Chapter 294
Originally, I thought that Shelton would ask me to go somewhere with him.
However, he parked his car in front of a single building in the western city.
It was a glass building. However, because it was made up of two-layered glass with a mirror with different angles in between, we couldn't see what it looked like inside the building when standing outside.
Moreover, because it had snowed yesterday, there was a thin layer of snow on top of the building, making the building dreamy and beautiful.
"This is..."
As I stood there, I was fully attracted by the building in front of me.
"Come in. Then you'll know." Shelton reached out to me.
I held his hand naturally and went in with him.
He pushed the door open for me. After entering the building, I saw a lot of wedding dresses in front of me.
There were various dummies and models in the hall. All the models model wore various wedding dresses.
At a glance, these wedding gowns weren't ordinary ones.
Every one of them was very exquisite.
"They are so beautiful."
"This is a wedding dress designer's studio. I specially made an appointment with the designer to customize a wedding dress for you."
Shelton went close to my ear and stated his purpose to me.
"Mr. Shelton!" At this time, a woman in a beige suit came in.
With her hair coiled up, she put on light makeup.
Although she looked beautiful, I knew that she wasn't the designer at a glance.
"Manager Warren, this is my fiancee." Shelton introduced me to the woman. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Manager Warren quickly reached out her hand and said, "Hello, I'm the manager."
"Hello, my name is Janetta Nolan."
I shook hands with Manager Warren.
"Where's your designer?" Shelton looked around.
"Please wait a moment. The designer will come out soon."
After saying that, Manager Warren left.
Shelton and I stood in the hall with all kinds of wedding dresses around us.
I walked to the front of one of the wedding dresses. And I had to admit that although the dresses here all looked pure white colors, they were lined with excellent lace and got a quite chic design.
At a glance, I knew that the designer had put a lot of effort into it.
"We just settled our engagement date, didn't we? Why are we going to customize a wedding dress so early?"
According to the usual customs of City Y, the ones getting engaged would only hold a wedding ceremony a year later after the engagement ceremony.
Walking to my side, Shelton pulled my hands and said, "This designer is quite famous. Her wedding dress is divided into several grades. And the best one needs to be reserved one year in advance."
"The best?" I looked at Shelton and said, "No need.
I am fine with the one that suits me."
Actually, I didn't want to hold a wedding ceremony at all.
However, Shelton had been expectant from the very beginning. I, who was too embarrassed to disappoint him, could only do everything according to his plan.
Looking at me, Shelton said with a serious look on his face, "No. I once said that I would do everything I could to give you the best."
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
As soon as Shelton finished his words, the sound of clapping rang behind the wedding dress.
However, the sound of clapping rang once at a time, which I found quite weird.
I looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman sitting in a wheelchair. The wheelchair was pure black, looking quite sophisticated. There was a small controller on the armrests on the side. She placed her hand on the controller and gave it a gentle push, making the wheelchair move forward.
When she appeared, I found that Shelton became gloomy. Then he pulled my hand and said, "Let's go."
"Don't go." The woman in the wheelchair went around the wedding dress and blocked in front of us. Looking at Shelton, she said, "Dr. Shelton, long time no see."
Shelton looked quite serious. Seeing him exude hostility all over his body, I was a little scared.
I had never seen him like this before.
Holding my hand with his big palm with a little strength, Shelton said after a while, "Make way for us."
"Dr. Shelton, I haven't seen you for so long. Upon seeing you, I heard you say something that you once said to me to another woman. I am so emotional."
Hearing the designer's words, I felt that something was hitting me hard in my heart.
I looked down at her.
The woman got quite long hair. And she tied up her hair into four braids hanging behind.
Judging from her face, I sensed that she seemed to be older than me. Her skin was slightly loose. Even so, her facial features were delicately outlined and exquisite. With a pair of almond-shaped eyes, a towering nose, and red lips, she looked beautiful and charming at her age.
She had said just now that Shelton had said the same thing to her.
"Could it be that she is Shelton's ex-girlfriend?"
It seemed that I had never heard anybody mention her before.
Shelton lowered his head and looked at the woman, saying with an expressionless look on his face, "I didn't know that you own this studio. Otherwise, I surely wouldn't have come here to
disturb you."
Although he said so verbally, he didn't imply so at all.
It was clear that he didn't want to see her.
The woman looked at Shelton with a faint smile and turned to look at me. After sizing me up and down for a while, she said, "Is this the girl you have been looking for before?" She paused and added, "She doesn't seem to be the one."
"Did Shelton ever look for me?"
"Has Shelton been looking for me?"
I looked at Shelton with a little doubt in my eyes.
Upon hearing the designer's words, Shelton suddenly looked quite pale, "Let bygones be bygones. Both you and I can't live in the past forever. We'll leave first."
"Don't." The designer looked at me, "Since you couldn't put on a wedding dress for me personally, making a wedding dress for your wife is a kind of fulfillment for me."
As she spoke, she curled up the corner of her mouth with sadness in her eyes.
I looked at her and felt that my heart tightened.
My intuition told me that this woman still had feelings for Shelton.
"No need. I don't think it's fair to her." Shelton said, planning to take me away in a detour.
However, with limited space in the house, the designer blocked the door tightly with her wheelchair.
If she didn't get out of our way, we couldn't bypass her with ease.
The designer looked at Shelton and said, "What's wrong? You can't fulfill the promise you made to me before. Neither can you give me a future. And now you want to take away the chance for me to make money?"
There was a faint light in her eyes.
And her words meant more than they said.
She seemed to be of the same age as Shelton. Since she said so, it meant that they should have been together for a long time...
I could relate to why she couldn't get over Shelton.
I looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm sorry. I don't want you to be the designer for my wedding dress."
As soon as I finished speaking, Shelton and the designer both looked at me.
Especially the designer, she couldn't help laughing upon hearing my words, saying, "Dr. Shelton, it seems that you have screwed another woman."
I knew why she said so.
If I loved someone deeply, after knowing that he had once loved someone else in the past, I wouldn't get over it with ease.
Knowing the relationship between Shelton and the designer, I felt somewhat uncomfortable in my heart. Even so, I found it totally acceptable.
Shelton had the same idea as the designer. He said directly, "I'll pay you as usual. But you don't need to design this wedding dress for us anymore."
