Chapter 640
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
There was a knock on the door. It was the person delivering the clothes.
Silas sent over a total of eight sets of clothes. They came in various colors and looked quite stylish.
Ian frowned and reluctantly picked out a green shirt from inside.
After putting it on, he looked at himself in the mirror.
The man in the mirror was tall and slender. Even the tacky color on him added an air of elegance. A few buttons on his collar were undone, revealing his delicate collarbones. His seductive qualities became more noticeable.
Along with the clothes came a fashion stylist.
âOh my god!â Jamie, who was the stylist, said. He gasped, covering his mouth and looking at Ian in astonishment. âHow could the Creator make someone as perfect as you? This shirt is absolutely perfect for you.â
Jamie picked out a pair of white trousers and handed them over, saying, âThe lower half goes with this.â
Ian did not think that he was so remarkable. He thought, âI still look the same as before. However, since the stylist said so, I guess it must be a good choice!
He walked into the bathroom and changed into the white trousers.
The fresh color and simple lines elevated his demeanor a few notches, making him look youthful and full of vitality.
âPerfect!â Jamie said as he applauded. âWomen will surely be enchanted by you when they see you.
They will fall at your feet in admiration.â
âMr. Walter, Mr. Phil has already arranged everything,â Jamie said. âIâm staying not far from here. If you have any styling needs, call me anytime.â With that, Jamie left with the remaining clothes.
Kelly returned at eight oâclock in the evening. She stood at the door, feeling hesitant and unsure about how to face lan..
She thought, âHeâs not easy to please! Are compliments really useful?â
Kelly was quite skeptical. Because she felt uneasy, she continued to pester Elena. She texted, [Elena, Iâm so scared. What should I compliment him on?]
Elena texted impatiently, [Play it by ear. Be brave. Go for it!]
Kelly texted, [Alrighty.]
Kelly encouraged herself, took a deep breath, and suddenly opened the door.
The moment she saw Ian, she was utterly stunned!
She thought, âOh golly. Does this chive come to life?â
She stuttered, âMr. Walter, whâwhy are you dressed like this?â In her impression, lan was very lowâkey and composed. His style of dressing was basically limited to three colors, namely gray, white, and black.
She thought, âWhatâs wrong with him today? Is he having a moment of madness, wearing such a bright green shirt!â
Ianâs expression was cold. He looked calm and steady, but the back of his ears were flushed.
He was getting extremely nervous. He thought, âCan this outfit really attract Kelly?â
Kelly immediately regretted what she had said.
She thought, âJeez, why did I ask him like that? It sounds like Iâm questioning his taste. No. Iâve got to rectify the situation!â
There was a rapid change in Kellyâs thoughts. Soon, she remembered the compliment that Elena had taught her. She immediately made a complete change of attitude and smiled at Ian, saying, âMr. Walter, your outfit today is so unique and looks really good.â
Ian was at a loss for words.
He thought, âReally? She likes it!
Ian lowered his gaze to hide the excitement in his eyes. His ten fingers trembled slightly, as if dancing happily.
He thought, âUncle Silas is right. Kelly is completely attracted to me!â
Ian tried his best to look calm and asked in a low voice, âHmm? Whatâs so special about it?â
âThe color is special,â Kelly said. She racked her brain and thought hard for at long while before she finally identified a point. âThis color looks like new grass after the rain, exuding a refreshing aroma that makes one want to pounce on it and take a deep sniff.â
Ian was about to explode with joy! He thought, âOh my god. She actually wants to pounce on me and sniff me deeply!â
When Ian realized this, every pore on his body was screaming frantically, âCome and pounce on him!
Come and sniff him!â
âQuick!â Ian thought.
Kelly had been secretly observing Ianâs expression. She thought, âHe seems to be happy! In that case, compliments do work.â
Encouraged by the positive response, Kelly became more enthusiastic. She leaned in to compliment lan, saying, âMr. Walter, the fabric of your clothing looks very unique and smooth. Is it made of silk?â
Ian glanced at her. His eyes were deep, like a wild beast that was about to devour someone. âIâm not sure,â he said. âDo you want to touch it?â
âTouch it?â Kelly said. She thought, âI donât want to.â
Kelly was shocked. She quickly shook her head, saying, âNo. No. No. I donât want to touch it.â
Upon hearing her response, Ianâs gaze turned cold, and a chilling atmosphere descended.
Kelly was very sharp. She immediately sensed it and quickly explained her reason for not touching it.
âIâm afraid of damaging it,â she said. âThis fabric looks expensive.â
After saying that, she still felt that her explanation was not sufficiently convincing. She added, âThis shirt is too beautiful. Iâm clumsy. Iâm afraid I might snag or wrinkle it, which wouldnât be good.â
Ian thought, âI see. So thatâs the reason.
Ianâs heart was filled with joy again. He thought, âShe cherishes and loves it, which is why she didnât want to touch it hastily.â
âNo problem,â Ian said as he lifted his eyelids, as if granting Kelly permission. âYou can gently touch it.â
Kelly was left speechless.
She thought, âIâm speechless⦠When I touch it, I will inevitably touch his body, and I really donât want any more physical contact with Ian. But if I donât touch it, itâll make my previous compliments seem insincere. Whatâs the point of all that compliments if I donât touch it?â
In resignation, Kelly had no choice but to extend her right index finger and quickly touch Ianâs forearm before quickly withdrawing it.
It was like a dragonflyâs touch on the waterâs surface, but it felt as if she had touched the core of Ianâs heart, causing his entire body to stiffen.
âThe material is really good,â Kelly said with a smile.
After all the compliments, Ian did not seem to be upset with Kelly anymore. She thought, âCan I bring up Brenda now, asking him to be the bigger person, letting Brenda off the hook and not holding it against her?â
Kelly thought for a moment. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Ianâs face turn red and his body stiffen. She was not sure if he was angry or if something else was going on.
In any case, he looked very strange.
The courage in Kellyâs heart disappeared. and she did not dare to bring it up.
She thought, âIt seems that I didnât praise him enough. Iâve got to try harder next time!â
Ian did not know why he ended up on the balcony. He called his uncle.
âHowâs the effect?â Silas asked as he squinted.
Ian replied, âVery good. She said she wanted to pounce on me and sniff me.â
âDamn!â Silas said, feeling astonished. âThatâs awesome! The effect is so good. It canât be because of a set of clothes. She must have been interested in you before.â
Ian agreed. He said, âYep. She⦠she even touched me.â
âHahaha.â Silas laughed. âShe must have been bewitched by you. Keep up the good work. You must make her fall head over heels for you.â
On the other side, Kelly sent a message to Elena. [Help. I complimented him, but he went to the balcony. What should I do?]
Elena was in a drowsy state, but she was woken up by Kelly. She replied, [What was his reaction?]
Kelly repeated the compliments that she had given to Ian.
Elena nodded and texted, [This is a good result, but itâs not intense enough. You should continue complimenting him. Do it for a few more days. Alsoâ¦]
Her tone suddenly became serious.
Kelly felt a surge of anxiety. She immediately asked, [What else?]
Elena gritted her teeth and texted, [If you disturb me again while Iâm sleeping, Iâll twist your head off!]
