In the fashion design world, only one person would dare to embroider his signature prominently on both sides of the fabric–King.
He was a mysterious figure, with only four of his works known to the public. Each piece had won prestigious awards and was priced exorbitantly. One of his creations, ‘Sunshine, was even specially curated. by the Maldonia Museum.
If any other designer achieved such fame, they would likely seek to make a lot of money, attend interviews, and appear on various shows. But not King-
He stayed clusive, rarely producing new pieces, and no one had ever seen his face.
Milly’s fingers trembled. “Leon, this dress must be expensive, right?”
The Smiths are just an ordinary working–class family. How could they afford such an expensive dress?
“No way, I can’t accept this. You have to return it.” Milly quickly pushed the dress back into his hands. High–end, bespoke designs like this were usually sold through exclusive ateliers and might not even be returnable.
Leon chuckled at her reaction, finding it amusing how she treated the dress like a hot potato.
He smiled reassuringly. Take it. The dress isn’t that expensive.”
Milly didn’t believe him for a second. “How could it not be?”
This is a King creation!
A piece of fabric from King, let alone a dress, would fetch an astronomical price. How could it be cheap?

“Okay, I’ll accept it, then. Thanks, Leon.”
Leon felt a rush of joy seeing her happy.

Just then, an annoyed voice interrupted their moment. ‘Milly, are you done yet? If you don’t come back soon, Jonathan will finish all the shrimp!”
It was Anthony.
Milly frowned, glancing at him. “What are you doing out here?”
Anthony huffed, smelling of garlic shrimp. “What am I doing? You’ve been ut here forever and haven’t come back. As your real brother, of course, I had to come and check on you, my real sister!”
He emphasized ‘real brother‘ and ‘real sister heavily while standing on tiptoe and glaring at Leon, his eyes full of hostility.
Every time Milly sees him, she’s overjoyed. Hmph! What’s so great about this man anyway? Always smiling like a sly old far–it’s infuriating!
Milly stood still, holding the box and looking at Leon with reluctance.
“But…
When Milly looked back, Leon had already disappeared.
Back at the villa, everyone seemed to be waiting for her, especially Jordan, who stood with his arms. crossed and a dark expression on his face. His plate was clean, indicating he hadn’t eaten yet.
