Chapter 894 - Fashion show at Water Tower Place (1) (2/2)
”What are you doing?”, Jasper narrowed his eyes at Hailey and pushed her hand away in one swift movement.
She stared at him in shock, obviously not expecting sudden hostility. It took her few seconds to snap out of it and smile sweetly while rubbing her aching wrist. ”I'm sorry, but this is EY, correct? I never had a chance to see one up close, so I was curious.”
Jasper was pretty sure that she lied. Or maybe half lied. He didn't know that the clothes will be recognized as EY like this. There are no visible tags or logos. It seems that Ellie is working for a good company, and the fact that she picked this for him to wear, made him happy. But he needs to stay present with this pesky woman by his side, otherwise who knows what will happen.
”If you want to look, that is done with the eyes. Don't touch me or the clothes.”, Jasper said bluntly and turned to the stage while thinking that seven o'clock can't come soon enough.
Hailey pursed her lips and straightened her back. She is not happy that Jasper brushed her off like that. And he didn't even introduce himself! How rude. But she knows who he is: Jasper Kiani.
What Hailey didn't know is that he is attending these events. Such luck! Also… he is wearing EY!
Backstage, Ellie is watching her assistants and stylists working on the models while giving instructions. It's almost showtime! Everything looks perfect!
”Ellie, you should get ready if you want to watch this from the audience.”, one of her assistants reminded her. ”We got this covered.”
Ellie has difficulty letting go. She is a control freak and has a need to do things herself, or at least to see things done in person. She checked her phone and saw that more than fifteen minutes ago Jasper texted her that he is in the audience. Ah, she was so busy that she missed it! And she should get ready!
”It seems your date is here?”, Paulette teased.
”What?” Ellie glanced around frantically and frowned when she didn't spot Jasper. ”Why did you say that?”
Paulette stifled a laugh. ”I never saw you this nervous.”
Ellie narrowed her eyes at her assistant. ”Instead of teasing me, go and check if he is there while I get ready. I hope he didn't leave because he is bored…”
”How do I know which one is he?”
”Our seats in the front row. You will know who he is.”, Ellie winked.
Paulette was puzzled, but she walked out without further questions.
When Paulette returned, she found Ellie hold two flowy dresses.
”Your choices?”
”Yeah. I can't decide… what do you think?”, Ellie asked.
”I think that your competition is wearing something… tighter.”, Paulette handed her phone to Ellie.
