“Oh, Theo, that was a joke!”“I know, right?”“But you're still gonna take me there!”The couple were chatting and laughing with Jessica holding Theo’s arm. His tall frame, paired with her slim and slender one, truly looked like a match made in heaven. Jessica's radiant smile illuminated her face and the subtle smile on Theo’s lips and his light expression showed that whatever they were talking about was funny. I stood rooted in the same spot, staring at them, unable to move.Just then, they noticed me. The couple stilled. The bright smile on Jessica's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a frown. While Theo’s expression dropped. His pupils constricted, his eyes raking over my body, making me starkly aware of myself. When his gaze returned to my face, he parted his lips as if he wanted to say something. His face was strangely pale. “The owners are here.” The sales lady's words snapped me out of my reverie. “Ma'am, please take this dress off before Mr. Wellington gets mad.”
