"Eat while it’s still warm! See if my cooking skills get worse."
Ashlyn hesitated for a moment.
In the end, she ate two pieces with misty eyes.
Davis mistook her reaction for being deeply moved, so he raised his hand in a playful oath to cook for her more often whenever he had spare time.
Ashlyn responded with a faint smile, saying nothing more.
Right now, her priority was organizing the upcoming "Weddings of a Thousand Dreams" event for the D family. She intended to deliver an unforgettable surprise to Davis during the event.
Two days later, the fan meeting, which had been heavily promoted for over half a year, finally kicked off.
The venue featured a breathtaking display of ten thousand and one wedding photos, all assembled into a massive check-in screen for fans. At the heart of it was an image of Davis dressed in an immaculate black suit, captured in a dramatic kneeling pose.
Upright and noble, no wonder he earned the title of 'The Knight in Black Suit' by his fans.
Ticket prices for the in-field event skyrocketed due to scalpers, with front-row seats fetching between thirty and forty thousand.
Yet, the venue was still packed to capacity. The crowd consisted mostly of girls dressed in wedding gowns, creating a surreal and spectacular atmosphere.
Over the years, Ashlyn had poured significant resources into cultivating Davis’s fan base. His fame and reputation had soared to new heights, making him a sought-after ambassador for luxury brands like D's.
Once the ribbon-cutting ceremony concluded, the schedule moved to the highly anticipated segment, the exchange of gifts between fans and their beloved idol.
The first fan to step onto the stage was Belinda Harris, the well-known daughter of the affluent Harris Family. Her plump figure and radiant expression exuded an air of privilege.
When the host called her name to go to the stage, her face lit up with joy. Even the constraints of her wedding dress could not suppress her eagerness as she hurriedly made her way to Davis. In her enthusiasm, she stumbled and nearly fell directly into his arms.
Davis held her steady in a gentlemanly manner as he avoided any contact with her exposed skin during the entire process.
Grasping the microphone with unbridled enthusiasm, Belinda declared, "Davis Miller, I love you! One day, I will make you marry me!"
The audience erupted into laughter.
The girl was unfazed by the reaction and reached into a box and revealed a meticulously crafted jade pendant in the shape of a butterfly.
"This is a newly acquired masterpiece by my father. It’s part of a pair. One is here and the other is housed in the British Museum."
The host audibly gasped and a murmur of intrigue rippled through the audience.
The smile on Davis’s face faltered as his expression suddenly froze.
His previously calm demeanor gave way to unease as his gaze darted around the crowd, searching frantically for Ashlyn.
It was Ashlyn’s collection!
Years ago, after Davis had sustained a back injury during a film shoot, Ashlyn consulted a master artisan and paid an exorbitant sum to secure it, as it symbolized the importance of stability and foundation.
Only recently, she had cleared out many of her belongings from their home. Davis had assumed it was part of a plan to relocate to a new mansion, so he did not ask any questions.
How had this valuable piece ended up in the hands of this fan?
Davis was flustered, but he could only pretend to be calm on the stage as he graciously declined the extravagant jade pendant. Then, he removed the branded ring his father had gifted him and exchanged it for the bracelet on the girl’s wrist.
The girl was so satisfied that she did not miss the opportunity to call out when she left, "Davis, remember my name, Belinda Harris! My father runs the largest medical supply chain in Silverbrook! Just wait. I will bring you home as my husband!"
Davis chuckled shyly and bent slightly to adjust the hem of her wedding dress as she stepped down.
The crowd cheered as the next fan walked onto the stage.
Ashlyn, who had been working diligently in the background, instinctively looked up and her entire body stiffened in an instant.
The wedding dress was covered with the dazzling luster of Swarovski crystals and the gown’s sleek fishtail design clung elegantly to her figure, swaying with every step like a graceful mermaid.
It was Eve Sterling.
Ashlyn knew she would come, but she had not imagined that she would arrive wearing that wedding dress.
No wonder Davis had shown no interest in helping her acquire the dress.
No wonder the boutique shop manager was panicked for a moment.
This wedding dress was personally reserved by Davis for Eve Sterling!
