Chapter 393 A Suit for My Client
Why did I flatter myself by assuming that she’s prepared a gift for me? As a result, he answered in embarrassment, “That’s not bad.”
Olivia noticed his smile, which was curved downward, so she had to stop herself from laughing. Nevertheless, she commented, “However, that client has a similar figure as yours. Why don’t you try it too?”
Eugene inhaled deeply and stopped thinking much about his situation. Instead, he answered with a disinterested voice, “I better not. It’s best to let your client wear it himself. Even if we have similar figures, I’m sure there must be differences somewhere.”
With an unhappy expression, she touched her chin with her hand and had an unsatisfied gaze while looking at him and appearing sorry for herself.
He frowned deeply. “W-What’s up with you? I just figured since this belongs to someone else after all—”
Before he could complete his sentence, she interrupted him. “The client isn’t cooperative.”
Eugene looked up abruptly. “Huh?”
Olivia glared. “Forget it if you don’t want to try it! Don’t come running to me if it doesn’t fit later!” She left after saying that.
Eugene would be daft if he still couldn’t understand the current situation. He took a few steps forward and held onto Olivia, who wasn’t planning on leaving anyway. “W-What’s your client’s last name?”
His eyes shone with anticipation when he stared at her because he was afraid of misunderstanding her once again.
Then, she answered him softly, “His name is Eugene and his last name is Nolan!”
Eugene was simultaneously frustrated and tickled because he was exasperated that she was never clear about the situation.
Naturally, he was mostly happy and excited, so he kept his head bowed to mask his smile as he did not want to be led by the nose.
However, it was undeniable that at that instant, he was almost dizzy with happiness.
Eugene couldn’t hold his feelings back and wrapped his arms around Olivia. “Thank you, Olivia.”
Upon noticing how happy he was, she was extremely happy. “So, are you trying it on this time?”
He glared. “Why didn’t you make yourself clear?”
Nevertheless, Olivia answered in innocence. “Well, you didn’t ask!”
“Why would I ask when you claim that it’s for a client?”
“Do you think I’d ask you to try on a client’s suit?”
Eugene was rendered speechless when he heard that. If I’m being honest, I’m not confident enough because deep down in my heart, I won’t dare to hope for her to fall in love with me like how I am with her. I’m always under the impression that she only agreed to be my girlfriend after I have pestered her for such a long time. Besides, her somber face didn’t seem like she was joking at all.
I also don’t want to pressure her as well. Wouldn’t I be forcing her to present me with a gift if I were to claim that I’m the one who commissioned the suit? She should take the initiative if it’s a present for me. How could I possibly ask for a gift for myself? My pride wouldn’t allow that!
However, Olivia never minded and instead nudged him gently. “Go ahead and try it on. I’ll make some adjustments if it needs altering!”
Eugene mumbled an acknowledgement while making his way into the changing room with the suit in his hands.
He emerged swiftly again.
He was backlit by the sunlight as he made his way into the room, so it looked like he was glowing in a golden hue. Furthermore, his height and lanky legs made him look like a model bringing life to the suit.
Olivia’s eyes gleamed with amazement. I knew that Eugene would look good in this suit, but I did not expect that he would look so handsome! He is beyond cool and handsome!
She had used navy blue for the particular suit because it looked less gloomy than his usual black while still maintaining his formality. On the other hand, Eugene’s figure had the golden proportion—his shoulders were broad and they tapered to a narrow waist. Furthermore, he had long, strong legs, so she had tailored the suit to accentuate his figure while making him look slightly slimmer.
In comparison, he looked younger than the aura of what his usual business suits gave him. In addition to that, it was entirely hand sewn, so there were minor changes at the collar, sleeves and waist area that helped to show his perfect figure off. “My boyfriend is so handsome!”
Eugene grinned from ear to ear because he had already checked his reflection in the changing room’s mirror. Therefore, he knew the effects that the suit had on his body.
He did not think that it looked good because it was designed by Olivia, but, on the contrary, her designs were undoubtedly refreshing and original while complimenting his temperament—that was most probably the reason he liked the suit so much.
