Chapter 895 - Fashion show at Water Tower Place (2) (2/2)

”Miss…”, one of the guards gestured toward the exit and when Hailey frowned in response, two of them grabbed Hailey under her armpits and practically carried her outside. Only when Hailey was close to the exit she started screaming how that is injustice while guards made sure she ends up outside as soon as possible.

”Sorry I'm late.”, Ellie exhaled and sat next to Jasper.

”Are you OK?”, Ellie asked when she noticed that Jasper is only staring at her.

Jasper blinked. ”Yeah. I didn't expect you here.”

She tilted her head and smiled. ”I see. You don't expect me, and that is why a random woman can take my seat?”

”I didn't know this is your seat.”, Jasper said honestly. If he knew, he would tell that woman to move.

”I know. Sorry, I should have told you. I thought that I can surprise you by showing up here. I didn't take your attractiveness factor into consideration.”

”I'm not sure if she was into me or the clothes.”

”Considering how handsome you are, if she noticed the clothes, I will take that as a big compliment.”

”You look amazing.”, Jasper said under his breath, finally saying what is on his mind since Ellie arrived.

Ellie smiled.

MC excitedly spoke: ”And now, what everyone was waiting for… grand finale for tonight… EY!”

The lights dimmed and models started strutting wearing Ellie's designs iluminated by spotlights which followed them.

Jasper was spellbound at the sight of her lit up expression. He can tell that she is proud of her work.

The time passed quickly. It always does when he is next to Ellie.

MC returned to the stage and introduced designers: ”Please, put your hands together for super-talented designers behind EY name. EY itself is still a mystery. He or she prefers privacy, so we don't get to meet the mastermind behind all this ethereal apparel, but as usually, we get to celebrate designers who are helping EY rule our fashion industry for almost a decade!”

All EY models walked out and lined up the runway making space for Paulette and two more Ellie's assistants who walked with big smiles on their faces while waving to the enthusiastic audience.

Everyone stood up, and so did Ellie and Jasper, joining others in clapping.

Paulette glanced at Ellie and gave her a quick thumbs up between waves.

Ellie happily clapped and didn't notice that Jasper is giving her a cryptic look.

In Jasper's mind, pieces started coming into place after the words of the MC.

EY who prefers privacy… instead of mysterious EY, other designers always go on stage (but not Ellie)… and Ellie likes to keep a low profile, unless she wears EY designs… and he can see her pride about every outfit that walked on that stage… and is it a coincidence that EY are initials of her name?

Suddenly, Jasper though how everything fits: Ellie is behind EY.

But… why didn't she tell him? Did he spend all this time cursing a non-existent boss? Is she having fun, while he is kept in the dark?
