Chapter 750 The Wedding Dress (Part One)
"Are you sure you don''t have time?" Duke continued to ask him. He leaned back in the chair, like he
didn''t have a care in the world.
"Strictly speaking, it''s not that I don''t have any time at all. It all depends on why you''re taking me to
lunch." Tom circled thest spot on theputer screen, and checked the surgical simtion results
on theputer. But the result was not that satisfying, he felt a little depressed and began to research
other feasible operation ns.
"Why do you think there has to be a reason for me to take you to lunch? I''m not your boss, who has
purposes behind his every request for you." While saying this, Duke felt a little guilty. Because like Tom
had predicted, he did have ulterior motives for feeding him.
"Cut the crap! Do you think I don''t know what''s on your mind? You want me to check on Belinda''s
wounds, right? Just bring her to my office in the hospital. I''m super-preupied and can''t go out
today." His theories for the surgery proved unworkable, so he had to go back to the drawing board, and
rework everything.
"What''s up Tom? Why are you so busy?" Duke furrowed his brows. Everyone he hung out with hated
hospitals. Tom was an exception -- as well he should be -- because he was a doctor. That was why
Duke wanted Tom toe to his house.
"Ah! I don''t really want to talk about it. I''m working out ways to save Edward''s love rival now." Tom
intentionally stressed the word "love rival". Probably because they had known each other for a very
long time, so in regr cases, they could practically read each others'' minds.
"What love rival? Are you kidding me?" Subconsciously, Duke felt Tom was messing with him. In his
memory, Tom was indeed very generous, but to save a troublemaker who would cause nothing but
drama? That wasn''t like Tom at all. He looked very gentle and elegant from his appearance, but he was
definitely a wicked man in Duke''s eyes.
"You can call him and ask him yourself if you don''t believe me. I can''t exin it in detail now. But don''t
mention that I told you this." Edward couldn''t know that the news about his love rival would spread so
quickly. Tom knew that it was somewhat confidential, but he was so overworked that he let it slip.
Besides Edward, only Tom knew about this matter. He was so stupid to warn Duke not to mention him
in front of Edward. Edward was so clever, he would immediately figure out that Tom tipped the news to
Duke without hesitation.
"Do you think I''m that stupid to find trouble for myself? I probably won''t even bring it up. Let''s drop it
now, we can talk when we meet at noon." Duke shook his head. The matter of saving his love rival
might have already been a very depressing thing to Edward, if Duke asked Edward about it, that would
undoubtedly be adding fuel to the fire. Edward''s angry fire might also burn Duke. So he would not be
stupid enough to take that risk.
"Okay. Don''t forget to bring me some lunch when youe to my officeter." Tom didn''t take his eyes
off the X-Ray film on his table, he was so busy, so he took it for granted when he asked Duke to bring
him lunch.
"Am I your takeout delivery guy?" Duke said, gritting his teeth. Why did he have to prepare lunch for the
doctor when he went to the hospital?
"Haha... You offered to take me out, so get some food on your way here. I don''t see a problem here.
Remember to bring some food I like." As soon as Tom finished his words, he hung up immediately. If he
was right, Duke would shout at him angrilyter. So in the interest of saving his ears, not to mention his
phone''s speaker, he hung up before Duke could scream at him.
Hearing the phone being hung up, Duke''s face twisted with rage. He gripped the cellphone firmly in his
hand. ''Fine, Tom, you are such a dick to hang up on me like that. Wait and see how I punish youter, ''
Duke thought.
After a whole night''s work, Leena finally stitched all the pearls onto the wedding dress. Although the
pearl was not a very precious thing to them, since they were a rich family, it had always been an image
symbolizing wealth, perfection, happiness and nobility. And that was exactly what she wanted to
express for her blessings to Duke and Belinda.
Satisfied with her work, Leena lifted up the dress and pressed it to her body to see how it looked.
Looking herself in the mirror, she smiled shyly. The bashful smile made her look all the more pretty and
lovely. Remembering that their wedding day was approaching in a few days, although she was a little
tired, she still quickly put the dress inside a bag. But when she took the bag and was ready to go, she
somewhat felt she forgot something. After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized that she had
forgotten to pack the bridegroom''s tuxedo.
