Chapter 809 - Seventeen Billion!

Hearing that voice, Claire shook her head solemnly. "No, I've been busy with my bridal shop lately, what's wrong? You two… Did you two have a fight?"

"No, there is no fight, but I have not been able to contact him since last night," Lilia answered in a neutral tone despite doubts that started to arise in her eyes.

She didn't know why she felt like her husband was disappearing suddenly. They lost contact last night, and when Lilia thought she could reach him in the morning, the man's phone was still dead.

It is very unusual.

When Claire saw Lilia's sad face, she smiled and patted the back of her hand. "I understand how much you miss him. Men are like that... When they are focused on their work, sometimes they forget about the people around them."

"I also heard from my brother that Jean's been working on a private project so maybe he is paying too much attention to it. But don't worry, maybe he'll be back in two days!"

Lilia lowered her head and shrugged pretentiously. "I know that Jean is very busy, but I haven't been able to contact him since last night, I feel a little uncomfortable."

"Don't worry." Claire soothed. "Jean has lots of people around to protect him. Nothing bad will happen to him. Instead of worrying about him, you better think about what eyeshadow color looks better when the MUA does your makeup."

"I watched your award video yesterday. pretty, but it's almost meaningless. Later the makeup artist will pick some colors for you and match them to the wedding dress. It will be fantastic of course!"

Claire forcefully changed the subject, and Lilia had forgotten her worries for a moment.

...

8:30 am, at Batu Town.

When Lilia came here, she started to look around as she got out of the car.

It seemed like there was a special event in town today. Many luxury cars were parked in the parking lot not far from the entrance.

The houses built on the edge of the entrance were decorated with bow-shaped sea-blue clouds, and the fence at the edge of the flower garden was covered in dense and delicate clusters of flowers, looking beautiful and majestic.

She looked around again, and as she followed Claire down the stone path, she asked curiously, "Is there any special occasion today?"

Claire looked at Lilia with a confused expression. "I don't know, let's hurry to the location. Let's go to the locker room first."

...

At 9:30 am, Lilia had finished her makeup.

She was sitting in the locker room, and saw herself reflected in the mirror. She could not resist a bit of a daze. "Sister, don't you think makeup is a bit too much?" Lilia reached out and touched the hair on top of her head.

Her hair was curly, extending from the side of her forehead to the back of her head, and the top of her head had a convex arch, perhaps for the convenience of wearing a veil.

And the action of pinching her hair also caused her fingertips to be stained with a touch of golden sand.

According to Lilia, this makeup is too much. It took her over half an hour to finish makeup, and after setting it up, the MUA sprinkled some sand spray for the decorations.

Standing behind her, Claire nodded in satisfaction. "I thought this champagne eyeshadow would suit you very well, but… it looks like the blush is a little heavy. Good thing your skin is already white, so you can save on the blush."

While speaking, she called the makeup artist to fix the blush for Lilia.

After the makeup was done, it was time to put on her wedding dress.

Lilia followed Claire into the dressing room, and as the wooden door opened, the wedding dress placed in the center of the room looked very impressive.

Outside the window, the scorching sun could be felt from thousands of miles.

Lilia stood in the doorway dazed, her eyes sparkling with diamonds.

This champagne colored wedding dress was much more beautiful than the sample.

Since she has been in the modeling industry for a long time, she has been used to countless luxurious dresses, but nothing can make her look so enchanted.

A wedding dress is probably every woman's dream.

Lilia is no exception.

She stepped forward, and her eyes were fixed on the finished wedding dress.

The Moiré waves on the neckline are no longer the usual style, especially when it's embroidered with silver thread.

The completely natural bow was engraved with a familiar imprint in memory.

She raised her hand to touch the necklace, and asked in awe, "Sis, who is the designer?"

Claire was standing sideways behind her. Watching Lilia's confused look, she rambled on. "A friend of mine who works overseas, how is it? Does it look good?"

Lilia nodded without hesitation. She stretched out her fingertip and gently stroked the neckline. "This design is almost the same as the necklace design that Jean gave me. I didn't expect the design of this wedding dress to be so similar to it."

After hearing this, Claire slowly stepped forward, and when she stood beside her, she answered with a smile. "I heard that many designers love these elements, it may be a coincidence."

Lilia temporarily suppressed the strange emotions in her heart that could not be explained.

Her gaze gradually switched, and she saw that the skirt wedding dress was covered with sparkling diamonds.

"Is this a diamond? Or crystal?" Lilia touched it carefully. Judging by the color and brightness, it was more like a diamond.

At this moment, Claire gave an answer, "Those are all diamonds found in South Africa. You wouldn't expect it because this diamond is so small, but these 170 diamonds are carefully selected with a high degree of purity."

Lilia was surprised. "Then the price of this wedding dress..."

Claire stretched out her finger. "Seventeen billion!"

Hearing this, Lilia pulled the finger that was touching the wedding dress. 

How expensive!

Seeing her movement, Claire grabbed her shoulder and stepped forward. "Come on, I'll help you put it on. Honestly, this wedding dress is so beautiful, and I've never had one made this beautiful in my shop."

Since this wedding dress was expensive, Lilia was very careful when trying it on. The skirt was adorned with 170 real diamonds, even if she had worn dresses as expensive as this before, nothing could compare to this wedding dress.

Ten minutes later, Claire pulled Lilia into a full-sized mirror. With a slim waist and graceful curves, showing no sign of a pregnant mother's belly at all. 

A necklace with a cloud line on her collarbones complemented the neckline design of the dress.

"This is so beautiful..."

Claire let out an unsustainable emotion behind her, and her eyes started to moisten.

"Sister, the length of this wedding dress doesn't seem to match high heels."

Lilia condensed her wondrous thoughts, stood in front of the mirror and looked carefully, only to realize a slight problem.

Right now, she was still wearing flat shoes, and the length of the skirt of her wedding dress was fitting that dragged the floor.

But if she was wearing high heels, she worried that her skirt would be pulled up.

After hearing this, Claire turned around and walked to the corner of the dressing room. She took out a shoebox. "I almost forgot, it seems I'm getting senile soon. You don't have to worry, just wear these shoes.. These are flat shoes specially prepared for you."
