Chapter 101 [Bonus chapter] missed chapter before 97

“My lady, I have been waiting for you for so long! Finally I got the chance to meet you” as if she was a long lost sister of hazel.

The wide smile on her face was worth watching. Hazel raised a brow and took a step back when the woman tried to hug her.

The woman’s wide smile stiffened as her raised hands stayed in the air when Hazel avoided gher as if she had a contagious disease.

“My lady!”

“Ah! Were you trying to hug me? I apologize, I have seen a bug there!” she pointed at the place where she was standing before.

It was such a lame excuse that even the designer knew that, yet she nodded as it was the only way to save her respect.

“Ah! Is that so? You must have been shocked to see that! I would ask the count to have a thorough check of the room again.” Hazel nodded as she went in keeping her distance from the woman who was trying to cling to her.

“My lady, since I have no idea what you like, I have brought all the latest design booklets.

Please give it a look and tell me what you would like. Also, I have a few designs ready, if you like any of them, I can alter it immediately so that you do not worry about your clothes being late.

So, what would you like my lady? Shall I prepare a new bunch of clothes or would you like to try the ready-made ones?” The lady stood up after giving more than 5 dozen designs of checks and then took out curtains from a15 dresses.

Hazel frowned as she was not able to check the catalogs when the readymades were already taken out.

With a gloomy look on her face she stood up to check the readymade dresses but before she had seen two of them closely and walked towards the third one, the designer once again came closer and stood behind her with an upset face.

“My lady, I know that you are rather new to it and need your own sweet time to decide, you must know that we did not have enough time.

If you take that much time then we will not be able to choose one on time and it would be hard to make an amendment or prepare a new one later.

You should know that time is of the essence when making the decision!”

All the nerves of Hazel’s head popped open with the force the lady was putting in it.

It might feel that she was worried about her dress therefore she was asking her to be quick, but she could see how she was trying to show that hazel was a country bumpkin who had no idea about clothes or who did not know what would be befitting to her even if she would spend all day looking into dresses.

In the end, the woman didn’t even want to make one dress for her. Therefore she was forcing her so much to choose. And later she could just say that she did not get enough time because the lady took the whole day to finalize one.

And if Hazel chose one hurriedly, and the dress was not upto the standard of the empress, even when she would be blamed for her lack of taste and for not knowing about her position enough.

In both cases, she would be the one to blame, then wouldn’t it be good if she would create a third option that would benefit her! With that thought her eyes twinkled.

“Oh my, are you still looking at only the third dress? With that speed, you will not be able to check the dresses by the time the party starts. Then how am I supposed to prepare them on time?” with an exaggerating sigh, the lady shook her head as if she was too tired to even think about it!

“Then don’t prepare them!” instead of looking at the dresses anymore. She walked towards the sofa and sat on it leisurely,

She placed her one leg over the sofa and then crossed her other feet over it while leaning on the backrest.

“Pardon!” with a look of astonishment on her face and taken back by her crude behavior, the designer was not able to grasp the situation for a while when Hazel chuckled,

“It is very simple, if you think that you will not be able to prepare the dress on time. Then you should not even start it. I will tell Rafael that you are incompetent and he would arrange a better desiner for me who was confiende enough that he had a dress that match my standards before evening!”

Shrugging her shoulders as if she was only trying to help her, she picked up the cup of tea and took a sip of it.

There was no worry or panic on her face. If it would have been any other woman they would have been going berserk that there is a party in their honor but they did not have a single good dress to wear.

Yet the woman was sitting so freely as if the matter did not concern her at all.

The confused designer continued to stand there when Hazel raised a brow.

“Why are you still standing here? Have I not asked you to leave?” the designer flinched as she heard her cold voice.

She was not expecting Hazel to shout like that and took a few steps back.

“That, that is not the case, my lady. I was just too excited that I got the chance to prepare a dress for the empress.

I apologize if I sounded rude, take your own time and choose the dress up to your liking. I would surely prepare it even if I have to use all my staff on a single dress!”

“Is that so? Then I want to prepare you all the dresses of the catalog and I will choose one that would match my mood at that time!”
