Chapter 115
Leslie handed the beige dress back to Aurelia and cleared his throat. “Go try it on.”
“Alright.”
Aurelia could already sense the curious stares from the staff members.
She felt incredibly embarrassed.
She took the dress and tiptoed into a fitting room.
Just then, a staff member approached and knocked on the door.
“Miss, we have disposable slippers here. Do you want a pair?”
“Yes, thank you.”
“You’re welcome. It was the gentleman’s thoughtful idea. We’ll return the wheelchair to the service
desk.”
“Alright.”
How could he be so considerate?
Aurelia hesitated for a moment before opening the door and accepting the disposable slippers from the
staff member.
“Miss, here’s a clean towel. I noticed you were sweating, so I bought it for you.”
“Thank you.”

Aurelia took the towel. She knew the staff had probably noticed the coffee stains on her clothes and
wanted to prevent her from dirtying the white dress in the store.
However, their tactfulness and thoughtfulness didn’t make Aurelia feel repulsed.
Clearly, they were professionally trained attendants.
Aurelia wiped herself down, then put on the dress.
She expected the zipper not to budge, but it zipped up instantly.
What was going on? When she tried on clothes before, this size never fit.
She remembered it clearly.
On her birthday last year, she invited Seth to dinner, but he had completely forgotten her birthday.
She wasn’t particularly bothered, but Seth insisted on taking her to a mall to shop as compensation.
At that time, she needed to meet a client who was very particular about appearance, so she agreed to
Seth’s suggestion to buy a better outfit.
She saw a beige long dress that cost eighty after discount. The fabric and style were both excellent.
When she said she wanted to try it on, Seth said he would get her a fitting size.
However, she couldn’t zip it up, and she didn’t want to use too much force in fear of breaking
In the end, she had to take it off.
At the time, she complained to Seth, “I’m not fat. Why can’t I fit into a size M?”
Seth laughed. “You’re not fat? What girl wears a size M? The girls I’ve seen all wear S or XS. But it’s
okay I like you just the way you are.”
He then handed her a black dress.
“This black one looks slimming and it suits you well. It conveniently covers your little belly and thick
legs.”
Maybe it was because Seth repeatedly called her fat, she subconsciously thought she might have
gained weight.
She bought that black dress that day. It was twenty-six dollars after discount.
Now, looking at herself in the mirror, Aurelia couldn’t quite believe it.
The long dress accentuated her waist beautifully. It was feminine without appearing too
mature.
The V-neck design didn’t reveal too much. Instead, it delicately showcased her collarbone, making her
look exceptionally elegant.
Aurelia twirled in place like a young girl wearing a dress for the first time.
She then thought about the time Seth bought her clothes. She couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

They were also the same size, but she remembered that the dress that she tried on with Seth felt at
least two sizes smaller.
“That cunning jerk!” she thought.
In order to buy her a cheaper dress, he swiped the dress for a smaller size while she wasn’t looking.
Recalling all the memories she shared with Seth, there was nothing but misery and unsavory schemes.
Seth was the one who pursued her. If he didn’t love her, why did he do that?
They met at an event when she was still an intern.
She didn’t know a thing and Seth was the one who helped her out.
Afterward, Seth found her through her colleagues and started pursuing her.
Everyone told her that she got lucky because not many men would go after women so boldly. After all,
it would be embarrassing if they failed.
Seth was understanding and caring when he was pursuing Aurelia. Otherwise, her parents would’ve
never agreed to them dating.
Once they started dating, Seth was clearly not as passionate anymore.
However, Aurelia put value on relationships and trusted him.
