Love Is a Sweet Addiction

Esther had almost forgotten that she was James’s aunt. If James had any good news, she would have to take the lead. Not to mention the betrothal gifts, she would even have to personally welcome the bride.

It was really pathetic to help prepare a wedding ceremony for her ex-boyfriend and her sister who bullied her before!

Even Gill said, “Esther, James’s wedding ceremony is an important event. You should help Amanda prepare well for it, understand?”

“Mom, I will.” Esther squeezed out a proper smile with difficulty.

Just when Esther thought that the topic was finally about to end, James suddenly said, “By the way, Auntie, Anne said that you are her sister as well as a professional wedding dress designer. You know her figure better than anyone else, so she hopes that you can design the wedding dress for her.”

Hearing his words, Esther couldn’t help but become angry again.

Anne obviously did it on purpose!

Esther was asked to help arrange her wedding, now she was even asked to design the dress for her, were they trying to humiliate her?

“But I just took the order of the big star, Lila. I may have no time to do it.” Esther tried to reject it.

Sarah laughed mockingly, “Auntie, I didn’t hear wrong, right? The big star, Lila, actually wears the dress you designed? She has an appointed designer, and a lot of brand sponsors are willing to sponsor her for free.”

What she said was true. Esther also had the same reaction when she first heard it.

Esther felt that she couldn’t explain it clearly at all, so she just said frankly, “Currently, we’re still in the trial phase. We don’t know if it will succeed or not, so we’ll be quite busy this week.”

She glanced at the others and smiled, “I will talk with my sister. If she really wants me to design the wedding dress, I will do it.”

“That’s Okay.” James stared at her and answered lightly.

It was not easy to free herself from the dining table. Esther sighed and quickly walked upstairs.

The feeling of being surrounded and attacked was not good at all. The feeling of being retaliated would probably be even worse. She could even imagine how badly she would be tortured by this couple at the wedding!

Forget it. It’s just a wedding. It would be over soon.

After taking a shower when she returned to the bedroom, Esther laid down on the bed and started drawing her manuscript.

Lila’s awards ceremony.

As she flipped through Lila’s previous style of dressing with her phone, Esther sketched out the style of the clothes in her mind.

Serena was right. In the past, Lila had always preferred sexy and charming dresses. Therefore, she was dubbed as the first sexy goddess in the entertainment circle. At the same time, she was also mocked by a group of netizens that she always sought attention of the public in a despicable way by showing off her sexy body.

Esther carefully studied Lila whose figure was gorgeous and whose skin was fair. She should be a beauty who looked good no matter what she wore. She had no obvious defect in her appearance. If she was willing to change her style and appear at the awards ceremony nobly and elegantly, it should bring a stunning visual effect to the audience.

Of course, this was just Esther’s thoughts. As for what Lila was thinking, Esther had no idea. Perhaps Lila didn’t care about other people’s comments at all and didn’t want to change herself?

To provide Lila with more choices, she thought of two dresses in her mind.

One was a sexy, low-cut V-neck dress, and the other was a noble and elegant strapless dress in retro style.

To the idea in her mind, Esther quickly picked up a pen and drew the style bit by bit on the white paper.

The retro style had always been her favorite, so it was much easier for her to draw a manuscript.

However, after the manuscript was done, no matter how Esther looked at it, it was not what she wanted. After a small change, it was still not ideal, but she had already been sleepy.

Esther lowered her head and fell asleep on the bed.

When Terence came in, he saw her sleeping soundly on the bed with a pen in one hand, and dozens of manuscripts scattered nearby.

His gaze swept over Esther’s little face and fixed on the waste drafts by her side. He leaned over and picked up one of them.

Probably because she was not used to people’s approaching, Esther, who had already been asleep, opened her eyes faintly. Everything in front of her made her somewhat confused.

In the large bedroom, among the white papers on the ground, Terence stood upright under the soft light.

It was Terence, her husband, who had been so busy lately that she didn’t see him!

“Why are you here?” Esther rubbed her eyes with her hands, propped up her aching body due to the wrong posture, and looked at him.

The piece of paper between her fingers fell to the ground. Terence turned to look at her, “I came to see you.”

“See me? For what?” Esther asked in puzzlement.

Terence hadn’t thought of coming over to see her for more than a month. Why did he come over so kindly tonight? Was it out of conscience or… a physiological need?

Thinking of the latter reason, Esther unconsciously blushed.

However, she soon realized that she was thinking too much because Terence’s words were really annoying, “James is about to get married. Aren’t you sad?”

What? Why was she sad? It’s fine if others thought so about her, but why did even Terence ask about it?

This stubborn man seemed to have always felt that Esther had not forgotten James, no matter how she explained it, Terence insisted that it was because of James that she helped Terence take down the land of the Fairy Mountain.

“What shall I be sad about?” Esther was speechless and bent down to pick up the waste drafts all over the ground.

“If you are not sad, why were you so stunned that you could not even speak when you heard the news?” Terence grabbed her arm and pulled her up from the ground. Esther didn’t expect it and crashed into his arms.

Pain…

She rubbed the tip of her nose with her hand and glared at him angrily, “Terence, why are you so rude?”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“You think I’m not gentle enough?” Terence did not let go of her because of her protest. Instead, he tightened his grip on her arm, “So why did you still marry me?”

Feeling that her arm was about to be broken by him, Esther was in so much pain that she frowned. She did not understand why Terence was so angry. It was so weird that when he came up he was so rude to her and he even spoke so strangely.

“Why did he leave her here for more than a month and ignore her? Why did he become mad at her the moment you arrived?” To express her dissatisfaction, she deliberately said in a bad tone, “If I had known earlier, I definitely wouldn’t have married you!”

“What did you say?” Terence’s expression sank.

“What’s wrong? Did I say anything wrong?” Esther glanced at him, “Terence, look at yourself now. You are simply making trouble without a reason!”
