The butler nodded repeatedly, "Yes, he is. We just received a new batch of premium fabrics, and Mr. Fabio hasbeen eager to work with them. He was just saying that he wants to tailor a perfectly fitted suit for you. Please,come in!"
Jean smiled and said, "He's quite diligent. Last time, he made a suit for me, but I haven't had a chance to wear ityet…"
As they entered the mansion, Neera was surprised to find that it housed a large fashion studio.
The studio was filled with completed garments, including suits, formal dresses, and cheongsams, all meticulouslycrafted and of exceptional quality. Each piece, from the fabric material to the design and workmanship, was thework of skilled artisans.
Neera was captivated by the wide array of exquisite designs, a testament to her sensitivity and appreciation forvarious fields of design.

They have generations of experience in the industry and holdan unshakable position. Our families have a longstanding relationship, and the Beauvort family often customizesour clothes here."
"I see…" Neera nodded, now understanding the profound background of this family business.

Soon, a handsome man with long hair appeared from the corner of the stairs.
He was dressed in a somewhat ethereal white robe, exuding an air of refinement.
As he descended the stairs, he walked straight toward Jean, greeting him warmly, "What wind blew you heretoday? You didn't even tell me in advance. Did you come to get a suit tailored? A phone call would have sufficed,and I could have come to your place. No need to tire yourself by coming all the way here."
His words were sincere, displaying a genuine concern for Jean's well-being.
It was evident that they had a close relationship.
Jean smiled and replied, "It was a last-minute decision, but it's okay. I've been feeling better lately."
He then gestured toward Neera and said, "She'll be attending a family banquet with me soon, so help her pick outsome ready-to-wear clothes."
The man, named Fabio Lopez, turned to Neera and took a good look at her from head to toe.
Neera stood her ground, offering a polite greeting, "Hello," and meeting his gaze confidently.
Upon closer inspection, she noticed Fabio's attractive features and gentle demeanor.
Fabio reciprocated the greeting, briefly introducing himself, "Hello, I'm Fabio Lopez."
He then raised an eyebrow, looking back at Jean, and asked, "Is she the one Mr. Frederic ordered for you?"
Jean nodded graciously, not denying it.
Confirming this, Fabio couldn't help but scrutinize Neera once again, his eyes carrying a hint of appraisal.
Maintaining her poised smile, Neera showed no sign of nervousness.
Her grace and composure earned Fabio's admiration, and he smiled again.
"I must say, your dad has great taste. With your figure, looks, and charisma, you're a perfect match for Jean."

"As our family's sister-in-law, I'll pick out a perfect outfit for you. Let's go to the second floor."
With that, he gestured to Neera, "Sister-in-law, please follow me."
