Chapter 1220
Cordy headed to Zoe's home before six in the morning on the day of the wedding, though Zoe had just gotten out of bed and was barely awake.
Seeing Cordy and Quinn arrive, she mumbled feebly,"
Getting married is... taxing."
"And you were looking forward to it so much," Quinn teased.
'No way. Jay insisted-l had no say in it."
"Stop bragging," Quinn snapped.
Zoe stuck her tongue at Quinn and smiled.
Despite her complaint, Zoe had to admit that she felt great.
With that, all three of them started to put on their makeup on the makeshift dressing table, and it certainly took them a while-especially Cordy, who was not done even after Zoe's complicated bridal makeup was complete.
Were they trying to make her the belle of the ball?
Her ego actually felt a little hurt for the first time ever, since she always thought of herself as a natural beauty who did not need much makeup.
After a long while, she asked, "Wait, there's still more?!"
"Sorry, Ms. Sachs, but I guess I'm a little lacking in skill and taking too much time," the makeup artist said apologetically. "But don't worry, I'll make sure that you're gorgeous!"
Cordy was skeptical, since the makeup artist's skill was not lacking at all.
Still, she did not dwell on it. "It's alright-something simple will do. I'm not the bride, let alone the main event."
"That won't do," Zoe suddenly snapped, and she told the makeup artist, "Ignore that woman. Make her as beautiful as you can."
Then, turning to Cordy, she added sternly, "Do you think I'm afraid that you'd steal the spotlight from me? I wouldn't have asked you to come if I was-and you're going to steal the spotlight anyway."
Cordy stopped arguing about that, although she felt like they were wasting a lot of time.
