Chapter 104 - I do not like free things (1/2)

Hoy was taken aback by her speech. He looked her up and down again. His secretaries were also surprised to hear her speak to their boss that way. It was a new sight for them. They looked at her plain trouser, top and shoe. They could swear her wears weren't designers. She had been about to leave the place because she could not afford to buy anything. But she called herself a customer?

”I guess it grew on me to speak to people that way” He explained. ”So just follow me”

Sara still stood there without budging. ”It didn't grow on me to listen to people who talk to me rudely.”

Hoy was stressed out already. 'What kind of girl is this?' He wondered. But he knew he had to be patient with her.

”There are better gowns you could rent inside. If you're interested, I'll show them to you” He said in a very low voice. His secretaries and the manager were cut off guard. Why was he being polite all of a sudden? It was so unlike him.

Sara's eyes brightened ”Really? It is possible to rent?”

Hoy's expression was unreadable. No one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

”What is wrong with you? Are you not happy the director is sparing his precious time to talk to you? Why are you still asking many questions?” The manager scolded.

Sara was not in the mood for him so she totally ignored him. And followed Hoy. She had to swallow her pride.

Sara looked at the gowns in awe, after they settled in the VIP room. She had never thought that gowns would fascinate her this much. ”But they are very expensive. You are sure to let me rent one at a cheap price?” She asked skeptically. Since they were much more expensive that the one in the main store.

”You should spend your time trying them instead of talking. I'm not sure you have much time left” He answered her from the chair he was sitting.

Sara didn't wait to be reminded the second time as she began trying the gowns in the closet and coming out for Hoy to pass his judgement.

The fun gradually died as Hoy kept giving a negative remark on every outfit she tried.

”Remind me what kind of party is that again?” He asked.

”A grandpa's birthday party” She responded dejectedly.

Hoy tried his best not to laugh. ”Then you know why those gowns weren't suitable for you”

”Then why did you make me try them?” She asked angrily. He had been the one who chose the gowns.

”Just because.” He answered nonchalantly as his lips slightly curved upwards.
