Chloe came out of a fitting room in the boutique. Dressed in a white and puffy wedding gown, she appeared like a beautiful princess.

"Bryan, how do I look?" Chloe smiled cheerfully. However, Bryan simply stared blankly at her.

For some reason, seeing Chloe dressed in all white reminded him of Anna's who was also dressed similarly during Grandmother Dawson's birthday party.

It was the same kind of white, but although Chloe still looked amazing in her gown, her beauty was nothing compared to that of Anna's.

Only vibrant and sexy colors suited Chloe-they made her look especially seductive and alluring.

A color of purity and innocence did not suit her at all.

Even so, Bryan still smiled and complimented," Gorgeous. You dazed me for a while."

Chloe flashed him a shy smile. "Bryan, you're always so good at making me happy."

As she chuckled, the smile on her face suddenly vanished. She stared at something behind Bryan with a dumbfounded expression. Her face gradually turned paler.

Bryan follows Chloe's gaze and the moment he turned his head, his entire body froze.

After a few seconds, Bryan finally found his voice again.

"U-uncle!"

"What brings you here!" Then, he turned to Anna, who was right beside Liam. "What... What is she doing here?"

Liam gazed at Anna, then turned to look at the tense expression on Bryan's face. "Why can't she be here?"

The chilling tone of Liam's voice and the menace in his aura made Bryan feel as if he could not breathe for a second.

"No, Uncle... That's not what I mean..."

Bryan pointed his fingers shakingly at Anna. He yearned to ask why Liam was in a bridal boutique with Anna, but when he saw the dark and terrifying expression on Liam's face, he had no choice but to forcibly swallow his words.

Forget about Liam bringing Anna to a bridal boutiqueeven if Liam was to grab Anna and kiss her, Bryan would not have the guts to say anything.

Anna was no longer his fiancee-even if she was, Bryan would still bow down and adhere to Liam's every will.

Liam went to a sofa nearby and sat down on it. He gazed at Chloe in her pure-white wedding gown. He crossed his arms and scrunched his brows. "It's ugly."

Liam's simple words rendered everyone speechless.

"It's hideous!"

They were all completely speechless.

Liam pointed at Anna. "You will surely look better in that dress."

Chloe's skin turned red from rage. She forced a smile onto her face. "Uncle, do you mean to tell me... I should take it off and let Anna try it on?" Even her voice was trembling.

Liam nodded gently. His high and mighty attitude made him seem insufferably arrogant.

The employees exchanged glances with each other, then hurriedly invited Chloe into the fitting room to remove the gown and let Anna try it on instead. Bryan and Chloe's faces were ashen. Even so, they had no courage to express their anger.

Anna was a germaphobe. To her, putting on a dress that Chloe had worn felt equivalent to touching a patient with a skin infection. 1

Anna stood stubbornly at her spot, unwilling to enter the fitting room. Liam noticed her hesitance.

He nodded again. "On second thought, forget about it. Someone else has worn it. It's dirty now."

Hearing that, even the employees felt embarrassed for Chloe. They all looked Chloe up and down as she stood with a stiff expression on her face.

"U-uncle... why would it be dirty?" Chloe forced out a chuckle that sounded worse than a cry.

Liam glanced at Chloe with distant eyes. However, the moment he turned to Anna, his expression turned warm and tender. He even exhibited a look of pampering and affection that became the envy of many. "Bring her every dress in the store that has not been tried on."

Hearing the man's haughty and domineering tone excited the employees. They hurriedly mobilized the entire team to bring all the dresses over.

"Mr. Ackman, most of our customers prefer to get their dresses tailor-made, so almost all the dresses on display right now have never been worn by anyone." The manager had overheard the commotion and came fawning over Liam.

Liam replied in agreement, "Nowadays, anyone with some status will choose to hire designers to personalize a dress for them. It's very rare for anyone t

o get a wedding dress on display anymore."

His words sounded like a casual comment, yet it made Bryan and Chloe burn up with rage.

He was subtly mocking them for choosing a dress on display, insinuating that they were not even up to par with those who had 'some status'!

However, in reality, every bride that came to the boutique would first try on the dresses on display, then refine them from there!

Chloe's chest puffed up with rage, yet she could not do anything but endure it.

"That's true, that's true. The dresses here are mostly for display. Very few customers would actually buy them! With Mr. Ackman and Ms. Anna's status, I'm sure you would want to hire an internationally recognized designer." The manager hurriedly bent over and went along with it.

"Mr. Ackman, I've picked out a few styles of dresses that suit Ms. Anna the most. You may take your pick from there." The manager smiled and introduced a few of the most expensive dresses in the store. Liam took a glance at the dresses. "With Ms. Anna's fine body and character, any style of dress in your store will suit her perfectly."

"Of course! Not a lot of women in the world can possess the same grace and beauty as Ms. Anna here! If this was the past, her divine beauty would surely be the face to launch a thousand ships!" The manager

was trying hard to flatter them.

Anna placed her hand to her head, flicking away a drop of cold sweat that had formed on her forehead.

The employees 'politely invited' Anna to try on the wedding gowns and dresses. Liam was satisfied with every one of them and had the employees leave them behind.

After a long struggle through 127 dresses, Anna was completely exhausted. The owner of the boutique was also flabbergasted. He scurried toward Liam and dance attendance on him.

"Oh my, Mr. Ackman. We are honored by your presence! Next time, just give us a call and we will close the store for the day and deliver all our dresses to your home. There's no need for you and Ms. Anna to trouble yourselves and come all the way to our boutique." The owner's face was all wrinkled from his smile. It was as if he felt that he might offend his honored guests if his smile was not vibrant enough. Liam looked up and took a glance at the owner. "Pack up all these wedding dresses."

"Of course! We will pack them up right away, Mr. Ackman." The owner's smile grew even wider.

The employees chatted among themselves as they packed up the dresses. "There are exactly 127 dresses. Did you know that 127 signifies a husband's love for his wife in certain cultures?" "Wow! Mr. Ackman must really love Ms. Anna!" "See that? How great is it to be rich! If you want to show your wife how much you love her, you better buy her 127 custom-made wedding gowns first!"

Chloe's face turned green with rage. The whole time while Anna was trying on the dresses, Chloe and Bryan were just standing on the sidelines, spectating like idiots.

She wanted to take Bryan and leave, but every time Anna came out of the fitting room with a new dress, Liam would ask Bryan for his opinion on how Anna looked as if they were both judges. Bryan had no choice but to put on a brave face and kept standing there. He did not dare to move a muscle.

Chloe watched as Anna continued to be the star of the show. She gritted her teeth in anger. She took a deep break, trying her best to force a smile onto her face, and spoke with a high pitch.

"Uncle, when did you and Anna start dating? You're already getting married yet we are just replaceing out about it. It shouldn't be too long ago. Bryan and Anna's marriage had only been called off not even half a month ago! Hehe..."

Hearing that, everyone's gazes shifted onto Liam.
