Chapter 326 [Bonus Chapter] Bridal Shower(Chapter Preview)

"My lady, this is the best design the whole empire has..

And this.. Frills are very popular these days. It gives you a feminine look and even cover for your thin waist and you will not look malnourished at all." Evan instinctively looked at her waist with a frown on her face.

Did she look malnourished?

"But if you are still confused about frills then go for lace! You will look sensuous with a dress only made of lace from your knees and for your back.. Young lord will not be able to keep his eyes away from you..

Or look at this…" Evan held her spinning head from her right hand as she saw another dozen of white dresses. It was more than a hundred since lunchtime and she was sure everyone looked almost the same! And if that was not enough, the designer was telling everyone was better than the other.

She wondered if she was there to help her or to confuse her further!

"My lady, if you choose your dress today then only we will be able to choose fitting accessories for you tomorrow!" the designer pressed as she looked more anxious than Evan as if it was her marriage!

"Let her breathe.. I will choose the dress in her stead!" Eve, who had just finished choosing a dress for her and Eli rummaged through the wedding dresses and scanned them with her laser-filled eyes!

"My angel!" Evan stared at Eli as if she had finally found her savior that made Eve chuckled.

"It is not taught to choose, you know. We will have a mix of rubies and diamonds and would not go for something cheap as laces!

And instead of frills I want more layers in the hem and the golden thread ...." Evan took a breath of relief when the designer collected her things and left the palace with a satisfied expression on her face but the happiness did not stay for long…

"My lady.. His highness had asked you to go with lady Elizabeth to taste all the dishes prepared for the marriage!" her face turned pale, yet she nodded and left for another task that was no less than defeating enemies in the war.

"I did not understand why I needed to check and participate in everything personally!" and here she thought that nobles have staff for everything and they did not need to personally tend to every task.. But here she was.. Even for decoration..

The decorator even asked her and Leo to choose the flowers and color of curtains by themselves!

While they all have a single duty, she had to assist all of them in choosing by which she had accumulated all the tasks.

She would rather have a runaway wedding so that she didn't need to prepare for anything. She mulled over the thought seriously when she heard Elizabeth chuckling!.

"It is not like we do not have the staff that chose things for us or we will not prepare well for your marriage.

It is just that father wants everything to be finalized by you so that it could be as you have dreamt.

He wants to make everything perfect for you by giving you the authority to choose everything.

He wants you to not feel regret over a small thing like the taste of dessert or the throne you will sit on!" Eli shook her head at the childishness of her father.

"..........." Evan's lips parted as she felt the shock of her life! Here she was complaining all day without realizing how much the duke cared for her.

She wanted to tell them that she had never dreamt about her marriage. Or she would be fine no matter what the color of the flowers would be or what would be the taste of the cake.

All she cared about was.. She was going to be part of their family in reality. She would finally gain the right to call him father legally!

But she did not have the heart to hurt her expectations. Her heart started to feel warm and tears started to well in her eyes as she realized how much the duke had cared about her when all she was doing was complaining..

"Then.. let's check the next dessert. What are you dilly dallying for?" Eli chuckled when she saw the new enthusiasm in the girl with shining eyes!

She had never liked Evan since she was immature and acted like a spoiled kid. Not to forget her ambiguous background, she still has to investigate or.. Should she let it go?

But who would have thought that she would be looking at Evan with so much adoration and hopes that she would bring a new life to the dull palace so that it would be lively again!

"Eli! Are you even listening to me!" Eli blinked when she noticed that Evan was waving her hands in front of her.

"Hmm, what happened?" She looked a bit embarrassed and glared at the girl who was staring at her with mischievous eyes.

"I was asking, will you be the bridesmaid or will you come with leo!" a bit of anxiety filled her voice when Eli did not reply straight but stared at her face.

"I.. I do not have many friends or any sister! If you and Eve would be the bridesmaid.. Then.. but if not.. I can always ask a few maids to be.." what was she even expecting.. How foolish of her!

"Tsk! To think that you will even hesitate in asking.. Of course, me and Eli would be one and arrange your bridal shower! In fact, we will steal the premium collection of father and drink till we all be tipsy and wasted!

Who knows, maybe we will be able to know your secrets too!"
