" Right away! Ani Maxwell. Pumunta siya sa closet kung saan naka hang ang mga dress.

" This is quite the..uh. the selection.." aniya.

" It's all we could get ahold of, but I'd thought it'd make you look like the princess you're destined to be." Ani Maxwell sa kanya.

" Alright, i try it on.

" What do you think? Tanong niya kay Maxwell ng maisuot niya na ang gown.
" Honestly, you look beautiful." Sagot ni Maxwell.

" This outfit feels more " me".

" Anything, you lights up the room, Samantha." Ani Maxwell habang tinitingnan siya.

" Time to impress? " Sagot niya dito.

"Oh, look at you! You're all dressed and ready!" Ani Maxwell ng makitang suot na niya ang gown.

" Well.. it's a big night. And I don't want Bertrand disappoint me because i miss a thing. " Sabi niya kay Maxwell.
" If he were here, Bertrand might actually shed a tear.." seryosong sabi nito sa kanya.
" right before ordering me to do something else." Aniya.

" Actually. He beat you to it. He already ordered me to scort you." Ani Maxwell.

" Escort me where?

" It's a surprise!" Nakangiting saad nito. Maxwell lead you to throgh the Manor...at dinala siya sa boutique.

" Lady Samantha, what a coincidence running into you." Sabi nito sa kanya.

" It's interesting. I was told to wait here... even though I'm already dressed." Sabi niya kay Liam.
" I think perhaps someone is trying to give us time alone together." Ani Liam.
" Well.. im not complaining. I like the results." Sagot niya.

" I do too. You look beautiful." Ani Liam.
" And this is what you're wearing tonight?" Tanong niya.
" I was just deciding that now." Ani Liam.

" Since we're hosting, you could dress to match me." Sabi niya dito.
" That could cause quite a stir." Sagot ni Liam.
" It'd be a public way to show how close we are..." Aniya.

" It would....but it'd also be a rather bold move.." sabi nito sa kanya.

" Okay. You look amazing no matter what you wear."dismayado niyang saad.
" As long as you approve." Ani Liam.
" It's hard to disapprove you." Sagot niya dito.
" I'll see you tonight for the party, my lady. Until then. Liam bows bago lumabas ng Boutique. Siya namang pasok ni Maxwell sa kabilang kwarto.
