Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 258: A lot of fans had expressed their desire to attend the event in person, though they knew it was impossible.

Given the limited space at the venue and the extensive guest list comprising family and friends, Rosanna opted to capture the entire event on film. She planned to later share this recording on social media, treating her followers to an exclusive glimpse.

One issue lingered for Rosanna: she hadn't yet secured a dress that met her standards.

Initially, she had set her heart on making a grand entrance in MCN's renowned Blue Sea gown at the event, planning to give Vince an unforgettable surprise. However, following a fallout with MCN, which led to her being blacklisted, not even pulling strings could secure her access to the desired gown.

Compounding her frustration, Maia had recently worn that very gown for a performance at the Starlight Bar. The thought of Maia wearing the Blue Sea gown enraged Rosanna. How could Maia wear it while she couldn't even purchase it?

Determined not to be outshone by Maia on her own engagement day, Rosanna resolved that she must appear as the most radiant and stunning woman there. This meant finding an even more spectacular dress than the Blue Sea.

As Rosanna dwelled on this dilemma, her phone vibrated. Vince was on the line, extending an invitation to a private dinner party.

Vince made sure to highlight the importance of proper etiquette and even arranged for a set of formal clothes to be delivered for the occasion. Later that evening, Rosanna joined him on a trip to an extravagant estate.

The dinner venue sparkled under brilliant lights, drawing together the most influential figures from Wront's upper circles. Many faces Rosanna had only ever seen on TV or in newspapers were now right in front of her.

Standing at the entrance to the grand hall, Rosanna couldn't help but feel a wave of unease. Moments before stepping out of the car, Vince had quietly mentioned that the host of tonight's gathering was Mariana Cooper, the youngest daughter of the Cooper family's patriarch. The Cooper family sat at the very top among Wront's four major families.

Such a high-end gathering was something the Morgan family had never even had the privilege to know about in the past. But the Ward family played on a completely different level; they were one of the four major families of Wront's elite society. In comparison, the Morgan family couldn't even compete with the Ward family.

Most people viewed Rosanna's upcoming marriage to Vince as the chance of a lifetime. If it hadn't been for the marriage arrangement made by their elders, Vince likely would've ended up with a woman from one of the other three major families.

In the past, Vince was known for bringing a new woman to every event, but tonight things were different. Everyone knew that he was preparing to get engaged to the Morgan family's daughter, and Mariana had personally extended an invitation to him and his fiancée.

Rosanna's heart raced with a mix of nervousness, excitement, and a sense of thrill. She was finally setting foot into the world she had spent her whole life admiring from afar.

Squeezing her hand gently, Vince offered a few simple words, his voice steady. "Relax. Just be yourself."

Rosanna made sure to leave an impression that night. With flawless makeup and the elegant evening gown Vince had personally chosen for her, she immediately drew the attention of several gentlemen. Many lifted their glasses in polite acknowledgment, while a few acquaintances of Vince's strolled over to exchange greetings.

Vince carried every conversation with effortless charm, his presence naturally pulling focus wherever he went. Walking at his side, Rosanna maintained perfect composure, every step and smile carefully crafted to project sophistication and intelligence. Her posture, speech, and expressions were polished to perfection, leaving little room for fault.
