The assistant was confused by Nicole's question, but when he saw the sincere confusion on Nicole's face, he restrained his disdain.
Perhaps, this woman just didn't know what he meant.
He had prejudicial comments on her. Now that she was here with Jacob, she must know something about it. However, he didn't expect her to be so simple or stupid.
Of course, the assistant was not so stupid as to criticize Jacob's woman. He just despised her in his heart.
On the face, he explained kindly, You just need to dress up a bit. After all, there are many outsiders. "
Nicole's next words surprised him more.
"I... Can I refuse? "
The assistant tried to control his expression and asked, "Miss Du, why don't you want to attend? Is there any inconvenience?"
Nicole twitched her mouth, "no, it's not like that. I just don't want to go. It's so embarrassing to be surrounded by so many people."
The assistant was rendered speechless.
Although he did only see Jacob bring few women with him to the events, if someone else got such a good opportunity to be Jacob's female companion, they would have been pleased.
Unlike Nicole, who seemed to be a little upset rather than feel honored?
He was just one of Jacob's assistants at work and he seldom got involved in his private life. Therefore, he didn't know how the relationship between Jacob and Nicole and how Jacob treated Nicole.
Originally, he just thought Nicole as a normal material girl, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that he should change his mind.
"Miss Du, if you really don't want to go, I will report it to Mr Jacob."
Nicole frowned and stopped the assistant when he was about to leave. "Forget it. I'd better go. If I say I won't go, I'm afraid that Jacob will be angry again."
The assistant: "..."
"Excuse me. Are you busy now?" Nicole asked tentatively.
The assistant answered honestly, "I'm not busy at the moment. Mrs. Du, is there anything I can do for you?"
Nicole was shy and scratched her head. "I want you to help me dress up. I don't know how to dress up since I have never been to that kind of party."
The assistant was totally speechless. With a helpless smile on his serious face, he said, "okay."
"Thank you!"
Nicole took the assistant to the bedroom, opened the wardrobe and asked he to choose clothes for her.
"Go and try on these and this one. Let's see which one is better." The assistant selected two long skirts, one with a off collar and the other with a V-neck.
Nicole got changed in the bathroom obediently.
Standing in front of the closet of the bedroom, the assistant suddenly realized that if this scene was seen by his boss, Jacob, Jacob would have punched him in the face.
If it was other women, the assistant would not help her without any vigilance.
But he didn't know why. When he faced Nicole, although he thought this girl was stupid, he did not dislike her. Instead, he had a feeling to take her as a sister.
'How dare you treat Jacob's woman as your sister! You're dying!' the assistant thought angrily!
"You can just wear like this. And then you can tidy up your hair and make up yourself." the assistant said. Looking at the confused expression on Nicole's face, he gnashed his teeth and said, "don't tell me you can't do these either."
This time, Nicole noticed the disdain herself.
She quickly said, "I can do makeup, light makeup, like drawing eyebrows and lipstick, is that ok?"
The assistant: "..."
"Well, I guess that the hotel is also equipped with cosmetics. I... I didn't bring them myself. " Nicole felt wronged. She didn't know that Jacob would take her out for a trip. She had already set out with her ID card, and she hadn't even brought any facial cleanser.
The assistant touched his forehead, "take a seat. I'll call a makeup artist for you."
Then he picked up the phone and dialed. Within half an hour, a makeup artist with a cosmetic case came.
"Make up for her tonight, a dinner party." The assistant ordered.
Nicole immediately added, "don't wear too much make-up. My face doesn't suit heavy makeup. It will look very strange."
The assistant couldn't help but chuckle. He nodded to the makeup artist and said, "all right. Just listen to her."
Nicole did not know what the assistant was laughing at. But she was telling the truth. She had to attend a dancing party at college when she was still a college student. Because she did not know how to make up, she had to go to a place where was selling cosmetics. A heavy makeup almost made her faint.
However, the technology of the small cosmetic shop in the school was obviously not comparable to this artist's. she opened the large cosmetic kit, and showed the whole cosmetic equipment and cosmetics in front of Nicole. Then she flipped her fingers and began to apply makeup on Nicole's face.
An hour later, Nicole finally finished dressing up.
With her high curled hair, Nicole's slender neck was completely exposed. A thin chain was worn around her neck, together with a girlish make-up, which blurred the line of age. People could not help wondering if the beauty in front of them was an adult.
