Chapter 277

Elena

“Why are you all staring at me?” I asked nervously. Rona held a few strands of my hair between her hands while Tiffany stepped forward. “She has dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and she would fit in the dress.”

All the girls, including Anya, took relieved breaths and laughed at the situation while I was still confused about my involvement. What did I even do to deserve this?

“You don’t mind, right, Elena?” Anya asked with hopeful eyes. Even if I wanted to say no, I had all these girls staring at me, and Rona squeezing her nails into my back-ready to kill me any second. “These people are paying us a lot, so just nod and smile,” She whispered.

Unfortunately, she was right, they were generous people, and now it was time to do something in return. “I mean, sure—why not!” I tried to sound as cheerful as possible.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” Anya jumped up and down. “Tiffany, go and get her in the dress!”

Tiffany dragged me out of the room while Rona followed her. She led us to a changing room and wasted no time as she grabbed a dress that was almost identical to hers. “This should fit you!” She held the dress next to my body.

Rona unzipped the back of my dress while I accepted my fate and just went along with it. “Why does she needs someone with dark hair and dark eyes?” I wondered as I stepped out of my dress.

“All the pairs have the same hair color, and some of these girls even dyed their hair for the wedding, Tiffany explained. It appeared a lot of time and energy went into this ceremony.

“So the person I’ll be paired with has dark brown hair and dark brown eyes?” I chuckled. “That’s crazy.” Tiffany and Rona forced me into the dress. “It might be Tiffany spoke out of breath. “Anyway, don’t worry, it’ll only be for a while, and after that, we’ll take some pictures-and your partner is nice.” “Really?”

“Yes, it’s Tiago’s brother. He looks scary, and he doesn’t really talk much, but he is handsome and polite.” “Seems like the two of you are destined to be together!” Rona commented. I knew what she meant as the combination of Tiago’s brother and me was something I had heard a few times too many, but it was all pure coincidence. Tiffany had a surprised look on her face. “Did the two of you meet already?”

“No, but I did.” Rona smiled. She did meet him once, and the only thing she had to say about him was that he was handsome beyond words and could give Tiago a run for his money. “So he works for the government?” Rona asked.

Tiffany stopped for a second and scoffed. “For or against?”

“Hm? Rona frowned. “I asked him if he was a special agent, and he said, yes, something like that.” She mimicked his tone while Tiffany shook her head.

“He does not work for the government. Let’s just say he has a connection with bars.”

“Is he a rapper?” Rona blinked. If I had to pick the runner-up for the nosiest person, it had to be Rona. “The only thing that guy is wrapping are dead bodies, Tiffany mumbled. Rona didn’t hear her, but I did-
