Chapter 67
Halle exclaimed excitedly and answered the call. “Have you finished my dress?”
“I’m sorry, Ms. Halle. We’ve decided to cancel your reservation for the dress.”
“What?!” Halle’s eyes widened in shock. “H–How could you do that? I paid the deposit!”
“I’m very sorry. The order came from top management, Don’t worry, though. We’ll compensate you for your loss.”
“I don’t want your compensation! I want my dress! I want the dress that Hamish designed!” Halle
shouted.
“We’ve transferred the compensation to your account. Please verify it.”
“I won’t agree to this! I’m… Hello? Hey!”
They had hung up.
Halle was so angry she smashed her phone. “Damn that Tang Fusion Studios! I can’t believe they decided to cancel my reservation just like that!”
“What on earth happened?” Rowena asked, confused.
“How would I know?!” Halle roared. Then, it hit her. She whipped her head at Rowena, who had also
remembered their conversation with Bonnie.
Naturally, they didn’t think it was at all related. It must have been pure coincidence.
Ivor was in his study giving instructions to Floyd. “Give Tang Fusion Studios another call. I want that dress. It’s the most elaborate dress I’ve ever seen. It has to be mine.”
Floyd was troubled. “I’ve just had a call with them. Someone’s already bought that dress, Mr. Ivor.”
“Who’s the buyer? I’ll talk to him myself.”
Ivor was trying to surprise Bonnie, but he didn’t think it would be this hard.
“I asked them. They said one of the people in top management bought it.
“Do you have a name?”
“I’ll ask.”
Floyd managed to find out soon. “It was their chairman, Mr. Ivor.”
Ivor had no choice but to give up.
When Floyd saw how dark Ivor’s face was, he asked, “Should I contact another top fashion designer, Mr. Ivor?”
Ivor waved him away. “Do it.”

The Knight family’s annual dinner party commenced a week later. Ivor had Floyd send the dress he had gotten Bonnie to her room.
“Ms. Bonnie says she has a dress for herself already, Mr. Ivor.” Floyd took the dress Ivor prepared all the way downstairs.
He frowned. Was it because she didn’t want to accept his gift?
Floyd looked at Bonnie’s room and said, “I know this is just a family dinner party, but all the branches of the Knight family will play their games and try to further their agendas there. If Ms. Bonnie is dressed too plainly, they might make fun of her.”
“Let her dress however she wants. I won’t forgive anyone who ridicules her.”
After he heard what his master said, Floyd decided to keep his thoughts to himself.
As their conversation drew to an end, they heard a door opening upstairs.
“Is Ms. Bonnie done? Did she put on any makeup?” Floyd was worried that Bonnie would be dressed too plainly.
However, his jaw dropped to the floor when he saw Bonnie. Ivor stood up involuntarily too, his black eyes trained on Bonnie.
