As the car pulled up to the grand entrance of the venue, Eliza felt a rush of anticipation. The building stood majestically against the evening sky, its elaborate façade adorned with twinkling lights that hinted at the opulence within. The large, elegant banner draped over the entrance read, "CRC Corporation Anniversary Gala."
Eliza, dressed in her emerald green sheath dress and black stiletto heels, stepped out of the car, the cool evening air brushing against her skin. Jannie, who had driven her, smiled warmly from the driver's seat. "You look stunning, Eliza. Go knock 'em dead," she said with a wink.
Eliza smiled back, feeling a surge of confidence. "Thanks, Jannie. I'll see you later," she replied, waving as Jannie drove off. Eliza turned towards the entrance, joining a steady stream of well-dressed guests making their way inside.
