Never let go

12 : Boss's order

~ Rosella ~

"So does that means all this shopping is for me?"

"Yes and go try this on." He handed me a dress.

I went to the changing room and wore the dress that he picked for me.

It was a formal dress that I could wear at work as it was not revealing unlike the dresses that Emma gave me but this dress was a little form fitting as it showed my curves but I don't mind wearing it.

There was a knock on the door. " Are you gonna take the entire day to wear that dress." Came Lucas's impatient voice from the other side of the door.

"I'm already wearing it...just wait a sec I'll quickly change it."

"No need just come out I wanna make sure that the dress is up to our office standards or not." I just rolled my eyes on this silliness and came out of the changing room.

I saw Lucas standing in front of me with his arms crossed.

"So what do you think?" I asked.

He didn't replied but called the lady who was holding a bunch of other clothes with her "pack this one too."

"Wait what do you mean "too"... how many are we buying?"

" Just the ones she's holding." He pointed at the bunch of clothes that the lady was holding

"That's way too many I can't afford these expensive dresses... listen you keep those dresses I'll just have this one."

"Don't listen to her and do as I say." Lucas order the lady and she took all those dresses to the counter.

"Do you want to brake my bank account I can't pay for all those expensive dresses."

"Who asked you to pay...I'm paying."

"I can't take these from you."

"What's the problem? you said that you are uncomfortable with the ones you have to wear because of you friend, or are you enjoying the looks that men give you in the meetings?" What the hell is he saying.

"Fine, can I change now."

After making the payment we left. Thought I did not want new clothes but I'm already excited to wear these dresses at work. I also wonder what will Emma say when I tell her about this.

When we reached the hotel I went straight to my suite room to see what all clothes Lucas picked for me. And I was rather pretty impressed by his senses of styling. But wait what is this?There was a big box in one of the bags.

When I opened it there as a beautiful gown in there. Where did this come from?
I think maybe our bags got exchanged.

I went to Lucas's room and found him sitting on the couch with his laptop.
He looks up from the screen "what?"he said. I held the gown up and showed him.

"I think our bags got exchanged at the store so I need to return this gown back."

"No need to return it."

"But why? The one who bought it must be worried." Lucas stood up from the couch.

"I bought this for you." He walked closer.

"What? But why?...I don't have any occasion to wear it and it's expensive." He held my arm and I nervously took a step back but he didn't let go.

"Tomorrow we have to attend a business event, and you gonna be my date." His other hand was lightly touching my ear and playing with the loose strands of hair.
