Chapter 65: A Bride Wears White
The three of us definitely make a weird combo at this upscale wedding boutique. The bride-to-be, the groom-to-be and the groom’s stepdaughter slash on-and-off secret lover. Today, as promised Lucien and I will be spending the precious time of our lives in helping Angela pick out the wedding dress of her dreams to use as a guideline to tailor her extravagant wedding dress. One glance at Lucien and it would be clear to anyone that he would rather be anywhere else but here. I, on the other hand, was busy thinking of how to make this day as entertaining for myself as possible.
Since Angela is obviously a VVIP client, the whole boutique has been prebooked in advance to serve us exclusively. This, unfortunately, meant that we had the whole day to spend on helping Angela pick her dress. The boutique manager and the team of staff greeted us warmly as we entered the boutique.
“Miss Angela, we are honored that you have chosen us to craft the wedding dress of your dreams for your big day. Congratulations once again on your engagement!” the middle-aged store manager said while presenting us with her most brilliant smile.
“Thank you, you are very kind,” Angela replied as he linked her arm with Lucien’s.
“We have prepared many dresses for you to try on. I suggest that you start by trying on dresses of different style to see which one suits you best; for example, the mermaid, the ballgown etc.” explained the manager.
The staff escorted Angela into the changing room where they could help her try on the various dresses. Lucien and I sat on the sofa while we waited to see Angela in her many dresses. I couldn’t care less which dress she wore to her wedding and I bet Lucien doesn’t give a damn either. Lucien, as always, is fully concentrated on handling the family business affairs on his mobile. Even though he chose this day because he was ‘free’, it was clear that his ‘free’ day today is still his working day.
After around 10 minutes, Angela emerged in a huge white glittery ball gown coupled with a long white wedding veil on her head. To be fair, the dress looks amazing on her. It showed off the curve of her boobs perfectly and the ballgown made her look like an elegant queen.
“How do I look?” Angela asked excitedly.
I waited for Lucien to give his opinion first.
