Chapter 283 Trying On The Wedding Gown


    In a wedding studio.


    Aisha and Jazlyn apanied the bride and groom to try on their wedding attire. Although Mary


    and Barry were the ones who were to get married, Aisha and Jazlyn seemed more excited. The two


    women''s enthusiastic chats filled the shop, making it livelier.


    "It''s toote to order a tailored wedding gown, so you have to wear ready-made one." Standing


    aside, Barry held Mary''s hand with an apologetic look on his face. "If you''re not satisfied, we could


    make another set particrly for you in the future."


    "It doesn''t matter." Mary smiled at him reassuringly and added, "I don''t really mind."


    "Mary! Mary!" While they were talking, Jazlyn ran to them with a gown in her hand. "This wedding


    gown is very beautiful!" she eximed while blinking her eyes.


    Mary looked at it. It was a gown with a strapless top and long trailing tail. She nodded in agreement.


    "It''s indeed beautiful."


    "This one is beautiful too!" Aisha also came over holding a wedding gown. "Look! This one is


    better!" Mary looked at the one in Aisha''s hands. The gauze and ball gown looked like a princess''s


    gown. "This one is also very good."


    "So which one do you want to wear?" Aisha and Jazlyn asked in unison while staring at Mary


    expectantly.


    "Well..." Mary looked at Barry for help. "What do you think?"


    "I''m sure you''ll look beautiful no matter which one you wear," Barry answered with a look of


    adoration in his eyes.


    At this time, the shop assistant approached them and politely said to Mary, "Excuse me, Ma''am.


    You can go to the fitting room to try them on, so you would know which one suits you better."


    "Yes, she''s right. It''s useless to just look andpare, Mary!" Aisha nodded and pushed Mary


    towards the fitting room.


    Barry was led into the fitting room as well.


    In a nanny van outside the wedding shop, Alick and Elissa were sitting in the car, both seemed


    unhappy and nonchnt.


    "Is Mommy really going to marry Daddy Barry?" Elissa asked with a pout.


    "Yes." Alick nodded and continued, "Mommy is trying on her wedding gown. She is going to get


    married soon." "Is Mommy beautiful in a wedding gown?"


    "She is." Alick nodded again. "We''ve seen Mommy''s photos in a wedding gown, haven''t we? She


    was really beautiful!"


    "Yes, we have," said Elissa while biting her fingertips. "I''ve seen it before. She was beautiful. But


    this time, I don''t want to go in. Mommy doesn''t like Dad anymore. Why will she marry Daddy


    Barry?"


    "Why hasn''t Dade yet?" Feeling bored, Alick leaned against the window. Suddenly, his eyes lit


    up when he saw a familiar figure outside. "It''s Uncle Victor!"


    "Victor? Where is he?" Upon hearing this, Elissa jumped up from her seat, and opened the door.


    She then looked around to find Victor. When she found him, she waved her arm excitedly and


    shouted, "Victor! Hey, Victor! I''m here!"


    Victor had juste from the hospital. As he was about to enter the studio, he heard someone call


    his name. He turned around and smiled upon seeing Elissa. Slowly, he walked to her and greeted,


    "Hey, Elissa!"


    "Hold me! Hold me!" shouted Elissa with her arms outstretched.


    Victor burst intoughter, but obliged when she asked to be held. He kissed her on the cheek and


    asked, "Why are you here? Don''t you want to go in?" "Are you going in?" Elissa asked excitedly,


    overjoyed from receiving a kiss from Victor.


    "Yes, I''m going in there," Victor answered while nodding.


    "Then I want to go in too!"


    "Okay." Victor looked at Alick and asked, "How about you, Alick? Shall we go inside together?


    Mommy and Daddy Barry are both in there."


    After contemting for a while, Alick eventually agreed.


    Holding the two kids in his arms, Victor walked towards the wedding studio.


    "Uncle Victor, can you call my dad?" Alick suddenly said as hey in Victor''s arms. He felt sad that


    his mom chose to marry someone else rather than his father. "I want Dad to take Mommy away."


