Chapter 321: Have a successful launch wife...

Following Becky’s voice, Jessica laughed, the sound light and full of energy as she stepped aside, ushering her into the bedroom and gesturing dramatically toward the gown, shoes, and necklace. "They are all ready," she chuckled.

"I guess the spotlight’s on you tonight," Becky said as she slowly lifted the dress. She gasped. "Wait... Is this a Lady Evelina original?"

Jessica nodded, smiling. "Apparently, someone went above and beyond."

"He really went above board. I’m jealous." Becky snickered.

"You don’t have to be jealous, I guess Alex isn’t short of it."

"I see you’re quite in the mood... Haven’t seen a CEO attending her own banquet so late," Becky teased.

Jessica shook her head lightly. "You don’t have to sweat it. Today I’m just one of the guests—a special guest of honour."

"Well, then, our special guest," Becky said, clapping her hands together, "let’s make sure you look every bit the queen you already are and make sure not to disappoint Lady Evelina in flaunting this dress."

With the time already ticking, Jessica and Becky moved quickly. Not being a fan of heavy makeup, Jessica had her look kept light and simple, exactly the way she liked it.

Once through with the makeup, Jessica slipped into the gown and Becky helped with the zipper. Looking at Jessica’s baby bump subtly concealed by the pleated flare cascading from her left shoulder down to the right side, Becky nodded in satisfaction.

Becky stepped back to take a full look. When satisfied, she took Jessica by the arm and guided her toward the mirror to have a good look at herself.

Do you think I’m lacking in any aspect?" Becky asked, a warm smile gleaming on her lips.

""Hmm, don’t really think so. You’re still the one and only Miss... per-fec-t," Jessica replied.

"Of course. Then for my reward, just make me proud and get me new contracts. Can you do that?"
