Chapter 982
As soon as the words were shared, Elijah felt a cold gaze upon him.
A chill ran down Elijahâs spine, sending an inexplicable shiver through his body.
He knew that this was the wedding dress that his fiance loved the most, and as a man, he shouldnât
cower before wealth and authority.
âThis wedding gown holds a special significance for us. Iâm sorry, we wonât sell it no matter what price
you offer,â Elijah added.
Aurora was a little disappointed, but she came from a respectable background and could not bring
herself to forcefully take the dress. Moreover, she had openly misunderstood the relationship between
Elijah and Vicky, so it was near impossible to push this matter into her favor knowing that Vicky was
involved.
âA virtuous person shouldnât take away what others love. Since thatâs the case, letâs forget I asked,â she
said, turning around and holding onto Tylerâs arm. âTyler, letâs go and look at other dresses.â
Tyler withdrew his gaze and replied with a faint hum.
Throughout the entire exchange, he did not utter another word. Before leaving, Tyler sneaked a glance
at Vicky with a seemingly subtle and calm look that held a tangible
presence.
Vicky felt an inexplicable unease deep in her heart.
Only after the two figures disappeared did Elijah speak, feeling somewhat puzzled. âMs. Shaw, you
know those people?â
Vicky remained silent for a few seconds and then replied,â Yeah, I do, but weâre not very close.â
Elijah soon realized that Vicky might not be close with the couple either; after all, the couple mistook
Elijah as Vickyâs fiance.
Fortunately, he had encountered such situations before and did not pay it much mind. Instead, he said
to Vicky, âMs.
Shaw, please take a look and see if thereâs anything else that needs improvement.â
Vicky quickly snapped back to reality and refocused on her work.
Elijah was very involved with his wedding and was one of her most meticulous clients, and by the time
they finished discussing the initial design plans, it was already past nine oâclock.
Just as they prepared to leave, Vicky bumped into Aurora, who was trying on wedding dresses.
Aurora had a radiant smile on her face and was dressed in a pure white wedding gown â she
resembled an unreachable fairy that was filled with nothing but happiness.
It was no wonder the store staff went to great lengths to shower Aurora with exaggerated compliments.
Vicky felt hurt by all the sounds of laughter surrounding Aurora.
Vicky quickly averted her gaze.
As they walked out of the bridal shop, Vicky said to Elijah,â Mr. Harrisons, letâs end here for today.â
Elijah nodded and asked, âWhere do you live, Ms. Shaw? Do you need a ride back?â
âThereâs no need to trouble you, Mr. Harrisons.â Vicky smiled and declined. âIâve already called a taxi.â
âWell then, thank you for today.â
Vicky nodded.
She knew that Elijah was just being polite instead of actually offering to send her home.
After the two left, a paparazzo hiding in the shadows examined the photos in his camera as a hint of
excitement appeared on his face.
He made a phone call and spoke with a restrained, excited voice, âI have exclusive breaking news! You
remember how Elijah is getting married? I managed to snag some photos of his hidden fiance! What do
you think she looks like? Well⦠Sheâs quite beautiful. I can see why Elijah kept her a secret for so long.
You know⦠his female fans will be quite heartbroken after this!â
In the bridal shop, Aurora stood before the mirror, continuously scrutinizing her reflection. A sweet
smile played on her lips as she swayed.
âTyler, what do you think of this dress?â
âItâs alright,â he said carelessly.
Aurora stiffened, Tyler had the exact same response to every dress she tried on thus far.
She turned around to study the look on his face, only to realize that Tyler was not looking at her at all.
She followed his gaze and paled.
She was aware that Tyler had not been showing any interest in what she wore ever since he entered
the shop, and had she put up with it. However, since they ran into Vicky, Tylerâs attention had clearly
been drawn toward her.
