Chapter 5 - Chapet 5

The room erupted in applause and congratulations, with the staff expressing their joy for the newlyweds except for Sally who seemed very upset at that moment which was soon noticed by Elena. But Elena decided to ignore. As the applause died down, Butler Andrew came forward and informed Elliot " Young master, you requested, Miss Valentine is here with her staffs to show Lady Elena the outfits for purchase." Elliot then asked the butler to escort Elena to miss Valentina and he will join them later. Elliot then looked at Elena and said " Go and check the dresses and choose as many as you like, I will pay for them.

Elena smiled and asked shyly " Why don't you help to choose the dresses to buy?" Elliot was a surprised by her request but that really pleased him.

Elliot chuckled and replied " I will surely join you within few minutes, I will just quickly make a business call at my office and I will be there soon."

As Elliot finished his sentence, he grabbed his phone. He knew that this business call was important and couldn't be delayed. With a sense of determination, he dialed the number and waited for the other end to pick up.

As he spoke into the phone, his voice exuded confidence and professionalism. Elena then followed butler Andrew to the guest room where miss Valentina was waiting for her to show up so that she can choose the dresses she wants to buy. After she entered the guest room she saw a middle aged woman sitting in on the sofa taking sips of tea from the cup and 3 other young women were sitting next to her.

The woman had a regal air about her, with her perfectly coiffed hair and impeccable fashion sense. Elena immediately recognized her as a renowned fashion designer.

Miss Valentina greeted her with a warm smile and said " Hello, you must be the wife of Mr. Elliot Wessex, I have waiting for you and so that you know the Wessex family always buy dresses from me and now you will too. Elena was taken aback by Miss Valentina's confident statement." She had heard of the Wessex family's impeccable taste in fashion, but she had never expected to be personally welcomed by the renowned designer. As she looked around the elegant boutique, Elena couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation.

She knew that from this moment on, her wardrobe would be transformed by Miss Valentina's exquisite creations. Elena replied with small smile " Thanks very much for coming here, I read a lot about you on fashion magazine and on social media. I have always wanted to try out your designed dresses and finally I got the through my husband, So can I please see the dresses you brought? " as Elena asked while looking at many luxurious dresses hanging on hangers in 2 armoires, miss Valentina clapped her hands together and said excitedly " Oh, I'm very happy to hear that Miss Elena and sure I will show the dresses and you try putting them on if you want." She then looked at her staffs as if they got the signals of what they have to do.

The 3 staffs stood up and she watched as they carefully selected a few dresses from the armoires and laid them out on a nearby table. Each dress seemed more exquisite than the last, with intricate details and luxurious fabrics.

Elena's eyes sparkled with excitement as she imagined herself wearing these stunning creations. Miss Valentina gestured for Elena to come closer and examine the dresses.

With a mix of curiosity and eagerness, Elena reached out to touch the delicate fabrics, marveling at their softness. She couldn't wait to try them on and see how they would enhance her figure. Elena then picked up a pale red gown .The intricate lace detailing and the flowing silhouette made her heart flutter with excitement. She envisioned herself gliding across the dance floor, captivating everyone with her elegance and grace. The thought of the gown hugging her curves perfectly filled her with anticipation, eager to see herself transformed into a vision of beauty.

Miss Valentina commented on her taste " Miss Elena you have a great taste, this is one of my best design and this will look fabulous on you, you should take it." Elena smiled and looked at more dresses and picked some that she liked but then it suddenly hit her how much do they cost since they look so luxurious and expensive so she hesitantly asked for the price of the gowns . But miss Valentina replied with a small laugh " Dear, you must not think about the price since you are the wife of Mr. Elliot Wessex, pick as many dresses as you want, your husband will pay for them, you must not worry about the budget." After miss Valentina finished her sentence Elena turned her face when she heard a familiar masculine voice which belonged to her husband saying " Exactly my lovely wife, don't worry about the budget, you know I can afford more than you can imagine." Elena shyly smiled but she was not sure if she should buy so many expensive dresses since she does not want him to waste his money. Elliot exchanged pleasantries with miss Valentine and he looked at his newly wedded wife who seemed confused to which dresses to choose from so he went closer to her and asked " Which are the dresses did you like? Elena looked at the racks of dresses, feeling overwhelmed by the choices. She hesitated for a moment before pointing out a few that caught her eye. Elliot nodded approvingly, assuring her that she could have them all if she wanted.

As they continued browsing, Elena thought to buy just 1 of the gowns and 3 dresses since they were too expensive even though she liked more than that so she told Elliot " Umm..I think I will buy these." Elliot crossed his brows and looked at Elena giving her the look "these are not enough" so he said to miss Valentina " Please pack all of the dresses you brought, I will buy all of them." Elena opened her mouth in shock and was ready to protest Elena opened her mouth in shock and was ready to protest, but Elliot's determination was unwavering. He knew that Elena too humble to buy all of these expensive dresses and he liked that about her because he thought she was like the rest of those women who loved to waste their money on dresses and other stuffs which they don't even need and Elena who had no clothes still decided to buy a few even though she knows he can afford much more than this after all he was a billionaire, for some reason he wanted to give anything she desired.

As he watched Miss Valentina carefully pack each dress, Elliot couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as he watched Miss Valentina carefully pack each dress he called his butler Andrew to bring the cheque book from his office so that he could pay for these dresses to miss Valentine.

As Andrew returned with the checkbook, Elliot couldn't help but reflect on his relationship with Elena. He admired her humility and modesty, qualities that were rare to find in the world he was accustomed to.

He knew that Elena had never been one to indulge in extravagant purchases, always prioritizing practicality and necessity. But today, for some reason he wanted to show her that she deserved to be treated like a queen, to experience the luxury and elegance that she had never dreamed of .

As he signed the check, Elena stood there watching Elliot's generosity which made her feel something in her heart which she never felt before.
