Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld
Chapter 298 Richael Helps Lela to Meet Her Idol

However, Richael walked past them, directly towards Lela, then took her hand and walked into the venue together.

Unnoticed by the crowd, the elegant Richael left with a slender girl whose Starlit Brand gown showcased her beautiful back.

Conversations sparked among the staff.

"Her back is so beautiful."

"Who is that girl holding Richael's hand?"

"I recall the Gomez family doesn't have any female descendants."

"I want to be held by Richael, too."

"If the Gomez family knew what you were thinking, you'd be done for."

The staff quickly shut up.

As all eyes remained fixed on the red carpet, no one noticed two tall and handsome men exiting a luxury car at another entrance and making their way directly into the music hall. Richael held Lela's hand, and the Gomez family's bodyguards skillfully surrounded Richael and Lela.

Richael asked, "Lela, didn't I tell you to wait for me inside? How did you end up mingling with the staff?"

If it weren't for Lela's attention-grabbing beauty, she might not have found her at a glance.

Lela, held by Richael, didn't resist and didn't answer the question. Instead, she said, "Richael, you look stunning."

Richael smiled indulgently, "Not as stunning as you."

Lela smiled.

The venue's manager swiftly came out to greet them and respectfully guided Richael and Lela to the award ceremony. Inside, the lights dazzled magnificently.

The first row was usually reserved for people from the capital camp, such as investors and company presidents.

However, Richael was directly arranged in the first row.

After all, no one dared to offend the Gomez family, and they were treated with the highest respect.

Richael didn't want to make things difficult for anyone, so she didn't refuse.

The venue was filled with well-known people, and a glance around revealed many famous figures from the entertainment industry.

Richael didn't know that Lela was a Mutant, nor did she know how much suffering and darkness Lela had endured before meeting Sylvester.

She only knew that Lela was a girl Sylvester picked up on his way back, with a gentle personality and beautiful appearance, so she was very kind to Lela. Richael held Lela's hand, leaned close to her ear, and softly said, "Lela, is there any celebrity you like here? I'll get an autograph for you."

Lela turned to look at Richael and said, blinking, "Yes!"

"Who is it? I'll get the autograph for you."

Lela said, "Right in front of me."

Richael was stunned for a second and then smiled.

The award ceremony commenced, with the host, adorned in an extravagant gown, taking the stage to deliver a speech and enliven the atmosphere. Behind them sat Cosmo and Ruby.

Ruby was wearing a fresh green gown and exquisite makeup on her face, but her hair wasn't well done, reducing her pure look.

Cosmo kept praising, "Ruby, you look so beautiful. When you go up to receive the award later, you'll definitely stun everyone." Ruby looked delighted.

Soon, she would be the focus of the entire event.

Lela sat in front with a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips.

Lela thought, 'Stun everyone?'

'It would be more accurate to say she will shock everyone.'

Suddenly, Ruby saw Lela wearing a Starlit gown in front of her, and felt a surge of jealousy. Pointing at Lela's back, she said to Cosmo, "Cosmo, look at her; she's wearing a Starlit gown." "Who is she?"

Cosmo gazed at Lela's back and experienced a sense of familiarity, which also evoked a touch of unease.

Just as she was about to lean in for a closer look, Lela stood up and said, "Richael, I'm going to the restroom." Richael replied, "Lela, do you want me to go with you?"

Lela said, "No, thank you. You can sit tight."
