I Loved You in the Dark Until Someone Loved Me in the Light novel Chapter 57

It felt a bit awkward.

Miles could hear her hesitation and chuckled warmly. "Give it some time, you'll get used to it."

During dinner, they mostly discussed medicine. The conversation flowed effortlessly, with many of their ideas aligning perfectly.

As dinner wrapped up, Miles seemed reluctant for it to end. "It's been a long time since I've had such a great conversation with you."

"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Gillian smiled, then asked, "Do you know any good boutique dress shops? I need to rent a gown."

She needed something appropriately formal for the Sterling family's banquet.

During her many years in the Foster family, she had never owned a formal gown. Since York refused to acknowledge her publicly, he never brought her to major galas, so she had no need for one.

"I do know one, and it's actually right around the corner. Want to head over and take a look now?"

It was getting late. Gillian asked, "Are they still open?"

"With the Harvest Gala coming up, a lot of people are running errands. They stay open late."

When they arrived, the shop was indeed bustling with people trying on gowns.

The store offered both rentals and purchases.

"Mr. Stanton, is this your girlfriend?" the manager asked with a bright smile.

Miles replied like a perfect gentleman, "A friend. She's attending an elder's birthday banquet. Do you have any recommendations?"

The manager led them to the second floor.

It was quite busy upstairs as well. The styles here were more elegant and mature.

"Take your time looking around." The manager smiled at Gillian. "You have such gorgeous features and a stunning figure. You'd look beautiful in anything."

Miles stepped out to take a phone call. As Gillian was browsing, Valery called again.
