Scarlett Xavier looked at the man who walked up to her and smiled, "Alright."
Trying it on tomorrow works too.
...
In the morning, Julian Rhodes had the shirt Scarlett bought for him sent for washing.
Around noon, after getting out of bed, Julian put on the shirt Scarlett bought for him.
Scarlett remarked, "You have so many shirts, why are you in such a hurry to wear this one?"
She had heard him send it for washing in the morning when the housekeeper was collecting clothes.
Standing in front of the mirror, buttoning up, Julian admired the shirt Scarlett got for him and said, "My wife's taste is really good."
"Pfft..." Scarlett couldn't help but laugh at his teasing. "All men's shirts look the same, what's special about this one?"
He was clearly speaking nonsense.
"The one you bought just looks better."
Scarlett replied, "Not bad, you've improved, you know how to flatter people now."
Who knows who used to be so blunt every day, only knowing how to criticize her.
