Internet Breaking: The Powerful CEO Reveals His Supermodel Wife-Chapter 565: She Means More Than Anything
"What are you thinking about?"
The sudden voice startled Ava Sterling quite a bit. Even though the voice belonged to Poe Vaughn, she was still frightened.
She hadn’t expected it to be so sudden, and most importantly, wasn’t Poe Vaughn changing clothes?
Is he done changing now?
Upon hearing Poe Vaughn’s voice, Ava Sterling’s body trembled slightly before she froze.
Quickly, she reacted, spun around swiftly, and saw the tall and imposing figure standing just a step behind her.
It was a very close distance, close enough that if he stepped forward, he could be near her.
Ava Sterling was dumbfounded.
He was this close to her, when did he come over?
He...
At that moment, Ava Sterling blinked her eyelashes, and then her gaze fell on Poe Vaughn.
At this moment, Poe Vaughn was wearing a light beige shirt, a very pale color, looking particularly casual, simple, with an air of elegance.
Poe Vaughn’s innate aura was cold and distant, making people afraid to approach, only able to look up to him.
He naturally had a god-like presence that inspired awe and reverence.
When paired with his dark clothes, he appeared even more unattainable, like he was miles away.
But now, he was no longer wearing those heavy dark tones but lighter colors. Even though his trousers were still dark, it felt different.
He seemed much closer, with a taste of the mundane world, no longer feeling like he belonged to a different world from ordinary people.
Most importantly, the clothes on him gave an impression of a cool and aloof professor, making one particularly inclined to touch.
Like a pure white lotus growing on a snowy mountain, it invites you to pick it.
Ava Sterling was astonished.
To be exact, she was amazed.
Yes, amazed.
He looked so incredibly handsome!
So handsome that Ava Sterling forgot what she wanted to do earlier, forgot about the annoying rumors, and all she could see was Poe Vaughn.
Nothing else.
"Wow!"
"Why do you look so good..."
Ava Sterling stuffed her phone into her pocket and her bright and clear eyes scanned Poe Vaughn from top to bottom, observing his perfect body proportions, standard broad shoulders, slim waist, and long legs. No matter how she looked, she couldn’t find a single flaw; he seemed like a drawing.
Indeed, the heavens had favored him too much.
Not only was his face good-looking, but his physique was impeccable, practically a natural clothes hanger.
Ava Sterling quickly moved closer, unable to restrain herself from "hands-on" with Poe Vaughn.
She grasped his hand, examining him from top to bottom, checking if the sleeves were long enough, if the collar fit, if the shoulder width was appropriate, if the waist was tailored well.
Ava Sterling was like a picky designer, carefully examining Poe Vaughn and then circling around him, as if scanning him with an X-ray.
Poe Vaughn stood there without moving, allowing Ava Sterling to look at him.
However, his gaze fell on Ava Sterling’s face, watching her amazement, joy, delight, and excitement, all of which were clearly revealed the moment she saw him.
It was as if the tension and displeasure she showed with her back turned to him earlier were just his imagination.
"Not bad, not bad, really not bad!"
"So handsome!"
"You look really different in this color, a different style. I think you look dashing."
Ava Sterling circled around Poe Vaughn and then came to stand in front of him, looking up at him with a particularly bright smile.
Clearly, she was especially satisfied and proud that Poe Vaughn wore the color she picked, which made him even more handsome.
Poe Vaughn looked at the person in front of him, her eyes filled with happiness, like overflowing honey, sweet to his heart.
"Hmm."
Ava Sterling’s smile grew wider, and she quickly took out her phone, leaned against Poe Vaughn, and took a selfie of them together. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
As soon as Ava Sterling leaned against Poe Vaughn, his long arms reached out, resting on her waist, automatically pulling her into his embrace.
He looked at the people in the phone, himself and her.
She was smiling, very happy.
The salesperson quickly brought out the sizes of the other clothes and pants Ava Sterling wanted, and there were no more calls coming in for her. She directly let Poe Vaughn go to change, piece by piece, and after he changed, she carefully inspected him from top to bottom, then leaned against him for photos.
She took a photo of every outfit he wore.
Because he looked too stunning, it had to be saved on her phone!
This way, Ava Sterling and Poe Vaughn stayed in the store for about an hour.
And for the outfits that looked good on Poe Vaughn and that Ava Sterling thought were particularly nice, she had the salesperson wrap them up.
Poe Vaughn took out a card to pay, but Ava Sterling quickly stopped him, saying promptly, "I’ll pay!"
She quickly grabbed his hand, that was really fast.
Poe Vaughn’s hand was held, and the card was restrained.
He looked at her.
Ava Sterling held his hand firmly, her expression serious: "I said I’ll buy them for you; you are not allowed to pay!"
Without waiting for Poe Vaughn to respond, Ava Sterling swiftly pulled out her card for the salesperson.
The salesperson had already been grinning from ear to ear because Ava Sterling was buying a lot.
This was quite substantial for their commissions; how could they not be happy?
However, the salesperson hadn’t expected Ava Sterling to pay and wouldn’t let Poe Vaughn pay.
But after learning that Poe Vaughn had said Ava Sterling was his wife and they were husband and wife, it didn’t seem surprising anymore.
As husband and wife, it didn’t matter who paid.
"Alright, ma’am."
The salesperson received Ava Sterling’s card with both hands and processed the transaction directly.
In no time, the receipt was printed for Ava Sterling to sign.
Ava Sterling didn’t look at the amount; she just signed with a flourish, that was quick.
She wasn’t a stingy person, nor someone who spent money recklessly.
She only spent money where she thought it should be spent and was worth it; she wouldn’t spend where she didn’t think it was necessary or where she didn’t want to.
But today, spending money on Poe Vaughn, she felt very content.
She didn’t think it was unnecessary spending.
She thought this money was well-spent, especially since Poe Vaughn looked particularly great in these clothes and pants.
Since she picked them herself, no matter how much it cost, it was worth it!
"Ma’am, here is your receipt, please keep it safe."
The salesperson handed the receipt to Ava Sterling with particular respect.
"Alright, could you please send these to the hotel for us?"
Ava Sterling accepted the receipt and said directly; having bought so much, it was impossible for them to carry everything, so having it sent to the hotel would suffice.
"Of course."
Ava Sterling didn’t say much more. She put the receipt and card in her bag and then took Poe Vaughn’s arm, her smile beaming, saying, "Let’s go, let’s keep shopping!"
Poe Vaughn had been standing beside Ava Sterling the whole time, holding the card, and his eyes were constantly on her, watching her straightforwardness, decisiveness, and lack of hesitation.
He had never shopped, never personally selected clothes like this. He didn’t need to.
There was no need to do such time-wasting things, or to spend energy on these pointless matters.
He had more important things to do, things more worthy of his time.
Such meaningless tasks had never been part of his life.
Yet today, shopping with Ava Sterling, doing something he once deemed meaningless, he didn’t find it unpleasant.
He watched her weave through clothes, as she selected each piece herself, as she scrutinized and compared, then seeing his try-ons with her joyful laughter, that amazement and delight; he felt it wasn’t a waste of time or pointless.
This was truly wonderful.
It was extremely meaningful.
Even more so, better than what used to be his number one priority: work.
Yes, without knowing when it began, she had already outweighed everything else in his heart.
With her here, nothing else mattered.
