Chapter 74 Wedding Countdown (3)_1
Two men and a woman entered her rented apartment. They quickly yet discreetly scanned the modest space, a peculiar glint flickering in each of their eyes, but they were all well-mannered enough not to ask any questions. The woman opened the large bag she was carrying and took out several gowns: a white one for the wedding ceremony, a cheongsam for the banquet—in short, a complete set for every occasion. While these gowns perhaps couldn’t compare to Julia Bluen’s bridal gown, their quality was nevertheless top-notch, each worth at least one hundred thousand yuan.
"Miss Bailey, these gowns are all for you. Two days from now, in the morning, our Photo Studio’s makeup artist will come here personally to do your makeup. Then, a dedicated car will take you to the Church," the woman said, handing the gowns to Rachel Bailey with a warm smile. "Miss Bailey, we’re all quite busy, so we won’t disturb you any longer." She then retrieved a business card from the small, elegant purse on her right wrist, offering it to Rachel. "If you have any questions, please call me. This is my card. We’ll take our leave now."
"Okay, thank you for everything," Rachel Bailey said, accepting the card and glancing at it. Hearing they were leaving, she quickly escorted them out.
After seeing the people from Happiness Wedding Dress Studio out, Rachel Bailey immediately closed her apartment door. Back inside, she took the gowns and began holding them up against herself. They were neither too long nor too short; they fit her perfectly.
"Julia sure has an eye for this; each gown fits perfectly," Rachel Bailey mumbled to herself. Although Glades Horne had arranged for them to be delivered, Julia must have been the one who told the Photo Studio her measurements.
She carefully folded each gown and packed them back into the large bag. Rachel Bailey then picked up her phone from the bed, intending to call Julia Bluen to let her know she had received the gowns. But just then, her phone rang—Julia’s name flashing on the caller ID. Rachel chuckled. "That girl and I are really in sync; I was just about to call her, and she calls me first." She pressed the answer button, and Julia’s cheerful voice came through, "Rachel, I’m downstairs at your apartment building. Come on down."
Huh? Rachel Bailey looked out the window. The rain was still falling, showing no sign of letting up, and the wind continued to blow. This weather isn’t suitable for shopping or doing much of anything. Why would my best friend come looking for me now? "Okay, I’m coming down right away."
Rachel Bailey didn’t bother to guess. While still on the phone with Julia Bluen, she quickly stashed the bag of gowns, grabbed her apartment keys, and headed out.
"Three minutes, alright?" Julia Bluen’s crisp, giggling voice came through the phone.
