After Divorce, My General Husband Chasing Me Back novel Chapter 171

Chaprer 171 ChrisGender Didn’t Really Matter 

Claire got up early the following day and, after breakfast, went to pick up the custom gift she’d ordered for Elizabeth

She only had the million dollars that Antony had returned to her, and she’d spent bits of it here and there lately

The custom evening gown for Elizabeth had cost her nearly a hundred thousand dollars

It was haute couture, and the designer was notoriously nomadic getting your hands on one of her pieces was more about luck than anything else

Compared to other designers of the same caliber, her prices were actually quite reasonable

She exclusively created evening gowns, and uniquely, she treated everyone equally, each dress cost precisely a hundred thousand dollars, no exceptions

Her talent was extraordinary! She could create the perfect dress just by looking at a photo, matching both style and design to the client’s desires

Claire remembered how Elizabeth had always dreamed of 

owning a Chrisoriginal but never had the chance. She’d never

even seen the designer in person

Chriswas a ghost in the fashion world. She never gave out contact information and worked without assistance. She had boutiques in various cities, but they were perpetually closed

If you wanted one of her dresses, you had to leave a note in the suggestion box outside her store. If she happened to return and saw your message, she’d make your dress

But if she didn’t return to that city for a long time and missed your note, you’d just have to keep waiting indefinitely

Claire had placed an order for this evening gown at ChrisBoutique ages ago, leaving a note in their request box long before she went to prison

It wasn’t until recently that she finally received a text from Chris

The timing couldn’t have been better Elizabeth’s birthday celebration was just around the corner

If she missed this one, nobody knew when the next chance would come

Getting there from the villa district by bus had eaten up quite

bit of time

The pickup process was uniquely modern everything had been handled through text messages, from the order confirmation to the completion notice

They’d informed her that the dress would be waiting in a security locker outside, accessible with a provided code

At the boutique, Claire found several lockers and quickly spotted the one labeled with her name, retrieving her dress

The moment she laid eyes on it, she was stunned, speechless. She’d never seen such an exquisite gown in her life

It was elegantly understated, crafted in forest green to suit an older woman, but the fabric was magical! It seemed to shimmer with rainbow hues when it caught the sunlight

The unique featherstyled mandarin collar buttons added an incredibly distinctive touch

After carefully examining the evening gown, she placed it back in the box

Just as she turned to leave, a middleaged woman who looked to be in her fifties approached
