Twisted Love's

Episode 21

Though I thought he would criticize me, but I guess he really showed his attention...

Even though I can tell her I'm not a teenager anymore, I'll just answer her well and grow up about it.

"I understand. From now on I'll be more careful."

"good. Glad to hear it."

I think answering honestly does produce good results

At least for a while, we were back to normal again ...

"By the way ... Where are you taking me?" As I asked, Nolan returned his cold, expressionless face.

"Oh ... I have to go to the party. So you're going with me."

"Huh?"

What party is this? And why did he think he could give me orders?!

"Why should I? You've been to the party a lot. Why don't you go alone?" My toot.

"I would do it if I could, but this party requires me to come as a couple."

So he has already decided that I will be his partner?!

"I don't care, but what kind of party is that?"

"It was hosted by my father."

"Seriously? Your papa? Doesn't that mean it'll be full of lawyers and stuff?"

I'm not so sure about this ...

"More or less so." Nolan.

No way! That can't happen!

"sorry. It's better if I don't come. You better find someone else."

"Why is that?" Nolan scrunched his forehead.

"Because I might open my big mouth again ..."

"You mean about the shelter?"

"You don't have to say that..."

I still have some trauma from previous events...

"If you're so worried about it, don't give an answer if someone asks. Besides, I haven't decided to take this case yet."

"You haven't?" My toot.

"The new defendant only chose me as a candidate. Don't you remember the news?"

"B-But the news sounds like you've been working for them ..."

"It's just the media trying to attract attention. Don't believe everything you hear or see."

"But it's true that the company wants you as their lawyer. Isn't that pretty guaranteed?"

"God ... You always draw your own conclusions. I'm here trying to tell you that's not the whole picture." Nolan said frustratedly.

"sorry. Okay I get it..."

I need to stop making assumptions. This will get me in trouble ...

"I'll tell you on the way, if you like. So are you coming or not?" Nolan asked now as I calmed down a bit.

"Last time I took you out for throwing a coin. This time, I took you out because I wanted to. Understood?"

"Yes..."

"good. Then there's no reason to refuse." He grabbed my arm once more and started walking away.

"H-Hey! Waitaminute! Even if I say 'yes' to the party, I can't appear like this! At least let me go back to my room and change!" Excruciate.

"You don't even have a dress, do you?"

"Ugh .. I know that! I can borrow from Joy!"

"How long will it take?" Nolan muttered, exasperated, and pulled my arm even harder.

"Stop pulling me! I can walk by myself!" I finally twisted the arm freeing myself from his grip and ran following behind him.

He then rushed to the corner of the street filled with high-end famous brand shops.

"Can you slow down a little?" By the time I could finally catch up with him, Nolan was talking to a woman at the entrance of a luxury clothing store.

Is that someone he knows?

"Please get through here, Miss." Suddenly, the woman left Nolan's side and went straight towards me.

"Yes. This is Mr. Zarek's request."

"What the hell is going on?" I screamed loudly in a voice that contrasted with the luxurious shop.

"You won't meet the dress code if it's like that, and we don't have time to change at home." Nolan explained.

"But..."

I can't buy clothes from a fancy place like this!

"Hurry along. I can't stand waiting for people."

"Come, come here, lady! Come here to the dressing room!" Encouraged by Nolan's orders, the woman half pushed me into the dressing room.

Why is everyone always pushing me?

Shortly after, I finished changing.

"Oh? You look beautiful." I stepped out of the locker room and got a compliment from the shop assistant.

"Nm ... How much is this?" I asked hesitantly while trying to recall some of the bill papers scattered in my wallet.

Guessing from the material and design, this dress must have been expensive ... There is no price tag here!

"Mr Zarek took care of it."

"Huh?" I followed the woman's gaze towards the entrance where Nolan crossed his arms waiting impatiently.

Since when did he do that?! He could at least tell me!

Nolan watched me approach and gave a nod in agreement.

"Come on. We're in a hurry."

"Hey! Listen to me first!" Nolan walked out of the shop, ignoring my every word.

Does he think the world revolves around him?

"How much? I promise I'll pay you back." I rushed forward to catch up and interrupted him to look for answers.

"I'll write it down as an expense, so don't worry about it." He replied while walking straight towards the next place.

So basically, this is a gift?!

At the next store we entered, he gave a barrage of orders to the shop assistant just like before.

This time, a number of shoes in various sizes were displayed to me.

"Pick your size and sit down." Nolan's orders.

"OK-OK..."

I took my shoe of choice in hand and sat in a small chair in front of a large size mirror.

"Give it to me." Nolan took the shoe from my hand and squatted down in front of me.

Huh uh?!

He supported my heel with one hand while tucking the shoe with the other.

Although his tongue can be very evil and sharp, the way he holds me is very gentle.

Just like at the horse club, when he caught me when I fell ...

She hugged me like I was a delicate flower that was easily crushed ...

"How's the shoe?"

"It's a very fitting ..." My heart throbbed as I replied, although Nolan quickly stood up.

"Send his old shoes to this address. He's gonna wear this one now." Nolan ordered the store clerk.

I think he's used to giving orders ...

Nolan did not stop there, he led me shopping to buy bags and accessories that matched the dress I was wearing.

In addition, she took me to a celebrity-class salon where they styled my hair and put on makeup.

"You're really a high-cost woman." Nolan commented while looking up and down at my transformational figure up close.

I can't believe ... I can barely even recognize myself...

My jaw dropped open when I saw my new look in the mirror.

"And now, for the main event..."

"What's? Is there more?!" I clumsily chased after him, unfamiliar with the high heels that so rarely adorned my feet.
