Love Contract novel Chapter 62

Sitting in the car, Mary felt a bit uneasy. It was strange to sit in a car wearing only a swimsuit.

"Could you find a nice spot to park the car? I'm going to change my clothes," asked Mary.

William stared at her. "Are you afraid that I will see your body?"

"There is nothing to look at." William bit his lips and continued, "I'm not interested in women."

"Then why did you — " Mary turned her head in anger. She was so furious she could not finish her words.

"Why did I what?" asked William.

"Nothing, nothing." Mary took a deep breath. 'Why did you rape me?' she said in her heart. Mary turned to look at William again. 'That night is also a big blow to him, isn't it?'

"Let's go eat." William did not dwell on the topic anymore. Without waiting for Mary's permission, he drove to the most prosperous commercial street in A City.

"How can I go inside while wearing a swimsuit?! " Mary asked while rolling her eyes. Annoyed, she said firmly, "No, I'm not hungry." "I am ordering you as your employer. Do you understand?" said William sternly while raising his eyebrows.

"I know, I know." Mary was still unconvinced but she had no choice but to agree. "A typical evil businessman style," she muttered under her breath.

"Mary!" William pulled the car over. "Are you provoking me?" He looked annoyed. Mary, on the other hand, just bit her lips.

"No, no, no." She waved her hand in dismissal.

Sometimes she could not control her own mouth and it would cause her trouble.

"You'd better not. Otherwise, you can go to dinner wearing only that." William got out of the car first, walked to the door of the passenger seat, and opened the door for Mary. "Come out. Let's go buy you some clothes first."

"What?" Confused, she got out of the car and looked up. In front of her was the entrance of a mall. The first floor of the shopping mall was surrounded with transparent windows. There, Mary was able to see all luxury goods she could never afford.

William was the first to enter the establishment. Mary followed closely behind him silently.

She felt strange as she was only wearing a bikini inside a suit jacket. How Mary wished she could find a hole to hide herself! "Hello, sir, madam, what can I do for you?" The shop assistant smiled as if she did not see Mary's ridiculous attire.

"Get her some clothes," William said, his hands inside his pockets. When he spoke, his voice was cool and calm.

"Okay." The shop assistant nodded her head gracefully and walked to Mary's side. "Ma'am, what kind of clothes do you want?"

"Anything," Mary whispered. She lowered her head out of embarrassment.

The shop assistant took out a black strapless bubble skirt and asked, "Ma'am, what do you think about this one? This skirt is one of Chanel's StartingPoint series this season. It's simple but elegant. It's suitable for your temperament."

Mary looked up and scanned the dress. It was pretty but it was not her type.

She raised her hand to see the price tag. Her hand trembled when she saw the five zeroes on the tag. "This... This is not my style at all! No!"

"How about this one?" The shop assistant brought a light yellow dress.

"Let me see..." As Mary touched the dress, she cast a sharp glance at the price tag.

Five zeroes again! "This one is not good either..." Mary shook her head.

"How do you know it's not good if you haven't tried it?" William stood aside and frowned. 'Women are so troublesome!' he thought.

"I can tell that it's not good at a glance," Mary answered as she shook her head repeatedly.

"Why is it not good?" William asked, "Is it the style? Color? Brand?"

"No." Mary just gave a flattering smile.

"Then what is it?"

"Price!" Mary approached William and whispered, "It's too expensive. Normal clothes are okay with me!"

Hearing that, William did not know whether to laugh or cry. This woman neither cared about style nor color. She valued money more. "I'm not asking you to pay for it."

"Well, I don't think that's okay," Mary insisted. "I will feel guilty if I receive a reward without any merit."

"Then deduct it from the money I will give you."

"No way!" Mary responded immediately and accidentally raised her voice.

This caused the customers in the shop to turn around to look at the two. William frowned slightly.

With a gloomy face, Mary apologized, "I'm sorry... I can't use that money."

'How can I spend the money for my mother's treatment on a dress?!' Mary sighed at the thought of it.

"Since when did you become so timid?" William asked calmly, "Shouldn't you argue with me this time?"

"I didn't..." Mary's voice trailed off. Before Mary could continue her sentence, William spoke, "Try the yellow one." William waved his hand and the shop assistant led Mary to the dressing room.

All of a sudden, his phone rang.

"Frank?" William smiled. "What's up?" Mary was just about to enter the dressing room when she heard William's phone ring.

She glanced back and gazed at William's gentle face for a moment.

After trying on the expensive dress, Mary came out of the dressing room slowly.

No matter how much money one had, it could not erase the pain they felt in the heart.

William was standing in front of a transparent window of the store. He was gazing at the heavy traffic when he saw Mary's reflection on the window. "It's very beautiful." William turned around and nodded.

"Really?" Mary said while forcing a smile.

"Yeah. Let's go. I've already paid the bill. Let's go have a dinner," said William.
