Irene The Lady Who Turned Down Fate - Chapter 229
After a while they reached the downtown,
“Sister are we both to your shop?”
“Of course! I can’t let you in others hands or else they might curse me forever.” Irene said ad she came down the carriage while Ashton followed her.
“Why would they curse at you?…Wait! Are you trying to day that I’m annoying?”
.
“Well atleast your brain works fast!”
“Sister!!” Ashton cried in annoyance as they went inside the shop.
“Boss, you are here! And—you even brought your brother along!” The manager said as she smiled towards Ashton who just nodded his head a little.
.
“Hey! He is my brother.” Irene said as she hit her head with a thin file and walked inside the clothing area.
“I know! There is no need to hit me.”
“Quit slacking off and come here and bring that assistant of your yours along too.”
.
10 minutes later,
“Ashton sit on the chair and wait for us.” Irene said as she head towards the studio and bought some materials, tapes and a sketch book witj her.
“Sister are you going to make one for me?”
“Yeah why?”
“But won’t that take more time and my graduation ceremony is just next week.”
.
“Don’t worry I will only make you a nice coat for you the shirt and pants are already tailored made and they won’t be that much important but for the coat it must be the signature outfit.” Irene said as she started her work and took his measurements one after another.
.
“Next let’s chosse the material.”
“My Lady, it is summer so white, yellow, light blue and green would be good themes don’t you think so?”
“Now you are talking like a well deserved Manager.” Irene said as she smiled while looking at her.
.
“Say Ash which colour will you prefer, here ai bought the colour chart for you.”
“Sister, all this colours are the same for me, just chose soemthing that would suit me.” Ashton said as he looked her with a bright smile on his charming face.
.
“So chessy, Okay I will chosse one for you—green, blue you have wore them a lot…how about you wear yellow this time.”
“Yellow? Why not White? He has such a nice skin colour and frame white would make him look superior.” The Assistant asked as he looked at Irene who was doodling something on her sketch book.
.
“Yeah, white would look good in him. So, I’m saving that colour for his weeding day. A special colour for a special day, a special person.” Irene said as she kept on doodling in her notebook while others smiled and Ash turned red.
“Do you really need to think of my wedding now?” Ashton who was a bit embarrassed said as he held onto her sleeves.
.
“Why? Do you want to stay single forever? *looks at Ash who opens his mouth to death something but remains speechless* Here! I am done right the designs now chosde which one do you find more attractive?” Irene said as she handed him the notebook where three roughly drawn sketch of coats were present.
.
“Wow! Boss your skills are as admirable as always.”
“Boss, where do you get such hood inspiration?”
“Both of you be silent for a while. Ashton chose anyone if them or I will draw another one for you.”
“No need, they are all good and tricky. The first outfit gives off the winter family vibe while the second one gives the knight vibe and the last one is giving an impression of my personality. are you testing me?”
He said while looking at her with a smirk.
.
“You can say that I am, anyway take your time and think about this while siting here.” Irene said a she took her head fan in her hand and went towards the exist.
“Hey! Where are you going?” Ashton asked a she felt uncomfortable around others.
“Just be good and pick one I will be back soon.” Saying that she left the room in a hurry.
.
The downtown market was divided into two parts the one at the left was the Nobles Market and the at the right was the commoners market and both of them despite being located eight at opposite to each other has the difference of sky and earth.
.
The noble market just like its name had all the fine clothing to jewelery to shoes to daily necessity to food everything was top notch and fine made.
Whereas the commoners market was just the opposite although for them it was nothing less then the nobles as that made them happy and content.
.
And right now Irene was moving towards the commoners market just because she felt like she should.
“Sister! You are here again!” The little girl form the other times said as she ran towards Irene.
“Little girl you are here again!” Irene said as she smiled towards her.
.
“Yes, I live around so I keep coming here but why are you here? And your clothes look–are so shiny.”
“Haha, yeah but you know shiny things aren’t always good.”
“Why?”
“Because their shine sometime make people blind.” Irene said as she patted her head and suddenly touched something soft on her hair, she looked closely and saw a dandelions clip was cliped at her hair.
.
“A dandelion?”
“Oh! A Sister gave this to me…she said it looked good on me.”
“I agree with her, this really looks good on you.”
“(But this piece was espically made by our family and not many own this piece so who have this to her?)”
.
“Really but I think this would look mire good on that sister then me, you know she had the same vibe as you…Oh, there she is!” That girl said as she pinted towards the crowd of people, Irne turned around and for a second she saw a girl with red hair but she wasn’t able to see her face.
.
“That is the Sister who gave you this clip?” Irene asked as she stood up and kept lokimg at the girl who was slowly walking towards neither direction.
“Yes she is–”
was the only thing she said and Irene was already running towards her and luckily she didn’t wear heels today so running was a piece of cake for her.
.
“Hey you red hair girl!” She said and the girl who was waking at normal speed suddenly started walking faster.
“Hey! Why are you increasing your speed!” Irene said as by that time she started running after her but that red haired girl suddenly dissapered form the among the crowd of people.
.
“Ha–Where did she dissaper too?” Irene said as she looked around in frustration.
“Ha, and where the heck am I at?” Irene who has always been bad at direction specially at crowded places said while looking around like a lost puppy.
.
Irene kept looking around but still she kept coming back to the same place and to make matters worse it was about to rain soon and for a time now she has been have a feeling that someone is following her.
“(God, today I have used all of my bad luck!! Please save me!!)” Irene thought while walking but she reached dead end and the footsteps kept coming near her and all of a sudden she felt a hand in her shoulder.
.
“Ahh! Leave me alone or I will kick your ass!!” She shouted while turning around.
On the other hand, Ash who has been waiting her for an hour now was getting anxious which every passing minute and the rain was making things worser.
.
“Enough! I can’t sit and wait for here anymore! Give me a umbrella I will go and search for jer myself!” He said as he stood up but the assistant made him sit down again.
“No way! If we let you out now the boss will kill us without a second thought! And Boss will be fine and even if she isn’t…we can’t let you go out.” The manager said as she served him with tea.
.
“What? What do you mean?”
“The first rule Noth of us folow is if there comes a time to choose between boss and her family Members always chosse family members.” The manager said as she sugar cube melted into the tea and Ash felt cold all over his shoulders.
.
Wheras with Irene,
“Lady Winter!” Sam who was now on the ground said as she looked at Irene fully socked in rain water and thanks to Irene’s push she got mud all over her clothes and also a cut near her elbow.
.
“Sam! Why is it you? And I’m so sorry!” Sje said while quickly helping her to get up.
“Lady Winter, I saw you lost so I thought of helping you out but looks like I creeper you out.” She said while laughing awkwardly.
.
“Sam…I’m so sorry…but this isn’t the time to laugh you will catch a cold. How about I take you to my shop and give you change of cloth..” Irene said as she looked at Sam who nodded her head and with that both if them walked towards the noble market, of course Sam was leading the way.
