?Chapter 1387:


    Jessica sighed for what felt like the hundredth time. Dense as ever.


    After that, they didn’t talk much. Melvin kept his focus on the road while Jessica idly yed on her phone in the passenger seat.


    Once they got home, he helped her carry everything upstairs.


    Just as he was about to head into the study, Jessica called out, “Wait.”


    He paused and turned slightly. “Something else?”


    “I bought you some clothes. Try them on and show me.” She handed him two shopping bags, eyes twinkling. “It’s my first time picking out clothes for a guy. I want to see if they fit.”


    “I’ve already got clothes.”


    “Just try them on.”


    “Alright…” Melvin took the bags without protest and headed off to change.


    Jessica carried her own things into the bedroom, then came back and flopped onto the sofa to wait for him.


    Melvin wore suits every single day—he didn’t even own anything casual.


    A few minutester, he finally stepped out, wearing the clothes she had picked for him.


    Melvin was dressed in a soft cream sweater and light-colored cks—an outfit that toned down his usual distant vibe and lent him a younger, more approachable charm. Wearing this, he looked like a throwback to his student days.


    “You should dress like this when you’re off the clock,” Jessica suggested, admiring his handsome face that looked like it belonged in a fashion ad. “Don’t always walk around in stiff suits and ties.”


    “It doesn’t feel natural to me,” Melvin replied, sticking to his usual blunt style. He did have casual wear, but rarely in such light shades. His outerwear was always dark; only the shirts underneath ever came in white.


    Jessica teased with a glint in her eye, “Don’t you like the clothes I gave you?”


    “It’s not that.”


    м?г? υρ??т?? ?т g?l????l?.???


    “Then you do like them?”


    “Yes.”


    “Will you wear them again?” Jessica pressed, curious.


    Melvin had been about to say no, but when his eyes met her clear gaze, tinged with quiet pride, he gave in and replied obediently, “I will.”


    “That’s more like it,” Jessica said with a satisfied smile.


    Over the next two days, Melvin didn’t go in to work.


    Jessica had been meaning to ask why, but seeing that he genuinely seemed free, she dragged him out for a shopping spree thatsted all day.


    They picked out clothes for every asion—work, exercise, and just lounging at home.


    The fun part? Every time she bought something for him, she’d secretly pick a matching piece for herself, making them look like a couple with subtly coordinated outfits.


    By the end of the day, Jessica was still bouncing with energy, while Melvin looked slightly worn out.<fnf965> This content belongs to find·novel</fnf965>
