Today's Goal is a Safe Divorce! Chapter 36

Chapter 36

“Wow…”

When Elysia saw the wedding dress on the mannequin, she couldn't not keep her mouth shut. A constant exclamation erupted from her open mouth. It was a dress that only made admiration come out.

“This is really…”

“Do you like it?”

It was not that she'd never seen the fitting dress on, as she'd been adjusting the sizes ever since. However, the difference from when the fitting dress was a finished product was enormous.

Even when it was in a fitting dress style, she thought it wasn't bad. She was someone who thought all the wedding dresses were the same. Originally, a wedding dress was nothing more than a white dress, nothing more.

Nonetheless, the wedding dress in front of her right now seemed to ridicule Elysia's thoughts and looked more gorgeous and elegant than any other dress. It was a beautiful dress that was too beautiful to be worn only once as a wedding dress.

“Madam, this is… It really is like a work of art.”

The white fabric mixed with a slight sky blue showed a variety of colors depending on how you look at it.

As Catherine said that the mermaid-type dress is delicate, it was a feast of really elegant and fine lace. The shoulder of the dress, woven with tight lace, was a see-through type that showed a little flesh, and it was a style that fluttered as it spread downwards.

Most of all, gorgeous lace and embroidered pearls came together to show off elegance. It was truly a dress like a masterpiece. It was so full of beauty that she couldn't even dare to speak. It was blindingly beautiful.

“Thank you for the compliment. Because Your Grace's body was so slender, I was able to design it to my heart's content. This is the first time I've ever designed a design the way I wanted while working in the salon.”

“Madam is amazing.”

“Then, shall we try it on?”

The process of putting on the dress was also very careful. It wasn't easy to even wear a dress that had no choice but to be reverent.

“These are the perfect size for you.”

“It must be really hard to keep fixing it.”

Despite the design that sticks to her body, it didn't look bad at all that she was skinny.

It was probably because of the design that the bottom part was fluttering in abundance. In addition, her shoulders and forearms are wrapped in see-through lace, and it is also because they cover her thinness to some extent.

“Are you going to show it to your younger sister?”

“What?”

“Actually, Her Grace didn't summon your younger sister in a good way, right?”

It seemed that she could not fool Catherine, who was also a seasoned trader. Besides, she had quite openly appealed that she didn't get along with Rowena, so it was understandable.

“The reason I did the fitting was to measure the size, and since Your Grace also checked the dress, I don't think you need to show it.”

Even in the Caesar Empire, as in her previous life, there was a custom that the groom should see the bride in the wedding dress first. It was also for this reason that a veil was wrapped around her bride.

“If I've been too presumptuous, please forgive me.”

“No, Madam is right. I didn't call Rowena in a good sense.”

“What should we do?”

As Catherine said, she didn't want Rowena to be the first to see her wedding dress. If the subject was Edward, she didn't know, though at least, not Rowena.

“I won't go out. Can you help me get dressed again?”

Anyway, the wedding dress wasn't meant to spite Rowena, so it was fine. Also, she didn't want to show Rowena that she had such a beautiful dress.

“All right.”

As she changed her dress, a loud noise came from outside. She thought it was the sound of a hanger turning. However, it wasn't. It was the sound of people talking.

“Why am I not supposed to wear it?”

“That…”

“Rowena…?”

The place where she pulled back the curtains was truly a mess. In the end, Rowena could not stand her greed and looked into the dress.

“Your Grace!”

“Sis, sister?”

Just seeing Rowena arguing with the staff over the gold dress, it was immediately clear what was going on.

“What is this now?”

“That… I want to try on the dress…”

“Isn't it supposed to fit my size?”

There was a big difference in body types between Elysia and Rowena. If Rowena wore her dress, the dress might be torn.

“I was going to try a little, just a little bit.”

“Is it…?”

“Sister said you would give me one of the dresses.”

Could she possibly have a dress? Elysia couldn't hold back her laughter at the sight of Rowena acting so docilely.

“Don't get me wrong, Rowena. None of these dresses are yours.”

