Trash Husband, I'm the Top novel Chapter 243

Once the engagement was finalized, both families moved swiftly to arrange the wedding. The date was set for next month.

Daniel had no desire for complications—he wanted everything settled, no drama.

He glanced at Nora, noting how she immediately stood up for Una. His tone softened a little. “Ms. Lawson, this is your design. Feel free to oversee any alterations yourself.”

Before Una could respond, Nora cut in with a sharp, mocking edge. “Mr. Chambers, you don’t understand fashion, so of course you can casually suggest ‘just alter it.’ But a dress has its own spirit and style—minor adjustments are fine, but overhaul it? Might as well start from scratch.”

Her stance was firm. “Eleanor, whatever you paid, I’ll pay triple. Una can’t alter this dress for you.”

That was exactly how Una felt.

She couldn’t do it.

And honestly, she’d rather refund the money than see Eleanor walk down the aisle in something she created—especially for that marriage. The very thought left a bitter taste in her mouth.

She spoke quietly but firmly. “Ms. Quinn, would you mind taking off the dress? I can’t let you have it.”

Eleanor inched closer to Daniel, her eyes glistening as if she might cry. “Dan…”

Daniel was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Nora. “Aurora, don’t make a scene.”

He’d already explained: Eleanor’s marriage to Hans was supposed to be her security, his promise as a brother.

Nora’s voice was icy. “Mr. Chambers’ little sister deserves the best, of course. Una’s just a small-time designer—her work hardly suits your family, does it?”

She let out a soft laugh, though her words were razor-sharp. “Or maybe Mr. Chambers and Ms. Quinn just want to get under my skin, knowing Una’s my best friend?”

Eleanor’s eyes brimmed with tears.

“I only wanted a unique, custom gown—that’s why I asked the shop owner. I had no idea Ms. Lawson was the designer.”

Nora was done wasting words. She turned to Una, asking how much the dress cost.
