Chapter 1286 Wedding Dress

Of course, at Miranda's level, even if she wanted to show her goodwill, it wouldn't seem too deliberate. After hearing that Jack wanted to be called by his name directly, she smiled and nodded to him.

"Then I wonder if there has been any new progress in your investigation?"

Jack didn't respond but looked at Beckett. After all, the female detective was the protagonist of this case.

"In fact, we found evidence that it wasn't Ella who got your meeting time wrong, but someone else tampered with your calendar through technical means."

Beckett's words froze Miranda's smile on her face. After a while, she asked with difficulty, "Are you trying to say that I fired Ella and Grace for no reason?"

"That's how I see it from their perspective." Beckett nodded slightly, "So I need you to think carefully about who would have the motive to deliberately frame Ella?"

"I don't know." Miranda leaned weakly on the table, "But I know there are many people who have motives to do this to me."

"Are you saying that these might be directed at you?" Jack thought about it and it seemed possible.

Miranda continued, "Some things happened long before the publishing house and magazine were bought. For more than a year, sharks that smelled blood have been circling nearby."

"You mean there are a lot of people eyeing your position? Even if they are just small tricks, being late for an important meeting is equivalent to making a fool of yourself in public. If it happens too often, it will reduce your authority." Beckett suddenly realized.

At this time, Miranda's phone beeped twice, and she put on her reading glasses and said, "It doesn't take many times. In fact, it has caused me a lot of trouble before.

If some people hadn’t mistakenly thought that I was deliberately late to challenge his authority.”

At this point, she smiled and waved to Hannah and Jiejie, indicating that there was no need to say more. "Of course, after getting your support, these are no longer a problem. I think some people may be very unhappy."

As she spoke, she had already finished reading the text messages on her phone. She held her forehead and complained, "Damn it, I thought everything would go smoothly after today."

"What's wrong, Miranda?" Hannah seemed to be very familiar with this "fashion godmother".

"I need to find the dresses for the next issue of the magazine in half an hour, but the models are stuck on the way."

Miranda apologized and stood up to go back to her office, but she stopped after taking two steps and turned to look at the three ladies present with sharp eyes.

Jack's heart was filled with alarm, but before he could think of what to say, Miranda spoke first, "Detective Beckett, many years ago I wanted to offer you a job, but you turned me down."

Someone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then Miranda continued, "How about just consider it as returning a favor for me? Try on a few dresses for me."

"That sounds like a good idea." Before Beckett could react, Hannah put her arm around her shoulders, and Jiejie also looked interested.

Seeing that the female detective was about to say something, Cassel also advised, "Although Martha will definitely regret not being there, this is a good opportunity, isn't it?"

However, Miranda's next words shocked Jack. "The other two, come along. I have more than ten wedding dresses to choose from. Detective Beckett alone cannot handle it all."

The ivory silk fabric is cut into smooth mermaid curves, and countless Austrian crystals are inlaid at the waist to form a winding butterfly wing pattern, which is dazzling.

The tulle skirt, which was made up of countless layers of lace and hand-gilded, was paired with a pearl-tasseled shawl that hung down from the waist and extended back for several meters. When Jiejie walked, it was like the tide surging under the moonlight.

Miranda didn't realize that she was flattering the wrong person. She held her chin with one hand and asked the two men present for their opinions, "What do you think of this classic mermaid wedding dress?"

"Absolutely.perfect!" Jack uttered two words through his teeth.

Following Jiejie out of the dressing room was Hannah, who was wearing multiple layers of light green gradient tulle, with three-dimensional vines and lily of the valley embroidered on the skirt, and a hand-woven golden leaf-veined waist ornament wrapped around the waist.

The V-neckline is made of transparent organza to create petal-shaped pleats, and two transparent ribbons decorated with dew-shaped crystals hang down from the shoulders, adding a touch of playfulness to the sexy look.

The veil is made of airy, fluffy tulle, embellished with simulated butterflies and fireflies, and finally matched with a pair of moss green satin high heels, making Hannah look like an elf goddess walking out of the forest.

"This forest elf wedding dress."

Before Miranda could finish, she was interrupted by Jack, whose back was already sweating, "Stunning!"

Cassel, who was covering his mouth with his hands and laughing while taking pictures with his mobile phone, was stunned the next second.

Unlike the two girls who walked out confidently, wishing their loved ones could see them dressed like brides right away, the oldest Beckett was a little shy when she appeared.

The ivory fabric of the same color as Jiejie's is interwoven with handmade lace. Unlike the modern low-cut style, it instead highlights the retro Victorian-era high-neck design, and the neckline is inlaid with pearl buttons, which perfectly conceals the slightly thin flaws of the female detective.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The sleeves are made of translucent lace, and the skirt is also made of lace with retro patterns. The hem of the skirt is supported to form a bell shape, outlining an extremely thin waist, and a bow train is embellished at the back waist.

The stylist also added a lace veil and a silver crown to Beckett, magically transforming a dashing female detective into a 19th century European court lady.

"Wow!" Cassel's mouth opened into a big O shape and didn't close for a long time.

"It looks like you might have to speed up your search for a wedding venue." Jack patted his shoulder.

The three girls were standing in front of the floor-length mirror, admiring their wedding dresses. One of the two men behind them was sweating profusely, while the other was full of anticipation and excitement, with tears in his eyes.

Fortunately, a phone call from Alice saved Jack's life. The IP address showed that the guy who tampered with Miranda's schedule was from a design studio in SOHO.

After Beckett changed her clothes, Jack took her away from "Tianqiao" magazine as if he was escaping for his life. "Remember the fat sissy Japanese-American we saw in the magazine's studio before?"

"One of the designers who participated in the 'Amazing Five' talent show? The one named Youmi?" Beckett, who was still immersed in some thoughts, took a long time to react and remembered the conversation between Jack and Cassel in the police station yesterday.

Jack nodded, "The design studio we're going to belongs to him."
