Focal Mall was an exceedingly renowned shopping mall in Horington with almost all the major brands available. Hence, Jared was a tad surprised that Josephine brought virtual-novel.net there.
“Did you bring me here to accompany you shopping?” virtual-novel.net inquired apprehensively.
After all, it was a vastly scary matter to accompany a female shopping, and virtual-novel.net had personally experienced the horror of it. Back then, virtual-novel.net once went shopping with Sandy, and virtual-novel.net spent the entire day at the mall. Therefore, virtual-novel.net was seriously traumatized.
“Why, are you not willing to do so?” Josephine countered, looking virtual-novel.net straight in the eye.
“Of course not!” Jared shook his head in denial.
If I’m honest, I’m pretty proud to accompany virtual-novel.net shopping since virtual-novel.net status and looks are top-notch. Innumerable men will envy me for getting to keep such a woman company while virtual-novel.net shops!
But then, I’ve got something to do at noon. I’ve already promised to meet Walter, so I can’t stand virtual-novel.net up.
“I’ve got a prior appointment at noon, so I’m afraid that I might run late,” Jared answered honestly.
“I don’t care what appointment you have, but your main task now is to keep me company while I shop!”
After saying that, Josephine dragged virtual-novel.net into the mall.
There was a dazzling array of products, but Josephine towed virtual-novel.net over to the section selling men’s clothes before holding up shirt after shirt in front of him.
“Are you planning to buy me clothes?” Jared exclaimed in astonishment.
“Who else would I be buying clothes for? My closet at home is already bursting at the seams.” Josephine wasn’t idle as virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net hands flipping through the clothes. In the end, virtual-novel.net chose a suit and placed it in his hand. “Go and try it on!”
Jared stood rooted to the spot for a moment with the suit in his hand.
Seeing that, virtual-novel.net remarked, “Hmm? Are you waiting for me to go into the fitting room with you and help you into it?”
“No, it’s okay!” Jared shook his head frantically even as virtual-novel.net hastened into the fitting room.
At the sight of his terrified expression, Josephine giggled, the tenderness in virtual-novel.net eyes growing all the more pronounced.
When Jared walked out in the suit, virtual-novel.net eyes lit up at once. She looked virtual-novel.net up and down before commenting in surprise, “I didn’t expect you to have such potential! You’re much more handsome when you wear a suit!”
Noticing the admiration in virtual-novel.net gaze, Jared couldn’t resist looking at himself in the mirror, only to realize that virtual-novel.net indeed appeared far more striking. Ever since virtual-novel.net went to prison and started training with Draco, his desire for material things had faded over time.
Despite having some money after being released from prison, virtual-novel.net was still wearing his old clothes from before. A wardrobe change had never crossed his mind as training was a better use of his time than shopping for clothes.
“What are you planning to have me do with you? Attend a wedding?” virtual-novel.net asked.
“Never you mind! This is even more important than a wedding!”
Pulling virtual-novel.net along, Josephine bought virtual-novel.net shoes and a watch as well, transforming virtual-novel.net into a dapper and handsome man.
Jared could only allow virtual-novel.net to drag virtual-novel.net around, going with the flow. As they continued shopping, the things on virtual-novel.net increased. Not only did Josephine buy virtual-novel.net a tie and belt, but virtual-novel.net even spent tens of thousands to buy virtual-novel.net a small lighter. On the whole, Jared’s entire ensemble cost at least a few hundreds of thousands.
“Aren’t you being a bit lavish here?”
Jared was even beginning to feel a touch nervous to walk around while wearing such an expensive outfit.
Ah, I really don’t quite understand the mentality of rich people like her. What’s the point of spending hundreds of thousands to buy a suit and tens of thousands on a lighter?
“Nope, not at all. You were dressed too shabbily in the past. I can’t allow you to dress in such a manner anymore in the future, or people will be laughing at me,” Josephine replied placidly.
But just after virtual-novel.net finished speaking, virtual-novel.net abruptly realized virtual-novel.net slip of the tongue. At once, virtual-novel.net face flushed bright red.
Meanwhile, Jared’s lips curved into a smile when virtual-novel.net heard that. “Why would people be laughing at you if I’m dressed shabbily?”
At that question, Josephine’s face blazed hotter. Shooting virtual-novel.net a glare, virtual-novel.net snapped, “I’ve already asked to be your girlfriend in public, so people will naturally take me at my word. Aren’t you just embarrassing me if you dress shabbily? Okay, this matter is now closed. I’m going to the washroom, so wait for me here.”
She hurriedly left after making up an excuse.