She carefully took out the tuxedo she had prepared for Duke from the wardrobe and carefully put it into

another bag, trying her best to keep it smooth. Probably it would get wrinkled when she arrived at his
house, it didn''t matter. She could use the steam iron to remove the wrinkles. Of course, she also
needed to bring the cocktail dress for Belinda, the one she would wear after the wedding ceremony. So
she had prepared everything in regards to their wedding garments, and the couple didn''t have to worry
about it at all.
She checked again to make sure she didn''t forget anything. Happy with that, she walked outside
delightedly. Although it was autumn now, the sun was still scorching hot. So she immediately put on her
sunsses as soon as she stepped out of the house. With several big bags in her hands, she looked
ufortable, trying to handle them all and walk at the same time.
She put all the things in her Ferrari. But at the moment when she prepared to start the engine, it
suddenly came to her that she had ignored a very important thing. Where should she send the wedding
dress? If she sent these garments to their house, they were certainly not at home now. If she sent them
to thepany, it would attract a lot of attention. For the moment, she was caught up with this
question.
After thinking for a while, she decided to call Belinda and let her decide.
She regretted not calling her before she set out, otherwise she wouldn''t be so confused now.
"Hello! Leena, what''s up? Why do you suddenly call me?" Because Belinda''s wounds hadn''t been
review. She didn''t expect that Leena would call her, so she was a little surprised when she received the
call.
"The wedding dress is finished. Are you avable now? I''ll send it to you." Leena talked on the phone
while backing the car. Her face looked smaller with the big sunsses on her nose.
"It''s done already? So soon! I''m at home. You can send it to the house." Belinda''s heart beat faster and
she didn''t know why. Perhaps every woman felt this way in a moment such as this. And why not? She
was getting married soon. She was nervous but excited. The man she would marry was her prince
charming, so she was so looking forward to the wedding.
"Okay! Aren''t you supposed to be at the office today?" Although Leena was full of doubts, she still
drove towards Duke''s cottage. A sleepless night made her look a little tired, but that didn''t make her
less beautiful.
"Yes. Well, I don''t feel good today, so I take a day off. and rest at home." Belinda stood up and got
herself a ss of water. Then she sat on the sofa.
"Okay, I''ll be there right away, see youter." Leena put aside her cellphone and pressed on the
elerator. She sped up and drove quickly on the busy streets of the city.
Belinda stuck out her delicate tongue and licked her dry lips. She spaced out for a while, lost in
thought, but finally she ced the cellphone on the tea table. Then she lifted the ss and took several
sips of water.
In fact, she was really curious to see what the wedding dress would look like. She only worried that the
wicked Leena would get some fancy ideas and choose a weird style for her. If that was the case, she
would really be mad. Because it would be toote to pick another wedding dress -- the wedding date
was right around the corner. She hoped that Leena''s choice wasn''t too disappointing. She was a
fashionable young girl and she was supposed to have an eye for beauty.
She raised her head and checked the time. Then she walked downstairs. It happened to be lunch time,
and she figured that Leena hadn''t eaten lunch yet. So she wanted to go downstairs to ask Giselle to
prepare something that Leena liked.
When Leena''s car entered her family home, she didn''t notice that a Maybach soon followed. Before
she realized it, Duke suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Leena, you''re here too?" Seeing that Leena was also here, Duke felt overjoyed. He hadn''t seen her for
several days. He hadn''t gotten even a phone call from her. He had thought of going to see her when he
had time. He was surprised by her sudden appearance.
"Duke, aren''t you supposed to be at work today?" Leena frowned and nced at Duke doubtfully. Then
she lifted up the trunk of the car and bent down to take the two big bags of clothing out.
"I just came back from the office. What are these?" Duke took the bags from Leena, fearing that
holding the bags would weary his dear sister.
"They are the wedding dress and the tuxedo. Did you forget that your wedding day is only a few days
away?" Having someone take the bags, Leena felt very rxed. She walked briskly towards the house,
eager to flee from the scorching sun.
