Louis says coldly, "Find out who bought that pink diamond."
"Sorry, I don't have the authority. Please wait a moment."
After a minute, the manager of the shop is on the phone.
Louis is a big customer of the brand. The manager doesn't dare to delay and quickly goes to find out. "Mr. Smith, the pink diamond was bought by a Mr. John Dawn."
That's what Louis thought.
Louis' expression turns grim, and he is furious.
He was going to give the pink diamond to Lily himself. It took more than half a year to get it made. After breaking off his relationship with Lily, he did not plan to get it from the shop. When the store manager called, all he thought was out of sight, out of mind, so he just told them to sell it.
Unexpectedly, John bought it and gave it to Lily.
"Mr. Smith..." Noticing Louis' silence, the store manager can't help but ask, "Is there a problem?"
"It's fine now," Louis says coldly and hangs up the phone.
Louis busies himself for a while, but he can't calm down. Then he replies a few messages on WeChat.
At this time, he discovers that in one of the group chats of the industry, the people are discussing something excitedly.
A general manager says that Lily is going to his wife's studio to pick out a wedding dress the next day.
If Lily gets married in a wedding dress bought from his wife's studio, it will bring many new customers for the studio since Lily is now a trending topic online.
Louis comes to WeChat's main page, wanting to send a message to Valentina.
After hesitating for a while, he texts Chloe.
--
Past 10 o'clock the next morning, Lily and John set off to go to a high-end wedding gown studio to pick out a wedding gown.
On the way, she says to John, "It's really important for us to get married, but don't tell your father about it. We can go back to Country Y and have another wedding."
"I know what you're worried about." John holds her hand tightly to comfort her. "I only want you. As for other matters, I don't care."
Lily nods, but she is worried.
The whole country knows she and John are getting married. Jonathan should also know about it.
Jonathan has been too quiet during this period of time. Lily thinks that he is planning something big. She is afraid that he will tell Burnell about those things and intensify the conflict between John and Kanna.
She hopes she is just overthinking it.
The manager of the wedding gown studio received a call from Lily yesterday. She knew that they were coming to pick out a wedding gown, so today the studio is in a semi-closed state and does not receive other customers.
The manager takes the two of them to the second floor.
The decoration on the second floor is in the European style. It looks comfortable. Every wedding dress in the glass showcase is beautiful and dreamy.
"Ms. Lily, there is only one wedding dress per style in our studio." The manager smiled and said, "You can choose whatever you want. If the dress needs to be altered, we will do it."
Lily nods her head but then asks, "I've gained a lot of weight recently, so it may not be easy to find a perfect wedding dress for me."
"Don't worry." The manager says, "Just choose what you like. Leave the rest to us."
Lily feels happy to hear that.
Everyone wants to look beautiful on their wedding day and let the camera record it.
But she's pregnant.
Moreover, she discovers that after that week of injections, her belly has grown so big that even loose clothes are almost unable to cover it.
She doesn't want to marry John with a swollen belly.
Lily takes a fancy to a trailing wedding gown with diamonds. She turns around to ask John, "What do you think of this one? There are too many diamonds embedded on it. Will it look too gaudy?"
"No." John asks the manager to take it out of the showcase. "Go try it on. I want to see you in it."
The wedding dress is too heavy. Lily is pregnant and can't put it on herself, so she asks the manager to come into the fitting room to help her. John waits outside.
