I hung the call, feeling pity for Sharon. Lyle was a reckless man who did not care about others’ opinions. All he cared about was his own happiness. He only married Crystal to anger me.
Is marriage nothing but child’s play to them?
If possible, I only wanted to marry once and love one man until the end of my life.
As Christopher had an important meeting in the morning, he did not have time to choose a gown with me. He ordered Sabrina and Zachary to accompany me instead. I was amused by how seriously he was treating this.
After laying out a bunch of luxurious gowns in front of me, Sabrina told me to pick the most beautiful one that suited me best. Exasperated, I said, “There’s no need to be so dramatic, right? I’m attending someone else’s wedding, not mine.”
She slammed the table and pointed at the gowns. “Listen to me, Yvonne. Pick a gown that suits you. You must try everything without leaving a single one out. I’ve hired a designer to choose your outfit and a make-up artist for you. You must make a grand entrance at the wedding and stun everyone with your beauty!”
Scratching my head, I replied helplessly, “I’m there to attend the wedding, not to ruin it.” I already have a notorious name. There would definitely be journalists present at Crystal’s wedding, so if I dressed up too extravagantly, they might write something out of context.
“Shouldn’t I keep a low profile now? Everyone already hates me so much, yet you’re trying to make me stand out even more. The entire nation will know me and I’ll be even more famous than the top celebrities.”
“Keep a low profile? No way! You already said that everyone hates you, so people will still notice you even if you keep a low profile. Change your clothes now! Don’t forget who the bride is. Since it’s Crystal’s wedding, you better outdo her and let everyone see how beautiful you are. That way, you can avenge me too.”
Sabrina stroked her flat stomach and spat furiously, “When I see Crystal’s annoying face, I wish for nothing more than to slap her. Only then will my anger dissipate.”
“Should I just ruin their wedding and stop Crystal from marrying Lyle? I think that’ll be better. After all, none of us like her,” I asked in a sarcastic tone.
Sabrina clapped her hands and agreed, “That’s amazing, Eve. Do you have any plans? Tell me secretly! I’ll definitely agree wholeheartedly and help you at the crucial moment. I’ll do just what you ask me to.”
Looking at Sabrina’s excitement, I shot a pleading gaze at Zachary, hoping that he would drag her away and allow me to pick a less flashy gown. However, he was unwilling to cooperate at all. In fact, he said seriously, “Sir instructed me to ensure that you pick the most beautiful gown. Since this is my task, I have to complete it.”
I was so mad that I wanted to faint. Can’t they be less uptight?
“Sabby!” I tried to convince Sabrina to give up.
“Someone help me take off her clothes!” She lifted her hand and snapped her fingers. Immediately, two servants came and dragged me to the changing room.
“Hey, don’t touch me! These are my clothes! Zachary, aren’t you going to restrain your wife?” I exclaimed as I tried to evade the rest.
“I’ll follow everything Sabby says,” replied Zachary calmly. He even added, “Since this is what Sabby and Sir instructed me to do, I’ll have to do it. If you refuse to cooperate, I’ll summon some of my female colleagues over. They would definitely be willing to help Sir out.”
A female soldier from the special forces changing clothes for me? That’s too intense!
While everyone fussed over me, I was so hungry that my stomach grumbled. Finally, I was allowed to leave the room and I walked out embarrassedly. The gown was so revealing that it was as if I was not wearing anything. It was almost against my principles to wear it.
