Once, when Janet and Roma went inside the store, they were attacked by a bunch of stray dogs.
Fortunately, the bodyguards and Roma reacted fast, so Janet was not harmed at all.
Later on, there were rumours about Janet's store. Some customers mentioned that they got food poisoning from eating Janet's desserts.
These incidents did not bother Janet at all because she knew that she had Daniel to help her with these issues.
Soon, December came.
Two days before her wedding, Janet finally got to see her dress., It was a cheongsam, a Chinese embroidery dress.
It had never occurred to her that Daniel would prepare such a dress for her!
He was also very thoughtful as he ordered a matching cape with prints of wild roses. As the ceremony would be held in winter, he was concerned that she might get cold. The cape was hand-made and cost a fortune.
One of the boxes sent to her had a phoenix coronet in it...
Janet slowly caressed the fabric of the dress. The delicate embroidery was simply breathtaking.
She thought he would give her a Western-style wedding. But she personally preferred a wedding with both Eastern and Western influences.
It seemed that they had the same idea.
Sally smiled and urged her to try the things on, "Jane, put them on quickly, and let me see!"
She trusted that the things her brother chose for Janet were the best!
However, Janet shook her head, "Not now."
"Why? You need to see if they fit or not!"
Janet shook her head again and said, "They are so beautiful. I am afraid..."
She really appreciated the things Daniel had sent her. She wouldn't wish to have them altered whether they fit or not.
She would wear them just the way they were.
On the second day of December.
Like all the brides in the world, Janet was woken up by her mother early in the morning so Janet could have her hair and make-up done.
It was only five in the morning, but the Mansion No.8 was already packed with people.
Random voices were heard around the house. "Quiet! The two girls are still sleeping!"
"Hey, mind your voice, the elders are not up yet!"
"I saw the old lady just now..."
"How about the twins? Shhhhhhhh..."
...
Janet sat in front of her vanity table, listening to the people outside of her room with a smile.
The room was prepared yesterday. Behind her stood two celebrity make-up artists, who were hired for the occasion. They were going to doll her up as glamorous as they could.
Three fashion stylists were also inside the room, waiting to dress her up after the make-up. Janet was to wear a traditional Chinese dress on her wedding. Therefore, her hair would be braided accordingly.
Her hair would match her dress. The wedding would have a strong touch of Chinese accents.
Around seven in the morning, all of her bridesmaids arrived. Angela, Selina, Shelly, and Ivanka rushed to the room to get ready as well.
The bridesmaid's dress was a pink one-piece cheongsams with matching white capes. Their uniform high-heeled shoes were ivory white adorned with sparkling crystals.
Around 9 o'clock, a scream was heard from Janet's room. Ella quickly rushed over to see what was going on.
She stood by the door, and gasped at the sight.
Standing in the middle of a room was a goddess. Janet, in her beautiful cheongsam with a phoenix coronet on her head, looked amazingly elegant.
