"Alright. As long as he agrees to it, I am fine with any design."
In fact, a wedding gown should have been the dress that a woman looked forward to the most in her life. However, gazing at this beautiful wedding gown, Coralie felt nothing, as if it was something unrelated to her.
"Ok, please choose the lace style here as well as the gems you would like to have on your belt."
The designer discussed with Coralie some other details. She even looked for all the drafts she had made on the other fine details and let Coralie choose.
"You're the designer. You can choose whatever that's suitable."
"Ok."
The designer didn't expect that Coralie was so easy to talk to. She immediately put away the drafts.
"I'll leave it to you then."
Coralie made a slight bow to the designer politely.
At that moment, Yohan came in. Seeing that the measurements had already been taken, he asked, "Have you seen the drafts? Let them edit it if you are not satisfied with it."
"I'm good. I like it very much. Thank you." Coralie shook her head.
"Well, I knew you would like it. You've liked that kind of dress since you were a child."
Yohan was overjoyed when he heard that Coralie liked the design. He couldn't contain his happiness.
Coralie chose not to tell him that after so many years, she no longer liked princess dresses anymore. It was because she had grown up; she no longer dreamed of being a princess.
"By the way, are we going back soon? I have two close friends here. I want to see them separately. Is that ok?"
Coralie was referring to Xenia and Josephine.
In fact, the person she wanted to meet the most was Xenia. She wanted to ask if Hendric was doing okay. She wanted to ask if he had recovered.
She was not worried since Skylar was looking after Hendric. However, she still wanted to check on it herself. She even wanted to see Hendric, even though she only got to do it from a distance.
"Ok."
Since both the wedding date and the wedding dress had been set, Yohan was no longer anxious. He immediately agreed to Coralie's request.
......
Coralie met Xenia that night. Although Yohan agreed to her request without hesitation, he was still the one who booked the restaurant for Coralie to meet up with Xenia. He even reserved the entire place just for them.
When Xenia carried her bag as she entered the restaurant, she understood what happened when she noticed that there wasn't any guest.
"Booking the whole area just for this meetup? He's being too cautious."
Xenia witnessed Yohan take away Coralie a year ago. She didn't like Yohan.
"Well, I don't have a choice."
Coralie didn't complain about Yohan. She was used to being controlled by him. It was normal for her to experience such treatments.
"He's too controlling." Xenia shook her head.
"How is Hendric?"
Coralie didn't want to talk too much about Yohan. She did not want to further complicate the relationship between her and Yohan. The die was cast, and there was no turning back at that point.
"Hendric was discharged from the hospital two or three months ago. Before that, I often visited him. But Skylar had been taking care of him after he got out of the hospital."
"That's great."
Coralie felt relieved that Hendric had recovered and that Skylar was taking care of Hendric.
However, she also knew that it was impossible for her to meet Hendric at this moment.
"Coralie, you are planning to meet them now that you have come back, aren't you?"
Xenia seemed to have realized Coralie's situation. Coralie was being watched by Yohan, it would have been difficult for her to see Hendric, not to mention Skylar.
"No. I'm happy enough to know that Hendric has recovered."
Xenia snapped, "That's your son. Don't tell me you're really planning to stay with Yohan forever!"
"Well, he is very kind to me."
Facing Xenia's question, Coralie hesitated for a moment before she answered Xenia indirectly.
In fact, Yohan really treated Coralie very well. Although he had strange preference toward Coralie's likings, most of the time he would listen to her.
