Selena, dressed in a fiery red gown, walked out from inside. She probably didn't bother to style her hair, and her jet-black long hair hung loosely behind her.
However, it didn't diminish her beauty at all.
Selena rarely wore such bright colors, but it complemented her fair complexion and made her look even more stunning.
Most importantly, it was clearly a wedding dress.
The phoenix embroidered in fiery red on the dress looked lifelike, as if it could come alive at any moment.
When she walked out, the entire space seemed to brighten up.
"Leia, help me with my hair," Selena said crisply, but her voice stopped abruptly when she saw two more people in the room.
Selena's lips, painted in a seductive red, tightened slightly, and she nodded at Alfie to acknowledge his presence. Then she walked towards Leia and asked, "Where is my mother-in-law?"
Leia and Hattie were both staring at Selena in a daze, but when they heard her question, they snapped out of it.
Leia looked at Selena's stunning wedding dress and couldn't help but think of what Osvaldo would do if he found out that his wife was wearing a wedding dress for another man to see.
Hattie, on the other hand, was simply awed and exclaimed, "Selena, you look so beautiful!"
Selena touched her hair gently and said, "When you grow up, Hattie, you'll be just as beautiful as me!"
Although Hattie didn't understand Leia's thoughts, she noticed that Alfie was staring at Selena without blinking and sensed that something was off.
She held Selena's hand and said, "Madam Laurence is upstairs. Let's go find her and help you with your hair."
As Selena was being led away by Hattie, a voice suddenly called out from behind her, "Excuse me, miss!"
Selena turned around when she heard the unfamiliar voice.
Aurelia was walking towards her, still holding the jade hairpin, and bowed to Selena, saying in a gentle voice, "Excuse me, miss, my name is Aurelia Bennett. I apologize for intruding, but I have a request for you."
Selena watched Aurelia's every move and heard her soft words. She asked calmly, "What can I do for you, Miss Bennett?"
Aurelia bit her lip, seeming hesitant to speak. Finally, she said, "I have an unusual request, and I hope that you can help me with it."
Selena's dark eyes didn't reveal any emotion. "Oh?"
Aurelia's gaze fell on Selena's red wedding dress, and a hint of obsession and fondness flashed in her eyes. "I've been deeply influenced by a person since childhood, and I especially love this type of object. The wedding dress you're wearing is exquisitely crafted, and I've never seen anything like it. I wonder if you can bear to part with it and give it to me?"
After finishing her sentence, as if afraid of Selena getting angry, she hurriedly added, "Rest assured, I'm definitely not trying to snatch your love for no reason. The price is up to you!"
Looking at the other person's anxious expression, Selena seemed to feel that her request was impolite, and her eyes turned red with anxiety. But the gaze clinging to her was so intense, as if the person really liked the dress very, very much.
Selena lowered her head and looked at the dress on her body - a fiery red wedding dress. The fabric was delicate and the embroidery was extremely rare. It was indeed a rare find.
However...
Selena smiled slightly, "Miss, since you can tell that this is a wedding dress, you naturally should know its significance."
"How could a girl's engagement dress be given away?"
Aurelia seemed not to have expected to be rejected directly, and her expression instantly became more anxious, "I... I can exchange it with you..."
