Olivia did not smile but stared straight at him instead. According to psychology, staring at someone’s forehead would create a sense of deterrence that would make the other party feel under pressure. Those with a weak mentality would automatically avoid meeting the other person’s gaze in under ten seconds.
However, it was unfortunate that Christoff did not fall into that category. He was a man with tons of blood on his hands, so how could just anyone become his opponent? Indeed, he was not the slightest bit bothered by her gaze and even teased her, “Aren’t you afraid that Eugene might get jealous if you keep staring at me like that?”
Olivia’s gaze remained cold as ice while she replied, “I’m trying to see if you’re really looking to order a custom-designed suit, or whether you’re here to cause trouble!”
Then, his series of laughter rang out again. The gaze he pinned on Olivia resembled the gaze of a wolf eyeing its prey. “Of course, I’m here for a custom-designed suit. Alright, I admit. I’ve misunderstood your words. Just design me a suit that fits my temperament. Let your creative juices run wild.” He gave in eventually.
Taking a deep breath, Olivia tried to suppress the gross feeling inside her. It was impossible for Christoff to appear in Summer City for no reason. He must’ve come here for Eugene.
Since she wanted to get this man out of her store as soon as possible, she had no choice but to agree. “What do you have in mind? A two- piece?”
“Sure,” Christoff responded casually. In fact, the intention of his visit was not to custom order anything, but it was mainly because he heard that Eugene extremely doted on his girlfriend. That was why he came over after finding out that she owned a clothing store. However, he did not expect her to be so beautiful yet bold and intriguing.
“Mr. Stevenson, can you stand up for a moment so that I can have a look at your figure?” Olivia requested. Christoff cooperated with her and stood up before turning a full circle. “How’s that?”
She responded, “That’s all.” Since he did not receive the compliment he expected, he felt disappointed and sat down in his seat. Subsequently, he asked persistently, “What can you tell just by looking?”
“What do you want me to see?” Her gaze was cold as she stared at him with such fierce eyes that it seemed like she would explode in anger at any moment.
Christoff smiled. “See, you’re overthinking again. I mean, don’t you need a measuring tape?” Olivia replied, “I’m only designing a suit for you. It’s not the time to measure yet.” As if he had learned something new, he expressed, “Oh, I see.”
Then, she inquired, “What color do you prefer?” “Anything with a dark tone,” he answered. After acknowledging that, Olivia stopped asking any more questions and picked up a pen to start designing. Occasionally, she picked up an eraser to fine-tune her drawing before altering it..
Meanwhile, Christoff stopped making inappropriate comments and stared fixedly at her. No wonder they say women are most beautiful when they’re focused on doing something. Look at her lowered eyes that are focused on the paper and her slender, fair fingers deftly drawing on the paper. She even looked attractive when she was angry earlier.
Ha.I’m out for revenge, so any kind of damage I can inflict on him is considered one. Since Eugene likes this woman so much, I’ll make her mine. Wouldn’t that hurt him even more than killing him?
His lips curled into a smile as he continued to look at her. Yet, he did not expect her to suddenly look up at him. He was instantly stunned as if she had seen through his innermost thoughts. “What’s the matter?”
Olivia replied, “I’ve done a rough sketch. Take a look and see if you like this design.”
Then, he received the sketch she had drawn. In fact, he knew nothing about fashion design and every suit looked the same to him. Therefore, he set the sketch down after a quick look. “Not bad. Just continue with this design.”
While pointing at the design, Olivia elaborated, “You have an unruly temperament, and although you prefer a darker tone, I personally think that dull colors do not suit you, so I’m planning to use blue for your suit. The muscles on your upper chest are very obvious, which means you have a strong build, and it is more fitting to wear a suit that fits around your body.
So, I have made some adjustments here to fit your figure. A double-button design will ensure that it won’t be too tight when you’re wearing it, and I’ve made some innovative designs at the cuffs, pockets, and some other places. Also, I’l use diamonds to decorate the cuffs because it’ll better express your temperament that way.”
