Chapter 1022: Hayden’s Engagement

When Jared stepped out of his office, the tension in his eyes had completely vanished, replaced by an uncontrollable joy.

Seeing her uncle in such high spirits, Tina couldn't help but smile as well.

Finally, no more medication.

Back at home, Jared noticed a beautifully wrapped box left outside their door. At first, he thought Marie had sent it, but upon closer inspection, it didn't seem like her style.

Tina suddenly remembered Hayden's call from earlier. Before Jared could open it, she casually remarked, "It's from Hayden."

Jared picked up the box and brought it inside without thinking much of it.

The next morning, Tina suddenly realized they were attending an engagement party that day. She opened the box from Hayden, and her expression froze.

Oh, Hayden.

He really outdid himself this time.

The dress inside was a bold traditional red gown, flamboyant to the point of absurdity. It wasn't just outdated-it was downright hideous.

Jared, already dressed in a sleek black suit that highlighted his striking good looks, noticed Tina standing there in shock. Following her gaze, he saw the dress.

It was a loud red gown with exaggerated traditional designs.

It wasn't just unattractive-it was extremely unattractive.

His brows furrowed slightly. "Hayden's doing?"

Tina didn't respond, but her expression said it all.

Who else could it be? Hayden's baffling taste was unmatched in this world.

Jared pulled out his phone. "I'll have Nathan bring over another dress." "No need."

Tina grabbed a pair of scissors and took the dress into the bedroom.

When she emerged, she had transformed the monstrosity into something entirely different.

Gone were the excessive embellishments. She had shortened the hem to just above the knees, removed the sleeves, and trimmed the neckline, leaving only a simple fastening at the collar.

With her impeccable figure, the revamped red dress looked stunning on Tina, fresh and modern.

Jared stared, momentarily stunned.
