His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 570

“Wow!”

A collective gasp filled the room as all eyes fell on Beverly, who timidly scurried behind Evadne for cover. The transformation was nothing short of miraculous.

Clothes truly do make the person!

When she first arrived, Beverly was clad in a simple, inexpensive dress. Although her natural beauty was undeniable, her meek demeanor and slouched posture betrayed an ingrained sense of inferiority that was heart–wrenching to witness.

But now, after Evadne’s magical touch, Beverly appeared entirely reborn! To the uninformed, she could easily pass for aristocracy! “Gosh, she’s stunning!”

Nydia clapped her hands in glee, her grin so wide it almost split her face. “Beverly was already a looker, but with that dress on, she’s positively radiant! I’m dying of envy!”

“That dress does have a certain something,” Chasel admitted, his praise rare and valuable.

“Ha! I should hope so–it’s my own handiwork. Unique in the whole world. If anyone dares say it isn’t gorgeous, I’d like to hear them try,” boasted Camille, tilting her chin proudly, her long legs crossed. Her gaze towards Beverly was as satisfied as if her creation had just graced the runway at an international fashion show.

“I thought it looked like your work, Camille! It’s so you!” Nydia looked at Camille with pure adoration. “When it comes to top–notch designers around here, it’s either Haron or you. Ah, if only I could meet Haron in person one day. She’s like the shining star of the design world! I need her autograph and a photo with her!”

Camille sipped her tea and cast a playful glance at Evadne, letting out a soft chuckle.

Chasel’s eyes widened in surprise. He had heard of the famed designer Camille while abroad but had never expected the girl beside him to be the one, and she did so bad in BBQ.

The friends of Evadne truly were exceptional.

“Ms. Camille,” Chasel called out.

“What can I do for you, Dr. Bright?” Camille responded, her demeanor warm and polite. She had long heard of Chasel’s reputation from her mentor.

“Ahem, might I commission you to design a suit?” Chasel’s gaze drifted casually towards Cassius. “A men’s suit, to be precise.” “My schedule is booked solid for the next six months.”

“Ah.” Chasel’s face fell, hope dissipated.

“However,” Camille continued, leaning back with a teasing smile, “since you are a good friend of my mentor, I’ll certainly make an exception. But to ensure the best fit for a suit, I’ll need to take your measurements personally. If you could stop by my studio, that would be ideal. If not, send me your measurements–the more detailed, the better.”

Chasel’s gaze returned from the towering man, a smile playing on his lips. “I’ll make it a priority. Thank you.”

“Thaddeus? Gordon? When did you guys get back?”

Despite the noise of the gathering, Evadne spotted the two shocked men at the doorway immediately. Her eyes lit up with joy, and, taking Beverly by the hand, she walked over to them.
