Chapter 1902 An Angel From Heaven
Soon, there were only three days left before the wedding.
Roxanne had thought that this time around, she would be very calm. After all, they had been married once before and had registered this marriage, so they were practically an old married couple.
Little did she expect to feel a surge of emotions when she saw the wedding dress Estella had designed. It's simply too beautiful! My daughter's talent in fashion design is remarkable!
The dress was not a pure white color but a very light shade of gray. Under the sunlight, it had a grand yet elegant charm. It featured a mermaid tail-inspired design with a train adorned in embellishments that sparkled like stars. Instead of a mermaid's tail, it looked more like a swan's tail. As for the material, it was light and comfortable.
When Roxanne put the dress on and looked at herself in the mirror, she could hardly believe her eyes. It gave a hint of pure, goddess-like air to her aura!
“Mommy, I designed the wedding dress with the grey color gradually lightening into white, just like how the ugly duckling slowly turns into a swan,” Estella explained in her cute, piping voice. She had merely wanted to express the essence of that fairy tale she remembered hearing in the dress. As it turned out, it perfectly represented everything Roxanne had experienced throughout the years.
Perhaps because she could relate to the inspiration of the dress, Roxanne felt she truly suited the dress the more she looked at it.
“You're incredible, Essie. I love this wedding dress to pieces. There's no doubt you're a genius, and you'll surely become an amazing fashion designer who's famous across the globe!” she exclaimed. She even had the vague urge to flatter her daughter.
Estella was overjoyed to see Roxanne so happy, and the former rushed to brag to Archie and Benny.
Hearing the commotion while inside the study, Lucian hurried out to see what was happening.
Something arrested his gaze instantly, and he was stunned for a good seven to eight seconds.
“Gorgeous. Simply breathtaking. You look perfect! Darling, seeing you in that wedding dress makes me want to marry you a few more times!” he said sincerely.
However, his words earned him a frosty glance from Roxanne. She demanded huffily, “What do you mean a few more times? It's already the second time. How many more times are you planning on stirring up trouble?”
Lucian rushed forward, carefully avoiding the wedding gown's train. Gazing at her tenderly, he leaned forward and surprised her with an unexpected kiss.
“That was a slip of the tongue. There won't be a next time. This time is forever,” he murmured with a somewhat seductive look in his eyes.
However, Roxanne had a certain level of immunity to it by now. Still feigning annoyance, she chided, “You've smudged my lipstick!”
Just then, Archie and Benny also hurried downstairs. Seeing Roxanne looking so ethereal in the wedding dress, they scrambled to compliment her.
“Mommy, you look like an angel who accidentally fell into the mortal world! Daddy's so lucky that he gets to marry an angel!”
“You're beautiful, Mommy! Essie must've gotten the wedding gown from the gods! Now, that's what I call impressive!”
They did not forget to commend Estella, which made her beam with pride.
Roxanne was also over the moon upon hearing their praise.
Meanwhile, Lucian was staring at them in stunned silence. I didn't think these two rascals would be better at this than me!
As they were chatting, Elias and Sonya came in with big bags containing the things needed for a traditional wedding. The wedding would have a mixture of modern and traditional elements because they wanted to ensure Roxanne had everything she wanted and would have no regrets.
Upon seeing how beautiful Roxanne looked in her wedding dress, Elias complimented that she looked pretty, then praised Estella for doing a good job.
His words stunned Sonya for a few seconds, and she could not help muttering while shooting him a glare, “She looks a million times prettier than when I got married to you.”
Elias looked back at her innocently.
Then, Sonya smiled and said, “However, it's also because Roxanne has maintained such a good figure. She'll be the envy of many if she wears that out. It's just too beautiful!”
