Emanuele looked at the surprise in Isabe’s eyes and couldn’t help but curve his lips. To be honest, not only did he buy this jewelry store, but the entire shopping mall here belonged to him. However, telling Isabe all this might only cause her more rm.
After purchasing the jewelry, Emanuele took Isabe to buy several sets of clothes.
“Emanuele, you don’t need to buy me clothes anymore. I have too many clothes in my closet that I can’t even wear them all.”
“It’s different,” Emanuele kissed Isabe’s cheek. “The ones you bought before have been around for so long, they’ve already be outdated. Fashion styles change every year, so you must get new clothes every year.”
“Isn’t that too wasteful?” Isabe used to cherish clothes when she didn’t have money, wearing the same piece for years because she couldn’t afford new ones. Even after she started working and had some money, she wouldn’t casually buy clothes because she still needed to save money.
But she never thought that now, being with Emanuele, he could easily buy her so much jewelry and so many clothes.
At this moment, they arrived at a store. Emanuele sat on the side, signaling the shop assistant to pick out clothes suitable for Isabe to try on.
The shop assistant also knew Emanuele and warmly greeted Isabe. “Mrs. Lombardi, I think your figure is perfect for these figure-hugging clothes.” She assessed Isabe’s figure and handed her several pieces of clothing to try on.
Isabe looked at the clothes, the styles seemed nice, so she decided to give them a try. She walked into the fitting room to try on the clothes.
Isabe emerged wearing a light blue dress, and Emanuele, seeing her in this outfit, suddenly felt his eyes light up. “Darling, you look amazing, like a mermaid princess.”
“Thank you,” Isabe said with a smile.
She then tried on a second outfit, a white shirt paired with a warm orange pencil skirt. The top was loose-fitting, but the skirt hugged her waist, entuating her slender figure.
Isabe walked out, and Emanuele apuded. “You look stunning, darling.”
Afterwards, Isabe tried on the remaining dresses one by one. Each time she came out for Emanuele to see, she received a variety ofpliments, leaving her somewhat helpless.
“Emanuele, why do you only know how to praise? Do you think everything I wear looks good?” Isabe asked.
“Exactly, Isabe, forgive me, but you would look good even if you werepletely naked,” Emanuele said, running his fingers through her slightly disheveled hair, tucking it behind her ear.
Isabe originally found Emanuele’s words quite pleasant, rare praise from him, but upon hearing thest sentence, she felt an urge to p the man. Fortunately, he said it in her ear, out of earshot of others. Nevertheless, such an embarrassing remark made Isabe’s cheeks flush.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
In the end, Emanuele paid for all the clothes Isabe tried on.
Later, Emanuele took Isabe to buy other styles of clothes and shoes. By evening, she noticed their SUV was filled with things, almost all of which Emanuele had bought for her.
It had to be said, after spending the day outside, Isabe felt much better.
She originally thought they would return home for dinner, but Emanuele drove directly to an Italian restaurant.
“It’s your favorite,” Emanuele said, smiling at Isabe. The dim light of the streemp fell on Emanuele’s face, which usually looked especially stern, but now, in this soft light, he seemed particrly gentle.
Especially his eyes, with a gentle shine in the light, made Isabe feel as though she could drown in them.
Is this what it feels like to be loved?
This man was terrifying and cruel to others, but to her, he was so gentle.
He got out of the car and walked over to her side, opening the passenger door for Isabe.
Then, he took Isabe’s hand and led her into the restaurant.
“I thought we would have dinner at the apartment,” Isabe said to Emanuele.
“I wanted us to enjoy some time alone today. Don’t you like it?”
“No, no, I do like it. Thank you, Emanuele.”
Isabe truly appreciated Emanuele; she felt he had pulled her out, and that’s why she was feeling so much better now. If it had been up to her, she probably wouldn’t have wanted to go out, and the thought of going out hadn’t crossed her mind in a long time.
She had been staying in the apartment, and when she felt down, she didn’t want to go out even more. It wasn’t until today, that Emanuele forcefully took her out, letting her experience the outside world, that Isabe realized how good it actually was outside. It was her resistance to engage with the external world that led her to fear going out.
Now, being pulled out by Emanuele and feeling the fresh air around her, Isabe found her mood significantly improved. She was very grateful to Emanuele; at least, everything that happened today was specially arranged by him for her.
Seeing the renewed spark in Isabe’s eyes, like a small me, though not as strong as before, it still eased Emanuele’s heart a little. He didn’t want to see Isabe immersed in sadness anymore.
Since the things they had lost were already gone, it was a reminder for them to live well from now on. He was just as saddened, but having experienced so many sorrowful things since childhood, Emanuele had already developed a strong heart; even if faced with more sadness, he could quickly stabilize himself.
But Isabe was different. Although she had faced many difficulties in the past, they were nothingpared to what she was going through now. That’s why she was so upset, and Emanuele hoped she could ovee it, just as she had in the past, and live a cheerful, positive, and healthy life.
Seeing Isabe finally feeling happy today, Emanuele smiled. “Okay, let’s go home after dinner.”
“No, after dinner, I want to go shopping with you,” Isabe said.
Emanuele was surprised by Isabe’s high spirits, which caught him off guard. “Alright, do you need anything else? Feel free to tell me, there’s no need to be polite.”
“I won’t be polite with you, Emanuele.” However, Isabe wanted to buy something for Emanuele. After buying so much today, all of which was for her, she felt Emanuele deserved something too.
After dinner, Emanuele drove Isabe to a shopping mall. This time, Isabe went to a store selling men’s clothing.
Emanuele looked at Isabe. “Isabe, what are you…”
“You’ve already bought me so many things today; now it’s my turn to buy for you.”
