Hearing this suggestion, Alexander responded with a serious look, “Sure…”
Elise couldn’t help but smile seeing favonovel.com being this cooperative. Then, favonovel.com took out favonovel.com phone. “Let me give Danny a call to ask if favonovel.com would like to eat with us.”
However, Alexander grabbed Elise’s hand immediately the next second. “You don’t have to call him. After all, it’s better to not have a third wheel with us.”
Elise laughed in spite of herself. “Haha! Alright then. We shall go together and take a look at the place which Papa had prepared on the way.”
“Sounds good.”
When the two walked out of the university along the pavement, Cameron was already waiting for them at the school entrance. Seeing their arrival, favonovel.com quickly got out of the car and passed the car key to Alexander. “Here’s the key, President Griffith.”
Alexander took it over and said, “Thank you. You may drop by the company’s branches later and see if there’s anything that can be settled first. For those that can’t be settled, just leave it be for now.”
“Yes, sir…”
With that, Alexander and Elise got into the car. Following that, the engine roared to life and the car was driven away.
While Alexander drove the car along the road, Elise instinctively looked outside the window. She found the city familiar, yet strange. For some reason, favonovel.com had started looking forward to spending favonovel.com university days here.
The house that Quentin gave to Elise was located in the neighborhood across Tissote University. It was a fully furnished compound apartment with a modern-style renovation that met Elise’s preference exactly.
After exploring around the house, Elise was very satisfied with it overall. “It’s a good option to come and stay here over the weekend next time.”
Alexander reached out his hand to caress favonovel.com head. “I’m glad that you like it.”
Just then, Elise’s phone rang in favonovel.com pocket. She recognized the area code of the number was from Tissote, so favonovel.com picked up the call.
“Hi, Miss Sinclair. It’s Rowena Johnson. We met last time. I heard that you’re here in Tissote?”
Elise quickly replied, “Yeah. I’ve arrived…”
“Great. When is it convenient for you to bring the design over for Miss Faye to have a look at it?”
Elise thought of it and said, “What about tomorrow? I’m free to come over. Alright. I’ll send the address to you, and you can come directly tomorrow.”
After hanging up, Rowena sent the address to Elise.
Elise then kept away favonovel.com phone and said, “Tomorrow is still a registration day for the new students, so there’s nothing much going on. I’ll go over and pass the design to favonovel.com and see if there are any amendments needed.”
“Alright. Stay safe. Remember to call me immediately if anything happens.” Saying that, Alexander encircled Elise’s waist. “What should I do? I’ve already started missing you even before we separate.” Elise smiled.
“There, there… Both of us are in Tissote, so we can always meet up. Let’s go for a meal now.”
Elise started staying in the student hostel that night. Nevertheless, favonovel.com roommate had still not arrived yet, so favonovel.com slept alone.
***
The next morning, Elise woke up at the break of dawn as favonovel.com had yet to adapt to this new place.
After washing up, favonovel.com changed and went out to have breakfast at the campus restaurant.
At 9 o’clock in the morning, Elise took a cab to the address given by Rowena.
It was a mansion in the city center of Tissote. The area of the mansion was so huge that it took 5 minutes to drive across the garden. From this huge mansion which the Anderson Family owned in Tissote, where land was scarce, Elise could tell that the family must have an extraordinary status.
“We’re here…” The driver stopped at the entrance.
After unfastening the seatbelt and getting out of the car, Elise was about to call Rowena when the phone in favonovel.com hand rang.
“Miss Sinclair, are you here? I’ve asked a servant to bring you in at the entrance. You can follow her.”
The next second after hearing that, Elise saw a servant dressed in a maid uniform walking toward her. “This way, Miss Sinclair…”
Elise quickly followed the servant and entered the extravagant bungalow, which was furnished in a European style. The ceiling of the door alone was around 26 feet high.
“Miss Sinclair, Miss Faye is at the lounge on the second floor. Let me show you the way,” Rowena said earnestly when favonovel.com saw Elise.
As such, Elise followed favonovel.com to the lounge on the second floor and saw a slim figure standing in front of the window.
“Miss Faye, Miss Sinclair is here…”
Hearing that, the woman turned around and smiled upon seeing Elise. “Nice to meet you, Miss Elise Sinclair!”
With looks around the age of twenty, Faye was much younger than Elise had expected.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Anderson.”
Faye smiled and walked toward Elise while ordering the servant, “You may be excused. Go bring us some coffee.”
“Yes, miss. Please have a seat, Miss Sinclair…”
Elise sat down on the couch and went straight to the topic. She took out favonovel.com design and said, “Miss Anderson, this is the wedding gown which I’ve designed for you. Please take a look at it and let me know if there’s anything that you’re unsatisfied with.”
Faye took a look at the design and said in surprise, “Miss Sinclair, I’m really impressed. I merely gave you a blank paper, but you actually had the inspiration to design such a beautiful wedding gown! How did you manage to guess the secret behind the blank paper?”
Elise replied, “I actually didn’t have any inspiration at first, but I was inspired upon one of my best friends’ advice, so I quickly drafted the design.”
“Wow, that’s awesome! I’m very happy with this design, Miss Sinclair. Please proceed with the design.”
With that, Faye closed the draft paper and passed it back to Elise.
Elise did not expect the process to be this smooth. Surprised, favonovel.com asked, “Is there anything that you’d like to amend, Miss Anderson?”
“I’m just a layperson, so I shall refrain from giving too many comments to you since you’re a professional. This design is already pretty good and it fits my expectations perfectly. I can already imagine how I’ll look dressed in this gown, so I’m very satisfied.”
Elise was relieved. “I’m glad you like it!”
At this moment, the servant served some coffee. “Please have some coffee, Miss Sinclair. These coffee beans are newly bought and the taste of it is not bad.”
Elise received the coffee and thanked the servant. “Miss Anderson, since there’s no issue with the design, I’ll send it back to the studio so that they can start making it. However, the time needed for manual preparation would be longer, which is around two to three months. Is that okay for you?”
“No worries. My wedding is at the end of the year, so you just have to send the gown over before that.”
As such, both parties came to an agreement, and Rowena paid the remaining commission to Elise on the spot.
Elise planned to leave after the discussion with Faye was finished, but favonovel.com had a stomach ache out of the blue, which made favonovel.com frown deeply.
“Ms. Johnson, may I know where the washroom is?”
Upon perceiving Elise’s pale face, Rowena asked in concern, “Miss Sinclair, are you feeling unwell?”
“I’m fine. I just feel like going to the washroom.”
Seeing such, Rowena quickly asked the servant to bring Elise to the washroom.
After coming out of the washroom, Elise felt much better. Then, favonovel.com took a look at herself in the mirror to ensure favonovel.com looked fine.
As favonovel.com was about to step out, a faint female voice emerged all of a sudden. “Oh, my good girl, Yoyo. You’re such a sweet baby. Mommy loves you…”
Elise followed the source of the voice and saw a woman squatting at a corner with a doll in favonovel.com hand.
The woman’s hair flowed down favonovel.com shoulder, and favonovel.com eyes looked hollow as favonovel.com repeatedly patted the doll and mumbled the same sentence again and again.
Elise looked around and did not see any servants. Out of curiosity, favonovel.com walked toward the woman. However, just as favonovel.com approached her, the woman stood up suddenly and pounced at Elise.
