to wear tonight? Aunty has advice because I really don't know!

"We start from which dress does Madam like the most, in terms of color and model?"

"The thing is I like all Bi, the dress is pretty. This blue one is so calm and charming, this pink silk looks girly and feminine, while this black dress looks fierce!" Nadine complained.

"Wear the black one.it looks good on you!" suddenly Adrian's baritone voice came from behind.

Slowly Aunt Magda came out quietly with a smile. He wanted to make room for his Master and Madam in order to get closer.

Although shocked by Adrian who suddenly appeared, Nadine still denied it. "What is black? Doesn't it look dark?"

"Wear that!"

"Okay, I changed in the bathroom.Wait a minute don't go anywhere! I want to know your opinion. If it's bad, change it.."

Adrian nodded in understanding. Women's business is always this troublesome.

Busy with his phone, Adrian until not realizing if Nadine had returned from the bathroom.

"Where's nice?"

"Good."

"But I don't know if it's a little too tight, so it's hard to walk."

"Ckk.have used that! If I say good, good. Later you will hold my arm.where it may fall!" adrian's Omelette.

According to Nadine, Adrian is indisputable.

"That's what you wear on your neck and ears?"

Nadine immediately held onto what Adrian meant. "Yes.anting the same necklace.."

"Device, just change it!" adrian frontal.

"No way, this is my jewelry collection that is worth wearing. I'm not there anymore!"

"Wear this!" Adrian presented a medium-sized navy blue velvet box that contained a set of jewelry such as necklaces, rings, earrings, and bracelets.

Nadine looked in amazement at the jewelry. "Is this serious to me?"

"Why? Don't like.here then!" Adrian intends to take back the box he has given to Nadine.

Nadine smiled broadly. "Ishh.kan just ask! I want to, thank my husband", he said in a spoiled tone.

Adrian also became misbehaved because Nadine constantly looked at him.

"Arghhh.Smiling is so sweet, it makes me want to kiss those tiny lips!", Adrian in his heart.

"Quick put on that jewelry and your heels.I'll wait downstairs!" Adrian hurriedly exits Nadine's room before she loses control.
