Not only did Arianne manage to hold back her tears, she even managed a smile. She was afraid that her tears might bring bad luck to Will’s engagement party. Hence, she tried her best to smile…
At least his fiancée was very pretty. She was an appropriate match for the Sivan family. She hoped that he would live a happy life.
As if drawn by some sort of invisible force, Will’s gaze landed on Arianne. His smile instantly faded. The starry sparkle in his eyes was immediately awashed with sadness.
They locked eyes for two seconds before Arianne hurriedly looked elsewhere. She didn’t have the courage to look him in the eye.
“Ari,” Tiffany gritted her teeth angrily, “Unless I’m mistaken, the bridal gown on Will’s fiancée… is one of your designs. Mark Tremont is just… too cruel!”
Arianne finally noticed this once she pointed it out. It was true. She had initially thought that Mark had purely brought her to the fashion show because her design would be on display. Incidentally, he brought her to have dinner at White Water Bay Café. She was even naive enough to think that it was simply because it was their anniversary. Now it seemed… that he wanted her to remember her wedding dress design, and that dinner was simply out of convenience…
It was just like Mark Tremont… His tactics were as brilliant as ever—making her design a wedding dress for Will Sivan’s fiancée and forcing her to see it with her own eyes.
Unbeknownst to her, Mark’s plan didn’t stop there. Everyone was well-informed of her affair with Will that year, even Will’s fiancée was not kept in the dark. Not only did she not reject the wedding dress, but she even “generously” invited her, the wedding dress designer, up on stage to give a speech to the happy couple.
Tiffany was close to exploding. “Don’t do it, Ari… Let’s leave right now!”
