Chapter 3: Shop For Clothes

About half an hour later, they arrived at the mall. Haylee was embarrassed to get out of the car because she was totally drenched by the rain before. Her hair was wet and she looked miserable. But Niel forced her out of the car and dragged her around the mall. There were many eyes watching at them in puzzlement, Haylee was so shy that she just kept looking down all the time and let Niel led her way.

He suddenly entered a luxurious clothes boutique. Again Haylee was hesitant to enter the shop, but Niel dragged her in.

"Good evening, Mr Anderson. What can I help you today?"

A female shop assistant approached them in a hurry. She was smiling widely at them.

"Yes, Mary. Could you help this lady to find some clothes that suit her?"

Niel talked so casually to the shop assistant as if he knew her before. Haylee was somewhat surprised. 'How could he call her by her first name? That shop assistant is obviously older than him.' She muttered in her heart, feeling displeased by Niel's attitude.

"Of course, Mr Anderson. May I know your name, Miss?"

Strangely, that shop assistant didn't care much about the thing that bothering Haylee's mind.

"She's Haylee Johnson." Niel was the one who's answering instead.

"Right. Miss Johnson, please come with me. I'll show you around," Mary said kindly to Haylee and politely took her by the arm and showed her the clothes available inside the shop.

Haylee had no choice but to follow. She looked at Niel who took a seat on a chair near the cashier counter, he was grabbing a fashion magazine and looking through it.

Mary checked Haylee's body measurements and within a few minutes, she grabbed about twenty clothes that matched her body size. She didn't even bother to ask Haylee for her opinion. Mary just took the latest fashion attires and packed them in shopping bags.

"Miss... these clothes are too fashionable for me. I'm just a high school student. I can't possibly have anywhere to go that suits these kinds of clothes. Do you have any casual clothes? Something that I can wear daily?" Haylee said softly to Mary.

Mary was somewhat flustered. She felt guilty that she didn't ask for Haylee's opinion first.

"I'm sorry, Miss Johnson. My bad. I'll go pack some other casual clothes for you too," she replied kindly with a smile.

In a few minutes, she brought another thirty casual clothes and packed them inside the shopping bags again. Now, there was a total of fifty clothes packed inside the shopping bags.

"Miss... these are too much. I just need two or three clothes. I don't have money to pay for all of this," Haylee was hesitant to take all the clothes.

Although, Niel said in the car just now that she won't be the one who's paying, but she didn't feel that it was right for him to pay for her.

Mary chuckled at her words. Haylee was somewhat surprised by her reaction. 'Is she mocking me because I'm poor?' She thought.

"Miss Johnson, don't worry. It's all free." Mary reassured her.

"Free? How come all of these are free?"

"You see... Mr Anderson owns this shop."

"Niel? Niel owns this shop? How can that be possible? He's only seventeen. Are you sure he's the owner?" Haylee's eyes widen in shock at Mary's revelation.

Mary nodded her head and said, "Yes, Miss Johnson. I'm quite confident and absolutely sure that Mr Anderson was the owner of this shop."

Haylee turned her gaze to Niel. 'How rich is he?' She was astonished. Sensing like someone was looking at him, Niel looked up and saw Haylee at the end of his sight. He stood up and walked towards her.

"Is she done?" Niel asked Mary as soon as he reached them.

"Almost. Miss Johnson, do you want to choose some bags? We have a variety of bags. Maybe you could pick a few handbags." Mary suggested to Haylee.

"I don't need handbags though... I just need a backpack or a school bag."

"Then, let's choose a backpack and a handbag," Mary ushered her to the bag section.

Niel peeked through the shopping bags on the counters that filled with women clothes. He nodded a little as if he was satisfied by the clothes that Mary picked for Haylee. Then he glanced at both the women who were busy choosing some bags. 'Seems like it's going to be long,' he thought. So, he walked back to the chair near the cashier counter to sit again.

He took out his phone and looking through his Inst*gram, liking some random pictures from people that he followed to pass the time.

"Ok then. All done for bags. Is there anything else that you would like to add, Miss Johnson?" Mary asked as her hands were busy packing the bags that Haylee had chose.

"Do you have like... lingerie section?" Haylee was hesitant to ask as she felt shy about it. But she did need some undergarments though. She's a girl after all, she couldn't possibly wear clothes without a bra and panties.

Mary chuckled and smiled at her. "Of course we have," she said and quickly ushered her to the lingerie section.

"Miss, did Niel always bring girls to shop clothes here?" Haylee couldn't help but ask.

Her eyes were scanning the lingeries available at the shop. All of them looked extremely sexy that she hardly found anything which suited her decent taste.

"No. You are the first one."

Mary's answer made her surprised. 'Really? He had dated a lot of girls in school though...' She found it hard to believe.

Niel was basically a womanizer. He dated a lot of girls and changed his girlfriends multiple times. Rumour said that he only dated a girl for one month, then he would break it off with them because he was easily bored.

"That's weird," Haylee muttered slowly but her words were heard by Mary.

"Why?" Mary was curious.

"He had a lot of girlfriends at school."

Mary was somewhat confused, but then again she thought it wasn't really her business to know about her boss personal affairs so she just let it slipped out of her mind.

After about twenty minutes, they finished choosing some lingeries and then Mary brought the lingeries straight to the cashier counter to pack them inside the shopping bags.

"What took you so long to choose some bags?" Niel suddenly asked Haylee in an almost annoyed voice.

"Owh, actually Miss Johnson was choosing some lingeries," Mary answered him instead and showed the lingeries she had on her hands to Niel.

Haylee was embarrassed, she tried to cover the lingeries using both her hands but Niel already saw them. Her face suddenly became hot and she could feel that she was blushing terribly.

"Owh... sorry, I forgot that you need that as well," Niel said kindly as he was also a bit flustered by the situation.

"Take one of the clothes and go change at the fitting room. You'll catch a cold if you keep wearing that wet clothes," Niel ordered Haylee and she just did as he told. Probably because she wanted to run away from those embarrassing situations.

After changing, Haylee went back to the cashier counter. As soon as Niel saw her, he said, "Baby Girl, let's go."

He put his hand on the back of her waist and pushed her closer to his body. Then he dragged her towards the door.

"What about those clothes?" Haylee asked about the shopping bags that were still on the counter.

"Don't worry, Miss Johnson. We will send them directly to your house." Mary said to her.

"But I don't have a house though..."

"Haha hahaha..." Niel laughed sarcastically and glared at her.

"Of course you do. Do you really think that I can't afford to buy you one?" He said sternly to her.
