When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 951: A Joyous Day
Gia felt a little embarrassed by the compliments, her cheeks turning rosy.
The stylist earnestly told her, "Honestly, I rarely see someone like you. Usually, people hire us to make them look beautiful and stunning, trying to cover any flaws."
"It’s someone else’s birthday celebration today, I can’t steal the spotlight," Gia replied softly after changing into her gown, "I’m not the main character."
"It’s the Lancaster Family patriarch’s 80th birthday. A spotlight-stealing moment this isn’t, it’s not a young lady’s engagement party nor a wedding, so today, I anticipate a spectacle of brilliance and beauty. At your age, the invited girls will surely dress up beautifully!"
But Gia suddenly felt a bit of social anxiety. She just wanted to keep a low profile, finish the task quickly, preferably just say hello, have a drink, and leave.
The closer it got, the more nervous she became.
"This dress fits so well, it looks great!" The stylist zipped up her dress, French-style elegance, truly a unique style.
"Thank you." She always responded politely to compliments.
The slimming design perfectly accentuated her figure, the elegant color of the dress easily conveying a sensual femininity.
After changing into the dress, she stepped out of the fitting room, the sound of the door opening brought Nathan Xavier back to his senses as he turned from the window where he stood with hands in pockets.
The beautiful girl caught his eye. This dress was even more beautiful than he had imagined, its neckline design showcasing her slender neck, its simple design not ostentatious, retaining elegance.
Her beauty didn’t even need the dress’s embellishment.
Gia held her skirt as she smiled, taking strides in high heels toward him. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Nathan met her gaze, and for a moment, a sweet illusion washed over him, as if seeing his bride walking toward him, his smile tinged with happiness.
"Does it look good?" Gia stopped in front of him, "Your Xavier Family’s tailor really has a keen eye, both in fabric choice and design, it’s excellent."
"That’s why my mother has collaborated with them for so long." Nathan reached out and gently squeezed her shoulder, "Go on, get your hair done and makeup."
She would surely be the most stunning female guest today.
She nodded and sat in front of the mirror a short distance away, the dressing table full of cosmetics and a large jewelry box.
Her duty was to sit still, leaving the rest to the stylist, her reflection in the mirror beautiful but unfamiliar.
The herbal medicine continued, yet her memory did not return.
Meanwhile, Nathan sat in a nearby armchair, leisurely sipping tea, reading the newspaper, in a good mood as he waited for her.
Today was indeed a day of great significance for the Lancaster Family.
Since Faye Turner disappeared, there hadn’t been such a lively atmosphere, even family gatherings were filled with sadness and solemnity, but today was different. With guests present, they would hide sadness, not joy.
The Lockwood Old Manor, festively adorned in bright red, accented with gold.
Golden, glowing words of prosperity like the East Sea, well-being, and health, combined with lighting effects, were truly beautiful.
Gradually, luxury cars started to gather, the guests arriving to extend birthday wishes, all friends within the circle, or family members.
The parking space had car attendants arranged to open doors for each guest, meticulous in detail.
Caleb Lancaster and Eliza Hayes attended in grand style, both welcoming guests in the courtyard with joyous smiles.
The disappearance of Mrs. Lancaster, Faye Turner, was something almost everyone in Argent’s financial circles knew, deeply regretted, but no one would mention it on a day like today.
In reality, it’s difficult for people to empathize.
In this world, there’s no true shared feelings unless you walk in someone else’s shoes, traverse the path they have walked, experience the pain and struggles they have felt...
To find someone you truly resonate with is already a deep bond.
