Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 311

I couldn't help but chuckle. "We've been walking for quite a while. I've got home and had a shower."

"That's good to hear."

"Allen hasn't been causing any more trouble for you, has he?" I asked.

Before Mark and I left, Mark had given Allen a stern warning. Allen was nodding so vigorously that he was practically on the verge of kneeling.

Cheryl nodded. "No more trouble, don't worry. He's signed the divorce papers and left a while ago."

I was a bit surprised. "Allen agreed that quickly?"

It seemed he was honestly scared of Mark. Just the night before, he was still swearing he'd get a piece of my fortune.

Cheryl also breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, you should thank Mr. Larson. He's a good man."

I agreed, "Don't worry. I'll find a chance to thank him."

Cheryl’s getting a smooth divorce was a huge relief for me. From then on, I only needed to take care of her. There was no need to deal with that scoundrel anymore.

Being a new brand, Janedream naturally saw moderate business. But that didn't stop me from being incredibly busy.

After nearly half a month of hard work, I finally finished Dorothy's engagement dress with diamonds, white pearls, and rubies. Nothing was missing.

The white pearls were styled into a strap design, with the silver-white fabric sparkling beautifully. It was perfectly tailored at the waist to highlight the figure, and large diamond patches were embedded into the hem, shining brightly even as it hung there.

Molly stepped forward, carefully took the dress down, and offered, "Ms. Myers, please go ahead and change. If you need anything, let me know."

Most dresses are complicated to wear alone. But this one had a simple design for putting on and taking off.

It wasn't two minutes before Dorothy started complaining, "Are you people stupid? Don't you know to come in and help me?"

Her words were harsh, making Molly frown. Susan saw it and lashed at me, "Jane, your employees are just like you. None of you have any sense of manners!"

"Insult me all you want, but don't drag Ms. Webster into this!" Usually cheerful and polite, Molly suddenly turned cold, looking like a cornered bunny ready to bite.

Susan retorted coldly, "I was talking to Jane. And who are you to interrupt? Let me tell you, if Dorothy isn't satisfied today, we'll reject this dress and make your company shut down!"

"Ma'am, you and your daughter are more bothersome than the rumors suggest..."
