Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 261

A week later, I almost finished the landscape gardening design. After communicating with Calvin, I could get the indoor design started.

Speaking of indoor design, I was only in charge of a small part of it.

It would take me two weeks to finish it.

That afternoon, as soon as I came out of the Institute of Architecture Design, I saw Shelton standing at the entrance.

Standing against the sun, he, who wore a white shirt, looked handsome and warm.

When we had lunch together, I told him I would come here in the afternoon. I didn't expect that he would come here to wait for me.

Walking up to him quickly, I asked, "How come you are waiting for me here?"

"Yes." Shelton took the documents over from my hand and asked me gently, "Do you have time tonight?"

"What's the matter?"

In theory, Shelton knew my working hours and schedule on usual days quite well.

In City Y, except for him, I didn't interact with anyone else.

He specifically asked me whether I was available this time, indicating that he surely had a plan.

Looking at me, Shelton looked a little nervous. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Here is the case. Dad wants me to take you home."

"Your father?"

I did a quick calculation and realized that Shelton was talking about Ned Cowell.

Ned was Patrick's grandfather.

I didn't want to go to Ned's house.

I thought so in my heart. Even so, I didn't say it out loud. I looked up and asked Shelton, "How did he know about me? Did you tell him about me?"

"No." Shelton shook his head slightly, "Patrick should have told him about you. He suddenly asked me about you today. I couldn't refuse him."

He looked at me with a nervous and somewhat expectant expression on his face.

I realized that the fact that he told me the truth meant that he wanted me to go there.

I hesitated for a moment. "Patrick..."

"Patrick probably won't go there today."

Shelton answered.

Hearing Shelton's words, I felt a little relieved and nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Although I hadn't formally agreed to be with Shelton, I couldn't deny that he was indeed a good person and that he was quite suitable to be Glenn's father.

Seeing that I had agreed, Shelton became completely relaxed and said gently, "If you don't want to go there, you can refuse."

"Of course not. As the saying goes, an ugly daughter- in- law has to see her in- laws eventually." I looked up at Shelton and smiled at him.

"You are not ugly."

Resting his hand on my shoulder, Shelton took me in his arms.

A faint smell of disinfectant drifted into my nose, making me inexplicably at ease.

I took a look at my clothes and glanced at my watch, "What time will the dinner start? Will it be too late for me to go back now and get changed?"

"I'll go buy a set with you," Shelton said quite naturally.

"There's no need forthat. I...'

"Don't refuse me. It's just a set of clothes."

Since he had said so, it wasn't appropriate for me to continue refusing him.

Shelton took me to a mall named Star Department Store in City Y where I had visited several times. I, who was familiar with it, naturally knew where the clothes fitting with my style were.

I took Shelton to a store selling traditional clothes.

There were various kinds of traditional clothes. And the price difference lay in the fabric and the embroidery.

Star Department Store was a quite high-end store. Most of the clothes sold inside were made of silk fabrics with handmade embroidery on them. The accessories on them were all genuine treasures.

As soon as I entered the store, a set featuring light purple and white color at the door caught my eyes. With a sleeved overdress outside, the set had a long dress inside.

It fit this season perfectly well.
