Chapter 1241
From the material to the craftsmanship, even the embroidery and stitching looked like the one
Anastasia had ordered.
"You're quibbling again!" She threw the dress down angrily.
'If she can't tell the difference, does she even know which dress she bought?'
Lily picked up a corner of the dress with a smile and said, "Ms. Rollins, don't worry. I bought this dress
from the same store. Although it looks very similar to the one you reserved, I don't think this is yours."
"What gives you..."
"Yours must still be in the store," Lily interrupted Anastasia.
Anastasia was taken aback by this. She blinked as if she was trying to process what was going on.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMs. Rollins, did you put down a deposit for the dress that you ordered?"
"Of course!"
How else could she reserve a dress without putting down a deposit? Anastasia paid a 50% deposit for
the dress, which the shop had to alter to fit her figure.
Her dresses at home were all beautiful and made from good-quality fabrics. Thus, it was difficult to
shop for clothes that fit her. Finding clothes that could hide her flaws and make her look better was
even more difficult. Therefore, Anastasia was a regular customer of that store.
Because of this, she also lost her temper when she heard someone had bought the dress she had
reserved.
The salesgirl told her that Lily insisted on buying the dress, even after knowing that Anastasia had
reserved it. The salesgirl even told her that Lily said it was a waste for someone of Anastasia's size to
be wearing such a beautiful dress.
That was the last straw for Anastasia; hence, she flew at Lily in a rage. Without her proper upbringing,
Anastasia would have lost control of herself and used her fists to talk.
"Exactly. If you've made the deposit, the dress has to be yours. Any store with even a little business
ethic would never sell it to someone else.
Therefore, your dress must still be in the store. As for this one, it's just a replica of it," Lily said with a
light smile as she poked the dress with her finger.
Now that all the cards were on the table, Anastasia pieced everything together. She felt relieved after
holding the dress in her hands, but... She picked up the dress again and carefully checked the
underarm and waist area for any signs of wear and tear.
"How do I know if someone else hadn't worn this dress?" She said pointedly. "Although I'm not very
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmparticular with my clothes, I'm not comfortable wearing something that someone else has already
worn!"
Lily laughed. "You're funny, Ms. Rollins. It's a gift for you. How can it be used? I still have some sense
of decency in me."
After a pause, she straightened up, rubbed her stomach, and said, "I'm pregnant. I'm mostly dressed
casually at home. This dress isn't suitable for me, but it's perfect for a pretty girl your age."
"Now, you're just mocking me.' Anatasia frowned when she heard the compliment.
She was a girl, after all. She still cared about beauty.
Anatasia was obese. Although she was from a renowned family, she always felt too ashamed to meet
anyone because of her figure. Her pride, coupled with her low self-esteem, kept her at home. She did
not like to feel like people were pointing fingers at her, nor did she like to hear praises about her.
