Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321

The next day morning, Edmund arrived right on time at Arthur's home entrance.

Seeing a woman in a black dress carrying a small bag walk out. Edmund smiled mysteriously.

After all, he did request that Elspeth wear a black dress, yet he did not think that she would actually do it.

This put him in a good mood.

Just as Elspeth placed her hand on the car door handle. Edmund rolled down the window and looked at her teasingly.

"What are you looking at?"

Elspeth raised her eyebrows, accompanied by a straightforward tone.

"I knew that you looked better in black. Those white dresses that you used to wear could not accentuate your elegance."

Elspeth smirked. "Aren't you a fashionista."

Not arguing with her. Edmund drove away as soon as she got in.

Soon, they reached a shopping mall.

Since the national day was near, a lot of people were gathered there, and it made Elspeth look at him with a frown. " Why are we here?"

"Do you still remember we came to the mall on our very first outing together?"

Edmund seemed to be reminiscing and lamenting at the same time.

It was when she first came to the Winthrop Family... Father wanted five of us to accompany her to the mall to shop for clothes.

"Don't tell me you're about to spend the whole day going down memory lane, are you?"

Edmund shook his head. "That would be too much. I won't do that."

Too much?

In Elspeth's memories, she and Edmund barely interacted before. Normally, they would only greet each other and exchange a bit of banter if they met.

What does he mean by too much?

"Edmund. I don't think we're particularly close?"

His gaze darkened as a reaction to her words.

"Actually. I was by your side in a lot of situations. It was just that you weren't aware."

Elspeth clutched her bag tightly.

"What do you mean by this?"

"Not much. It's nothing. Let's continue walking. Come on. I'll buy some clothes for you."

With a cold tone. Elspeth replied. "I don't need more clothes. I have tons of them."

"What does it have to do with whether you'd like more clothes or not? I'm the one paying, anyway. Don't forget that you're my girlfriend for today, so whatever I want to do. that's up to me."

After stating that. Edmund held Elspeth's hand.

Edmund could feel a subtle heat radiating from her palm as well as a bit of moisture.

"Are you nervous being with me? You're all sweaty."

Suddenly. Edmund had a naughty thought, as he rubbed her palm gently.

Elspeth, who felt the sensation akin to ants crawling on her skin, took a few steps back in disgust.

"I'm saying this now. If you don't satisfy me today, then don't think that I'll be lending you that freight ship."

This made Elspeth sneer. "I won't agree to any absurd request, so don't force me."

"Am I this sort of person in your eyes?"
