Chapter 365: The Wedding Dress Designer
Hayley’s POV:
The host quickly announced, “It seems our bride has something to say.”
Blaire grabbed the microphone and, looking over the crowd, turned her gaze toward me. “I’d like to invite the designer of my wedding dress to come up here.”
The crowd erupted into applause. I overheard someone say, “Wow, I’ve been dying to know who could design such a gorgeous dress.”
I hesitated for a moment, but with Blaire’s encouraging smile, I walked up to the stage under the watchful eyes of the crowd. As soon as I appeared, the excitement in the room grew even louder.
“What? She designed that wedding dress?”
“How is that possible? Isn’t she Benjamin’s fiancée? She’s just an Omega; how could she have such talent for design?”
“This dress is stunning! The designer must be incredible!”
I stood calmly, listening to their shocked whispers. When I stood next to Blaire, she handed me the bouquet she had been holding.
“Ms. Carson, this bouquet is for you. I hope one day you’ll be able to marry your destined mate, too.”
“Thank you!” I replied, accepting the bouquet, and the applause grew louder.
“I’m truly grateful to Ms. Carson. She gave me the wedding dress of my dreams, and my wedding has been perfect,” Blaire said, smiling. “Ms. Carson’s talent is exceptional. Anyone here in need of a wedding dress can go directly to Ms. Carson!”
With that, several girls in the audience began to look at me more kindly. After all, the dress was beyond beautiful. What girl wouldn’t want a wedding dress that was uniquely hers?
“Thank you all for your support! If anyone’s interested in a custom order, feel free to contact Tanner’s studio. We excel at what we do,” I said, without hesitation, promoting Tanner’s business.
Now everyone knew where to go for custom wedding dresses. As I left the stage, I immediately received several orders for custom dresses and wedding gowns. The orders came in so quickly that I could barely process them. Benjamin quickly passed along Tanner’s contact information to everyone.
By the end of the wedding, my name had spread through the most exclusive social circles. At the same time, I was relieved that no one knew the name of the Shadow Pack’s alpha. If they did, my identity would have been exposed.
Now, everyone knew the fiancée of the Midnight Pack’s alpha was a wedding dress designer. I designed the gown that Blair wore at her wedding. So whenever people talked about that beautiful dress, they would inevitably think of me.
I guess it’s not such a negative thing after all.
It was Monday again. Just as I was about to head out early in the morning, Tanner stopped me.
“Hayley, the studio’s still not fully set up, but we’ve already received several custom orders that specifically want you to design the dresses. When do you think you have time to help with that?”
The question took me aback. After thinking for a moment, I replied, “I’ve got exams in a little over a month, so I don’t have much time. How about you talk to them and see if they can wait? If they can, I’ll take it on after my exams are finished.” Tanner nodded enthusiastically. “Okay, focus on your exams! I’ve got everything covered here.”
I nodded in agreement. At that moment, Benjamin pulled up in his car. I waved at him after he dropped me off at school. “I’m off to class. You don’t need to pick me up this afternoon. I’ll head home on my own.”
Just as Benjamin drove off, a figure suddenly appeared and called out to me, “Alpha!”