    "You''re a good boy, Alick," said Victor with a sigh. "But your father... He can''te over now."


    "Is it because Dad has abandoned Mommy, so Mommy decided to marry Daddy Barry?" Alick


    asked again.


    "Well..." Victor was stunned. He did not know what to answer to such a smart kid. "It''s very


    complicated."


    "Adults'' lives are alwaysplicated," Alick observed in a deep thought.


    As soon as the three entered the studio, Aisha saw them at once. With a smile, she walked over


    and happily greeted them.


    "Where are Mary and Barry?" Victor asked when he realized that the two were nowhere in sight. He


    was now ustomed to Aisha and Mary that he already could tell them apart at a nce. Now, he


    chuckled every time he would remember the time when he had mistaken Aisha for Mary in the park.


    "They went inside to try on the clothes," Aisha answered as she stood in front of the three.


    "Are you Mommy or Auntie Aisha?" asked Elissa.


    "Take a guess." Aishaughed and pinched her chubby face.


    "You are my aunt," answered Elissa while pouting. "Mommy would only kiss me. She never pinches


    my face."


    "Ha ha!" Aisha smiledcently and opened her arms to the two kids. "Give me a hug, Alick and


    Elissa!"


    Alick hugged Aisha back, but Elissa wrapped her arms around Victor''s neck. "I don''t want to."


    "Geez!" Aisha rolled her eyes and said, "You little flirt!"


    "Elissa is indeed a flirt!" Alickmented on Elissa''s behavior directly. "She says she''s going to


    marry Uncle Victor in the future."


    "Ha ha! Ha ha ha!" Jazlyn could not help but burst intoughter. When herughter had finally


    subsided, she joked, "Little beauty, do you want to try on a wedding gown and get married together


    with your mother at the same time? Mommy will marry your Daddy Barry, and you will marry Victor.


    What do you think?"


    "Really? Can I?" Although Jazlyn was joking, Elissa took it seriously. She hugged Victor tighter and


    said, "May I marry Victor?"


    "Elissa..." Victor just smiled helplessly. Should he feel happy that even a kid fell for his charm?


    "What are youughing at?" Suddenly, a voice came from the direction of the fitting room. Barry


    pushed the door open and walked out in his suit. He smiled and said excitedly, "Finally! Alick and


    Elissa, you finally came in!"


    "Daddy Barry is so handsome!" said Elissa sincerely.


    "Thank you, Elissa!" Barry walked over wearing a decent and dazzling suit.


    "I''m very satisfied with this bridegroom!" Aisha nodded in satisfaction.


    Barry smiled in response.


    "Daddy Barry," called Alick weakly. "Yes, Alick?" He looked at the boy and reached out his hand.


    "Do you want Daddy Barry to hold you?"


    All of a sudden, Alick''s eyes turned red for some reason. He could not wait to throw himself into


    Barry''s arms. "Daddy Barry!"


    "Good boy!" Barry happily held him in his arms. However, his heart suddenly felt a pinch of pain. He


    realized that he had never held his own son this way.


    "I like Daddy Barry," Alick said while choking in sobs. "But do you really have to marry Mommy?"


    "Alick." The only thing Barry could say was his name. He, too, felt mixed feelings in his heart.


    Deep inside, he knew Mary still loved William. No matter what he did, she still had not forgotten the


    father of her children. But was he any better than William? He had hidden from Mary his one night


    stand with Sh. Also, he concealed the truth from her that he already had a son.


    "It''s your father''s fault. That guy named William Lan is not as good as you think!" Aisha exined,


    "Don''t you know that he hurt your mom? That''s why Daddy Barry has to take care of your mommy!"


    Hearing her exnation, neither Alick nor Elissa said anything more.


    "The bride ising out!" The shop assistant''s voice pulled everyone back to reality. They looked at


    the direction of the fitting room all at once.


    Mary walked out from the back of the huge mirror. She was wearing a snow-white wedding dress,


    and white roses seemed to blossom on the vines which spiraled down from her shoulder. The gown


    also had a long tail at the back which made her look more noble and beautiful.


