Chapter 115
"Tsk... Carlos is really thoughtful," Juliet commented.
Circling Mikayla, she continued, "Look at this, if it were up to me, I'd go for something backless or has a plunging neckline... He's so stingy, only letting you show your legs!"
Mikayla stood there, feeling embarrassed at how Juliet just said whatever came to her mind.
"By the way, Mikayla, your figure is amazing! I wonder if there's any outfit in this world that doesn't look good on you," Juliet said, recalling how Mikayla always looked stunning, no matter what she wore since young.
At this time, there were only two of them in the dressing room. Mikayla glanced at Juliet's low-cut outfit that showed her deep cleavage and said, "You're not bad yourself. Your breasts are big!"
Juliet was about to reply when a deep, magnetic voice sounded. "Mika, are you ready?"
At the sight of Mikayla, Carlos' breath changed slightly, and his deep, dark eyes became even more profound and mysterious.
Carlos was dressed in a black suit with a bow tie, showing his tall and handsome figure and flawless features. The mature and dignified look made him strikingly handsome.
A handsome man would always look good, no matter what.
Juliet almost spat out a mouthful of blood when she saw the perfectly matched pair standing together.
Carlos naturally wrapped his arms around Mikayla from behind. Black and white was the most classical combination.
It was flawless.
"Damn it! Seeing you two standing together like this, I wonder if I'll ever get married," exclaimed Juliet.
"Then, don't get married!" Carlos said, adding fuel to the fire while looking at Mikayla.
'Fuck! Carlos, you're really something,' Juliet thought.
She was on the verge of exploding.
Just then, another man entered.
It was Elvis.
"Why is he here?" Juliet was furious at the memory of how he coldly rejected her when she kindly returned his clothes last time.
"Kashton was supposed to be here, but he asked Elvis to help him last minute," Carlos explained.
This made Juliet deeply suspect that Kashton was doing it intentionally. She mentally cursed him over and over again.
'Damn it! He's not giving up on trying to set me up with Elvis. If I ever see him next time, I'll have to "thank" him properly for his efforts,' she thought. Meanwhile, Kashton, who was browsing through an adult store, felt chills at his back.
"Guys, are you ready?" The photographer's voice sounded.
Carlos and Mikayla looked at each other with a smile. "We're ready," they said in unison, their voices unusually neat and orderly.
Juliet rolled her eyes at them. 'Damn it! They're flaunting their love,' she thought.
But in an instant of distraction, she bumped into Elvis, who was leaving at the same time.
"Watch where you going!" Juliet cursed under her breath before straightening up and walking off without looking at Elvis.
'Payback for him for being so arrogant and cold,' she thought.
Elvis watched her arrogant figure strutting away.
'Women are such troublesome creatures,' he mused.
"Just let me know if you feel uncomfortable with your feet later, and we'll take it slowly," Carlos said as he walked beside Mikayla. "Okay," the latter replied.
Originally, Carlos had planned to
take a couple of days for the shoot, considering Mikayla's feet, so she wouldn't have to stand for too long and wear high heels. But Mikayla didn't want to delay her work, so they decided to shoot both indoor and outdoor scenes in one day and come back the next day to pick the photos. It conveniently filled up their weekend schedule.
However, Mikayla didn't anticipate that they would end up shootinga total of 12 outfits for both indoor and outdoor scenes, leaving her
body stiff and her smile unnatural by
the end.
Elvis and Juliet had been accompanying the shoot throughout. The two stood apart and didn't exchange a single word. Seeing their awkward interaction, Elvis couldn't help but smile. The shoot was paused several times due to Mikayla's foot injury.
It was already 10 p.m. when they finished shooting.
To be precise, there were three wedding dresses for the night scene.
Fortunately, the photographer assured them that the nighttime shots would turn out beautifully.
But now, it wasn't Mikayla's concern anymore. She was too tired to say any words.
It was 11 p.m. when they arrived back in Xosa's downtown from the shooting location.
They had been rushing all day and hadn't even had dinner yet. By the time they returned, everyone was famished.
The car stopped at a high-endfine
dining restaurant at Xosa. The four of them sat at a square table by the

view of Xosa adding to the restaurant's romantic elegance. After ordering their meals, Mikayla checked the time and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
Carlos also stood up. "I'll go with you."
He glanced at Elvis, and the latter nodded.
Reluctant to sit with Elvis, Juliet couldn't help but call Kashton. He didn't pick up the first time, only answering on the second try.
"Damn it, Kashton! Are you on top of a woman right now?" Her words completely ruined the atmosphere that Kashton had just managed to adjust.
He pushed away the naked woman beside him and sat up. "Juliet, you bitch!"
"Don't tell me that you're preying on innocent women right now," Juliet said, a wicked smile playing on her lips.
"It's none of your business!" Kashton snapped. "Did anything happen between you and Elvis today?"
Hearing the snicker on the other end of the line, Juliet pursed her lips. "Kashton, mark my words-one day, the heavens will send a woman to deal with you!"
"I'm looking forward to it, too!" Kashton retorted.
Fed up with his nonsense, Juliet hung up the phone angrily.
"What are you staring at, never seen a beauty before?" she asked.
Sitting next to Elvis made her feel uncomfortable.
Elvin glanced at her coldly and indifferently. He picked up his glass and took a sip.
Juliet suddenly remembered what Kashton had told her before. "Elvis, Kashton told me that you're still a virgin. Is that true?"
Cough! Elvis choked on his drink. He placed the glass back on the table and hastily wiped his mouth with a couple of napkins. "Is it true?" Juliet persisted.
At that moment, Mikayla and Carlos returned from the restroom and noticed Elvis' unusual fluster.
Seeing them back, Elvis stood up and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
He left somewhat hurriedly, leaving Mikayla puzzled. She asked Juliet, "What's wrong with him?"
Juliet shrugged innocently. "I just asked him if he's a virgin."
Mikayla rolled her eyes at Juliet. She thought it was no wonder Elvis, who was always serious, had that expression just now.
