“Lazy piggy, the sun’s out and it’s time to wake up. The stylist will be here later with the evening gown.”
He softly gave her a peck on her forehead.
“You’re the lazy pig,” she opened her eyes and scolded back.
However, her eyes were overflowing with affection.
He chuckled. Although her appearance was different, her eyes were still as seductive as before.
“Darling, let me help you get dressed.”
The man walked toward the wardrobe.
“I don’t want your help. I can do it myself.” She pushed him out of the room. In the dressing room, she was distracted upon seeing those brilliant eyes in the mirror.
This man had proved with his actions last night that he did not mind her facial disfigurement.
She had to admit that she found a new sense of peace after last night.
10:00 a.m.
The stylist showed up with an off-shoulder light blue evening gown.
It looked simple on its own but it completely transformed Cate. The dress was covered with tiny diamonds that resembled stars falling from the sky. She walked out of the dressing room like a princess from a faraway castle, every step of hers alluring yet elegant.
The stylist also styled her hair into big wavy curls with the front bangs covering half of her face. Her round eyes looked especially lively beneath the curls.
Her milky smooth fair shoulders were exposed by the off-shoulder dress, looking impeccable.
“Young Madam, you looked remarkable today. This evening gown was designed by BonnyKing, the best designer from Country F. Not only does it cost more than 50 million, but it’s also the only one in the entire world.”
Cate was slightly surprised. She did not expect the gown to be of such background.
“I heard Miss Yule was planning to wear this for her engagement ceremony but it’s not something you can simply buy with money,” the stylist said with a smile. “You’ll definitely be the center of attention in the ceremony tonight.”
Honestly, Cate was impressed with Shaun’s effort.
11:00 a.m.
Shaun came home from work to pick Cate up.
She stepped forward to grab his hand, and her eyes sparkled like the stars in the night sky. “I really like this evening gown.”
“That’s what matters.”
He said with raised eyebrows. As long as she was pleased, it was worth him spending all night stealing this evening gown from Melanie.
On the way to the hotel, the car came to a halt at the intersection, waiting for the traffic light to turn green.
Cate suddenly noticed something outside the window and felt her heart flutter. “Pull up at the front of the road. I want to get something from the pharmacy.”
“What do you need? I’ll go.” Shaun looked her in the eye.
“Um… birth control pills,” she replied unnaturally.
“Actually, we can think about having kids,” he said with a serious look, “I’ll be a good father.”
“…” She had no words to reply to him. Their relationship was too unstable for having kids.
Besides, she still had to take care of many problems.
“I don’t want kids now. I’m still a kid myself at this age,” she said, turning her face away. Her voice reeked of determination.
“Alright. I’ll get you the pills.”
The car pulled up at the roadside. Shaun entered the pharmacy alone. “I’d like some Vitamin C tablets and birth control pills.”
The salesperson at the pharmacy got him what he requested.
Right there and then, he swapped the contents of the bottles in front of the salesperson.
“…” The salesperson was speechless.
Would a handsome man like him need to trap a woman with kids?
Upon getting into the car, Shaun handed over the pills and a bottle of water to Cate. “I’ll let you off the hook this time but pills like these aren’t good for your health. I’ll use protection next time.”
Next time…
She glared at the man with embarrassment after glancing at Hadley who was sitting in the front. This shameless man.
“My girl, it’s nothing to be shy about. Aren’t we husband and wife?” Shaun smiled mischievously.
“…” She refused to reply.
Forget it, the conversation would only get worse.
…
Pavilion Intercontinental Hotel.
This five-star hotel by the ocean was only built in recent years.
It had a private beach and seven restaurants that served delicacies from all around the world.
Numerous wealthy people and celebrities loved throwing their lavish weddings at this popular spot.
The engagement ceremony was held at the private beach and garden.
Melanie was enjoying the compliments from her guests.
“Charlie is so generous that he even reserved the entire hotel for you,” Aunty Irene said with a smile.
“That’s right, Melanie. I’m so envious,” Yvonne Yule, Melanie’s cousin, echoed.
“You two are exaggerating. As a matter of fact, Charlie is the investor of this hotel or else he wouldn’t have reserved the whole place,” Melanie boasted as if she was talking about the Versaille Palace.
“Oh wow, so this hotel actually belongs to Charlie! I heard that the hotel’s turnover for this year is among the top three of all hotels in Australia. That’s impressive.’
“That’s right.” Melanie shifted her gaze toward Charlie who was being surrounded by the crowd. The man was quite attractive, although not as handsome or fit as Eldest Young Master Lyons. Besides, his future was full of opportunities and potential.
Everyone from the Lyons family was present today, not to mention the other influential names in the politics and business industry. She felt distinguished for having these guests at her engagement ceremony.
This was the wedding she had been dreaming of.
Shaun would probably regret his choice when he arrived later. It was his fault for not wanting to marry her.
Plus, there was Cate as well. That disfigured woman must be so envious of her.
“Look, Eldest Young Master Lyons is here! He’s accompanied by Cate Cox.”
Aunty Irene shouted out of the blue.
Everyone present at the private beach turned their heads to the entrance. Shaun came in while dressed in a white tux. He rarely showed up in public events wearing white but right this moment, he resembled Prince Charming from all the fairytales. The other male guests present could not compare to him.
Besides, Charlie, the groom-to-be, was also dressed in a white tux today. He looked so average in comparison to Shaun’s charming appearance.
Enraged, he smashed the wine glass in his hand.
On the other hand, Melanie had also failed to compose her emotions. This was because she noticed the light blue evening gown that Cate was wearing at the moment.
She had wanted to wear that piece of masterwork from expert designer BonnyKing for her engagement ceremony yet she failed to get her hands on it despite offering a lofty sum. However, Cate now showed up at the ceremony wearing that exact dress.
