Chapter 1214
Even as the thought crossed Cordy’s mind, Wendy stepped out of the changing room.
However, she was still in her casual dress from before and not wearing her bridal gown.
Cordy could immediately tell what Wendy was up to with a single look, but she held her tongue while John asked,
"What's wrong? Doesn't the dress fit?
"No," Wendy replied a little anxiously. "Something urgent came up, so I have to go right now. I took off the bridal
gown halfway." "What happened?" "My friend got into a traffic accident. I need to get to the hospital right now.
Cordy was blue with shock-that was such an outrageous lie!

'I don’t know, she didn't say. I need to find out at the hospital."
I'll take you there." "No, it's alright." Wendy refused right away. "You can decide on the bridal gown-l don't know
when I can make it back. I'll love anything you decide on anyway.
Before John could say more, Wendy quickly left. "I'm going now, Johnny. I'll call you later."
And with that, she was gone, leaving John behind.
John watched as she left, disappointment clearly showing in his eyes.
Zoe and Jay stepped out of the changing room just then, with Jay having put on a white tuxedo.
They were a picturesque sight and very easy on the eyes, and Jay's noble presence was hardly dampened despite
being seated on a wheelchair.
"Wait, why is Wendy leaving?" Zoe asked, staring as Wendy headed to the distance. "I was just looking forward to
seeing if she looked good in hers. John here personally stayed abroad for a week, keeping a close eye on the tailors
as they made her dress!" "Her friend met with an accident. She's heading to the hospital right now," John explained.
"Now of all times..." Zoe grumbled, clearly upset.
John did not say anything in turn.
"So? The gown isn't going to try itself," Zoe said.
John simply sighed.
"How about..." Zoe suddenly exclaimed as inspiration struck. "Cordy try it?" "Nope." Cordy refused right away.
"But we're supposed to try on all the dresses today!" Zoe exclaimed in agitation. "Just do it. See if it looks good on
you!" "Only the bride should try on the bridal gown. It might jinx things if someone else does." "But you won't mind

right, John?" Zoe asked, turning toward him.
As John pursed his lips, Zoe kept goading him. "Don't you at least want to see what it looks like when worn?"
Before Cordy spoke, John said sincerely, "If you don't mind, Cordy..."
Cordy was taken aback.
Most people would mind, would they not?!
She pointed out, "Wendy would probably be unhappy if someone else were to put on her bridal gown..." "No, she
wouldn't," John said confidently. "She's never petty, and if we don't try it out today, we won't have time for
adjustments. So please try it out." "But my body measurements are different. And the look-"
Zoe did not wait for Cordy's approval at all and dragged Cordy toward the changing room right then, saying, "Oh,
stop saying no, Cordy. Just try it out and see how it feels overall first! Measurements and the rest can wait.
Now get going—I’ll help too!"
