Skylar nodded with a smile. “Yes, that’s me.”
“The traditional dress was finished just yesterday. Mr. Ziegler gave us the measurements, so please try it on and let us know if it fits,” Terence said with a warm smile.
When Skylar heard that the measurements were from Paul, she realized they must have come from Joe. But she had never told Joe her measurements. Skylar wondered how he
knew.
She suddenly recalled the way Joe had lightly touched her before.
As she carried the traditional dress into the fitting room, her cheeks couldn’t help but flush.
Meanwhile, Joe was inspecting a project for his company nearby. Though the project was minor, and he usually wouldn’t be involved in checking the progress, he made an exception
this time.
However, Paul had mentioned that the traditional dress was ready, and Joe decided to visit.
Perhaps Skylar’s proactive effort to ease the tension between them today stirred his heart when he heard the word “traditional dress“. He could almost picture Skylar wearing the
traditional dress.
His heart warmed slightly at the thought. It was a subtle, barely perceptible flutter.
A few minutes ago, Paul had already received a message on WhatsApp from Ralph. He informed him that Skylar had arrived and was trying on the traditional dress.
He immediately told Joe, “Mr. Martin, let’s look at the traditional dress. Mr. Marrow just told me they’ll be closing soon.”
“Alright,” Joe agreed.
When they entered the shop, Joe immediately sat on the couch.
When Terence saw Paul, he looked surprised and wondered why he was there.
“Is Mr. Ziegler here for your mother’s traditional dress?” Terence asked.
Paul nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’m here to pick up a traditional dress for my mother. She hasn’t been feeling well lately, so I’ll take it home for her to try on and see if it fits.”
Terence nodded, then kindly added, “I’ll go get it. By the way, Ms. Sullivan is here as well and is currently trying on the traditional dress.”
Terence assumed Skylar was Paul’s girlfriend. He knew Paul, but…
Terence glanced at Joe, who was sitting on the couch and had just nodded at him. He wondered why a high–profile CEO would accompany his assistant to pick up a traditional dress.

At that moment, Skylar emerged from the fitting room. She didn’t notice Joe sitting on the couch or see Paul. Her attention was focused entirely on the traditional dress.
This was her first time wearing such a traditional dress, and she was surprised at how well it fit. It showcased her curves perfectly.
She was aware of her good figure, but the traditional dress made it look even better than she had expected. Standing in front of the mirror, she murmured, “It fits perfectly. There don’t seem to be any adjustments needed.”
The perfect fit of the dress highlighted Joe’s understanding of her figure. She thought, “Is his hand like a measuring tape? So precise?”
As she pondered this, a familiar male voice broke her thoughts. “You look great in that dress.”
Skylar turned around. She was surprised to see Joe standing behind her. “You…”
She thought, “What is he doing here?”
Out of the corner of her eye, Skylar also noticed Paul, who was holding another traditional dress.
After three days apart, Skylar felt flustered and unprepared upon seeing Joe.
Joe noticed Skylar’s surprised and uncertain expression, and Joe felt the gloom that had been lingering in his heart vanish instantly. A subtle smile appeared on his lips.
“Go change,” Joe said with a touch of possessiveness. He thought she looked too tempting in that dress.
