Chapter 86 Send the Gown

Nicole finally finished making the gown in a hurry on Saturday, so she informed Wendy about it over a call. At the same time, Wendy told Nicole that Anna wanted to see her as well, so it would be the perfect time for her to bring the gown over too.

Nicole agreed and immediately drove to the Gardner Residence.

Wendy was very satisfied upon seeing the gown, and her bright smile was the best proof.

As Anna was a designer when she was younger, she too was impressed to see the gown which Nicole designed.

“You really deserved the title of F&M Apparel’s chief designer. This design is eye-catching and suits Wendy’s age too.”

Wearing a humble expression, Nicole nodded and responded, “You’re flattering me, Mrs. Gardner. The style of my design is actually much more mature as youthful designs are not my forte. If Miss Gardner has any comments for improvement, I’ll make the necessary amendments.”

Wendy shook her head while holding the gown. “Not at all. I like it very much. Thank you, Ms. Lisa!”

After saying that, she lowered her head to look at the gown in her hands. Even if the name ‘Lisa’ had been removed from the gown, it would not discount how dazzling the gown was, so Wendy was confident that she would definitely outshine the others at the evening party.

“By the way…” Wendy trotted to Nicole with the dress in her hand as if she recalled something all of a sudden. “I’m turning 18 in a month, Ms. Lisa. Can you design a coming-of-age gown for me? Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to ask Colton to pay you a price that is higher than the market rate.”

It was the first time that Anna saw her beloved daughter being close to a person. She reached out with her hand to pull Wendy over and explained with a smile, “Lisa is having a collaboration with Gardner Corporation this time round, so I’m afraid she won’t have so much time to make another gown for you. We’ve already troubled her this time. I’ll ask Joanna to make you a dress next time.”

Wendy lowered her head to look at the dress in her hands as disappointment appeared on her originally smiling face.

Although Joanna’s design was good too, it was not as striking as Lisa’s. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

On the other hand, Nicole was envious after seeing the mother and daughter’s intimate interaction. She gave a gentle smile and replied, “Don’t worry, I’m working in Gardner Corporation anyway. Designing a dress won’t take too much of my time. Just let me know what your requirements are, Miss Gardner.”

Hearing that Nicole was willing to design a dress for her, Wendy immediately approached her to give a hug, after which she squealed with a smile. “Thank you, dear Ms. Lisa!”

“Just call me Nicole.” Nicole nodded with a smile. In fact, she was also fond of this young lady who was more than 10 years younger than her.

Maybe it was because Wendy was loved by her family since young that there was no trace of schemes that the adults had in her eyes, which made it a pleasure to see her clear and bright eyes.

“Sure, Nicole,” Wendy replied with a beam.

With that, she went upstairs with the dress. Thereafter, Anna continued chatting with Nicole for a while longer due to Nicole’s job as a designer.

Since both of them were fashion designers, they found many common topics in their chats.

Despite the fact that Anna was no longer working as a designer, there were still many things about the career that they could talk about.

As such, Nicole continued to stay at the Garner Residence for almost two hours before she left.

Tomorrow was the weekend, and an appointment had been made for her to go for the DNA paternity test with Joseph. A flustered Nicole stood at the entrance and covered her forehead with her hand as she recalled the incident from five years ago…

Suddenly, the scene of darkness and passion combined with the man’s sharp, fierce eyes flashed through her mind. With her arms resting by her side, she tightly clenched her fists as she just couldn’t recall who the man was.

Is it really Joseph? If it isn’t him, how would he dare to ask to do the DNA paternity test upfront? And he was not intimidated at all when I proposed to do it on the spot.

Nicole shook her head as she decided to stop thinking about it. Regardless of whether Joseph was Hayden’s biological father or not, she would not allow Joseph to get his way.
