Chapter 575

When Tiffany looked up, her gaze inadvertently collided with Eddie’s.

He didn’t shy away but instead called out enthusiastically, “Hi, Tiffany!”

“Hello.” Tiffany offered a polite smile, barely lifting the corners of her lips before Richard stepped in front of her, seamlessly blocking Eddie’s view.

‘What an overbearing, possessive, jealous man he is!‘ Tiffany thought.

Tiffany found it a little amusing but chose not to comment. Instead, she turned and headed back to the changing room to switch out of the wedding dress she was trying on.

Once she was out of sight, Eddie lounged back in a chair, exuding an air of lazy confidence. He glanced at Richard with a knowing grin. “The measurements you provided were spot on.”

Everyone he designed for had to be measured by him personally.

Only then could he truly create a custom dress that would perfectly suit the other party’s needs.

This was his occupational habit.

Of course, he was no hooligan. He measured with a ruler, always behaving like a gentleman–no inappropriate intentions whatsoever.

Even so, Richard had vetoed Eddie’s offer to take Tiffany’s measurements without a second thought.

From that alone, Eddie could see just how much Richard doted on and protected Tiffany. It was clear Richard didn’t even want anyone else to look at her, let alone touch her.

Eddie couldn’t help but muse, If Richard could, Richard would probably tuck her into his pocket and keep her hidden away from the world.

Richard raised an eyebrow and replied unabashedly, “Of course

After all, no one else would know his wife’s measurements better than him.

“You haven’t changed a bit,” Eddie said with a laugh, playfully punching Richard’s shoulder. Then, as if remembering something important, he added, “And don’t forget to settle the bill.”

His designs didn’t come cheap!

Richard smiled.

Their banter didn’t touch on business or the latest happenings but carried a rare warmth and ease between old friends.

As Tiffany emerged from the changing room, she caught snippets of their conversation, She raised her eyebrows slightly, surprised by the casual camaraderie between the two men.
