Chapter 92 Engagement Party
Elly was struck by lightning.
"Me. I'm not ready yet. I was kissed on the forehead. It's so light that you think it's a figment of your imagination."
Elly looked at his shameless behavior. She didn't knew what she would tell him to refused him for a moment.
He pretended that he didn't do anything. Alex sat in his seat and changed the subject. "When you're done, I'll take you to the shop to try on your clothes."
"Would you like to try on the dress when you're full enough?" She swallowed her tongue as she heard what he just said.
After dinner, Alex drove to a famous wedding shop in town. The clerk greeted him, bowing his head respectfully. "All in all, we have prepared the dress you requested."
Alex didn't hesitated, he gave his order to Elly. "Let's try it!" He excitedly said.
Elly was dragged into the fitting room with suspicion. The staff enthusiastically help her changed.
The moment she saw the dress, she was shocked when she saw herself. Elly was really attracted. She was obsessed with touching fluffy cloth and touching every exquisite pattern in the skirt.
"Ma'am, every piece of clothing in our store is unique and there is no second one. Every thread and curve on the skirt is designed according to your measurements."
What's her measurement? Why does Alex knew her measurement?
Elly changed her dressed with the help of the staff. She followed the instructions very carefully for fear that a little grab would ruin the beautiful dress.
She stood hesitantly behind the curtain Took a deep breath, she closed her eyes, started to walked on her legs. She appeared in front of Alex with the gorgeous dress on her body.
Alex gazed at the beautiful figure in front of him. The silver dress shows the delicate skin of Elly. The dress was V-neck and off shoulder type, revealing her slender neck. It also hugged her curve, and in her lower torso was a straight fabric skirt that it reach the ground. As she wore beautiful dress, Elly became more feminine than usual. She asked sheepishly. "Isn't this beautiful?"
The question of her self-confidence caught the attention of Alex, who was scratching his nose awkwardly for looking at her absent-mindedly. "Wow, it's beautiful."
Elly was satisfied and his face was not so awkward. "I heard the staff say, you have come up with the idea of designing this dress?
Alex did not answer, but he asked, "Do you like it?"
Elly smiled from ear to ear, and the curtain was teetering. "I love this. This dress is too exquisite. It must be very expensive."
"Are you afraid I can't afford it?"
"Alex, I haven't decided yet." Elly's joyed and sorrowed were mixed with her thoughts. The wedding is an event for the world to see, and it's a pity to waste an expensive dress on such an occasion.
Alex went to Elly, he suddenly hugged her waist, and he felt the fragrance trembled in his heart. He knew she wasn't ready to make out. Blowing in her ear, his lips didn't reached her ear.
"You are my man. You can't embarrass me anyway." He was the boss Russel Group of Company, can't he prepared a dress for his fiance?
Elly was silent and disappointed. She really wants him to order this dress for her. Losing his eyes, Elly bowed her head and smiled bitterly. Sure enough, people were greedy and selfish.
Half a month later, the engagement took place in the largest hotel in the city, belonging to Russel Family.
Elly were standing at the door of the hotel, her foot were as heavy as lead.
"If we can't do this, let's go back." Sarah looked at John's sad expression and said. "Why do you need to force yourself to come here? Elly has questions, you just need to tell her that you have gone abroad."
No, no. John's attitude was stubborn, and the emotion in his eyes was also cleverly covered up. This is Elly's engagement party, he wouldn't missed it.
"You are such an idiot! She refused everything you did." Sarah sighed. "What's going on?"
At the hotel, Elly sat in front of the mirror and looked at her gorgeous makeup. She had no sense of reality.
Things were changing so fast. When she returned to Alberta, she was John's fiance, and today she was engaged to Alex. So many things have happened in the past that she has messed up all her plans in life.
"Are you ready?" Alex opened the door and came in and saw Elly seated next to the mirror with an upsurge of emotion.
In the past, in the case of helplessness, although the wedding with his ex-wife was grand, it was done in a great hurry. For him, today's engagement party is that he wanted to make up for his debts.
"Why are you here? Don't you need to entertain guests down there?"
Alex's social circle were very large, they are well-known political and financial figures. If he let the guests wait, it will be difficult.
"Are you still interested in these things?" Alex said indifferently.
"Because I read the invitation list, you invited too many people. What if in the future, when we are over, the wedding will not happen, what will you do? "
"That's my problem. You don't have to worry".
Elly obviously saw that Alex did not want to mention this topic. She couldn't help be worried that he didn't look good.
"It's possible. Aren't you coming?"
If John didn't come, all of their plans will be in vain.
Alex reiterated confidently. He will surely come
John's felt he is the most cleared person. Like the same person, the more he understood his feelings, he still didn't want gave up.
When Elly walked slowly into the hall with Alex's hand, she saw John beside Sarah from a distance. His injured arm was covered under his vest and still looked nervously at his constant face.
People blessed the host of the party, and John looked at her from a distance. He knew that he was not ready to express his blessing to Elly.
Alex deliberately helped Elly from John. "You know, it's time to face them."
Sarah tapped John and woke him up after he stared at Elly in a daze.
Alex raised his glass and said generously. "Thanks to Master John and Miss Sarah for coming to my engagement party with Elly. It's a great honour!"
Alex was polite. John answered him calmly. His eyes were keeping on Elly.
"Doesn't the young master seem to bless us?" Alex teased to their guest.
John clenched his fist, and the wine glass in his hands made a wave and it led him in not a good mood as he seemed.
Sarah next to her smiled gracefully. "Congratulations to Mr. Russel for having a smart and beautiful fiance." Her keen painted looked directly at Elly and raised her glass to propose a toast. "Congratulations, Mrs. Russel!"
Elly's body trembled slightly. She raised her glass to symbolized Sarah and drank up the wine in the glass.
Elly was dazzled, she knew that she had thrown away something very sincere.
A traced of pain appeared in John's eyes as she watched her drink so fast.
Without waiting for someone to speak, Alex affectionately put his hand on Elly's waist and said politely to John. "Please help yourself. We ask you to say hello to everyone."
Alex tugged Elly away. Far enough from John, he cautiously reminded her. "Even if you are acting, you should finish your excellent performance. I am not satisfied with the way you look at him."
