Chapter 159

Chapter 159 Take My Brothers Away! It was not a clear day with no stars in the sky. There was a sudden gust of wind. The weather forecast was for thunderstorms. They were on their way to Savory Restaurant when it started to rain. Jose stared at the road and told Owen in the back seat, “Mr. Moore, they’re paving the road and there’s terrible traffic ahead. Should we take a shortcut?” Owen remembered the last time he followed Hailey on the trail and immediately told the driver to turn around.

The trail was not on the map and he could only find it by memory. It was so bumpy that Owen had one hand on the seat and the other on the porcelain Suddenly, he frowned. Jose glances at his hand and yelled,;”Mr. Moore, your hand is bleeding!” He reached for the medical kit and put a band-aid on Owen’s hand. “You have to protect your own body. How could you get yourself hurt over that little thing?” Owen just withdrew his hand. “No big deal.” He held the porcelain in his hand on the back seat to keep it from getting scratched and said to the driver, “You can drive slower.” “Yes, sir. It’s a dirt road and it’s muddy when it rains. We’ll turn onto the main road in a minute.” Owen responded flatly, “Hmm.” He looked out the window. ‘Her brothers are all there. She must be happy tonight.’

Randal arrived soon. He and Kyle hadn’t seen each other in a long time. They hugged and exchanged pleasantries, and Kyle looked curiously at the bag in Randal’s hand. “Randal, what’s that?” “A birthday gift for Hailey.” Randal looked at Hailey and said gently, “Your hairpin matches the costume I brought.”

“Costume?” Hailey was already shocked by Kyle’s and Brook’s gifts. She hadn’t expected Randal to bring her a “surprise” too! However, the moment it was taken out of the bag, she stared. “Is this… the one Princess Lily wore?” Randal nodded with a smile. Hailey’s eyes lit up. It was truly a surprise!

Speaking of Princess Lily, Kyle said, “Oh, it’s the dress the heroine wore in the TV series you were obsessed with as a kid, right?” Hailey was obsessed with TV series as a kid. She was immersed in them when she was kept in her home by her parents. Brook said, “I remember you loved Princess Lily and disguised yourself as her at home when you were little. You cut up several of Mom’s dresses and scarves to make costumes. Mom chased you with a baseball bat and you ran thirteen blocks to me for help…” “Brook!” Hailey said awkwardly, “It’s all in the past.” Her angry and shy face amused her three brothers. Everyone did something stupid when they were little, didn’t they? Randal looked tenderly at Hailey. Even his father didn’t know that he chose to become an actor not to follow his father’s footsteps but to fulfill Hailey’s dream. He wanted to play the role she loved and let her see him in TV series.

Hailey really liked the costume. “Randal, where did you get it?” “I asked Ivana to make it. The original one is now in the museum. I had Ivana make a copy of it, and Jamie helped a lot.” “Ivana is so kind.”

Hailey nodded and pressed the costume to her chest. “So is Jamie!” Then she gave Randal a sweet smile. “Randal, thank you. You’re dependable.” Kyle and Brook couldn’t help but complain. “Hey, are you saying we’re not dependable? We prepared gifts carefully too!” “Yes! We worked hard at them too!”

They were on the same side at times like this. “You’re all dependable.” Hailey bowed to them. She had to be humble. After all, she had taken their gifts. Randal chuckled and said, “This costume is your size.

Go change into it. Ester will help you.” Ester was his assistant, majoring in costumes. She accompanied Hailey to the dressing room. After a while, Hailey came out of the dressing room in costume. The moment she came out, everyone’s eyes were on her. Randal was surprised and Kyle and Brook stood up with excitement. Jeremy came out with a dish and was attracted to Hailey again.

The staff all exclaimed, “So beautiful…” Hailey slowly walked out. It was not a traditional costume but a princess dress with modern elements. As one of the three treasures of Southern Star, Ivana Walter was an avant-garde artist and costume designer. She combined modern art with classical elements and made the costumes in the TV series Princess Lily. At the time, it was avant-garde and controversial.

The phoenix hairpin was still in Hailey’s bun. Her beautiful shoulders were covered by a layer of tulle.

The red dress covered in sequins shone in the light. The classical and modern elements fit well together and made her the center of attention. Jared ran in through the rain and was startled. “I’m sorry.

I’mn in the wrong place.” Then he rushed out. ‘Wait, I’m not.’ He looked up at the sign and made sure he wasn’t in the wrong place. He went back and everyone laughed at him. Kyle walked over and gave him a hug, “Jared, it’s been a while. Why have you become dumb?” “You’re dumb, brat!” Jared was only gentle with Hailey. He slapped Kyle hard on the forehead. Ignoring Kyle’s grimace, he stared at Hailey and shouted. “Hailey, did you travel to ancient times?” Hailey rolled her eyes at him. “I wish I could. This is the costume Randal made for me. Does it look good?” She twirled around, her dress flaring. She looked as beautiful as a mermaid.

When she stopped, Jared took a small bow out of his pocket, handed it to her, and said seriously, “It looks like I got you the right gift. You must carry this bow with you to protect yourself. It was more useful than a gun in ancient times.” Hailey looked at the bow in her hand and the corner of her mouth twitched. ‘What’s wrong with my brothers? Mom, take them away!’
