Black and Red Compliment Each Other the Most
Seeing her surprised expression, Sophia knew that she was very satisfied with the dress and was
relieved. “When I first received President Fuller’s request for me to design a dress for you, Miss Reed, I
once proposed to meet you in person. After all, I can design a better dress only by seeing you and
understanding your preferences, but I was rejected by President Fuller.”
At this, Sophia felt a little regretful. “So, I had no choice but to learn about you only through the internet
or from others. Then, after many modifications, I ended up with this dress. At first, I was worried if you
would like it or if the dress would suit you, but now, after meeting you, I understand that I had been
worrying for nothing. The dress suits you very well.”
“Why didn’t you let me meet with Ms. Sophia?” Sonia put down her dress and looked at the man in
confusion.
Sophia was not a man, so what was the problem with them meeting up? He couldn’t be jealous of a
woman, and an older one at that, could he? If that was the case, he was too petty. At that thought,
Sonia stared at Toby, her gaze turning contemptful.
When Toby understood the meaning behind her gaze, his thin lips twitched slightly. “What are you
thinking? I just wanted to give you a surprise.”
“A surprise?” Sonia raised her eyebrows.
Toby hummed in reply. “I wanted to give you a dress that would amaze you at first glance, so of course
I couldn’t let you meet Sophia. If you do, Sophia would ask you what styles you like, and there would
be no surprises when she finishes the dress by then because you would already know what it looks
like. You would only feel surprised if you were kept in the dark until the end.”
“All right, I misunderstood you earlier.” Sonia smiled apologetically, then asked, “But if you kept it from
me and didn’t let me participate in the design of the dress, aren’t you afraid that I wouldn’t like it, just
like Ms. Sophia said?”
“No.” Toby shook his head and said with certainty, “I’ve complimented you to Sophia, so she’ll know
what kind of dress she has to design for you. That’s why I wasn’t worried about any problems with the
dress she designed.”
Sonia’s forehead creased with a frown. “Those compliments of yours…”
When she thought of Sophia’s assistant translating Toby’s compliments that used nothing but praises to
describe her earlier, she was filled with embarrassment again.
“Were my compliments wrong?” Toby spread his hands slightly. “Sophia did tell me that it’s not easy to
design a dress if she hasn’t seen you before. Later, I told her that it’s okay to design in the most
beautiful and gorgeous way, just like my compliments to you, so…”
He stopped speaking and only lifted his gaze to look at Sophia.
After listening to her assistant’s translation, Sophia nodded with a smile. “Yes, Miss Reed. At first, when
President Fuller didn’t let me meet you, I didn’t know how to design the dress. Even though I learned
about you from the internet and other people, it was a bit difficult for me to design a dress for you. In
the end, I couldn’t help but contact President Fuller again, and he gave me some pointers, which is
how this dress came to be.”
Sonia glared at him playfully. “Aren’t you scared that I’m not good enough for the prettiest and fanciest
design?”
“You’re good enough.” Toby nodded confidently. “To me, you’re good enough for all the good things in
the world, so I was never worried that the dress Sophia designed for you wouldn’t suit you. Look.” He
lowered his gaze, his eyes falling on the dress in her hands. “As you can see, I wasn’t wrong. The
dress suits you very well. Besides, you look better in red than blue.”
“Really?” Sonia tilted her head and looked at him flirtingly.
Toby’s throat bobbed a little as he replied hoarsely, “Yes. I wouldn’t lie to you.”
Sophia agreed, “Miss Reed, it’s true. I think that a passionate, fiery red suits you very well too.”
Sonia was pleased and couldn’t hide the shyness from her face as she said, “Since it suits me, I guess
I’ll buy more red clothes in the future.”
“Good idea.” Toby nodded, his dark eyes brightening.
Clearly, he agreed with her and supported her idea very much. He liked black, and most of his clothes
were usually black, whether it was a suit or a shirt. Only a fraction of it were other colors, but other than
white, they were mostly dull colors such as gray, and he never wore these clothes if he could help it.
In short, he basically only wore black, and black and red had always been a perfect match, much more
so than black and white. The dark and mysterious black and the seductive and enchanting red were a
much better fit, while a pure color like white was not worthy of his black.
“What are you thinking about?” Upon seeing him spacing out, Sonia waved her hand in front of his
face.
Toby blinked as he returned to his senses, and his voice was still hoarse as he replied, “Nothing much.
I was just thinking about what you’d look like wearing the dress. You’ll definitely look gorgeous.”
Saying that, he looked at her with a heated gaze.
His gaze made Sonia feel uneasy all over, as if she were a piece of meat that was about to be
devoured by him. Her face turned red as she said, “I haven’t even tried it on, so how would you know it
would look good? All right, I won’t argue with you anymore. I’m going to try this on with Ms. Sophia.
Hold my bag and wait for me here.”
Sonia smiled at Sophia before they walked toward the fitting room nearby together with the assistant,
as it was difficult for someone to put on a dress alone. In particular, a single wear dress such as this
was very fragile in itself, and if someone used too much force, the zipper or hand-stitched thread would
easily fall apart. Therefore, when putting on a dress, it was usually best to have someone around to
help.
Sophia was the designer and maker of the dress, and the assistant was still responsible for translating
from the side. With the help of two people, Sonia easily changed into the dress. Then, she turned
around and looked at the amazement in their eyes. She was just about to ask how she looked, but she
suddenly found it difficult to. From their reactions, she already knew that the dress looked extremely
good on her.
Sure enough, after Sophia came back to her senses, she held Sonia’s hand in surprise and excitement.
“Oh, my dear, you look absolutely gorgeous. This dress suits you so well. I designed this blindly by
listening to a certain man’s exaggerated descriptions when I hadn’t met you yet, and I thought
President Fuller was lying to me, but now I know that he wasn’t, and what he said was true. He also
indirectly helped me improve my design skills. My dear, meeting you and President Fuller really is my
greatest fortune.”
Upon Sophia flushing red with excitement, the smile on Sonia’s face turned reluctant as her red lips
opened to say something, but she didn’t know where to start. That was because she wanted to say that
Toby did lie to her. With Toby’s exaggerated compliments, who would be able to design an appropriate
dress?
Now that Sophia was able to come up with a design, it was because of her highly honed design skills,
and it had nothing to do with Toby. After all, designers didn’t always design clothes specifically for
someone. They often designed them as long as they had the inspiration. Even if many people couldn’t
wear the clothes they came up with, there would always be one person who could. Just like this time,
when Toby asked Sophia to blindly design Sonia’s dress, it just happened to be just right for her. It was
that simple. Hence, it was illogical to say that Toby had helped to improve Sophia’s design skills.
