The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 3779

Chapter 3779 Tricking Heptino

Meanwhile, Gloria had zeroed in on Heptino. “Heptino, I noticed yesterday that your sleeves were getting tattered, so I made a new shirt for you. Try it on and see if it fits,” she said gently.

Heptino was slightly taken aback as he glanced at his shirt, only to realize that Gloria was right. Oh, my, there’s a hole in my right sleeve! I can’t believe I missed it!

“Thank you, Ms. Gaston!” he said sincerely while accepting the new black robe. Gloria, however, frowned at him in mock annoyance. “Haven’t I told you several times not to address me so formally?”

“Ah… T-Thank you, Gloria!” Heptino replied sheepishly, his words putting a smile back on Gloria’s face.

“That’s more like it! Well, go ahead and try it on! Let me know if you like the pattern on it too. By the way, I don’t have the best sewing skills, so I hope you don’t mind the mediocre quality.”

“W-Why would I mind?” Heptino said as he quickly put on the robe, showing off the majestic flying dragon pattern that soared from the back to the shoulders.

On top of that, Gloria had also embroidered clouds around the dragon, thus making the design even more lifelike. “The flying dragon looks so good! I love it!” Heptino shouted gleefully.

After tying the robe, he spun around on the spot, happy that it was such a good fit. Gloria instantly let out an audible sigh of relief as though she had been on tenterhooks the entire time. “I’m glad you like it! I was so worried you might find the design tacky.”

The truth, however, was that she had already asked around and knew all about Heptino’s love for dragons.

“You’re an adult, for goodness’ sake. How are you still so bad at taking care of yourself? You didn’t even realize your clothes were torn! I guess it’s time to find you a wife,” Gloria teased.

“I’m not interested in starting a family yet, Gloria!” Heptino replied, looking somewhat embarrassed. “Besides, if my clothes are torn again, I’ll just get you to make me new ones.”

“Sure. I’ll be in charge of making your clothes from now on!” Gloria said with utmost sincerity. “It’s a deal, then!”
