"You are coming with me tonight as my personal executive escort," Julian announced, handing her the garment bag. "Victoria Vance will be there, and I need someone by my side whose loyalty cannot be bought at any price."

Julian stepped closer, reaching out to gently lift her chin so her eyes met his. "Tonight, you are the most valuable person in that room, Abigail; put on the dress."
