Chapter 70 - First Time
The young lady smiled nervously as she asked, and beads of sweat began to drip from her forehead. Why is she sweating? Well, if she makes any stupid mistake and offends Adrik, the manager of the company might not be so happy with her... she might... even get fired.
Adrik glanced at her and blinked his eyes in contemplation. "Something sexy and beautiful." He said this while staring at the young lady.
"Okay..." The young lady smiled, revealing her pearly white teeth. "What about color?" She stares at Adrik with anticipation in her eyes.
Adrik fluttered his eyes and took a low breath. His little wife was not a fan of pink, as he had never seen her wear pink, and white, as wearing that to date won't be so nice, Maybe red can work. I mean, red dresses are beautiful. He agreed within him and glanced at the young lady, "Red."
"Okay, please follow me." The young lady gestured Adrik towards the second floor and they walked into the section that sold the most expensive dresses, in which he was sure that it wasn't just any rich person that could come here.
The young lady pulled out a comfortable seat for him, and he gently sat down, then crossed his legs and interlocked his hands.
His hair, which was tied up into a ponytail, fell over the chair, keeping just a little distance between it and the floor.
The young lady smiled and began to rifle through the shelf, looking for a suitable dress that would be able to meet Adrik's expectations.
She pulled out a red long-sleeve dress that had a V-neckline and presented it to Adrik.
Adrik gazed at it for a while and shook his head. It wasn't as sexy nor as beautiful as he wanted.
The young lady smiled yet again and pulled out another one with a slim hand, stopping just at the knee length. But just like before, Adrik shook his head at her.
The young lady continued to present more dresses, but none of them was to his liking, so he had no other choice but to stand up and choose by himself.
He walked to the shelf and slowly began to trace his fingers on them as he passed each piece of clothing. A boring expression emerged on his face, and just when he was about to give up and leave, a red dress that sparkled under the luminous light in the building caught his eyes, and he immediately halted and stepped back to it.
He grabbed it and examined it from head to toe, nodding in satisfaction. The dress was sleeveless with an opening at its side waist that would reveal the wearer's side stomach. It was a body-hug type of gown and stopped at knee length.
"I will take this." He handed the dress to the young lady and his gaze wandered to the shoe section. He immediately found a perfect heel that would fit the dress and a smile formed on his lips behind the mask on his face.
Don't worry, he totally hasn't forgotten that Leia can't wear heels, and that's why he chose this heel. It's not too tall and will be easy for her to walk in.
The young lady took it and the other things he bought, like a necklace and earrings, and packaged them up, then handed the bag to his men.
He paid the bills, and with that being done, he exited the building with his men following behind, and they sped out of the company facility.
When he arrived home, the sun was already showing signs of setting, so he handed the bag to one of his men and ordered him to deliver it to Leia. "Tell her that I will be back soon." With that being said, he left the mansion with his car and went to an unknown location.
...
Leia, who was staring at one of Adrik's men handing a bag to her, fluttered her eyes and slowly received the bag. She peeked inside it and saw boxes that were beautifully packaged, and a smile crept onto her face.
"The master asked me to give it to you." With that being said, the bodyguard gave a respectful bow to her and walked away.
Leia's eyes blinked in curiosity, and she hurriedly went upstairs, then rushed to their room and shut the door behind her.
She ambled to the bed and jumped into it, then tossed the bag open. She pulled the boxes out and found that there were a total of four boxes.
Two were big, whilst the other two were small. A huge smile appeared on her face, and she decided to open the big ones first.
Leia ripped them open and what came into her view was a sparkling red dress that looked so beautiful. Her jaw fell, and she stared at it for a while. "Wow..." was all that left in her mouth.
She proceeded to open the next one, and red heels that were not too high appeared in front of her. "Ooo..." She chuckled softly and kept it beside her on the bed.
Then she commenced to open the two remaining small boxes, and what she saw inside had her jaws falling yet again. "Is this pure gold?" She blinked her eyes as she stared at two earrings and a beautiful necklace with a heart pendant. A deep breath escaped her nose, and she shook her head in disbelief.
These were totally pure gold, but did Adrik have to go this far? Whoa... he actually bought pure gold for her. I mean, her father never bought any for her, except for her sisters, so yes, this was the first time someone bought one for her, and it brought a new feeling within her.
Her face suddenly altered at the thought of her father, and her hands balled into a tight fist. Just you wait! She smirked evilly and resumed admiring the jewelry.
She adored it for a while, and a low sigh left her mouth. They were all so beautiful.
