The gown Marshall ordered for Katherine was ready in a few days.
After work, Marshall brought Katherine to the designer to try it on.
They went to the courtyard in that alley again.
The designer was waiting for them.
He smiled at the sight of Katherine. "I can already imagine how you look in the gown."
The gown was hung up in the room inside.
The designer brought Katherine in.
Katherine was stunned at a glance.
The gown was nothing like the one she had shown to the designer.
This one looked more elegant. It was a full-length dress in champagne color with deep V-neck and low
back.
The well-fitting waistline showed her curvy figure perfectly.
Katherine stared at the gown for a long time, not daring to touch it, just like when she had seen her
wedding dress for the first time back then.
At that time, Mrs. Grant kept telling her how valuable the wedding dress was, making Katherine believe
that she didn’t deserve that sumptuous wedding gown.
However, she didn’t regard it as a big deal now, because she was rich too.
The designer smiled. "Please try it on. I’ll leave you alone for now."
When the door was closed, Katherine took the gown and put it on slowly.
It fit perfectly.
Beside the gown was a pair of heels in silver champagne color.
According to the size, they must be prepared for her.
Katherine put them on and looked into the full-length mirror.
She looked stunning.
Marshall and the designer were sitting on the chairs outside the room.
The designer was confused. "Didn’t you not want to tell anybody about you wife before? What
happened so that you’re open about her now?"
Marshall smiled. "It’s not like that. She was shy."
The designer thought for a while. He faintly knew that Katherine came from a humble background.
Back when Marshall married Katherine, the wedding was a very grand occasion. Therefore, her family
background was completely dug out after that.
Many people weren’t that positive about the future of Katherine’s marriage.
Meanwhile, part of the people believed that it was true love.
However, Marshall had never been open about the reality of the marriage.
His friends could only make a guess secretly.
Presumably, it might be because Katherine was naive, not shy.
Now that she had been married for almost a year, she must have seen a lot.
Therefore, it was time to take her out to socialize.
The designer said after thinking, "In terms of appearance, your wife is presentable."
Marshall thought of Katherine’s face and agreed, "It’s best to look natural."
In fact, Marshall was surprised to find a fresh flower among the ruins.
The designer continued after some consideration, "Degree and knowledge can be acquired. Actually, I
think she’s quite smart. I can tell she’s not a dummy from her sparkling eyes. In fact, you may…"
Before the designer could finish his words, Katherine pushed open the door and walked out.
She seemed a little embarrassed, her hands pinching the dress at her sides.
Both the designer and Marshall froze.
Katherine pursed her lips and looked at the two of them, asking in a low voice, "Does it fit?"
The designer got up first and smiled at once. "I knew this style would suit you. Come here. Let your
husband take a good look at you."
Then he looked back at Marshall. "You picked the right person. How lucky of you!"
Marshall rose to his feet and walked up to Katherine.
Shy, Katherine felt the same way when she had seen Marshall in her wedding gown back then.
Marshall stared at Katherine’s gown and nodded. "You look great."
He commented lightly, which made her relieved.
Katherine understood him. Having been in business world for so many years, Marshall must have seen
all kinds of women.
He wouldn’t be interested in the kind of woman like her at all.
The designer turned around and called the man in the monk robe, asking him what kind of hair and
makeup suited her.
Katherine was stunned. So the man in the monk robe was both the hairstylist and makeup artist?
How astounding!
Hearing the designer calling her, the man in the monk robe came over from the backyard.
He brought Katherine over to the dresser aside.
In the monk robe, he looked quite serious.
He looked at Katherine in the mirror for a long while before nodding. "I think I know what to do."
The man in the monk robe was quite good at what he did.
Katherine could only hear the Buddha beads clinking in front of his chest with his movements and
nothing else.
After some time, the man in the monk robe put the makeup tools in his hands down. "Done. Get up and
let us have a look at you."
Once Katherine was helped up, Marshall and the designer came over to her.
Katherine could tell without anyone telling her that she looked like a totally different person now.
