After Minerva finished speaking, she seemed to think of something and quickly grabbed her phone to make a video call. Before long, someone answered her video call.

“Darling, where are you?” Emerson Hampton’s voice was magnetic and pleasant, filled with affection.

“Can you help me decide if this dress looks good? I’m thinking of wearing it for the engagement,” Minerva said, directing the camera toward the full–length mirror.

Through the phone’s camera, Emerson could perfectly see Minerva’s figure. He studied her intently, his gaze filled with a hint of desire. Then, he said, “Buy everything you tried on today. When I get home, I want you to model each one for me, and then we can decide which to wear for the engagement.”

Minerva couldn’t help but chuckle at his words. “I’ll think about it.”

She knew Emerson wouldn’t be much help in making her decision. Even if she wore à burlap sack, he would probably think she looked like a goddess.

“Send me your location. I’ll drive over now. Our engagement is a shared affair, so let’s pick together,” he insisted.

Minerva nodded. “Alright.”

She sent him the address.

Skylar hadn’t expected Minerva to jump on a video call with her boyfriend. She was caught off guard by the sweet display of affection. With a teasing smile, she looked at Minerva and said, Looks like I can step back now?”

Minerva blushed slightly and said, “He’ll take about half an hour to get here, so stay with me a bit longer.”

“Sure, I’ll make the most of these 30 minutes.” Skylar laughed.

Minerva excitedly headed back to try on more dresses, while Skylar waited on the couch, feeling a bit bored. This dress design studio was quite famous in Jipsburg.

The head designer had won numerous awards and many celebrities scrambled to wear their creations on the red carpet.

While Skylar waited, a couple entered the studio.

“I have a friend who came to Jipsburg for an event and chose her outfit here. She said the designers are quite talented and recommended I check it out. Ned, I won’t take too long. I just want to see their styles. If I don’t like them, we can leave.”

“Sure, take your time.”

Two familiar voices echoed in the room, quickly followed by the sound of high heels clicking against the marble floor.

Skylar looked up at the noise, her gaze falling on the source.

When she saw Ned and Rosa, her expression faltered in surprise. She hadn’t expected to run

into them here.

Skylar thought their lives wouldn’t cross again. But to her shock, they met just a day after their last encounter.

Ned and Rosa noticed Skylar at the same moment. They both appeared equally surprised. Especially Rosa, who frowned slightly at the sight of Skylar.

Ned’s unreadable eyes locked on Skylar as if he were wondering whether this woman could be following him.

Back in Murida, he had plenty of women trying to get close to him, some even stalking him. Many wanted to climb into his bed.

But soon, he dismissed the idea. It was clear Skylar wasn’t the type to stalk him.

Rosa broke the silence first, her brow still furrowed. “Hey, what a coincidence! Running into you here.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

had brought up Skylar, which left Rosa curious about what kind of relationship Skylar

had with Joe.
