Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

At the backstage dressing room.

"What's the matter? Why isn't my dress here yet? What is your problem? Didn't you agree to send it at this time?" The staff were too afraid to reply after being reprimanded by Yvonne. They merely stood there with their heads lowered.

"Are you deaf or dumb? Speak, what's going on?" "W-We don't know what's going on. We agreed to send the gown here today, but..." "But what?" "But someone else bought the gown, so..." "Who bought it? What do you mean?" Yvonne's eyes widened. "Didn't I reserve the dress? How can someone else purchase it?" "Yvonne, when you ordered that dress earlier on, you only did it verbally. You never paid for it, so..." Upon hearing their words, Yvonne slammed her hand down on the table in anger, shouting, "So, you refuse to send it tojust because I didn't make a payment? That's absurd! I'm a famous star in the entertainment industry. Will I not pay for it? I want to see the person-in-charge." "Miss Arnold, stop yelling," ordered a man's voice out of the blue.

Irvin Clark, the person-in-charge, strode in. Clad in a blue suit, he entered the room with one hand in his pocket. "You? Irvin! There you are. Explain towhat's going on! Why didn't you send the dress that I ordered today? Don't you know that the press conference is about to begin?" With his eyebrows raised, he replied to her, "Haven't the rest told you about it? You only agreed verbally. We did not promise that we would send it to you." When Yvonne heard him, she stood up furiously.

"What do you mean? Of course I'll pay for it. I requested for the gown to be sent over to me, but you didn't do so. Where is the gown now?" "It's been paid in full by someone else," Irvin chuckled and replied without beating around the bush. Yvonne's agent Hugo began to speak up.

"Irvin, that's too much. If the deal is off, why didn't you tell us in advance? It's impossible that Yvonne can't afford a dress." "Is that so?" asked Irvin innocently with his eyebrows arched. "Since Miss Arnold was not willing to pay 20 percent of the deposit, it is hard to believe that she will pay the full amount. After all, the dress has not been made available to the public. If an accident happens, we won't be able to sell it. Besides, I recall our company's staff telling you that if you don't pay the deposit, we can't guarantee well send this dress to you." Yvonne replied, "How could you neglect your responsibility?" "What responsibility? After all, it was merely a verbal agreement. Miss Arnold, even if you are a celebrity, please don't behave so tyrannically." Yvonne's face turned green with rage. Gnashing her teeth, she moved forward but Hugo stopped her.

Hugo wore a helpless look. "What should we do now? You didn't inform us in advance. We have yet to prepare her outfit. What should she wear for the press conference?" "That's none of our business. I'm here to inform Miss Arnold that it's your fault. Our company will not accept any negative feedback." "You!" Yvonne clenched her teeth in anger. "Aren't you afraid that I'll expose what your company did to me?" "If I was you, I would not do that. Offending a huge brand like us is not very wise. The other brands might turn you down." After the confrontation, they left at once.

Yvonne's face pale. "What should I do now? Do you wantto attend the press conference in my current clothes? D*mn it, how dare Irvin do this to me!" Everyone else in the room dared not say a word. Hugo furrowed his brows as he tried to think of a solution. "The only thing we can do is to go to other brands and see if we can..." "Excuse me, is this Miss Arnold's dressing room?" A female voice sounded from outside all of a sudden.

"Who is it?" The two women took a step forward and presented a beautifully packaged gift box in front of her.

"Miss Arnold, our boss asked us to hand this over to you." "What is it?" Yvonne was still enraged. Therefore, her eyebrows were furrowed together when she asked.

Hugo felt a little strange and went forward to open the box. After looking at it, his expression changed slightly. "Oh, it's actually..." "Isn't this Irvin's gown? What's going on? Why is it here?" "Could it be... Could it be that the buyer bought the dress for you?" Yvonne, who had been angry, was stunned by those words. She approached the box and found that the sgown she had chosen was in it.

How could that be? "Oh, my! He's a generous and romantic man. He bought it for you. He must be pursuing you, right?" "You are such a blessed woman that a man would spend so much effort to surprise you."

Yvonne was a little flattered by everyone's words. She couldn't stop the corners of her mouth from m quirking up. "That's not true. There are a lot of people chasing after me." She looked up at the two girls in front of her and asked, "What's the nof your boss?" They only shook their heads, saying, "Miss Arnold, our boss only told us to send the dress to you. We'll make a move first." After that, they left without answering Yvonne's question.

"Hey, don't go, at least tellwho he is." "What an anonymous man," commented Hugo. "Yvonne, do you know who sent you this?"

"How could I possibly know?" Yvonne folded her arms across her chest and answered arrogantly. There are many people pursuing me. Perhaps he is one of them."

Although many men had flaunted their wealth during their pursuit of her, none of them had been like that. That man Successfully gained Yvonne's favour. After all, he had bought the dress for her in the nick of time. Although she had freaked out, she was on cloud nine after receiving the dress.

She was flattered by the admiration in the eyes of the onlookers.

"Stop daydreaming. Hurry up and get dressed and put on your makeup. Get ready, you are going onstage." "That's right, Yvonne. Hurry up and put on your makeup. The press conference is about to begin." "Humph, that despicable Irvin. I'll deal with him when I go back. How dare he act so arrogant in front of me." Yvonne's lips curled as she looked at the gown in the box. Indeed, with her pretty face, she could do whatever she wanted.

Unfortunately, she had no knowledge that the higher a person flew, the harder they would fall.
