She then turned to the staff and gestured, "Hi, he'll take this set too, please." "You're both so sweet," the staff said with a smile, "and you have impeccable taste, ma'am. The styles you chose are the trendiest this season, and the gentleman's physique brings out the best of the clothes." The other staff members nodded in agreement.
The two of them exchanged a quick glance at each other after the staff members mistook them for a couple. Recalling Sherman's earlier words in the office, Rita waved her hands in embarrassment. "You've got it all wrong. We're not a couple." For sreason, Rita felt a pang of discontent as she corrected Sherman. He, however, remained silent and showed no inclination to clarify matters.
The staff glanced at the two of them before finally remarking knowingly, "I see. He must still be trying to win your heart. In that case, you should just accept him, ma'am! There might be plenty of handsmen out there, but none as handsas he is." Rita was at a loss for words and looked to Sherman as if urging him to explain. After all, he was the one who had advised her not to overthink things, yet he stood there like a statue and made no effort whatsoever to clarify the situation.
"It is a misunderstanding. Our relationship is purely professional. We're just colleagues," Sherman finally interjected.

"Why are you still looking at other clothes? We've bought everything we needed. Let's go. It's tto call it a day," said Rita.
Sherman took the paper shopping
bags that the staff handed over to him. Rita then noticed the plethora of bags Sherman was carrying and offered to take some. "I can help you hold a couple of bags." After seeing her earnestness, Sherman handed her a gift box with a tie inside. "Here."
Rita smiled. "It makes no difference if I'm carrying something this light! Are 8m you underestimating me? Letyou! help you carry sof those bags. They're going to be very heavy if you carry them all by yourself." Jiggle Bounce Which do you prefer? ビビッド