    It was Barry, who first returned to his senses when he met Mary''s gaze. For some reason, he


    quickly averted his eyes.


    Mary felt a little shy. Seeing that none of herpanions spoke, she became confused and worried.


    "Well... Isn''t this one good? Don''t you like it?"


    "It''s so beautiful!" Jazlyn gave herment first.


    "Mommy is the most beautiful!" Elissa echoed.


    "It is said that the bride is the most beautiful woman in the world. It''s true," said Victor with a smile,


    with a hint of reluctance and regret in his eyes.


    A bright smile appeared on Mary''s face.


    Meanwhile, Barry was stunned. He still could not believe that Mary would really marry him.


    With Alick in his arms, he slowly walked up to her as if in a daze. He swallowed nervously, making


    his Adam''s apple roll up and down. "Mary, am I dreaming?"


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Mary just blushed in response.


    "Mommy is so beautiful!" Alick leaned over and kissed his mother on the cheek.


    The smile on Mary''s face widened. "Alick, do you like it?"


    "Yes, I do!"


    "Come on, bride and groom! Look over here!" Aisha took out her phone and smiled at the three


    people through the camera. "I''m going to take a wedding photo!"


    Wedding photo...


    For a moment, Mary was in a trance. It was as if she was back many years ago when she was


    taking wedding photos with someone else. That time they had booked the whole set. However, after


    so many years, a few were still had not been taken yet, except those kept by William.


    The sh suddenly went off as Aisha captured the photo. But for no reason, Mary remembered the


    kiss in that photo studio.


    "I think this one is enough. What do you think, my dear brother-inw?" Aisha walked up to Barry


    and showed the photos she had taken. "Look, you are handsome too. What do you think?" "Yes. I


    like them." Barry nodded. Brother-inw.


    "What do you think, my dear sister?" Aisha then walked to Mary and showed her the pictures.


    All of a sudden, Mary went back to her senses. She raised her eyes and nodded, "Very good."


    "Alright then. It''s time to choose the bridesmaid''s dress," initiated Jazlyn. She nodded her head and


    held one of Victor''s arms and said, "My dear groomsman, shall we go choose our attire together?"


    "I hate you!" All of a sudden, Elissa pouted and red at Jazlyn. "Victor is not your dear!" she


    roared.


    "Geez." Jazlyn shrugged. "Elissa, I know Victor is yours. I won''t take him away!"


    "That''s right! Victor is mine only." Elissa nodded in satisfaction.


    "Mary, do you want a grown-up son-inw?" "Yes, why not?"


    "Ha ha!" Everyone''sughter filled the studio.


    In the children''s inpatient area of People''s Hospital of A City.


    "Ray, be a good boy. We have to remove the stitches today," said Shfortingly while holding


    her son in her arms. "When the stitches are removed, you will be able to see everything. That


    means your eyes havepletely recovered."


    "I''m so happy, Mommy!"


    "When you recover, how about I take you on a trip?" Sh asked absent-mindedly as she looked in


    the distance.


    "That''s awesome!" Ray nodded in delight. "But where are we going? And are we going alone?"


    "Yes, only Mommy and Ray," she replied. "Where do you want to go, Ray?"


    "Wherever you want to go!"


    "I see. I''ll take you somewhere random then," Sh replied jokingly but her smile was sad. All she


    knew was that she wanted to leave this city where her heart shattered into pieces.


    Knock. Knock. Knock.


    A knock was suddenly heard on the door.


    "Come in, please." Sh quickly stood up to wee the doctor that would remove Ray''s stitches.


    But the person who came in was no doctor. It was Barry. As he pushed the door open, he met


    Sh''s eyes, making him lose in thought for a moment. After leaving the wedding studio, he came


    to the hospital without hesitation. He wanted to see his own son right away. Stunned, Sh''s body


    went rigid. She opened her mouth to speak, but only uttered a few wary words. "Mr. Gu. You... What


    are you doing here?"
