Chapter 152
When Rose reemerged, Llana hurriedly lugged on Jasper’s sleeve. “Jasper, let’s slop her and have a chat. She will definitely agree to design my wedding dress if you talk to her because you’re the president of the Heckell Group!”
He frowned but was dragged along to meet with Rose.
“Ms. Emerson, we are here to request your help in designing my wedding dress. Jasper and I will be married next month in a grand wedding that will be streamed nationwide.”
Liana leaned gently on Jasper, a delighted look on her face, “Your dress on me will attract national attention! That’s pretty good marketing, don’t you think?
“Money is not a problem as long as you agree to design the dress. Tell us anything you need, and we’ll take care of it. We are serious
about this.”
“Wow, Ms. Gardner, you do sound like a future daughter–in–law of a wealthy farnily.” Bearning, Rose lifted a finger. “One million, and t consider taking the job.”
“What? That’s too expensive!” Liana gaped at Rose.
“And I thought money is not a problem for you. Is one million too much for the future Mrs. Beckett?”
“Sure, one million it is.” Jasper remained expressionless.
“Jasper…” Liana bit her lower lip and almost teared up from Jasper’s touching move.
“You might be fine with the deal, but I’m not.” Rose was smiling but dripping with hostility. Jasper frowned. He had a feeling that he had been played.
*Sharon might have forgiven you because she’s cool, but I can’t. Ms. Gardner, don’t ever think of getting your bespoke gowns from Rozabela, including for your wedding. I will never let you rent a dress.”
With that, Rose scoffed and left haughtily.
Although Liana was incensed and silently cursing out Rose, she put on a pitiful expression and whimpered, “Jasper, is she hostile to us because Ms. White said something to her? Ms. White should have come at me if she was upset. Why would she set Rose against me?”
Jasper was extremely frustrated. “Let me talk to Alice alter the cocktail party. I’ll get her to convince Rose to design your wedding dress.”
Jasper, you’re the best! I knew you loved me the most!”
Right as Liana was about to kiss Jasper, the venue erupted in cheers and applause. When the lights dimmed, a spotlight illuminated the stage.
“Oh my! Is she the same woman from before? She’s so different!”
