Chapter 171

Lucy was at a loss. What should she say? Were all designers this free-spirited and unconcerned about what others thought of them, or…Was this Matthew’s idea of fashion? She looked at Matthew hesitantly and asked, “Matthew, you’re not expecting me to wear that, are you?”Although Matthew was not the designer, Lucy was already convinced that he would make her wear that.Matthew’s gaze darkened as he realized that his wife’s image of him was in shambles.He shouted at the designer with annoyance, “Richard, what are you doing?”Richard Armani stiffened when he heard him. Turning around, he saw the furious Matthew and the bewildered Lucy.Richard’s eyes lit up, and he went up to kiss Matthew on the cheek. “Ciao, Signor Leon. It’s been so long since I last saw you. Did you miss me?”Signor Leon…Lucy was once again thrown off guard. Why was she suddenly transported back to her middle school Italian class?Matthew’s veins were bulging. “I know that’s what you like to call me, but pl

"Enough. Let’s talk business. What ideas do you have for my wife’s gown?”Matthew forcefully redirected the conversation back to the main topic. Lucy perked up, knowing that they had arrived at the main focus of today. Richard stopped fooling around and started to show his professional side. He skillfully scanned Lucy. The more he observed, the more impressed he was.“Your wife has an excellent figure. She’s considered perfect according to beauty standards. Her skin is exceptionally fair, and with her grace, she’s truly exquisite.”Despite being judged by Richard, Lucy was not the slightest bit upset. Perhaps it was because of Richard’s attentive and earnest demeanor.He seemed like he was genuinely committed to designing the perfect gown for her.After meticulously taking Lucy's measurements, Richard lowered his head in contemplation for a moment. Then, he looked up with an air of confidence.“Matthew, I think I have an idea for a design that would suit your wife. Like I menti

With a scowl, Matthew snatched the sketch right before Lucy’s eyes and flung it at Richard’s face. “No, absolutely not! This sketch is unacceptable. Redesign it.”Richard took the sketch off his face with confusion as if he was seeing Matthew for the first time. “Why not? Isn’t the sketch nice?”He was truly puzzled.Matthew had just said that everything was up to him and that he trusted his vision. Why was it that as soon as Richard finished his sketch, Matthew said that it was unacceptable?Matthew glared at Richard and said, “What’s so nice about a draft that took 20 minutes to draw? Go draw another one.”That was not what he said earlier!Lucy was getting even more confused. She thought that the dress was pretty nice.Despite the sketch only taking 20 minutes, the design incorporated fashion elements from all over the globe, which Lucy quite liked.Lucy glowered at Matthew, but there was nothing she could do to refute him.The Italian man was perplexed by the American man’

That was it? Matthew rejected dozens of Richard's sketches just because of that?Richard looked at Matthew in disbelief, unable to hide his disdain. “Signor Leon, this is where you’re wrong. You shouldn’t restrict women from wearing beautiful clothes. Besides, none of the designs are skimpy. They don't expose anything inappropriate."Matthew frowned at Richard and said discontentedly, “I told you to call me Matthew. As for the fabric, how is that enough? How is it not revealing when it looks to me as if you’re revealing everything? "You've exposed a bit of the waist, the wrists, the thighs, and the shoulders… Can’t you add more fabric?”Lucy finally understood where the problem lay.She looked at Matthew expressionlessly and thought, ‘Matthew, do you even know what you’re talking about? Even someone like me, who doesn’t work in the fashion industry, knows that all dresses nowadays reveal some part of a woman’s body to make her look sexier.’If she did not have to go to work and

After a considerable amount of time, Richard handed the sketch to Lucy.Lucy felt somewhat surprised. After Richard spent so long sketching, the end result seemed unexpectedly… ordinary? She looked down with a confused expression. The dress featured a conservative round neckline and uniquely designed sleeves with flowing fabric that draped elegantly.The waist was cinched, and even the skirt’s hem had undergone significant alterations from the original design. While the first dress had a voluminous, petal-like appearance, this one resembled an unbloomed lily. It was form-fitting yet did not overly accentuate the hips and legs.Overall, it was beautiful, but…Everyone’s partners would surely be dressed lavishly at the auction. Would her simple attire embarrass Matthew?Once again, she found herself worrying about unnecessary things.Having looked at the dress design, Lucy passed the sketch to Matthew.This time, Matthew looked satisfied. Everything that should and should not be

Since Richard had to stay up late to make the gown, he quickly got his fabric and entered his studio. He completely ignored Matthew and Lucy, who were still in his home.Seeing how seriously Richard took the dress, Matthew did not argue with him. Instead, he took his wife to the next location.“Now that the dress is ready, your skin needs to be taken care of too.”Lucy had been working overtime and staying up late so much that her skin had gotten a lot worse. Although she did skincare at home, Matthew thought he should take her to do a facial before tomorrow’s big event.…On the way to the beauty salon, Lucy looked at Matthew with mixed feelings. Was this not the kind of thing she was supposed to do with her best friend?Why did Matthew seem so familiar with these things?After they arrived at the beauty salon, Lucy was greeted by groups of people on both sides the moment she stepped out of the car.The beauticians, manager, and staff of the salon were lined up at the entrance

Matthew walked up to Lucy and hugged her, breathing in the scent of her. He whispered in her ear, “You smell so good, and your skin feels so soft. I just want to hold you like this and take you home.”Lucy’s ears turned red. She felt powerless in Matthew’s embrace. That jerk did not even care about the fact that they were in public!All the staff there averted their gaze. Some were even staring at the floor, counting how many tiles there were. No one dared to look at Matthew and Lucy.After Matthew reluctantly let go of Lucy, he took her delicate hand and said, “Wifey, let’s go. We haven’t picked out jewelry yet.”Lucy silently massaged her temples, feeling exhausted at this point.“Matt, why do we have to pick out jewelry? Isn’t jewelry and accessories the fashion designer’s job? Why do we have to pick them out ourselves?”Matthew shrugged. “I just want you to wear what you like.”Only afterward did he realize something. “Wifey, are you tired?”Lucy wearily nodded. Yes, she wa

Meanwhile, the reporters incessantly snapped photos.It was a rare spectacle, with so many affluent individuals worthy of being featured in business magazines gathered under one roof.

She was dressed in a fiery red gown.Whitney Collins of the Collins family looked exceptionally stunning today.

Whitney Collins was biting her nails angrily, completely disregarding her usual ladylike demeanor.Who was that woman, and why was she appearing next to Matthew when Whitney was the only one who was allowed to be by his side?Not to mention, the person responsible for arranging the seating this time must have been a fool. Why would they place her seat so far away from Matthew's when they grew up together? They should have seated her closer to him. What would others think if they saw her sitting this far away from him?She would have to talk to Madam Leon when she got back. The person responsible for the seating today was done for!With those thoughts in mind, Whitney stood up from her seat with the intention of walking over to Matthew.She did not care what anyone said.
