The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1888

Hearing this, Holley gave a hearty smile, "Sure!"

They grabbed some food and then changed before they hit the streets. After all, they had plenty of time to kill before the movie started.

There was a saying that "Pregnant women care about their looks the most," but Black never believed that until now. Watching Holley pick out and try dresses on with much joy, he was convinced the saying was true.

"Black, what do you think of this dress?" Holley was wearing a black one-piece dress, which looked dashing and sexy on her. She turned around slowly, letting him see how the fabric hugged her curves perfectly.

Black frowned a bit. After hesitating for a while, he voiced his observation cautiously, "Holley, now that you are pregnant, don't you think such a tight piece could create some restraint on the fetus?"

Hearing Black's comment, Holley felt a little displeased. She really liked that piece, and it had looked great on her when she had checked herself out in the mirror earlier.

Although Holley hid her displeasure well and it only lasted a split second, Black was still able to catch it. Folding her into his arms for some canoodling, he softly said, "You were saying?" Feeling intoxicated by his hug, Holley held her head high as she stared up at his face.

Finding Holley's reaction so amusing, Black gesture for the sales assistant to come over. "We will take it."

"Of course, Mr.Hu." The sales assistant naturally knew Black, and seeing that he had just picked out the most expensive dress in the boutique, she definitely felt overjoyed.

"Thank you," Holley said, "for being so nice to me." She had set her eyes on this dress for a long time, but she had never wanted to buy it herself. So Holley certainly would take the opportunity when Black offered to buy it for her.

Seeing that Black was now being nice to her, Holley would grab whatever chance she had, since she wasn't sure how long he would be treating her this nicely.

"It would be my pleasure. You don't need to be this polite. I would have been upset if you had ended up rejecting my gift." Black stared at Holley, pretending to be annoyed by her politeness.

Coming around, Holley nodded slightly. She felt extremely happy inside.

The day seemed never-ending. They had gone from one shop to the next, and Black ended up paying for whatever item that caught Holley's fancy. None of them had ever had that much fun shopping in the past, so it had been a great experience.

Looking at his watch, Black saw they still have two hours before the movie was due to start. "Would you like to have dinner now?" he asked. Holley nodded with a smile. Holding Holley's hand, he led her to the restaurant a few feet ahead, not expecting that they would bump into Isla.

Ever since Sheryl had gone on vacation, Isla had been very busy.

In the past, Isla had only handled the relationships with their customers, while Sheryl had taken care of fixing and executing contracts. However, Sheryl's sudden leave had caught her completely off guard.

Luckily, today was not as hectic as the previous couple of days, so Isla had managed to sneak out to have dinner with Aron, unaware of the unpleasant encounter awaiting her.

Seeing Holley and Black from afar, Isla immediately noticed how they held hands as they chatted and smiled their way into the restaurant.

There were rumors that Holley had hooked up with someone from the Hu's. Today, she confirmed that it was true.

"Black, I want to have this!"

Sitting at a table right next to theirs, Isla could hear their conversation clearly. She could not help but feel like she was going to vomit.

"Isla, what's wrong?" Aron, who was sitting in front of her, was confused by Isla's expression. They had ordered all of her favorite food, so he wasn't sure why she looked like she was about to throw up.

Hearing Aron's question, Isla was brought back from her loathing. "Do you see that couple on our left?" she asked unpleasantly.
