Chapter 206

The changing room was almost 200 square meters wide.

All the space was used to store clothes and shoes…

All of them were custom made by a designer who was so famous that even Jane recognized the name.

Everything was super-limited edition.

These things could not be bought with money alone.

It was because these designs were customized. They were one-of-a-kind.

The next time the designer received an order, he would ask someone else to create a design..

It would not be the same style.

It was completely different from the kind of limited edition outfits Madelyn always wore and showed off.

The discontinued items she owned did not come close, either.

This was the real deal. There was only one of each in the entire world.

Not to mention the luxury cosmetic brands she saw.

“Oh, to be young, ****, and rich.”

Even Jane could not help but say this.

Not to mention how much money was needed to maintain Count Lauren’s castle.

The things in this room alone were worth at least tens of millions.

Jane even found it hard to make a decision.

After some thought, Jane could only surrender to fate and pick a red evening gown.

She wore black leather gloves that were engraved with diamonds.

After putting on a pair of crystal high heels, she flipped back her long hair with both hands, letting it fall

over her shoulders.

Facing the mirror, she completed the look with a costume tiara made of crystal.

There was a pile of skincare products on the table, along with all kinds of branded lipsticks and

foundations.

Jane had taken a fancy to one of them.

Her lips curled into a smile.

She picked up the rouge.

It was a charming custom, unique to Crucsians.

Jane placed it on her lips and pressed on it.

Now, her lips were bright red.

They looked extremely kissable.

After

putting on some light makeup, Jane walked out of the room.

Jack, who was waiting outside, could not help but pause when he saw Jane.

It took him a while to come back to his senses.

Although he knew that Jane was gorgeous, after dressing up, she looked as beautiful as a fairy.

She looked immaculate.

Jane raised an eyebrow. “Why? Is there something wrong?”

“No… Miss Jane Fowler, you’re too beautiful. I was too engrossed just now. I’m so sorry. Please don’t tell

Mr. Croft about this. I’m afraid Mr. Croft might misunderstand.”

Jack quickly explained.

Fortunately, Hugh was not around.

A wornan who could make Hugh go to such an extent must be very important to him.

It would not be untoward to say that he liked her.

Knowing the ruthless tyrant that Hugh was, he would not allow others to have any interest in his woman.

“Don’t worry. I won’t say anything.”

Jane casually flipped her long hair.

This way…

She would be able to give Hugh a “surprise” later.

Jack brought Jane to the top floor of the castle

He stopped in front of a red door.

“Mr. Croft is inside. Please enter, Miss Jane Fowler.”

“Okay.”

Jane stepped forward and pushed open the door.

She walked straight in.

She noticed that the ceiling of the room had been modified. The room itself was spacious, a few hundred

square meters

wide.

The ceiling had been changed to glass. It was transparent.

Jane could see the snowflakes fluttering in the night sky.

The room was warm.

In front of her, a figure stood by the French windows.

He looked like an ancient Wetanean prince.

He was dressed in an aristocratic suit, with redbuds as the primary color.

Every button was done meticulously, and the golden jade piercing through the man’s sleeves exuded his

graceful and noble aura.

He wore long leather shoes, and his hair had been meticulously styled. He looked immaculate and

elegant.

There was a faint fragrance on his body. It was not a brand Jane knew, but it made her feel at ease.

At this moment, Hugh was not the person the world knew him as. He was neither cold-hearted, ruthless,

nor bloodthirsty. He had gotten rid of those.

Only a man with a gentle, calming presence was left.

His handsome face was as perfect as a god’s. Under the faint light of the glass lamp, he looked so

beautiful that it made one’s heart flutter.

No one would have thought that D.Y. Group’s president, Hugh Croft, would have such a gentle side.

And it was because Hugh would only show Jane this side of him.

Jane was the only person in the world who could bask in his tenderness forever.

Every time Jane approached Hugh, his heartbeat would start to quicken uncontrollably.

This was a reaction caused by two Type Omega blood coming into contact. Jane knew this.

Jane had thought because she had seen Hugh so many times, she would have gotten used to the

pounding in her heart.

However, she felt as if they were meeting each other for the first time.

It was so full of passion.

Hugh’s deep eyes gazed at her red evening gown. He saw her walking over toward him, proud as a

phoenix.

He only had eyes for her.

And his heart could no longer accommodate anything else.

There were millions of resplendent beauties in the world.

But Hugh wanted only one

Jane stood in front of Hugh.

Hugh extended his hand to Jane.

He bowed slightly, like a true Wetanean prince.

She was the woman he loved the most, and he was showing her his highest form of respect.

The corners of Jane’s ***curled up. She took off her black leather gloves and reached out with her

smooth and

delicate right hand, placing it in Hugh’s palm.

Hugh took the opportunity to hold Jane’s hand.

He placed it in his palm and stroked her thumb gently.

It was smooth. It felt like satin in his hand.

He had touched her hand.

He never wanted to let go of it.

Hugh held Jane’s hand and let her walk to his side.

Jane spoke softly. Her voice sounded slow and calm like a cat purring. It made his heart stir. “How much

effort did it take to pull off such a grand gesture?”

“I saw Andy at the International Students Drawing Competition. I told you, to celebrate your victory, I

would give you a surprise. I wanted it to be today, on Christmas.”

Hugh’s voice was like a flowing brook.

As he spoke, Jane heard the sound of snowflakes falling onto the glass ceiling.

They fell right into her heart.

In the midst of everything….

Hugh harbored a little selfish desire.

He had not been satisfied with only text messages and video calls. He could only see her through the

phone screen.

He wanted to see Jane standing before him, feeling her warmth and smelling her fragrance.

As people used to say, nice guys finish last.

Hugh’s rational mind told him he should not interfere with Jane’s trip to Meridonia. She had too many

important things to

do.

But his heart did not allow it.

“Thank you.”

Jane smiled at Hugh.

Her smile filled Hugh’s heart.

Hugh could not help but extend his other hand, brushing his fingertips carefully across Jane’s delicate

face.

Jane felt ticklish.

She frowned slightly.

Hugh’s touch seemed to have reached into Jane’s heart.

It was an irresistible temptation.

“Janie, you don’t have to thank me. For you, I would do anything….. Now and in the future, you’re the

mistress of this castle. I’m giving you the right to use this castle. Everything here is made for you. I’ve

already instructed everyone. This is my Christmas present to you.”
