Chapter 76 - Which Dress Should She Wear?

"You're so mysterious."

Vincent just realized he had been holding his breath for a moment at the girl's explanation.

Jeez! Why is this girl so adorable? Why is this girl always able to steal his heart again and again?

Vincent knew he was the one who asked all kinds of questions about the girl because he wanted to get to know her inside out. But the girl never once asked back about him, which made him think Cathy wasn't interested in him at all.

Now the girl said a series of words that made her heart pound, and his brain couldn't think straight.

For the first time... for the first time, Cathy was curious about him!

Does this mean that the girl is starting to be attracted to him? Does this mean he can still have a chance to win over this girl next to him?

Well, even if the girl avoided him or didn't have any feelings for him, he wouldn't just quit either. His family might know Vincent as someone who was not ambitious, spoiled, or easy to bully when dealing with family business rivals.

But only his close friends, as well as members of his elite team, knew how much ambition he had and how quick-witted and heartless he was against his family's rivals... especially against his enemies. How could Vincent just give up on getting the girl who stole his heart with his true nature?

"If you're curious about me, we can meet again tomorrow."

Cathy blinked several times because she didn't expect that the man would ask her to meet again in such a short time.

"And the next day and the next day and the next day."

Not yet recovering from the shock, the man even made her more shocked by his words. So, does it mean... they will meet every day??

Jeez... can't her heart just calm down for a moment? Only Cathy could hear her pleading in her heart.

Seeing Cathy not making a sound, Vincent smiled happily. He was sure if this girl did not want to be with him, Cathy would reject him directly and insist on avoiding him. This girl was not like others who were filled with pretense. But this one was straightforward and did not hide hidden motives purposely.

Therefore, if Cathy hates him or dislikes being with him, she would refuse to meet him this instant. However, this girl didn't show signs of refusing and just looked at him with a confused look.

"I'll assume your answer is yes then," he said with a wide grin that made Cathy unable to breathe normally.

'You can't get away from me anymore, Catherine West. And I will never let you escape from me.'

Catherine couldn't hear Vincent's heart, and her mind was filled with the fact that she would see the man every day.

She thought that just being able to meet him again was an unexpected miracle, but she had no idea that he would invite her to see him every day.

Does this mean… the man asking her out?

Cathy shook her head, quickly shaking off this almost impossible thought. How could they be called dating while the man didn't say anything?

The next day…

Cathy glanced one by one at the casual dresses that had been spread out on her big bed. There was a knee-length dress with a pretty ribbon belt at the waist, and next to it was a sleeveless dress with lace at the hem of the skirt. And the next one was a mix and matched a booklet shirt with a short skirt.

No... it seemed like she won't be comfortable if she wears a short skirt. Should she wear a t-shirt with jeans as usual?

Cathy facepalmed, completely confused at which one to wear for today's meeting. She tried to rummage through her closet to see what clothes she has.

This has never happened before. Cathy never thought about her appearance when she met someone. Even when she was working, Cathy only wore something comfortable with her favorite jeans. Then why did she mess with the contents of a cupboard that she had barely previously unpacked?

Cathy walked backward away from her closet, not believing what she would see. For the first time since she lived there, her wardrobe's situation looked like a war had happened.

Finally, she laid on her bed with a sigh of resignation. She couldn't even see colors, so how did she know she would look pretty in the clothes of her choice?

Beautiful… she often heard the word beautiful, which refers to her. But never once did she take them seriously because every time she looked at her reflection in the mirror, she didn't look pretty at all.

She could only see her image with sad eyes filled with bitterness and the gray color that enveloped her from head to toe.

How does it feel when she thinks of herself as beautiful? Can she be beautiful? Will the person she is going to meet think that she...

Cathy shook her head hard before picking up the pillow and covering her face.

She felt herself crazy. She even hoped that the man could see her as a beautiful girl. Therefore she tried to choose clothes that could show her beauty. She wanted to show her best appearance for the man.

This is... This is the first time.

"Aaaaaaa..." Cathy screamed under her pillow, bursting with frustration. Of course, the sound was entirely muffled so as not to worry the younger siblings.

After not moving for a moment, she began to wonder... should she just wear her usual attire? Besides, she didn't want to be seen overlooked. After all, they weren't lovers, and this meeting wasn't date either. 

Cathy decided to wear a plain T-shirt and her favorite jeans.

Cathy changed clothes according to her choices. Then she said goodbye to her three siblings, kissed their foreheads, and walked straight until passing the house's gate. However, her steps came to a halt as she decided to listen to her heart.

She promptly ran back into her house in a hurry while calling one of her sisters.

"Anna, please help me."

"What kind of help?"

"Help me choose a pretty dress."

Anna squealed happily, and she helped her sister with more than a happy heart. Her most favorite hobby was dolling up her three sisters.. And no one could ever doubt her skill.
