“Absolutely, let’s get Gwendolyn all dolled up. Go ahead and mix and match a look for her, try some makeup on Jeanne lounged on the couch, flipping through the latest fashion magazine, “These heart– shaped earrings, paired with a teardrop diamond necklace, and let’s not forget a pair of silver stilettos.”
“Right this way. Mrs. Chadwick.”
Gwendolyn felt like a fish out of water in these upscale boutiques, utterly at the mercy of the stylists‘ whims
The dress was a piece of Iryna’s Urban Elegance collection, crafted from vintage, oil–painted silk that looked worn yet exuded a certain
charm.
It was a sexy strapless gown that bared her smooth, rounded shoulders, with a daring slit that ran up to her thigh.
Gwendolyn’s figure was the envy of many, with curves in all the right places and porcelain skin that seemed tailor–made for such a dress.
But she was modest by nature and had never wom anything so revealing in public before. Her hands instinctively covered her chest, a clear sign of her discomfort
“Mrs. Chadwick, that dress looks like it was made for you. If I were a man, I’d be unable to take my eyes off you such a beautiful bust The boutique owner marveled, never imagining the curvaceous beauty that lay beneath Gwendolyn’s usual casual attire
No wonder Mr. Chadwick was so smitten with her
A blush crept up Gwendolyn’s cheeks, and she felt shed gained a fair bit of weight in the past three months, particularly in certain areas. Perhaps it was Marina’s cooking, too delectable to resist
“Gwendolyn, this is more tempting than any battle dress Ive seen. My taste is impeccable”
Jeannie’s eyes sparkled, “You’re wearing this one”
“It’s too revealing”
Gwendolyn felt exposed, the fabric barely covering her, and feared the slit would reveal too much with every step
“Some people wish they had something to show off” Jeannie said pointedly, hinting at Selina’s less endowed figure
“Gwendolyn. You’ve got to keep Howard wrapped around your finger. A rose like that at your beck and call, doesn’t it thrill you?”
Gwendolyn was persuaded.
Jeannie efficiently pulled out Howard’s credit card, “Charge it”
“Will do.”
The boutique owner was thrilled with the lucrative sale
After changing out of the strapless slit gown, Gwendolyn left the studio with Jeannie.
In the Hamilton family living room
Derrick’s face was ashen. He tossed the hospital report aside. Claude’s vitals had stabilized unexpectedly, with no signs of danger looming
“What’s wrong, Daddy?” Selina cooed, hugging his arm in confusion
Derrick shook her off, seething with anger, “This is all you’re doing”
He thought he could rest easy after the Lopez family had given up on treatment and Gwendolyn had refused to save Claude. But Selina had thrown a wrench in the works with her wild idea, forcing Gwendolyn to agree.
Now that Claude was out of danger, what if he woke up? Derick suppressed the fear churning inside him. In his mind, a mere girl like Gwendolyn couldn’t possibly wake Claude.
“Daddy?”
Selina’s eyes brimmed with tears, her voice quivering with hurt All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
She was the apple of his eye, and he’d never spoken to her in such a tone before
Derrick inhaled deeply, “Selina, you can’t be rash again. You almost led to Claude’s death this time. What if Gwendolyn decided not to treat him? He would have missed his critical window for treatment”

“Daddy, I’m sorry. But it turned out well, and everyone’s happy” Selina said with a naive smile.
Derrick was at a loss for words, frustrations bubbling within him. He was the only one who wasn’t happy
Holding back his rage, he stormed upstairs. Selina glanced at her phone as a new message pinged.
