Without any delay, Joan grabbed Larry as they headed out together.
Their first stop was a clothing store where Joan bought some new clothes.
As most of her clothes were for casual occasions, she figured she needed something proper for such a momentous occasion.
“Larry, what do you think of this?” Joan asked as she emerged from the changing room.
“Looks good,” Larry responded.
“How about this one?”
“Not bad.”
“What about this?”
“Looks good on you too.”
Joan tried out many different outfits while Larry patiently waited to provide his objective opinion.
“Hey, can you treat this more seriously?”
Joan grumbled, “Don't just keep saying that it looks good. You have to provide more constructive suggestions.”
“But they really do look good.”
Larry wasn't lying at all. Given Joan's exquisite features and curves at all the right places, she could easily carry anything she wore.
“In that case, just pick one for me, then.”
Joan insisted on Larry choosing for her.
“That's easy. Miss, please pack everything up. I'm taking all of them.”
With a wave of his hand, he handed his card to the sales attendant and bought everything.
“Of course, Sir. Please wait for a moment.”
The sales attendant was ecstatic as she was able to achieve two months' worth of sales in one go.
“Larry! That's too much. I won't have the chance to wear them all.”
Joan quickly stopped him.
“Don't worry, you look good in all of them.
Besides, I'm the president of Norton Corporation while you are my girlfriend. There's nothing wrong with you splurging on some clothes.”
