Chapter 473 We Are Not Close
“It will affect your judgment if I go.”
Damien gracefully knelt before her, skillfully tying her shoelaces. “Furthermore, I have something important today.”
Cherise pursed her lips and watched him attentively as he focused on tying her shoelaces. “You really won’t come with me?”
“No.”
Damien smiled and gazed into her eyes. “I look forward to seeing you in a wedding gown, but I want it to be a surprise on our wedding day.””
Cherise pursed her lips and reluctantly accepted his explanation.
Then, she stood up and sighed. “Still, even though the wedding gowns are expensive, there’s no need to have so many bodyguards.”
Usually, she only had to bring Blake with her wherever she went.
Blake was obedient, quiet, and trustworthy.
Most importantly, with Blake’s abilities, everyone would think twice before hurting her.
Since I already have Blake, why do I need a team of bodyguards?
“We still need to maintain appearances.”
Damien laughed and wrinkled his nose. “Since my wife will be trying on wedding dresses, I need people to surround the boutique so no one can see you.”
Cherise pursed her lips and did not ask any more questions.
An hour later, Cherise, Lucy, and Mandy arrived outside the wedding dress boutique.
It was a three-story building.
As Cherise had made an appointment to try on the gowns, the owner hung a sign at the door stating that the boutique was closed for the day.
When Cherise and her friends entered the boutique, the staff warmly welcomed them. “Mrs. Lenoir, would you like a cup of tea before trying on the dresses, or would you prefer to start immediately?”
Cherise frowned and considered. “Let’s begin now.”
It was the summer holiday, so Lucy had a part-time job. Since Lucy had taken leave to accompany her to this boutique, Cherise did not want to waste Lucy’s time with a pointless tea session.
“Sure.”
The staff smiled and led Cherise to the changing room on the second floor.
“You will be trying on five wedding dresses today.”
The staff smiled and slowly pulled back the curtain, revealing five wedding gowns on mannequins to Cherise and her friends.
Each gown shimmered under the light and was breathtakingly beautiful.
Lucy was mesmerized by their beauty.
Mandy was astonished.
Even Cherise began to hesitate.
As expected, all five wedding gowns were so stunning that Cherise wanted them all.
The staff seemed to have read her thoughts and smiled understandingly. “Mrs. Lenoir, you can try on each of the dresses and have your friend help you decide which one looks best on you.”
Cherise nodded and decided to try on the gowns in the arranged sequence.
Lucy leaned back on the couch and glanced at Mandy. “Do you notice that the last three dresses look like they were designed by the same person?”
“Yes.”
Mandy narrowed her eyes and examined each dress closely. Then, she nodded and continued, “Moreover, these three dresses have similar elements despite their different styles.”
“I can see that the designer of these three dresses has a liking for stars, small flowers, and lilies.”
Lucy grunted in agreement.
She turned to Mandy a moment later and blinked expectantly. “I heard you’re quite close to Zachary.”
“Has he ever mentioned that the head of the Miles family has a fondness for these elements?”
Hearing Zachary’s name, Mandy couldn’t help but roll her eyes and retorted, “We are not close!”
