"Mama, can I bring Misha with us?" Europa said pleadingly while carrying her pet in her arms.

"Sure, but you can't bring her inside the boutique." Wang Reiji replied right after fixing Europa's hair.

"Eh? So, we'll leave her inside the car?" Europa's face suddenly became worried.

"Don't worry, sweetie. Uncle Yuvin will drive the car for us... Maybe we can ask him to look after Misha while we are inside the boutique." Wang Reiji said as she took Misha from her daughter's hands.

"Let's go!" Carrying the cat in one arm, Wang Reiji stretched her hand for her daughter to hold.

"Okay, Mama!" Europa then reached out and held her mother's hand tightly.

Around 1:30 pm, the family of three had left the Villa and headed towards Queen's Wardrobe. Queen's Wardrobe's known for its classy and luxurious styles of gowns. All of the gowns created by Queen's Wardrobe were all made of the finest materials and sewn by a team of experts under Lady Tong's guidance.

Lady Tong's an iconic designer who's both loved and hated by many. She was loved because of her talent and magnificent gown designs but at the same time hated for thinking highly of herself and looking down on other designers. However, despite her terrible attitude, she was still the favorite designer of many celebrities and wealthy families.After an hour of driving, they had finally reached their destination. Wang Yuvin parked the car near the boutique's entrance so he can easily keep an eye on who enters and exits the boutique while waiting inside the car."Misha and I will wait here." Wang Yuvin said as his hands reached out to get Misha from the backseat. "Okay, bro. Thank you! Don't worry, this won't take long." Wang Reiji said as she unbuckled her seat belt."Mama, can I try fitting gowns, too?" Europa's eyes sparkled brightly as she looked straight into her mother's eyes and asked the question."Yes, of course, sweetie! If the shop has a ready-made gown of your size." Wang Reiji quickly replied before she stepped out of the car. She then held open the door for her daughter and assisted her to go down the vehicle. They then walked towards the boutique's entrance, hand in hand. As soon as they got nearer the Queen's Wardrobe entrance an attendant saw them approaching, she hurriedly opened the door and warmly welcomed them. "Good afternoon, Madame! Do you have an appointment with Lady Tong?" The attendant dressed in blue Ruqun asked and smiled radiantly at the good looking mother and daughter pair."Ah, yes. My appointment with Lady Tong is at 3 pm. The name is Jing Yizhi." Wang Reiji then presented a copy of a confirmation letter bearing Lady Tong's signature. She then roamed her eyes around to admire the boutique's interior design while the attendant was checking the guest list. The walls of the shop were painted with soft coral which perfectly complimented the rose-hued surface, imbuing the shop with elegance. The classic pieces in white and bright yellow added sophistication and maturity. Shifting her gaze to her right, she saw a marble staircase which probably leads to the room where Lady Tong personally assists her clients. Before her eyes can wander much, she heard the attendant spoke."I am afraid you still have to wait for 30 more minutes. Lady Tong's still assisting a VIP client." The attendant said, her tone was very apologetic."I see. That's fine with me." Wang Reiji answered and smiled at the attendant."The waiting area is this way, Madame." The attendant said as she moved to the side and parted the gauzy curtains, revealing a wooden door behind them. The attendant was about to open the door when she remembered that Lady Tong had locked the door earlier. "Excuse me, Madame. I will just get the key." The attendant then hurriedly went upstairs. Wang Reiji slightly nodded her head before she took her phone out from her bag to send her brother a message. After sending her message, she then turned her gaze at Europa."Sweetie, you heard the lady, right? We need to wait for 30 minutes. Hmmm... How about you and Uncle Yuvin visit the ice cream parlor across the street? I will just let you know when waiting's over." Wang Reiji said smilingly as she fixed the collar of her daughter's dress."Really? There's an ice cream store nearby?" Europa giggled as her eyes shone with much happiness. However, when she realized that her mother won't be coming with them, she suddenly turned gloomy."How about you, mama? Won't you come and join us?" Europa said as she lovingly hugged her mother's arm."Aww... Isn't my daughter the sweetest? Don't worry, I'll catch up with you later. I promise."Seemingly satisfied with her mother's retort, Europa rubbed her cheeks against Wang Reiji's arms and said, "Thank you, Mama!""Sorry for waiting, Madame! I have the key now." The attendant who just descended the stairs rushed to open the wooden door."Please, come in." The attendant said politely as she held open the door for the mother and daughter pair."Wow! Beautiful!"Europa exclaimed the instant she saw the grey vintage style high neck ball gown in the middle of the room, surrounded by three life-size mirrors. She then swiftly run toward the gown to take a closer look. Overwhelmed by the gown's beauty as well as its pear-shaped full skirt, Europa can't help but embrace the gown. However, when she pulled herself away from it, the embroidery got caught in Europa's unicorn pendant ripping the design off the fabric. 'GASSHHH'The loud sound of fabric ripping was heard across the waiting room, much to the attendant's horror and Wang Reiji's surprise.
