Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 435

Janet blinked several times, thinking that she had misheard him.

She awkwardly ran her fingers through her hair and clutched the blanket that was draped around her body. "What—" she choked, then had to clear her throat. "What wedding dress?"

Ethan smiled at her patiently and spoke slowly, as one would with a child. "We married in a rather shabby ceremony. You wore a simple white dress, and not much happened besides us exchanging vows. I always thought you may not have a good memory of our wedding day."

Janet didn't expect Ethan to still remember these trivial things, much less care about them. Her heart softened despite herself.

She could be so easy sometimes.

Luckily, she snapped back to her senses a moment later. "Forget it, Ethan. That would be too much trouble."

He insisted, of course. "The wedding day is one of the most important events in a woman's life, this much I know. And it is important to me. Now that you know my other identity, I want to pledge myself to you again, this time as Brandon Larson."

Janet was stunned speechless at his smooth declaration. In the end, she could only nod in agreement.

South Pole was the most expensive wedding gown shop in Seacisco, catering mostly to custom -made orders for the upper society.

They were proud of their clientele, too, as evidenced by an advertisement they had once run on TV. Hence, it was known as a luxury brand that only serviced the wealthiest ladies the city could offer.

And today, Janet was going to get that full, exclusive experience.

Ethan and Janet walked into the store hand in hand.

She was still opposed to the whole idea, especially since she was still mad at him.

But now that they were here, she couldn't just flee and make Ethan lose face in public.

"Mr. Larson! Why have you come so early? Isn't your appointment for three o'clock this afternoon?" A woman who looked to be in her forties greeted them at the door, wearing heavy makeup and chunky jewelry. As she drew closer, however, Janet realized that it was actually a man. She tried not to stare at his fake lashes and his Adam's apple.

"This is Mr. Jarvis," Ethan introduced the man. "He is the chief wedding gown designer of South Pole. He'll take you to get your measurements, and then browse around the shop. If you encounter any problems, just let him know. He'll take care of everything."
