Chapter 874

As Evelyn explained herself in a soft voice, Colton's eyes narrowed slightly before he ordered coldly, "There are so many designers in this world that you can pick whomever you prefer. You don't have to be so set on Nicole."

Frustration flashed in her eyes. She was about to marry Colton, yet he was speaking up for Nicole?

She bit her lip lightly and clenched her fists. "But I think Miss Lisa's design is beautiful too. I fell in love with it right away. But I'm not about to let her design it for free. I will pay her."

How wouldn't he know what she was thinking? He placed his hand on the table and murmured carelessly. "If you are determined to get her as a designer, then I think this engagement can be canceled."


Her smile froze on her face. She did not expect that he would rather cancel the engagement just because of such a trivial issue. His mother had already discussed things with her mother and the event was set to be held at the Town Central Hotel. The Gardners had already booked the venue and while they hadn't sent the invitations to her family, the news had already spread far and wide. How could he not care about his family's honor just because of Nicole?

Evelyn's expression turned stony. She had assumed that marrying Colton would get rid of all her problems, yet that woman was still the only person important to him. Rage rose within her, but she did not dare to show it in front of him.

After some time, she eventually forced a smile and replied obediently, "You're right, Collie. There are so many good designers in this world, and I don't need to make her my only choice."

She looked up at him with a hint of forced warmth. "My mother has already contacted a lot of designers. Would you like to come along and help me choose?"

Colton's expression was frigid. Seeing that she would no longer trouble Nicole, he simply responded, "I'm busy at the office. You'll have to sort it out yourself."

Exasperation showed on Evelyn's face after she saw how unbothered he looked. Wrinkling her nose, she pleaded, "Collie, we will be engaged in a little more than a week. Can't you take some time off to accompany me?"
