The Royal Contract

Chapter 827

Chapter 827: Live on the edge

After meeting Dani, Jacky, and the rest of their friends, Amelia concluded that she had a great time while they were all pampered at the spa, and the rest of the day had barely started. She also met Rosella, who had been too extra pleasant.

Rosella had been asking too many questions for someone she had just met. But that was ok. She was happy to entertain all her questions, finding it odd but still glad they were all friendly.

“After this, we should go shopping,” Jacky suggested, insisting they all need something new to show their partners and to feel great about themselves.

“Don’t you have enough clothes to fit your wardrobe?” Her new friend Dani reprimanded her bestfriend. From what she heard, they were very close.

“This would not take much space. I promise.” Jacky uttered in her seemingly sexy voice with that naughty glint in her eyes that made everyone laugh.

Amelia knew there was an internal joke in what Jacky said, but she did not get it. But she suddenly missed her bestfriend who was now working on a new life for her baby.

She knew Eida would also enjoy something like this. She made a mental note to treat her in one. Presently, she could try to relax and enjoy what her new friends had planned for the rest of the day.

.....

“Are you ready, girls?” Dani led the way to a fancy place. “You have to thank my husband for this.” She said, telling them that he had organized this one for them.

Her husband insisted they needed to detoxify after being stressed with the preparations. But they all could not agree more. Now, it was time to relax and enjoy before the big event because they all needed to look great for their partners. At least that was what Dani said.

Amelia could not help but wonder if she also wanted to look great for him. After this morning incident and their breakfast, he received a phone call reminding him that he had a job to do. So their time was cut short because he had to leave urgently because of a case.

“Oh, I like that idea.” Haley pinched in as if she had someone to impress. Then, she remembered her friend talking about a guy she met with drinks last night. At least her friend had a date at the ball.

Then again, Amelia remembered Evan was not attending this party because he was going home to visit Angela. Therefore, the likelihood that she would see him there was nil.

It was depressing to hear them talk about having partners, sensing the excitement in their voices, but she had to accept that she did not have one. And she was flying to this party solo.

But who said she still could not be happy about it and enjoy the rest of this celebration. She was not alone since she would have her new friends and probably meet more in this new place.

“Ok. I am in.” She also agreed to join them. Besides, it was rare that she had to meet these superb ladies and join them in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

“That is great,” Jacky said excitedly as they all enjoyed the rest of the massage, the skin rejuvenation, the nail and foot care, and the hair makeover.

After several hours later, they only had one more stop before dinner. “Ok. Girls. Since we are all feeling beautiful and sexy, we should proceed to our next stop.” Jacky announced as they rode the limousines provided for them.

A few minutes later, they entered one large classy, chic establishment full of a specific clothing line. A female host escorted them to their VIP lounge, where they could choose their best collections.

“Girls, feel free to choose the best lingerie you can find. The more revealing, the sexier. I can guarantee you...” Jacky paused, making a pose with one sexy pair of underwear. “...that your man would never look at another woman, ever again.”

She heard during the conversations that Jacky was engaged to a womanizer. But she managed to change him. Now they were prepping to get married.

Somehow, she wondered if all womanizers could truly change because of a woman. Or could it be a temporary fix until they returned to their womanizing ways? Could a playboy stick to one woman all his life?

“I think this would look great on you,” Haley moved to her side, showing her a one-piece nightgown that almost did not cover anything. “You know, Evan might like it.” Still, it was a beautiful red piece, made of soft, transparent lace.

Then, her friend showed her what she was looking to buy. It was an ensemble of black two-piece lingerie that barely was a piece of clothing with a lacy robe.

Well, when they said sexy, they meant almost naked.

However, she was still surprised by her statement, but she did mention his name. Suddenly, she wondered if Haley had any idea they were talking about the same Evan. But from the look on her face, she might think he was some random guy she met.

“I think most men would like all of this.” Amelia pointed to the selection of underwear and nightwear surrounding them. “Especially when it is on a beautiful body.” She could not help but be a little blue, knowing there was no way that Evan would see them on her body.

“Still, you should buy it. On second thought, buy more. You will never know when the time is right. You always had to be prepared.” Suddenly Rosella showed up from the corner, dumping more pieces on her lap.

“Besides, it is no crime to love yourself. To make yourself feel that you are beautiful and sexy. Then, everything else would follow.” Jacky continued. “Go on, try it on. Let us see if it would be enticing enough.”

“What?” She blurted out in shock. “You want me to try this on and parade it in front of you.” She and Eida go on shopping like this. It was usually Eida who was comfortable parading herself before her, not the other way around.

“Of course, silly. We need to see which one would work for you.” Jacky said as she sat on the comfortable sofa and sipped the complimentary champagne on the table. “Go on. Don’t be shy. It is just us.”

Suddenly, she felt she had no choice but to shake her head as Haley pushed her to the changing cubicle with the skimpy, lacy lingerie on her arms.

“Does her forehead has something written on it?” She mumbled as she stared at the full-size circular mirror surrounding her. When her eyes stared at her face, it did say innocence.

“Why did I even save myself for marriage?” Only to lose the man she wished to marry. Now, she was the only inexperienced in this group.

Funny and pathetic.

She started trying on a pair of red silks first, seeing what it would be like to wear them. Although she had plenty of expensive and beautiful lingerie in her wardrobe, it was not as sexy and revealing as these pairs of strings.

Well, she did feel different, seeing herself in the mirror. What would her friends think as she braved coming out of the cubicle to face them? Could this be the start of her new life?

Honestly, she did not want to be single all her life. However, could she live on the edge and risk her heart like all these girls did to get their men?
