Matthew checked his phone and then answered, "I'll get it."

Erica sat up straight and watched as he walked to the door.

She heard Paige's voice.

"Mr. Matthew, we've brought everything that you had asked for. And the chefs are here too."

"Good." Matthew entered the living room first.

Paige walked in after him, followed by several others, all carrying boxes in their hands. The two chefs at the back of the group went straight to the kitchen.

Matthew called out to Erica, "Come and have a Look."

Four people carried in two racks of clothes-evening dresses of different styles and colors.

Paige opened one of the wooden cases which was filled with stylish shoes, and several brocade boxes beside it were filled with all kinds of jewelry.

All Erica had to do was choose.

She looked at Matthew in astonishment and asked him in a low voice, "Is the auction that grand? Do I need to be dressed so formally?"

“Not really. These are simple dresses." In Matthew's eyes, these were not the kind of evening dresses a woman would wear at a grand banquet.

It was suitable for special activities and small parties.

‘Whatever you say, ' Erica thought with a smile. She walked to the clothes rack and tried to choose the best one. She asked the man behind her, “Isn't it still too early? I have classes this afternoon."

“Pick the dress now. You won't have to do it in a hurry later. After class, you can have dinner and then do your hairdressing. I think you can make it in time that way." Matthew had arranged everything in advance.

“Alright !"

With his help, Erica carried a few dresses upstairs and tried them on.

Finally, she decided on a light pink Korean dress with a short front and a long back hemline.

It was a halter dress, with her collarbones and shoulders slightly exposed, and the hemline was embroidered with flower petals.

She chose crystal stilettos to go with the dress.

Erica didn't pay much attention to the jewelry. She didn’t need to wear a necklace since it was a halter dress, and she preferred the earrings which she was already wearing. She also picked out a platinum bracelet to go with the crystal shoes and the pink dress.

Post Lunch, the chocolate batter in the fridge was frozen. Erica took out a chocolate bar and bit into it. Matthew's handmade chocolate was yummier than the ones sold outside!

She grabbed a square piece and brought it near Matthew's mouth.

“Have a taste of your own cooking. It's so delicious!"

After hesitating for a moment, he finally opened his mouth.
