Chapter 803 Do The Fitting
J just cast a look at Dalores, and then walked out of the room to greet Laney herself.
Assisted by a servant, an elegantly-dressed woman got out of the posh Mercedes-Maybach. She
was wearing a salmon pink dress under a creamy white knitted coat. Her long hair was nicely
coifed. Toplete her sophisticated look, a strand of lustrous pearl ne hung on her slender
neck.
When she saw J, Laney smiled. "I didn''t expect you toe and pick me up."
"Well, I know you''reing," J said as she walked towards Laney. She then reached out to
hold Laney''s hands. "I''m so happy to see you looking so good."
Taking a nce at the studio, Laney asked in a soft voice, "Is there a celebration inside? I can hear
it from here. Quite lively, it seems."
"Oh, it''s nothing," J said, smiling. "We''re just talking about work, so it''s a bit spirited."
Dalores rushed out of the studio, thinking that there would be a big order. She wanted to wee
thedy that the receptionist mentioned. She had just taken a few steps when she saw J and
Laneying in, talking andughing. Dalore''s smile froze for a moment. She then turned around
with disappointment.
Dalores was well-informed from all the gossips she had heard from the upper-ssdies'' circle.
Laney''s birth family was not really wealthy, so she had no status in the Harding family. But she was
carrying a Harding child so she was just relying on how favorably the child might be to them.
Dalores sneaked a nce at Laney''s belly. Noticing the baby bump, she sneered.
Laney was just another in Jane who got lucky to be pregnant with a Harding child.
J brought Laney into the dressing room where a stunning outfit was hanging in the closet. She
removed the dress from the rack and motioned for Laney to try it on. "As you''re pregnant now, I may
have to modify the waistline so you can wear it at the dinner party." Laney nodded, smiling
sheepishly. She then went inside the fitting room and closed the door behind her.
A little whileter, Laney opened the door. She stuck out her head, revealing her slightly crimson
face.
"Something''s wrong?" asked J in a low voice as she shuffled over to Laney. "The dress doesn''t
fit you?"
Laney shook her head and said, "The dress fits me very well, but I seldom wear such closefitting
clothes so I feel a little embarrassed."
She then walked out of the fitting room.
J''s eyes lit up. The ck dress fitted Laney to aT.
The dress was made from soft lightweight fabric that the hemline fell flowingly just above the knee.
The off-shoulder design drew the attention to the slender neck and straight back. The overall effect
gave Laney an even more elegant look.
The others in the studio couldn''t help but gasp in admiration for Laney. Theyplimented on how
beautiful she looked and how the dress fitted her perfectly.
"Well, well, well, J had designed the dress beautifully!"
Tasha was very impressed. "Miss Laney, the dress looks great on you. Mrs. Harding will definitely
approve of it."
As soon as Tasha had finished speaking, she caught Dalores ring at her.
She felt uneasy, so she decided to keep her mouth shut.
Dalores looked at the dress on Laney and was not happy with what she saw.
But she had to admit that J was really talented as a designer. The dress looked amazing on
Laney, even enhancing her already beautiful features.
What made Dalores even angrier was Laney would wear the gorgeous dress to the charity ball,
which would be attended by many celebrities.
And Laney''s stunning appearance could make J famous.
This had happened to Draco. He became famous overnight for a haute couture dress. Would J
have the same luck?
Dalores felt goose bumps thinking about this.
J seemed oblivious to all thepliments. Her eyes were fixed on Laney.
The dress she made was beautiful on Laney. The waist area however was a little tight, entuating
the baby bump.
When J was about to say something, she was interrupted by Dalores, "Miss Laney, as you are
clearly pregnant, the dress only make you look more plump."

Laney''s face flushed with embarrassment. She didn''t want to make her pregnancy known to the
public just yet. Dalores was being tant in her statement.
Laney kept quiet. Seeing this, Dalores continued, "You all know I''m right. If it weren''t for the baby,
Miss Laney wouldn''t be here trying on the dress. I''m afraid it will be next to impossible for her to
even marry into the Harding family."
