Chapter 447 Bad Mood Again
Aidan’s bronzed muscles almost seemed to glow, every line clearly defined.
Dawn did a double take, then looked away. “You didn’t bring a jacket?”
“It’s hot.”
A simple answer.

Aidan shot her a look. Then he reached under the kid’s arms with one big hand, lifted him lightly, then set him back down.
To anyone else, it looked like a happy little family of three.
No one noticed that a camera not far away captured the moment.
Benjamin hadn’t felt that “takeoff” sensation in a long time. His eyes lit up as he shouted, “Daddy, Daddy! Again!”
Dawn tapped his little head. “What do you mean, again?”
“Carry me!”
Aidan ignored him and glanced coolly at the car in the distance.
“Aren’t you leaving?”
Dawn looked past him. “I thought you’d invite me to look at your design. What, not ready to be seen yet?”
“It’s not finished. What’s there to see?”
Aidan’s voice carried its usual chill. “Come back when
done.”
“Alright.” Dawn was used to his cold attitude by now. She pinched Benjamin’s cheek. “I’m leaving, okay? Listen to your daddy.”
Benjamin nodded hard. “I wouldn’t dare not to.”
Daddy could throw hands.
Dawn couldn’t help laughing. She made two goofy faces at him and turned to leave.
Back in the car, she let out a long breath. “Finally got rid of that little devil. Let’s go. We’re picking out a wedding dress!”
A clean, masculine scent suddenly pressed close. An arm came across in front of her, nearly scaring her half to death.
“W–what are you doing?”

Under his jet–black gaze, Dawn shrank back a little.
She whispered, “Ethan, we’re outside. People will see.”

Ethan’s eyes flickered. He calmly reached over and buckled her seat belt, his voice low. “What did you think I was doing?”
Only then did Dawn realize she’d been played.
Embarrassed and annoyed, she punched his arm lightly. “You’re so annoying!”
The man didn’t speak or laugh.
There was even a flash of something fierce behind those dark eyes.
His red tongue swept across his teeth. He hooked one hand around Dawn’s neck and pulled her close before planting a hard kiss on her lips.
“My goal is to annoy you to deat
Dawn didn’t understand why he was suddenly angry.”
Ethan didn’t say anything else. He drove smoothly, his movements cool and sharp.
Out
The woman beside him didn’t try to comfort him either. She took her phone from time to time, like she was waiting for an important message.
They arrived at The Ivory Corridor.
It was the most famous bridal brand center in the country.
High–end international labels and exclusive custom designs–whatever your fantasies were about love and marriage, you could make them real here.
Just looking from the outside, the first two floors were lined with full–glass windows. Stunning gowns were displayed inside, lighting up every girl’s dream as she passed by.
Ethan parked the car.
The woman beside him seemed distracted, lost in thought.
“Dawn.”
“Huh?”
She came back to herself and looked out the window. “We’re here? Wow, every dress is gorgeous!”
Ethan didn’t respond. His gaze darkened.
They got out and walked in together.

The sales associate had a sharp eye. As soon as she saw the car pull in, she came out to greet them warmly.
“Mrs. Jackson, we’ve prepared the newest styles for you. Take a look first. Then our designer can customize one just for you based on what you like.”
Dawn answered casually, “Can I just pick a ready–made one?”
“Huh?”
The question caught the associate off guard. She didn’t know how to respond and instinctively glanced at Ethan.
Mr. Jackson clearly said he wanted the very best design, so … why is she asking about ready–made gowns
After waiting a bit, he still didn’t react.
now?
The associate could only go along with it. “Of course, you can, but most ready–made dresses are mass- market styles. I personally feel they might not suit you.”
“What do you mean? Don’t they all look the same?”
Dawn had never been obsessed with wedding dresses anyway. Even just to match the Jacksons‘ status, every gown in those windows was already more than luxurious enough.
Besides, her mind was on other things. She didn’t have the energy to care what she wore.
She had almost told the associate to bring the ready–made dresses to try on, but caught sight of the man’s silence and swallowed the words back.
She changed it to, “Let’s look first. If there’s something suitable, we’ll buy it off the rack. If not, we’ll customize.”
Then she hugged Ethan’s arm.
“Okay?”
Ethan tilted his head to glance at her.
“Your call.”
Great. He’s mad.
Dawn sighed. She couldn’t understand how the same man could be so different from three years ago to
now.
The Ethan she knew back then would have never acted like this.
