But when he thought about his wife's instructions, he managed to hold back anyway.
After all, how could he resist when the way his wife cajoled him so perfectly aligned with his desires?
"Mom, this dress is too expensive, we shouldn't waste Adam's money like this."
Although Sophie said this, her eyes were looking over at Adam Jones, and her cheeks flushed red.
She was hoping Adam would say something like, "You look good in it, no matter how much it costs, as long as you like it."
But Adam Jones was an utterly romance-challenged straight man. Meeting Sophie's gaze, he couldn't understand her at all and simply looked at his watch before saying,
"You take your time shopping, I'm heading back to the office."
Upon hearing this, a flicker of disappointment crossed Sophie's face.
"You...you won't accompany me shopping?"
A trace of irritation that was almost imperceptible flickered in the depths of Adam's eyes.
