Only then did Roxanne return to her senses.
The sales attendant smiled and said, “I don't think that's necessary. You have the same figure as the mannequin. If you don't mind, you can just try on those clothes.”
In response, Lucian turned around to seek Roxanne's opinion as though he were seeking his wife's approval.
Seeing that, the sales attendant followed suit and waited for Roxanne's response respectfully.
Roxanne only realized what was going on seconds later. When she did, she flashed a faint smile and nodded.
The sales attendant then quickly went to fetch the clothes and ask another sales attendant to bring Lucian to the fitting room before leading Roxanne to browse the rest of the outfits in the store. As they were browsing, the sales attendant introduced all the premium suits to Roxanne and paid attention to the time Roxanne took to inspect each suit.
Soon, Lucian came walking out of the fitting room in a gray shirt and a black suit. Needless to say, he looked dashing.
Before he even checked himself out in the mirror, he went straight to Roxanne and asked, “How does this look? Does it suit me?”
At that moment, Roxanne was still browsing around with the sales attendant. She then turned around the second she heard Lucian's voice.
At that very second, Roxanne was mesmerized. Although it has been so many years, it seems like Lucian hasn't changed one bit. In fact, he looks even more attractive now. I can't take my eyes off him...
“Is it not as good as you expected it to be?” With a frown and a helpless expression on his face, Lucian turned around to ask the staff to bring him something else.
Only then did Roxanne snap back to her senses and praised with a smile, “You look even more handsome than I imagined. The clothes suit you.”
The sales attendant next to her chimed in, “Sir, the suit fits you like a glove!”
Upon getting praised by Roxanne, Lucian nodded in satisfaction and said to the staff, “Please wrap this up. I'm going to try on the others.”
In other words, he wanted to try on all the clothes the sales attendant had brought over to him.
“Are you going on a shopping spree?” Roxanne was surprised by those words. Lucian's closet is filled to the brim! Why is he buying so many?
“Didn't you say you wanted to see me in these? I'll try on all of them,” Lucian answered matter-of-factly.
Roxanne merely stared at the person in front of her blankly because she was so touched that she was at a loss for words.
The sales attendant then brought a few more suits forward and said to Lucian, “When I was browsing with your lady just now, she seemed to have an interest in these few pieces.”
“Is it not as good as you expected it to be?” With a frown and a helpless expression on his face, Lucian turned around to ask the staff to bring him something else.
Roxanne turned toward the sales attendant when she heard that. Well, those few pieces really caught my attention just now. I didn't say anything though, did I? How did the sales attendant know?
Upon noticing Roxanne's confusion, the sales attendant smiled sweetly and uttered, “You spent more time looking at these few pieces just now.”
As soon as those words fell, Lucian spoke before Roxanne could respond. He said, “You're a talented sales person!”
With that, Lucian nodded at the staff and said, “Please wrap all of these up.”
Realizing that they were dealing with a big customer, the two sales attendants were over the moon. However, they kept their emotions to themselves.
Roxanne couldn't help but feel troubled when she saw the bags of clothes.
Lucian saw the odd look on her face and asked caringly, “What's the matter? Don't you like them?”
Roxanne shook her head and approached him before whispering awkwardly, “All these clothes are beyond my budget...”
In response, Lucian lifted his brow in confusion. As soon as he figured out what she meant, he smiled and replied, “These clothes are mine. Why would I want you to pay?”
Roxanne then frowned and protested, “I want to buy them for you, though...”
“What's the matter? Don't you like them?”

GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
