Chapter 385 Trying on the Latest Dresses Janet quieted down on the bed.
Looking at the tears on her pink cheeks, Lucia had mixed feelings.
Soon her mixed feelings and guilt for Janet turned into courage, making her eager to catch the murderer and avenge Janet immediately.
Lucia gritted her teeth and suddenly thought of something.
She tucked Janet in and turned around with a determined look on her face.
Staring at Paul standing at the door, she took a deep breath and said, "Paul, I'm going to Old Mrs.Adams’ birthday party."
Surprised by her sudden change, Paul froze and asked worriedly, "Lucia, are you serious?"
Since it was Old Mrs.Adams’ birthday party, everyone in the Adams family would be there and Lucia would inevitably run into August and Jeanne.
He was worried about her.
Lucia knew what Paul wanted to say.
She smiled at him and said in a soft voice, "Don't worry.
I know what to do."
She wanted to attend the birthday party for two reasons.
First, she wanted to see Old Mrs.Adams, and second, she wanted to test whether Jeanne had anything to do with this matter.
If she did, she would never let Jeanne go! A few days before the birthday party, Lucia received a call from Jennifer and was asked to the studio to see the latest dresses.
Lucia was free and agreed.
In the studio, Lucia was amazed by Jennifer's latest dresses.
They were much more stunning than any of the dresses she had seen before. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
They were well-cut and designed to be really catchy.
Lucia said as she walked, "These dresses are totally different from ‘Green’."
Jennifer nodded and said in a soft voice, "Yes, ‘Green’ is mainly for the general public.
These are uniquely designed to be catchy but not over the top."
Lucia nodded and looked expectantly at the dresses.
"Try that one."
Jennifer pointed to a white dress.
It looked ordinary, but it was pleated and tailored with puffed sleeves.
Lucia had long been attracted to this dress.
She hadn't expected it to be the first one she would try on.
She was very excited.
When Shirley took the dress down, Lucia found that there were cutouts and overlapping ribbons in the back, revealing the thinnest part of the waist.
Her eyes widened in surprise.
The dress looked simple and elegant from the front but sexy and catchy from the back.
"This..."
Lucia hesitated.
Jennifer raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"Can't take it?"
She walked over, looked at Lucia, and added, "It's the best part.
Don't you want to try it on?"
Lucia trusted Jennifer's taste, but she was now the mother of two and it was inappropriate for her to be dressed like this.
"Try it on.
You won't regret it!"
Jennifer said firmly and pushed Lucia into the fitting room.
Lucia closed the door and looked at the dress with excitement.
It was really stunning like the bright moon.
Lucia took a deep breath and summoned the courage to change into the dress.
It fit extremely well like it was made for her.
It seemed that Jennifer had figured out her size just by looking at her last time.
Lucia couldn't reach the ribbons and could only ask for help.
Shirley was just about to enter when Jennifer pushed the door open and walked in.
She walked up behind Lucia and quickly tied the ribbons behind her waist.
Then she took a step back and said with satisfaction, "Come on out."
Outside the fitting room was a large mirror.
The bright light shone on Lucia’s white skin, dark hair, red lips, and pretty dress.
It was as beautiful as a painting.
Lucia hadn't expected this dress to fit her so well.
She took a deep breath with excitement.
Shirley was also stunned and turned to look at Jennifer excitedly.
"Jennifer, she really showed what you said when you were designing the dress!"
Jennifer gave an appreciative smile.
"Yes, it's perfect."
She then turned to ask Lucia, "What do you think?"
Lucia said excitedly, "I've never looked more beautiful."
Jennifer and Shirley were both amused and it got lively in the studio.
Lucia tried on all the dresses in one afternoon.
Except for a few small problems, each dress had its own soul and characteristics.
The work finally came to an end.
Jennifer told Lucia, "Okay, your work is done.
Shirley has written down all the problems with each dress.
I'll change them one by one and then we'll start shooting."
"Okay,"
Lucia said with a smile.
As she packed her things, she was once again drawn to the white dress called "Shining Moon".
Jennifer noticed it and asked with a smile.
"What's wrong? You want it?"
Lucia smiled and suddenly thought of something.
"Jennifer, I'd like to ask you a favor..."
Ten minutes later, Lucia left Jennifer's studio and drove to the hospital.
Recently, Bill and Elisa had been taking Timothy to the hospital every day.
Janet had been in good spirits since she saw August.
Even the doctor said she was getting better.
Lucia was relieved that Janet was slowly recovering and that the wound on her hand had scabbed over, but she would never get it over if she couldn't catch the murderer.
Lucia arrived at the hospital.
As soon as she pushed open the door, she saw a pile of delicate gift boxes.
She thought she was in the wrong ward, but then she saw Janet in the hospital bed.
She walked over and asked Elisa, who was sitting on the bedside peeling oranges for Janet, "Mom, what are these?"
Those gift boxes and supplements looked very expensive.
Elisa whispered, "They're all from August.’ ‘August?’ A handsome passed across Lucia's mind.
'Why did he come here?’
