Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 121

Francis was wearing a thin black shirt that contrasted with his fair skin, making him stand out visually. Apart from that, he was also wearing some small stainless steel pendants and rings that added to his charm.

When he heard the commotion, he raised his head and looked at the young woman. A playful smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he said, “Did you bring your measuring tape today? If not, I have plenty prepared.”

“That won’t be necessary. I brought it with me.” Christina walked over and took out her measuring

tape.

After saving the edited itinerary, Francis got to his feet and made his way to her side.

He noticed how the light fell on her clean and flawless face, which made her seem as pretty as a piece. of translucent emerald. Her clear eyes were gazing at the scenery outside the window, and the calmness reflected in them was as serene as a painting

A sly look flashed in Francis’ eyes as he bent down slightly and leaned close to her ear before whispering, “Remember to save the measurements after you’re done. I plan to have all my future formal wear custom-made by you.”

Taken aback by the sudden closeness, Christina shot him a glare and huffed, “You don’t need to talk so close to me. I’m not deaf.”

When he saw that his prank had succeeded, a satisfied smile spread across his lips. He suddenly found the woman to be rather interesting and felt that even if he hadn’t made a deal with her, he would still want to get close to her.

Christina took out the measuring tape and instructed, “Raise your hands.”

Francis obliged and raised them obediently, looking like a king who was waiting for his attendant to dress him up.

Since the two had a significant height difference, Christina had to stand on her tiptoes to reach him. She kept him at arm’s length, making it obvious that she was deliberately avoiding any physical contact with him.

Francis furrowed his brows slightly at that, and with a displeased tone, he said, “I’m not sick, so why are you keeping your distance?” He didn’t like the way she was treating him as if he was some sort of dangerous person.

“You’re getting married soon, and your spouse-to-be is the famous actress, Renee Olson. I’m just worried that if we’re seen getting too close, it will have a negative impact on your marriage,” Christina replied matter-of-factly.

She was trying her best to avoid any unnecessary conflict.

Francis chuckled in response. “Why do I get the feeling that you’re worried about being misunderstood by Nathaniel instead?”

Realizing that her intention had been seen through, she glared at him irritably and continued measuring him with the tape in her hand. After a while, she recorded the measurements.

“All right, I’ve got your measurements. The designs will be up to Renee to decide.” Christina put away her measuring tape and notebook. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave now.”

Just as she was about to leave, Francis stopped her. “You forgot to take the measurements for the pants.”

Christina’s lips twitched slightly in response. It wasn’t that she had forgotten, but rather she simply. didn’t want to take the measurements. “The size of the pants can be adjusted easily, so I’ll just use the standard measurements for models of similar height.”

Sensing the perfunctory tone she was using, Francis glanced at his watch and grinned. “All right. Let me walk you out, then.”

Christina nodded and walked over to open the door, only to see a group of people approaching.

Her gaze then settled on Nathaniel, who was dressed in a black suit. His handsome face was cold and emotionless as he exuded a gloomy aura.

When the light fell on his side profile, it made him seem as if he was glowing.

Christina blinked in surprise. “Nathaniel?”

When Nathaniel saw Christina walking out of Francis studio, his expression darkened further.

An overwhelming sense of oppression swept over the area, and Christina swiftly moved away from Francis’ side.

She put on her best docile look before walking up to Nathaniel and explaining with a sweet smile, “I’m here to take measurements for an order that the company received.”

Nathaniel’s gaze fell on Christina’s face and he asked coldly, “Are you done, then?”

“Yeah, I’m done.” She nodded.
