Chapter 661 Grace Amazes the Audience Again
Grace was ready, just waiting to go on stage.
She had changed into the dress designed by Angela. This time, Angela's design was particularly sexy. The first dress was a long gown that reached the floor. Grace, already tall, looked even more statuesque in high heels. The back of the dress was open, revealing her delicate shoulder blades like butterfly wings poised to take flight.
Angela couldn't even imagine the reaction when Grace walked out in that dress.
"Grace, you have a kind of beauty that just doesn't care about the consequences."
"Is that an insult or a compliment?" Grace joked back.
"Of course, it's a compliment. Lucky for me, we've been friends since we were kids, or I'd be dying of jealousy."
As Grace's friend, Angela didn't feel much envy, more a frustration that she wasn't a man who could marry Grace.
Angela herself was quite beautiful and satisfied with her looks. She knew her face had brought Grace a lot of trouble. Compared to that, she wished Grace could live a simpler, less troublesome life.
"Hurry, it's almost your turn, Grace. Get ready!" Angela heard the backstage crew calling and pulled Grace to the edge of the runway.
Grace took a deep breath, her eyes focused ahead.
When the previous model returned, Grace stepped out.
Though she hadn't had professional training, her walk was impeccable. She exuded confidence and radiance, as if she had a natural glow.
As Grace walked out, the audience erupted in gasps.
"It's Iris!"
"I came just to see Iris. She's still so beautiful. She always wears a scarf, so mysterious. I'm really curious about what she looks like. Those eyes are etched in my heart. I can't even imagine how stunning her face must be."
"Do you know the CEO of DG Group? She's also a beauty. I wonder who's more beautiful, Iris or her?"
"This dress looks amazing, like it was made just for her. The designer really knows their stuff!"
With her face covered by a veil, no one could see Iris's features. Grace looked at the center of the runway, which had been empty but now had an audience.
It wasn't Xavier. A flicker of disappointment crossed her eyes, but she was used to it by now, wasn't she?
Grace quickly pushed the thought aside and walked to the end of the runway, then turned to head back.
She didn't notice the man standing behind a large pillar in the corner, his eyes fixed on her.
Even after Grace finished showcasing the outfit and returned backstage, Killer's gaze remained locked on her.
Killer couldn't take his eyes off her, utterly captivated.
He couldn't shake his worry. Even though he had warned those people not to harm Grace, he was still concerned that there might be others at the show with bad intentions, so he had come secretly.
He didn't make his presence known, staying in the corner instead.
The earlier part of the show featured many beautiful models, but none of them interested Killer. Only when Grace appeared did it feel like a light had pierced his world.
Killer had always thought people were just people, nothing special. Everyone was the same, just with different faces, but to him, they all looked alike.
He had never felt moved or shocked before. Maybe he was just cold-blooded. His world was dark, filled with endless tasks and killing. There was no beauty, only blackness.
But when Grace walked out on the runway, it was like his world suddenly lit up.
Everything around him seemed dull and colorless, except for Grace, who shone like a beam of light. It felt like a powerful current surged through him, making his chest tingle and tremble.
Grace's dress wasn't overly revealing, just showing a bit of her back. Her wavy hair cascaded down, covering much of it. Her face was hidden, yet she still left a lasting impression.
No wonder people were so obsessed with her. She truly was a rare beauty.
Killer didn't consider himself a pervert, but at that moment, he had the urge to hide Grace away, not letting anyone else see her.
His mind flashed with familiar images, like something from a dream. A figure with a hidden face, elusive and untouchable.
But now, that figure had become real, standing before him. Her face overlapped with Grace's, stunning and exquisite.
Even though Grace had gone backstage to prepare for her next appearance, the audience was still buzzing from her previous walk.
"Iris is truly Iris. How can she blend innocence and sexiness so perfectly? If she were my girlfriend, I'd be over the moon."
"I have an idea. Let's go backstage later and see what she really looks like. Trust me, I can get us in."
Someone even said, "I've had my eye on this woman for a long time. Tonight, I have to get her to spend time with me, or I'll make sure she can't work in the modeling industry anymore!"
Killer's brows furrowed upon hearing this.
As expected, there were still many vile people around. If he hadn't come today, Grace might have faced a lot of trouble.
These disrespectful, lecherous people didn't deserve to exist in this world!
...
After her first walk, Grace quickly changed into her next outfit.
This time, it was a short dress, different from the previous long gown. The hem had a bit of fringe, hugging Grace's legs. Her long, straight legs looked even more radiant under the lights, more perfect than any leg model's.
Her hair was casually pinned up, giving her a bold and confident look. The only constant was the scarf hanging from her ears.
Wearing 4-inch heels, every step she took was filled with confidence, without a hint of nervousness. When she placed her hands on her hips, she truly looked like a queen making her entrance.
As she appeared again, the audience's chatter grew even more intense.
"She's stunning, an absolute gem. Watching Iris walk the runway is always a treat. No wonder people are willing to pay so much for a ticket when they know Iris will be there."
"If those heels stepped on me, I'd be in heaven."
"Look at that figure, so full of charm!"
"Did she just look at me? She looked at me three times! What does that mean? Is she sending me a message, asking me to meet her backstage after the show? Or maybe she wants me to find her in the middle of the night?"
