(This is after the book series. Massimo is NOT a good person in this book)
Laura chose Nacho. In fact they got married and are expecting a baby. Something she was going to have twice with Massimo. Heart broken, and angry, Massimo goes to the hospita...
They arrived at a large studio building. "She is the best of the best. She will be taking measurements. It's amazing that I was able to get her to agree to doing your dress. She will give you the best of the best." Massimo told her, when he helped her out.
Mila, just like in the car ride over, stayed silent. They went inside where a man was waiting for them. "Don Torricelli. Welcome. I'm Mrs. Carver's assistant, follow me." The man told the two.
Massimo put his arm around Mila's waist and lead her behind the man. Mila looked around her. The artwork in the building were beautiful. Massimo smiled when he looked down at her. He used his thumb to rub the soft skin of her shoulder.
Soon, they were in front of double doors. The assistant knocked on it, and the three waited till a woman's voice was heard. "Come in Massimo." The woman told the three.
The assistant opened the one door for the two and allowed them inside. Massimo led her inside. Mila looked at the older woman. She had her blonde hair in a bun, and a simple white silk skirt, and black business skirt.
She was a good-looking woman for her older age. Mila had to assume that the woman in front of her was in her late thirties or early forties.
"Please. Have a seat. I take it this is the new bride to be?" The woman asked, sitting down. Massimo helped Mila sit in the chair. She was stiff seeing the woman looking her over already. She felt like she was naked. She was stiff in nervousness.
She felt like a bug underneath a boot that was debating on if it wanted to step on her.
"Indeed. This is Mila St. Claire." Massimo answered. "Hello." Mila whispered softly. "Soft spoken." Mrs. Carver noted. "When she wants to." Massimo said. "She's quite shy." He explained. Carver nodded. "Well Mila. My name is Ivy Carver. I will need you to take your dress off and stand for me so I may measure and examine you." Carver explained.
"Everything will be quick if you stand still and answer my questions. I know some women are uncomfortable with having another man in the room when undressed, but my assistant is needed, he won't even be looking, just writing what I tell him down." She continued.
Mila gulped but nodded, her fists clenching. Another male seeing her body? Including her rapist? Her kidnapper? She can't cry. This woman was being paid by Massimo. She wouldn't help her anyway. So, her tears would be a waste.
"Massimo. Please take a step out, you can sit by the door." Ivy Carver told Massimo as she stood. Massimo looked between Ivy and Mila. He sighed standing and went to Mila. "I will be just out that door." He told her, kissing her head before leaving.
Ivy held a hand out to Mila. Milla let out a deep breath and took it. She then stood. "Please step out of your dress. You may keep your under garments on." Ivy told the girl. Mila reached behind her and unzipped her dress.
She allowed it to drop to her feet, and she stepped out of it. Then she looked at Ivy. Ivy was scanning the younger womans face.
