Chapter 94: Shopping Trip 2

Morgan went over to the next display and nodded, "I’ll take this set as well."

This same scene continued throughout the entire store. The saleswoman was beaming by the time Morgan finished making her selections.

I still couldn’t get over the fact that we were even in here. Morgan, who was a virgin, was shopping in a lingerie store that was clearly designed for having sex.

She glanced over at me, noticing my complicated look.

"I know you’re probably not used to seeing such clothes, but you should start to familiarize yourself. I bet Karl would like to see you in something like that, you should buy it."

She pointed at a very different-looking set of lingerie. It was made of black leather rope that twisted around the breasts. It looked like it was straight out of a BDSM scene where the woman was completely tied up in rope, exposing only her important parts.

Morgan’s mention of Karl sent a shiver down my spine, and not the good kind. Not having seen him these past few days made me forget about his existence.

The thought of him seeing me in any of these sets made me sick. Morgan was probably right; out of all of these, the set she pointed to was probably the one he would like most.

"Go on, buy it. I won’t tell Mom," she said with an evil grin.

"What about you? Won’t Mom know that you bought all of those?" I asked, trying to change the subject from Karl.

"She won’t mind. I’m engaged, so it’s only normal for me to begin thinking about my future husband," she said, twirling her hair.

Cherie finally spoke up. Since entering the store, she didn’t say a word and focused on exploring all of the designs, but Morgan’s words must have finally riled her up.

"Isn’t it a bit too soon to be thinking about such things? I asked around, and you don’t even have a wedding date set yet!"

Morgan stomped her foot, angry that she hit her sore spot. "Just because we aren’t married now, doesn’t mean we won’t be eventually. Besides, things can happen. Christian is a man in his prime, and I am an attractive woman, who’s to say he doesn’t one day give in to his desires?"

Her eyes fluttered, and her cheeks flushed pink as she spoke. I looked at her like she was crazy.

Where did she get such ideas from? She gave Christian a pair of panties, and now she’s convinced he wants her badly.

After paying, we left the store. Thankfully, they had an option where the purchased items would get sent straight to our house, so we wouldn’t need to carry the dozen bags that Morgan purchased.

The next store was only a few steps away from the lingerie boutique. It had a similarly luxurious entrance, but this time it specialized in women’s clothes. I recognized the brand as one of the top ones on the market. Each piece was made from high-quality materials and was always on trend.

Cherie perked up as we walked inside. I could tell that she liked the style of the clothes by the way she immersed herself in looking through the displays.

I finally allowed myself to relax a little and join them in looking through the clothes. As nice as they all looked, none of them compared to the quality and style of the clothes that Christian purchased for me.

I wonder where he got them from.

Morgan and Cherie both picked out dozens of outfits while I walked around empty-handed.

"Not finding anything you like?" asked Cherie. She walked over to stand beside me, followed by a saleswoman who was carrying a huge pile of clothes.

Just as I opened my mouth to answer, Morgan came by, "Of course not. She’s all into office attire right now. She aims to be a low-level secretary for the rest of her life."

Cherie let out a small laugh, looking me over. "To each their own, I guess. Some of us are destined to rise, while others..."

She ’tactfully’ decided not to finish her sentence, only glancing at me with a look of superiority. Though her words were meant to be hurtful, I was surprisingly calm.

Some of us dream of a few minutes of Christian’s attention, while others....

I quickly realized that there was nothing to be jealous of. Christian and I had smoldering chemistry, and that was worth more than all the riches of the world.

Seeing that their words had little effect on me, they stormed away to continue shopping. I was finally left alone once more and took the time to wait outside the store.

Just outside the store was a small seating area that allowed me to see into the store as well as observe the rest of the mall.

Many people walked by, of all shapes and sizes. They were mostly walking in groups or small pairs, discussing their recent purchases or current sales.

Couples walked hand in hand while they enjoyed each other’s company. Overall, the atmosphere was pleasant and full of life.

I would like to come here with Christian.

The thought popped into my head naturally. Christian was beginning to occupy my thoughts more and more. I wanted more and more. More of his attention, more of his time.

Will we ever be like these couples? Openly holding hands without caring who sees us?

I won’t lie. Having sex in secret is incredibly hot and adds to the spice, but I also longed for situations like these, where we can enjoy each other’s company without the fear of being discovered.

"Leslie, is that you?"

I turned my head and noticed Lucas approaching me from a distance. His golden hair and bright smile were hard to miss, even in the large crowd.

"Lucas, nice to see you," I smiled, greeting him warmly. After our brief interaction on Sunday, my opinion of him significantly improved.

"Are you here to get some shopping done?" he asked cheerfully.

"I am. I’m here with my sister and friend. They’re in that store over there," I pointed. "What about you? Are you here alone?"

Lucas nodded, "I am. I haven’t really made any more friends yet, so there was no one I could invite. But it’s okay, I was only here for a few things anyway. Maybe next time, I can invite you?"

I felt slightly bad for him. He was such a kind person, and he deserved to be surrounded by good friends. I didn’t want him to be sad, so I nodded my head.

"Sure, I would love to join you next time," I said, smiling.

Hearing my response, he smiled so brightly that I wanted to reach out and pat him on the head. "Really? You mean it?" he asked.

"Yes, of course!" I nodded. His smile was so strong that I couldn’t help but smile brightly myself.

"Then I will do just that! I’ll even treat you to a meal!" he said with excitement.
