Chapter 1023

Rebecca looked uneasy as she said, “Hailey, I was just about to head home. I don’t have any money for a taxi, so I was going to grab a shared bike.”
She glanced around and continued, “But there aren’t any nearby, so I was about to find one.”
Hailey said, “Rebecca, don’t bother looking for a shared bike. Where do you want to go? I can give you a ride.”
Rebecca’s eyes lit up, but she declined her offer. “I don’t know… wouldn’t that be inconvenient for you?”
Hailey shook her head and said, “No, it’s fine. Just get in.”
Hailey then opened the back door for her.
Rebecca didn’t refuse this time. She smiled brightly at Jonah and said, “Mr. Pilsner, thank you very much.”
Then, she slid into the back seat.
While looking at Hailey, Jonah said, “Hailey, you should get in too.”
With that, Hailey got into the passenger seat.
Jonah slid into the driver’s seat, pressed the accelerator, and the luxury car glided smoothly onto the road.
As Jonah was driving, Hailey turned around and asked, “Rebecca, where do you live?”
Rebecca replied, “My dad’s not home right now, and I don’t have the key, so I can’t get in. If you two have somewhere urgent to go, I can tag along.”
Hailey and Jonah were heading to try on some wedding dresses.
Hailey said, “Rebecca, since you can’t get home, why don’t you come with us? We’re going to a bridal shop to try on some wedding dresses.”
Rebecca’s eyes sparkled with envy as she said, “Wow, you’re trying on wedding dresses? Wouldn’t it be inconvenient for you two? Mr. Pilsner, is it okay if I’m a third wheel?”
Then, she shot a playful look at Jonah in the driver’s seat.
Jonah didn’t show any reaction to her.
He didn’t look at Rebecca. Instead, he indifferently said, “It’s fine.”
Hailey chuckled and said, “Rebecca, see? It’s fine. Let’s go together.” Rebecca nodded. “Alright.”
Half an hour later, the luxury car pulled up in front of the bridal shop.
The three of them stepped inside together.
The shop manager, Kylie McKellen, greeted them warmly. “Mr. Pilsner, welcome.” Jonah asked, “Have the dresses arrived?”
Kylie said, “The dresses have arrived. Mr. Pilsner, Mrs. Pilsner, right this way.”
Jonah, Hailey, and Rebecca followed her inside.
Kylie reached out and pushed aside the curtain, revealing a wedding gown.

“Mrs. Pilsner, this is the custom gown.Mr. Pilsner ordered. It has 9.999 diamonds, which symbolize your everlasting love.”
Hailey looked at Jonah and asked, “9,999 diamonds? Everlasting love?”
With a gentle smile, Jonah said, “I want to be with you forever.”
Kylie chuckled. “Wow, you two are just a lovely couple.”
Rebecca’s eyes lit up as she looked at the gown. She couldn’t help feeling envious.
Hailey’s happiness was something she secretly wished for herself.
Kylie said, “Mrs. Pilsner, shall we get started with the fitting?”
Hailey looked at Jonah with a gentle
smile and said “Wait for me
out in a minute.
Jonah gently ruffled her head and said, “Sure.”
Then, Hailey followed Kylieinto the fitting room.
As Jonah sat on the couch, he casually took a business magazine and started to read it.
Rebecca watched him for a moment before slowly stepping forward.
“Hi, Mr. Pilsner.”
Jonah didn’t react to Rebecca’s attempt to start a conversation.
He sat on the deep red couch, reading his magazine.
It was evident that he was ignoring Rebecca.
