Chapter 1601
When There Is Nothing Left But Love
Summer simply frowned and kept quiet.
Thinking I could be of some assistance, I asked instinctively, âWhatâs going on? What models? Arenât
the couples on stage actual ones that are going to get married soon?â
âNot all of them. The first few pairs are internet celebrity couples, but the rest are all just good-looking
actors and models that we hired. Good-looking facial features can really bring surprising results,â Jared
explained.
The concept was as simple as packaging oneâs product nicely to make it seem more appealing, but the
problem wasnât an easy one to solve.
While everyone was gathered around and brainstorming for a solution, I had an idea all of a sudden.
âSince theyâre not real couples, we could just get two women with attractive faces to take their place!â
The staff who delivered the bad news earlier shrugged and shook his head as he said, âWe have
thought about that, but we couldnât find anyone suitable. Most of us working in this field donât really care
much for appearances, you see. We canât approach tourists for help either, soâ¦â
So who do we go to for help? That is the question.
I frowned as I continued to rack my brain for a solution. That was when I noticed Emery through the
corner of my eye and had another idea.
Her face and figure donât look like a married womanâs, thatâs for sure! Now, weâre still short of one
person. I know John would never let his wife make a public appearance like that, so that makes me the
only suitable candidate for this task!
With that in mind, I decided to go all out and proposed, âWe do have suitable replacements. I think
Emery and I can replace the two models. If Summer is okay with this suggestion, weâll go with this plan
and proceed with the preparations right away!â
I had thought that Summer would politely refuse my offer, and that Emery would require a lot of coaxing
and persuading for her to agree to it.
However, things were quite the opposite.
âIn that case, Iâll thank you in advance, Mommy!â Summer replied.
âYeah, I had the same idea in mind. Come on, letâs go get our makeup done!â
The staff members burst into laughter. âThis way, ladies!â
Just like that, I was being dragged backstage by the staff members while still confused as to where I
went wrong.
The assistant was already calling for the seventieth couple by the time we entered the changing room,
so we would be up in about ten minutes.
As the traditional wedding dress was very complicated in design, I couldnât figure out how to wear it and
had to ask the staff member for help. Eventually, I managed to put it on with the help of Emery and two
female staff members.
I found myself shocked when I glanced at the mirror and could barely believe that was me in the
reflection.
The stunning contrast of the vibrant red and green colors of the dress was something that all
Chanaeans could relate to.
This reminds me of the white wedding gown I wore when I married Ashton back then. I could barely
see his face through the bridal veil, and I even had a pair of white gloves on my hands when we
exchanged our rings. However, that tiny ring that was supposed to symbolize our vows and bind us
together didnât seem to work, given all the obstacles we went through later on. This traditional wedding
dress, on the other hand, gives off joyful and festive vibes with its dazzling colors. Who knows, maybe
our marriage suffered so much because I didnât wear this for my wedding? Maybe traditional wedding
dresses had the ability to bless the couple with a happy marriage? Man, since when did a materialist
like me start believing in such superstitions?
I couldnât help but let out a chuckle at the thought of that.
âYou look absolutely stunning, Scarlett!â Emery exclaimed in admiration as she stood next to me.
Women love being called beautiful, and I was no exception. As I flashed her a shy smile in response, I
couldnât help but notice a huge difference between our wedding dresses.
Emeryâs wedding dress looks rather plain and simple, whereas mine looks really fancy and
extravagant. And this phoenix coronet that Iâm wearing feels kind of familiar⦠Oh, I remember! This is
the most valuable item in the Hanfu flagship store from before!
