When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 942: Maybe It’s Love
Gia understood now why the white dress Rhiannon Xavier wore last time didn’t fit; it was because the size was wrong, which was quite amusing.
How could she still come over to flaunt it? She hadn’t even been invited!
"Thank you." Gia returned to her senses and took it with both hands. "No need to try it on; it will definitely fit. Would you like to sit for a while? I’ll make some tea."
"No, no, I just need to discuss something with Madam," the tailor bowed to her. "Miss Gia, I’ll leave first. If it doesn’t fit, please contact me promptly."
"Okay."
She watched the tailor turn and leave.
Gia carried the delicate box into the room, placed it gently on the table, and carefully opened it...
A light pink dress was neatly folded, lying quietly inside.
Just a glance at the material showed the care that had gone into it. Smooth, fitting, and not prickly, the high-end fabric was crisp and had a good luster, with a skin-friendly texture, natural dye, and very well-done craftsmanship.
Previously, none of the clothes the tailor made for her were ill-fitting.
No girl dislikes beautiful clothes. Gia carefully took it out. It was a French-style gown, fitted and vintage.
The trendy design highlighted the fitting curves, with fringes over the chest and shoulders, effortlessly exuding femininity.
Gia didn’t try it on because she trusted the tailor’s skill. Her previous clothes always fit perfectly.
Admiring the dress, she folded it back carefully and gently placed it back in the box, waiting for Nathan Xavier to inform her of the date of the birthday banquet.
Just after she had put the dress back in the box, his call came through. Seeing the caller ID, her slender fingers slid across to answer, "Hello, Nathan."
"Did you receive the dress?" Nathan Xavier was standing in front of the window in the CEO’s office with one hand in his pocket, smiling as he looked at the clouds moving outside.
"I received it. It’s very beautiful." Gia smiled slightly. "When are we... going?"
"Next Monday."
She recalled that today was Friday, so it was only a few days away.
"Alright." Gia didn’t ask if there was anything special to be aware of. After all, she would just follow him, and she wouldn’t speak up unnecessarily.
The man asked warmly, "Have you finished the rabbit meat?" He always wanted to find a topic, to chat with her a bit longer. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Not yet, I’ve eaten one, but there’s still one left." Her eyes sparkled with a smile, and thinking of the man’s handsome and gentle appearance, she felt a surge of joy.
"Is there anything you’re particularly craving? I can get it for you, or... I could take you out to buy it after work today?"
Gia suddenly sensed that he might... like her?
At this thought, her heartbeat involuntarily sped up, and her cheeks flushed.
"No need." She smiled, politely refusing. "We have everything at the mansion, and I’m currently on herbal medicine. The doctor said to eat less of other things for better efficacy."
"That’s true." Nathan Xavier could even imagine what it would be like to bring her to Grandpa Lancaster’s birthday banquet.
She was so beautiful... sure to amaze everyone and leave a deep impression in many people’s hearts.
If he could, he would pursue her and give her enough security.
Every time he saw her, the joy that sprang from his heart.
Even though he didn’t understand her at all, just looking into her eyes, he felt that kindness and was at ease.
The two chatted briefly before ending the call.
Gia held the phone for a long time, recalling Nathan Xavier’s special attention to her these days.
Every time he saw her, the deep affection in his eyes... made her feel happy and fearful at the same time.
She hoped her guess was wrong... that he wouldn’t fall for her.
He was the esteemed young master of The Xavier Family, the CEO of Xavier Group.
And she was just a mysterious woman recuperating here after being injured. There could be no feelings between them; she couldn’t repay his kindness with betrayal, dragging him down.
