Chapter 633

Lyla took a few seconds to get used to the bright light before her eyes widened in shock.

A mannequin stood before her, dressed in a grand yet elegant red and black gown, its flowing train

blooming like that of a dark rose.

“It. It's beautiful,” Lyla exclaimed, dazed.

“Lyse had that internationally-renowned designer, Sharon, make this just for you, Lyla!” Mandy

cooed, holding onto Lyla's shoulders.

“My goodness, and here I thought I had seen it all. I still feel like squealing in joy seeing Sharon's

design before my eyes! It's absolutely gorgeous!”

Alyssa had long been used to the world's praise for her designs under her alias, Sharon. Still, it

couldn't beat the joy and pride she felt upon hearing praise from her own family.

She silently basked in her joy, grinning.

“Sharon? This is too precious, Lyse!” Lyla cried, holding Alyssa's hand. Her cheeks were flushed with

joy-

and bashfulness.

“You must have put in a lot of money and effort to get this made, right? You really didn't have to! It

must

have been really difficult!”

"What do you mean difficult? Nothing's too difficult for Alyssa Taylor, daughter of Winston Taylor of

Belbanks. Sharon wouldn't dare refuse a personal request from me, hehe!” Alyssa said cheerfully.

"Wow! Could you get her to make me something too? I want an outfit for biking-like a leather

jacket!”

Colene cried excitedly.

“I've been so into bikes lately, I even joined Belbanks' Bikers’ Club. They have monthly events that

I've

been attending, but I still don't have a proper outfit for them yet. Could you get Sharon to make

something like that for me? I'll pay you!”

Alyssa and Lyla were left speechless.

Sensing how off the atmosphere had become, Colene quickly cleared her throat. “Ahem... 1 don't

think Sharon really makes anything inspired by this industry, so just pretend I never said anything.”

Damn it, she was nearly 40 years old now. When would she grow up?

"Don’t worry, Colene, and Mandy. I'll be sure to ask Sharon to make something for you two when

it's time

"Oh? Isn't Sharon rumored to be very stoic and hard to persuade? How could you possibly make

her

complete more requests after this?” Mandy asked curiously.

Then, she narrowed her eyes. “You... you're not Sharon, are you, Lyse?”

Both Lyla and Co

Lyla and Colene turned to look at Alyssa at the same time.

“Uh, of course not!” Alyssa quickly waved the idea away, laughing awkwardly. “I'm already Alexa; I

can't be

Sharon too. I'm capable, but not that capable.”

Lyla, Mandy, and Colene said at the same time, “Yes, you are!*

Okay, fine. Maybe.

"Wait! There's something else too!” Alyssa called, running behind the mannequin to retrieve a red

velvet.

box before giving it to Lyla.

“I might be busy tomorrow, so I'll give you this beforehand first. Happy birthday!”

Tears of gratitude welled in Lyla’s eyes. She slowly opened the box, revealing a delicately carved

aquamarine ring of magnificent craftsmanship.
