Chapter 1201: Chapter 1198: Suddenly Regretted It

As a woman herself, she couldn’t help but feel her heart race at the sight.

Joanna Lawrence was a little embarrassed by the praise and blushed, saying to the salesperson, "Thank you."

The evening dress exposed a bit of her shoulders, showing off her slender neck and collarbone. The mermaid style further elongated her already great figure to even more perfect proportions.

Joanna was 165 cm tall.

But in this evening dress, she looked as if she was 170 cm tall.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she realized that men’s taste could be quite reliable for the first time.

Ashton Heath’s taste in clothes was beyond reproach.

She really loved the dress he had custom-made for her.

Joanna admired herself in the mirror for a while before remembering, at the salesperson’s prompting, that Ashton was still waiting for her.

In the rest area.

Ashton Heath was looking at an electronic file that Cody Aberton had sent him.

"Mr. Ashton, Ms. Joanna has finished changing into her evening dress."

He heard footsteps approaching and then the salesperson’s voice.

Ashton held his phone in one hand, looking up indifferently.

His gaze fell on Joanna the moment she appeared, and a subtle flash of amazement crossed his calm eyes as he stared at her intently.

The expression on his face was not as indifferent as before.

His dark eyes silently scanned the girl who seemed like a fairy that had fallen into the mortal world from head to toe, finally settling on her delicate, porcelain-white face.

At this moment, Ashton suddenly regretted his decision.

He regretted why he had ordered such a dress for her.

Her beauty should only be seen by him alone.

He didn’t want anyone else to see this beautiful side of her.

At this moment, the girl in front of him was stunningly beautiful, dazzlingly so.

Just moments ago, even he had been momentarily moved by her, deeply amazed.

Not to mention other men.

"How is it?" Joanna lifted her skirt a little, feeling a bit uncomfortable under his stare. "I think the size is just right, and the style is pretty nice too. What do you think?"

The long dress she wore was not overly revealing or frivolous.

It wasn’t too conservative either, to the point of being rigid.

The innocent charm of the girl blended well with the seductive elegance of the woman.

Amazement lingered in Ashton’s eyes, while regret weighed heavily on his heart.

He wanted to say that the dress wasn’t particularly nice and didn’t look good on her, and suggest picking another one for her.

But such a statement was just too insincere, and he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

The salesperson chimed in, "Mr. Ashton, the custom-made dress you ordered for Ms. Joanna really suits her. Ms. Joanna looks so beautiful in it, like a fairy."

Indeed, she looked as lovely as a fairy.

Only, he didn’t want anyone else to see her looking so good.

"Well, it’s not bad," he couldn’t bring himself to say anything too disingenuous, but Ashton didn’t want to tell Joanna how stunning she truly looked in the dress either.

With his hidden motives, the man put on an earnest face and suggested, "However, I think there might be something more suitable for you. Why don’t you take a look at some other styles?"

At his words, the salespeople were stunned.

They looked at him in surprise.

Wasn’t this good enough?

They all thought it was super gorgeous.

Moreover, this was a custom-made dress, not something that can be exchanged for another style from a store.

If he didn’t think it was suitable, wouldn’t that mean the several million dollars spent on the dress would go to waste?
