Wearing a pair of beige ankle boots with heels about ten centimeters tall, Molly nervously clutched Eric's arm for support. Her lips were set in a pout as she threw Eric a disapproving look.

A self-satisfied smirk spread on Eric's face as Molly tightened her grip on his arms. "Don't you think this pair of boots match with this dress perfectly?" he asked Molly smugly.

There's no doubt that Eric has excellent taste in women's apparel. The beige dress he chose matched perfectly with the ankle boots. Looking at herself in the mirror, Molly couldn't help but feel a boost in her morale. She was shocked to see how attractive and feminine she looked in the dress.

The simple cut of the dress accentuated her femininity and made her look pure and innocent at the same time.

For a moment she stood staring at her reflection in wonderment. Now she understood the saying,"clothes make the woman". She flushed as she took in her chic reflection in the mirror. Only her hair seemed to need attention, she thought.

Just as the thought passed her mind, Eric appeared with a delicately crafted flower hairpin. With sure movements, he picked up her hair and coiled it up in a perfect bun at the nape of her neck and secured it with the pin. The effect of the simple change of her hairstyle was spectacular. She looked like a totally different person from the one who came to the shop just minutes ago.

The sales assistants in the store looked at the couple with approval. Besides observing her transformation, they all looked at Eric with adoration.

Molly took one last look at herself in the mirror and smiled. Every woman wants to look beautiful and she is no exception.

Behind her, Eric smiled at Molly's reflection. He knew that Molly was happy with her transformation. "A girl will doll herself up for him who loves her," he whispered behind her ear.

"You're dressing up for me today, huh?"

Turning around, Molly glared at Eric. She didn't realize he was standing so close to her. His eyes were so deep as it met her glare. For a moment she was mesmerized and her heart started beating fast.

Looking at Molly's flustered look, Eric frowned slightly. It was clearly a joke, but Molly's reaction surprised him. But he didn't have time to dwell on that.

"In fact," Eric continued with a twinkle in his eye,"In fact, I chose this high-heeled shoes with only one motive… I want you to keep holding on to me."

He continued, smiling arrogantly. "If only for today, I want you to rely on me completely. Stop trying to act invincible and accept my support graciously."

Releasing Molly's arm suddenly, he said,"Look, it's hard to stand let alone walk without my support, right?"

Molly teetered and almost fell. She clutched Eric's arm desperately to steady herself.

Molly threw Eric an angry look. She wanted to kick him as she saw the smirk on his face. She tightened her grip on his arm and smiled secretly when she saw him wince a little.
