Chapter 209 The Evening Gown


    Matthew rolled his eyes at her and said, “There’s no need for that ”


    Holding the set of clothes, he then returned to his bedroom


    Esme stood at the door and watched him stride to the guest room. He then headed back into his room.


    When Matthew came out of the room, he had put on the ck suit with a white shirt and the knitted


    beige sweater from Elizabeth.


    Walking up to him, Esme stated, “Mr. Hilton, the Wade family has arrived.


    If we head over now, people will surely criticize us for having no manners,


    Those were the words Esme dared not say aloud and kept to himself.


    Matthew did not respond and headed downstairs right away.

    It was already half-past one in the afternoon when they arrived at Voyage Hotel


    After leaving the house, Matthew had picked a restaurant of his liking to have a meal at, as he was


    unsure whether he would have an appetite in the afternoon.


    A group of people followed him and dared not say much. It was only after Matthew finished eating and


    drinking to his heart’s content that they headed to Voyage Hotel


    When he stepped into the banquet hall, many eyes were on him, including those of the housekeepers


    from the Wade family and the waiters at the hotel. His charming features and cold demeanor had


    caught their attention.


    A few housekeepers from the Wade family whispered, “Mr. Hilton is so handsome!”


    “You’re right! Ms. Elizabeth is very lucky.”


    Tiana, who sat in the lounge, panicked when Matthew had not arrived after a long time and constantly


    asked someone to


    look for him.


    Just then, Tiana’s housekeeper, Sarah, dashed back to the lounge


    Ms. Tiana, Mr. Hilton is here. He looks so handsome!” Sarah eximed while covering her mouth with


    her hands


    exaggeratedly.


    Shooting her a cold re, Tiana snapped back at her, “Stop fangirling over him. He’s mine.”


    Nodding vigorously, Sarah replied, “Yes, yes. He’s yours, Ms. Tiana.”


    Tiana rose to her feet and wanted to look for Matthew as she thought she should be by his side during


    such an asion.


    She was wearing a bright red evening gown, giving off the vibe of thedy of the house.


    Lifting her gown, she stood up when Celine called out, “Tia, where are you going?”


    Apparently, Tiana was not supposed to leave now, as the bride should only show upst to surprise


    everyone.


    Pouting her lips, Tiana said, “Mom, I want to go and see Matthew. Since he did not try on the suit that


    day, I’m afraid it might not fit him.”


    I have trimmed many parts of the suit that needed modification anyway


    Celineughed and said. “Tia, can’t you tell with that body proportion of his? He is like a model who


    can pull off anything he wears.”


    Tiana pondered for a moment and agreed.


    ncing at her body, she noticed she had gained some weighttely, as she couldn’t control her


    craving for food, despite trying hard to lose weight.


    Fortunately, she could still fit into the evening gown. Otherwise, she would genuinely regret what she


    did.


    In the afternoon, Dominic had someone send the evening gown to Elizabeth’s ce. When the three


    children saw the box in her hands, Abby asked, “Lizzy, what is that?”


    Shaking her head, Elizabeth replied, “I don’t know either. It’s from Dominic.”


    Abby’s eyes sparkled as she eximed. “It must be good stuff. He probably bought me a Barbie doll!”


    Having figured out what was in the box. Antony and Arthur raised their bows and smiled. Mommy is so


    dumb. Of course, it’s matching clothes since she promised to be his femalepanion.


    After returning to the living room, Abby urged, “Lizzy, hurry up and open it.”


    shing her a smile, Elizabeth said, “All right! Don’t be so excited.”

    At that moment, she received a phone call from Dominic, and so she answered the call first.


    “Lizzy, does the evening gown fit? Remember to do your makeup.”


    Dominic nned to show everyone that night that Elizabeth was his woman.


    At the thought of announcing the news during Matthew’s engagement party, he thought things were


    getting more interesting


    Although the two most influential families in Mistwood seemed to get along well with each other in the


    eyes of others, they werepeling with each other secretly. This time, the marriage of convenience of


    the Hilton family caused an uproar
