Chapter 1332 The Wedding Gown
After Jacqueline was brought into the makeup room, Jackson returned to his car and brought out a huge box.
The cosmetologist was baffled at the sight of the box. “Mister, what is-”
“It’s a bridal gown,” Jackson replied as he opened the box’s lid.
Inside was a beautiful snow-white wedding gown. It was littered with diamonds that glistened underneath the light.
Briefly astounded, the cosmetologist quickly regained her composure.
After all, she had seen many cases of the deceased being sent off in a wedding gown.
There were many couples who were engaged or in a relationship who lost one party to accidents. The surviving party would then gift the deceased a wedding gown or ring during the cremation as a symbol of their wedding.
As a result, the cosmetologist wasn’t surprised by Jackson’s action at all.
Instead, she was blown away by how expensive the wedding gown looked.
Nevertheless, when she saw the expensive clothes Jackson was wearing, she figured that he was obviously someone wealthy.
When the thought occurred to her, the cosmetologist was no longer surprised as she received the box in her hands. “I know what to do. I’ll dress her in the gown.”
“Mmm-hmm.” Jackson nodded before reaching into his jacket and retrieving a red velvet box. “Here’s the ring.”
“All right.” The cosmetologist took it. “I’ll doll her up to look her best in her wedding gown.”
“Thank you.” Jackson bowed at the cosmetologist before returning to his car. After changing into a tuxedo, he put a corsage over his left breast pocket.
By the time he emerged from the car, he looked exactly like a groom.
Meanwhile, Silas’ spy could feel his eyes pop out when he saw what transpired.
What’s going on? Is Dr. Baker planning to marry Jacqueline in her death before dying for love?
With that thought in mind, the spy called Silas immediately and reported everything he saw.
Shocked by the update, Silas knitted his brows tightly. “I understand. Continue to keep a close eye on him. If he makes any reckless moves, restrain him at once.”
“Will do,” the spy acknowledged with a nod.
After ending the call, Shane knocked on Shane’s office door.
“Come in,” Shane grunted.
Taking a deep breath, Silas entered. “Mr. Thompson, I have bad news. Dr. Baker has dressed himself and Jacqueline in wedding outfits.”
“What?” Shane wrinkled his brows as it took him a while to digest what Silas meant.
Silas reminded, “They’re both dressed as bride and groom.”
“Jackson dressed both himself and Jacqueline that way?” Shane’s expression darkened.
“That’s right.” Silas nodded.
A scowl descended upon Shane’s face. “What is he planning?”
“I don’t know. My man is watching him and will stop him from doing anything reckless,” Silas informed.
Shane clenched his fists without a word.
When he didn’t receive an answer, Silas deliberated briefly before asking, “Mr. Thompson, what should we do now? Shall we go and take a look?”
“What for? Since he wants to die, so be it,” Shane responded coldly with his lips pursed.
After all, he had just declared that he would stop caring about Jackson if the latter insisted on dying together with Jacqueline.
Silas, too, felt that Jackson wasn’t worth saving if he walked down that path.
Nonetheless, he still couldn’t bring himself to watch the latter die.
At the end of the day, they had known each other for more than ten years and were considered friends. Therefore, it was impossible for him to ignore Jackson’s well-being.
Adjusting his spectacles, Silas gathered his courage and suggested, “Perhaps, Dr. Baker isn’t looking to end his life and might be up to something else. Mr. Thompson, why don’t we check on him to avoid any future regrets.”
Regrets? Never!
In spite of his thoughts, Shane couldn’t deny the emotions that drove his heart to pound furiously.
Fine. In the end, he couldn’t bring himself to ignore Jackson either.
