The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 945

Only the top of the line clothes were sold on the top floor. Only customers with VIP cards of the department store were allowed to enter. Sheryl was rather surprised when she entered that section, as she had never been there before.

"What's the matter?" Charles wasn't sure if the expression on Sheryl's face was a good or bad one.

"Well, nothing." Shaking her head slightly, Sheryl added, "I was just thinking about how different the world of the rich is from ours."

With memories of going shopping with Isla on Sheryl's mind, she remembered them wondering what was on the mysterious top floor of the department store. Now, she finally found out.

"The card I applied for is for you." Putting the VIP card in Sheryl's hand, he said, "I was supposed to give it to you three years ago. I didn't expect to have to wait until now."

The words made Sheryl's emotions bubble up and she couldn't bear them any longer as she said, "Charles, I will never leave you anymore."

"I know." He held her hand and squeezed affectionately. "Even if you tried, I wouldn't let you go.

As he held Sheryl's hand, he continued, "The clothing stores here on the top floor are all high-end, for high status customers. There's a brand here that has a style that suits you, I think. Why don't we take a look?"

"Sounds good. Let's go, I'm all yours." While Charles was familiar with the place and how to get from store to store, Sheryl was a first-timer. She found that the top floor was actually a mini-sized shopping mall, selling men's, women's, and even kids' clothes. Sheryl thought about buying some for the two kids.

Arriving at the store Charles mentioned, Sheryl raised her brows at the very luxurious brand. Never did she imagine that she would be shopping at such a place.

Standing by the door, Charles tried to lead her inside but Sheryl felt timid and took a step back. Taking Charles' hand subtly, she whispered, "Charles, why don't we go somewhere else? The clothes here are extremely expensive, aren't they?"

Though Sheryl was born into the Zhao family, she was raised in rather tough conditions and was used to keeping such luxuries at an arm's length.

Charles, however, disagreed and insisted on going and having a look anyway.

Left with no choice, Sheryl followed him inside.

Without a moment's thought, Charles picked over ten sets of outfits at astonishing speed. It was clear that he was used to that kind of shopping. He had Sheryl try them all one by one.

Although reluctant, Sheryl didn't want to upset Charles so she did what he asked and tried the outfits on. Each time she showed him what she tried on, she received much praise from Charles, save for a single red dress. While Sheryl thought it looked great, Charles thought otherwise.

"Sir, this one is a limited edition in our line. See how pretty your wife looks in it! It suits her figure and complexion so well, how can it not look good?" With a confused expression, the salesperson tried to reason with Charles.

As she looked at herself in the mirror, Sheryl was rather satisfied with the dress. Turning around, she said to Charles, "It does look great, doesn't it? Why don't you like it?"

His face turning cold, Charles pulled Sheryl into the fitting room abruptly. "Is that even a dress? It's so tiny it's barely even a skirt. No, you're not wearing that out. Go and change."

Understanding why Charles was so against her wearing the dress, Sheryl couldn't help but start laughing. "Perhaps you think this one shows too much skin?"