“But, obviously… You said you would give me a dress, too.”

Elysia glared at Rowena coldly as she protested as if it was unfair. It was funny that she was trying so hard to hide her temper.

“I never said anything like that?”

She never exactly said she would give Rowena a dress. It was the maid and her fault for interpreting and getting excited.

“Are you lying to me?”

“Rowena, why would I lie to you?”

“Then, why are you like this…!”

Even Rowena seemed embarrassed and humiliated by the current situation. A smile almost burst out on Elysia's face, seeing her face that was about to burst.

“I have nothing to gain by lying to you. Isn't it?”

“That….”

Even if it was in the past, Elysia had nothing to gain by telling Rowena lies now. It was something anyone could see.

“But, I definitely heard it! Sister will give me a dress!”

“Really?”

“So, I just picked what I wanted.”

Rowena really shouldn't have made a fuss that she would try on the dress at will, even if Elysia promised her a dress.

How foolish a young lady that had made a debut in the social world…? She sighed.

Madame Catherine was the owner of the empire's highest salon, serving several nobles. It was not strange to think that everything that happened here would spread to the noble society. Because of that, they had to avoid making a fuss in the presence of not only Catherine but the salon staff as well.

“Rowena, who said I was giving you a dress?”

“What…?”

“Bring that maid. If she tells lies to her master, then she must be punished.”

“Huh… I…”

If Rowena hadn't been obsessed with the dress, she wouldn't have acted so carelessly. Elysia's smile grew even stronger as she lost her words. It was only now that the situation began to become clear.

As expected, Catherine's dress was Rowena's favorite. She even threw away her pride as a nobleman.

“Who said that?”

“Sister, I'm fine.”

Unlike when she was angry, Rowena immediately lowered her tail, which made Elysia laugh. She didn't know why Rowena was doing that. All members of County Caitlyn's family belonged to the Countess. No matter how much she was loved by the Countess, Rowena could not help it.

“If we just move on from here, the prestige of County Caitlyn will be diminished.”

Elysia deliberately aimed at this situation. It was Rowena who was already jealous of her. So, as she saw her favorite Catherine's dress, her eyes couldn't stop rolling.

“I must have heard it wrong.”

“There's no way, so I'll have to call the maid and ask.”

“Sister, sister Elysia!”

It was funny to see Rowena hastily calling her sister while she hated calling Elysia sister so much.

On the one hand, Rowena's mouth was bitter. She wasn't afraid of Elysia. It was Angelina that Rowena feared. She was afraid that the Countess might know.

“Didn't you just say you clearly heard it?”

It wasn't long before she left the County soon. She had to soften the Countess' prestige. If Edward were left alone, she did not know when he would fall under the Countess' magic. She would rather finish everything before the Countess noticed that she was just a phantom Grand Duchess.

“…I, I think I heard it wrong.”

“It must have been the maid in my room, wasn't it?”

“Sister!”

As she raised her hand to bring the maid, Rowena grabbed her arm and dangled. Elysia had never seen Rowena look so desperate before. It was strange that she trembled so much because of the Countess.

Of course, Rowena was afraid of the Countess, but she basically trusted Angelina. However, the Rowena in front of her now was different.

“Shall I call mother?”

Elysia didn't mind calling the Countess.

Although she was leaning on Damon's powers, as her wedding was nearing, no one in the County could touch her. She wondered what the Countess would do when she saw this situation.

Would the Countess take her side? Or, would she take Rowena's side…?

“Call the Countess.”

At those words, Rowena's face turned pale blue, but Elysia didn't care. If it had been before, she might not have acted so harshly. Nonetheless, since she knew everything, she didn't feel sorry for Rowena anymore.

Elysia glanced at Rowena, whose legs were trembling nervously, with cold eyes.

She was in front of Catherine, so she couldn't even get angry, and she seemed to keep her cool. She felt sorry for Catherine for being openly involved in such chores, but now, she couldn't do anything.

The maid, who disappeared at Elysia's order, returned immediately with the Countess.
