Chapter 489 A Whole New Person

Meanwhile at City C.

Dolores had poured a cup of water when she woke up during the night due to thirst, but she couldn’t fall
asleep anymore after drinking the water and got back to the bed, so she directly woke up and took a
book to read while sitting at the bedside.

She was sleeping alone in the room, the two children were sleeping in another rooms, so she didn’t
have to worry that she might disturb them. The place she lived was not a detached house, it was a
residential area with great environment and facilities, and it was quiet. There was one unit at each floor,
the area was neither too big nor small, it was one hundred and sixty square meters with four bedrooms,
two bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room.

When Theresa was back, she would also stay here. Dolores was the one who had asked Theresa to
stay here because Theresa was hurt before, there were more people staying here and could avoid her
from staying alone and thinking too much, the four bedrooms were just enough for them to stay.

There was a bookshelf being placed at the right side of the window in her bedroom, it was full of books.
The books were not related to fashion design, they were China’s cultural history books. As a powerful
country with history of five thousand years, the ancestors had left uncountable intangible cultural
heritages which were profound.

Some of these books were related to embroideries.

There were many types of embroideries, like hands embroidery, seeding embroidery, gold thread
embroidery, double-sided embroidery and so on. She had noticed in the past, but she didn’t research
deep into these, now she realized that these things were so beautiful after she calmed down.

Especially the traditional culture of the country, in which the red color gave a good symbol and
meaning.



She had read a paragraph of article talking about the ancient marriage in a book, she was so attracted
to the wedding dress inside.

The wedding dress, ‘gown’ which was popular nowadays, was the first choice of most young couples.

It was white and clean, representing the purity of love.

In fact, this wasn’t the implied meaning at the beginning, it was the explanation given by the people at
later time. The origin of gown could be traced back to the Roman times, because during that time,
white color symbolized joy, it was that simple and just similar to our country in which red color was the
color of joy.

Visually, Dolores felt that red color could represent more joyful and lively atmosphere.

Red color was full of enthusiasm, as bright as the fire, deep but hot. She felt that this could reflect more
of the feeling than gown when someone got married, it was positive and enthusiastic, some more it
brought the curiosity of the future.

From her thought, this was the feeling when getting married, looking forward and being curious of the
future, with enthusiasm as well.

This time, she had created a series of wedding dress with a total of twelve pieces. All of the designs
were made referring to the ancient wedding dress, combining with some modern elements, every dress
have different patterns, the embroidery was different as well, but the main fabric was the same.

The combination of Tea silk with different embroideries as well as the combination of ancient wedding
dress with modern elements, giving a whole new design and symbol, she had named this series as
Modern Chinese.



She found out that the modern Chinese interior design was popular recently in the country, so it meant
that the people were still having deep affections to the things that were left by the ancestors.

She not only wanted to let Tea silk come back into people’s sights again, but she also wanted to
expand this culture to other places as well. She had the connections, it wasn’t difficult for her to have a
fashion show at international level. What she wanted to do now, was to make this series perfect and
she must make it shine in the international arena.

She had faced a lot of problems during the process of making, she was researching about these
recently. Although she was a bit tired, but her life was enriched. Sometimes when she was free, she
would miss that person as well, but she had spent more time in researching and solving the problems.
She would keep on repeating the experiment, the designs would also be changed as the patterns
changed, so the time had passed quickly.

This night was still the same, she had fallen asleep in the bed when reading the book, the book was
still in her hand.

She hadn’t woken up even at daybreak.

The two children had become more independent now, they could wear their clothes, wash their faces
and brush their teeth by themselves without the help from others.

Theresa had taken a look at Dolores in the morning, she knew that Dolores had stayed up late reading
the books again, so she didn’t wake her up. Theresa was wearing a slip long dress which was loose,
she didn’t comb her hair intentionally, so the thick hair was a bit messy, but she looked pretty with the
indolence. She went to the kitchen and prepared the breakfast, they had ordered the milk for breakfast
which would be delivered on time at seven o’clock, the milk was fresh without adding any additives and
was healthier. It was better to have the milk without any flavor processing.



She was frying the eggs while putting the toasts into the toaster, the two kids who had woken up came
inside and said that they wanted to help her.

Theresa frowned, “What you guys can do?”

“Help you to prepare the breakfast?” Amanda stretched her arms and wanted to help Theresa to fry the
eggs. Theresa didn’t wish to disappoint them seeing that they were so enthusiastic, but she couldn’t let
them do the dangerous things, so she had let them do the tasks that they could, “Amanda, help me to
take the milk from the door, Andrew helps to make the toasts.”

Amanda was very active, she ran outside with her short legs, while Andrew stood in front of the toaster,
looking at the back of Theresa who was cutting the fruits and he asked, “Theresa, I feel like seeing a
different person every time when I see you.”

Theresa’s looks had changed, although her name was also Theresa, but she looked different from the
past and her voice was not the same as before.

Her voice cords were injured during the explosion, her looks and voice had changed, so Andrew felt
that he couldn’t adapt to this Theresa.

Theresa didn’t turn, she put the cut fruits in a plate and asked, “Do I look prettier now or before?”

Andrew rested his chin on the hand while thinking with the serious face, “If just looking at your face,
now it looks more delicate, but I still prefer your looks in the past, you looked more cordial.”

Theresa had become colder now, she was not as lively as before, calling her Theresa made him feel
like calling another person.

Theresa put the fried eggs onto the plate, she turned and glanced at Andrew, “Are you praising me, or
talking bad about me?”



“Of course I’m praising you, looking nice or bad was just the appearance, you’re beautiful only if you’re
kind-hearted. In the past, Theresa looked beautiful, and the heart was more beautiful.”

“Little boy, you’ve become more and more honey-tongued, don’t boast.”

Andrew giggled, “I’m telling the truth.” He had soon changed the topic, “Theresa, can I give you a
suggestion?”

“Hmm?”

Theresa turned off the heat, the sunny eggs were done. She turned and leaned against the stove, then
she looked at Andrew and asked, “What suggestion?”

“I feel that the current Theresa is not Theresa.”

Theresa frowned, “Little boy, what do you mean?”

“No, don’t worry, let me finish my words first.” Andrew explained anxiously, his voice sounded eager.

This time Theresa had calmed down, she crossed her arms and waited for him to continue talking
patiently, she wanted to see what this little boy could tell.

“I think that Theresa may be considered as renascence, not only changing the looks and voice, I think
that the name can be changed as well, so this will make a whole new ‘person’. ”

Then he and his sister wouldn’t feel awkward calling her again.

Every time when calling Theresa, he would hesitate for a while.

Theresa was lost in thought, what this little boy said was a bit true. Now there was only her name which
was related to the past, but her looks were totally different from the past.



She was a whole new person, she should really consider changing her name.

“I’m counting on you to get this done, help me to think of a nice and charming name.” Theresa lifted her
chin up toward Andrew.
