No One But You novel Chapter 13

I turned and walked away in the shocked eyes of the chairman and Daniel.

When I was out of the restaurant door, Calvin followed up.

His mischievous laugh hovered above me. "Did he really assault me?"

"Why do you think I hit him?" I answered him calmly.

He said nothing more.

He knew the relationship between Daniel and me but he did not reveal that.

I kept silent too. It's fun to play games with smart people.

I got on the car, thinking we would go back to company, but he said to the driver, “S-TANG."

S-TANG was the shopping mall I met him and Elena. Why were we going there?

The driver drove the car to S-TANG and he got off first.

I was sleepy after the dinner and nod off in my seat.

He pulled the door open and pulled me down.

I was stunned and asked him, “Why?"

He let go of me and moved forward first, and I had to trot after him.

I followed him into the famous store of the day.

He tilted his head on the dress in the center of the window and said to the clerk, "Give her this dress to try on."

The clerk immediately went get it. Yesterday Calvin came and bought a same dress to Elena.

The clerk went to get the skirts. There were only two of them, free size.

"Will you buy it for me?"

"Don’t you have the card?" He half smiled.

I forgot all about it and quickly gave it back to him. "I haven't been paid yet and I don't want an advance."

"It's a gift for you." He put the card away. "Don't dress too shabby tonight."

I knew I was poor, and I liked this dress.

Although Elena also had one, it didn’t matter. There were only two in the whole city only. I usually wore a T-shirt, which was the same with women in the vegetable market.

The clerk had already brought the skirt to me respectfully, “Miss, have a try."

She followed me, standing on tiptoe against the door frame as I walked into it.

I was taller than her without high heels. I didn't need her to block for me.

After changing my clothes and coming out, I stood looking at myself in the mirror.

It was true that clothes make the man.

My vision was not bad. I looked better than Elena in it.

The dark khaki satin fabric with the coffee-colored edges perfectly delineated my figure.

Luckily, I was on the early pregnancy, so there was nothing changed in my figure.

I pulled my hair back and was pleased with myself in the mirror.

There was a kind of arrogance.

Calvin's figure suddenly appeared in the mirror. He stood behind me. He was taller than me.

"Not bad. Do you have any earrings?"

When I was about to say I had, he said, "Well, go and buy it now. Yours must be a bargain."

Well, I thanked him.

It was for me, of course I would take it.

He bought me the dress, new heels, sparkling diamond earrings, and a handbag.

I didn't even say thank you. I was arrogant to accept them.

He looked at me strangely. "You are different from those women. People always say thank you when they receive my presents. But you didn’t.”

"If you want to hear it." I said but didn't want to thank him.
