Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Sugar Daddy Style

If Vera Xavier knew what Nathaniel Nathan was thinking right now, she would probably faint from shock.

This was a relatively conservative era, so holding hands easily drew attention. But Vera Xavier and Nathaniel Nathan were both so strikingly good-looking that they were a beautiful sight together. So, while many people stared, most looks were filled with envy and well wishes.

Nathaniel Nathan led her directly to the third floor, which was entirely dedicated to women’s clothing.

It housed many of the era’s top brands. None of them were cheap, but of course, the styles and quality were excellent.

A salesclerk saw them enter and immediately greeted them with enthusiasm. Nathaniel Nathan gestured for her to go try on some clothes. Once inside the fitting room, she glanced at a price tag and her heart ached.

All she had on her was the five hundred yuan Zachary Preston had given her. A single dress here could wipe out her entire savings!

She let out a soft sigh. ’I’ll just pick the cheapest one later.’

She was trying on a snow-white dress. The hem was embroidered with delicate pink flowers.

When she opened the door after changing, Nathaniel Nathan’s eyes lit up. He had always known she was beautiful, but because Rona Langdon mistreated her, she usually wore drab, dreary clothes.

The salesclerk immediately came over. “Wow, how beautiful! You look like you just stepped out of a painting. Many people have tried on this dress, but no one has ever looked as good in it as you do.”

The salesclerk wasn’t just flattering Vera Xavier. Vera had a classic, gentle, and graceful beauty, and the dress perfectly complemented her aura, bringing her loveliness to full display.

Vera Xavier also thought the dress was nice and was about to ask the salesclerk to wrap it up when Nathaniel Nathan picked out another dress—a red one—and handed it to her. “Try this one on, too.”

Everyone has a love for beauty. Seeing that the cut and style of the red dress were also excellent, Vera Xavier did as he said and went to try it on. When she came out, she left Nathaniel Nathan stunned all over again.

In the white dress, she was like an orchid in a secluded valley—serene and exquisite. But in this red dress, she looked like a completely different person—fiery and passionate, like a rose with thorns.

The salesclerk praised her again and again. “Miss, you have such a wonderful aura, a great figure, and beautiful looks! This red dress looks amazing on you, too!”

Vera Xavier didn’t think much of the comment, but Nathaniel Nathan was delighted. ’Of course,’ he thought. ’Could the girl I’ve set my sights on be anything less than perfect?’

He took two more outfits from the rack and handed them to her. “Try these on as well.”

This time, the clothes were a bit more androgynous, but Vera Xavier pulled them off just as well, giving her a sharp and free-spirited look.

Every time Nathaniel Nathan saw her in a new outfit, he felt like he was seeing her for the first time.

Vera Xavier tried on ten or so outfits and was starting to feel tired. She planned to just pick the cheapest one and be done with it, but when she came out after changing, she found Nathaniel Nathan already holding all the clothes in large and small bags.

She froze for a moment. The salesclerk was beaming. “Your boyfriend is so good to you! He bought everything!”

Vera Xavier couldn’t help but shudder, then she grabbed Nathaniel Nathan’s hand. “This is way too much!”

For her wedding to Wesley Kane, Rona Langdon, who had never cared for her, had only provided enough floral fabric for an old tailor to make a single new dress. After the wedding was called off, Rona Langdon had even taken that dress away and given it to Cara Preston.

Her own clothes were indeed quite old and worn. They were all things she had brought from the Xavier Family home. The Xaviers had been farmers for generations; they were poor and couldn’t afford to buy her new clothes.
