Chapter 592
“Why do I need to outshine the maid of honor?”
“Because the maid of honor is Fenna!”
Mila was stunned for a moment. She wasn’t vain, but whenever Fenna was mentioned, she couldn’t help but feel the urge to compete with her. Even though she had confidence in Nathan, she still felt jealous.
She regained her composure and walked over to the wardrobe to pick out clothes. “Phoebe, help me pick out another outfit,” she said with renewed vigor.
At that moment, a knock came on the door.
“Come in,” Mila said as she turned her head to look.
Cole pushed open the door. He was carrying several beautifully wrapped boxes. Then, he placed the boxes one by one on the bed.
“Madam, these are the outfits General Morrison had custom-made for you. Also, there are several sets of jewelry for you.”
Mila walked over to open the boxes. Looking at the gifts that Nathan had specially prepared for her, she was delighted.
She picked them up and admired the beautiful dress in her hands. His actions made her feel cherished.
She remembered how Nathan had once sent her a set of haute couture dresses and jewelry, but the fake Sally had destroyed them.
She was heartbroken for a long time.
Cole took out another box at the bottom and walked toward Phoebe. He handed them to her and said, “This is for you.”
Phoebe was taken aback. “General Morrison prepared this for me?”
Cole’s expression turned grim. He hurriedly explained, “I… I had it custom-made for you.”
Phoebe was surprised. She was dumbfounded for a moment before slowly accepting the exquisite gift box from him. She was so surprised that her mouth hung open. “You two should go get change. I’ll wait downstairs,” Cole said gently.
Mila turned and asked, “Cole, where did Nate go?”

Cole’s expression turned grave as replied slowly, “General Morrison was called over by the President. It seems he’s been arranged to be the best man.”
“A best man?” Mila and Phoebe exclaimed in unison. Both of them were shocked.
Mila threw the haute couture dress she was holding onto the bed. She questioned angrily, “He agreed to it?”
“He did,” Cole replied as he nodded. He carefully explained to Mila, “Madam, please don’t be angry.
“General Morrison only found out about it when he went to the President’s house. He asked me to come back and bring you guys over.”
Mila took a deep breath to suppress her anger. She calmly asked, “In Norvania, can married men be a best man?”
Cole replied, “They can. Moreover, in
accordance with the customs of Norvania, your marriage is only recognized and protected by law, so you’re not considered officially married. In the eyes of outsiders, General Morrison is still single.”
Mila coldly snorted as her good mood was ruined.
She remained silent for a moment before hastily taking out her phone. She realized her phone was out of battery and was switched off.
No wonder Nathan hadn’t been able to notify her.
Wasn’t it disrespectful to her as his wife for him to agree to be a best man without asking her? Mila handed her phone to Phoebe. She was listless as she said, “Phoebe, go charge my phone.” After Phoebe took a charging cable, she asked cautiously, “Mila, are we still going to the wedding?”
Mila blurted out, “Of course we are Fenna is the maid of honor. You can tell this is her and the bride’s doing.
If I don’t go, it’ll just make their schemes a success.”
Cole hastily made his exit. “Madam, I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
“Okay. You may go now,” Mila replied.
Mila stood up and picked an elegant and graceful haute couture dress to change in the dressing room.
Half an hour later, Mila and Phoebe were elegantly dressed. Along with Zach, they went to the wedding banquet venue in Cole’s car.
