Chapter 470

Hearing this, Eliana suddenly stopped in her tracks and a bitter smile appeared on her face.

She had thought she was psychologically strong now and wouldn’t be affected by any harsh words.

However, it turned out she was wrong. Those words still hurt her deeply.

At this moment, a man’s voice suddenly interrupted the conversation of the shop assistants.

“You two, pack up all the latest womenswear in the shop.”

It was Maurice.

Eliana, who was still in the fitting room, was stunned.

Meanwhile, outside the fitting room, the shop assistants were shocked when they heard what Maurice

just said. One of them asked, “Mr. Moran… Do you want to buy them all?”

Maurice looked coldly at the woman and said dryly, “Wasn’t I clear enough just now?”

At this moment, the two shop assistants’ eyes lit up with excitement. They quickly nodded and said,

“Okay, Mr. Moran! What size do you want them?”

“90, 61, 84,” Maurice replied calmly.

From inside the fitting room, Eliana heard clearly what Maurice had just said.

She was utterly stunned. How on earth did he know her body size?

Even if they slept together before, that didn’t explain how he knew her measurements.

Eliana blushed.

Meanwhile, the shop assistants didn’t know how to handle such a big order, so they called the shop

manager.

“Hello, Mr. Moran,” the manager greeted Maurice, bowing respectfully.

However, Maurice didn’t care about the greetings. He frowned and urged, “Go get the clothes packed.”

“Okay! We will get them ready for you right away. Please be patient.”

Then, the manager turned to the shop assistants and ordered, “Hurry up.”

Suddenly, Maurice’s voice rang again. “Wait!” He looked indifferently at the three people in front of him

and said coldly to the shop assistants, “After this, you two can leave this store.”

“Sir, I beg your pardon?” the shop assistants asked in confusion. They looked at each other, wondering

what was going on.

At this moment, the manager’s face changed. Of course, she too was confused. She looked at Maurice

and asked tentatively, “Mr. Moran, do you mean…”

“They are fired,” Maurice said in a domineering tone.

A look of shock appeared on the shop assistants’ faces when they heard what Maurice just said.

“Mr… Mr. Moran… I…”

One of the shop assistants tried to explain, but the manager immediately stopped her.

“Shut up! I’ve told you time and again to mind the way you treat the customers in this store. Now, go

pack the clothes.”

The shop assistants’ faces turned pale in an instant.

Maurice looked at them with a cold expression. The two shop assistants had no other choice but to go

get the clothes Maurice wanted. After they all left, he gently knocked on the door of the fitting room.

“They are gone now. What are you still doing in there?”

Hearing Maurice’s words, Eliana took a deep breath and finally opened the door.

When she came out of the fitting room, Maurice seemed to be a little angry.

“You are always proud in front of me, but why didn’t you say anything when those women humiliated

you just now?” Maurice asked with a frown.

Eliana rolled her eyes and said casually, “What should I say? I’ve heard such words so many times that

I’m used to them.”

Indeed, since she met Maurice, she has often been confronted with jealousy and contempt from others.

Actually she’d already received comments way worse than these.

If she retorted every time people picked on her, she would be exhausted.

Maurice was stunned when he heard what she said and he became even more furious.

He looked at the dress she wore and frowned.

Noting the expression on his face, Eliana said self-deprecatingly, “What? You also think the dress is

cheap?”

At this moment, Maurice shifted his gaze back to Eliana’s face. Suddenly, he grabbed her hand and

pulled her against him. He then whispered in her ear, “It’s not cheap at all. You look beautiful no matter

what you’re wearing.”

Maurice’s sweet words made Eliana’s heart beat faster. She stared into Maurice’s extremely serious

eyes, and her heart beat even faster.

“I… I know!” she stammered.

Minutes ago, the atmosphere between the two of them was very tense. However, at this moment,

Eliana felt a little guilty for what she had done to Maurice.

Forget it! She sighed in her heart.

She couldn’t help but feel indebted to Maurice. After all, he had just saved her from embarrassment

and also bought her a lot of clothes. She needed to give him something in return.

With mixed feelings of guilt and gratitude, Eliana walked between different shelves in the store in

search of a gift for Maurice. After browsing the store for a while, she decided on a brown tie for

Maurice.

Maurice, who was standing no far away, watched her picking a tie for him, and a smile flashed across

on his face.

After they finished shopping, they brought everything to the checkout to pay the bill.

As Eliana pulled out the tie, she seriously said, “Hello, I’ll pay for this tie.”

The shop assistant paused for a moment when he heard what Eliana just said. Then, he said, “Okay,

ma’am. This tie costs 13, 000 dollars.”

Eliana took a deep breath when she heard the price of the tie.

13, 000 for a single tie? It was too expensive!

She wanted to return the tie.

“What’s wrong?”

Maurice’s cold voice suddenly sounded and his intense gaze landed on her. Under his cold stare,

Eliana immediately gave up the idea.

If she dared to return the tie, he might fly into a rage instantly!

It was all her fault. Why did she choose such an expensive tie for him?

She had no choice but to pay for it now. Gritting her teeth, she handed her credit card to the cashier.

“Okay. But… Can I pay in installments?”
