Chapter 0185 Chapter 0185 Ella POV "He is a difficult man to shop for," Elizabeth said as we left our fourth stop empty-handed.
"I think I'm making it more difficult than it needs to be," I admitted, frustration seeping into my tone. "I just want to get something that will really make an impact on him, and nothing feels right.” "Well, we still have plenty of stores to check," she reassured me. "And if we don't find anything here, we've got the rest of the city to try." "I can't drag James shopping around the entire city," I said, glancing back at him sympathetically.

"You have to say that-it's your job," I argued, narrowing my eyes. "But I can tell how miserable you are." "I'm really not," he said, laughing lightly.
"Well, that's good because this is turning into quite the ordeal," I sighed. "Who would've thought it'd be so difficult to find a gift for him?” "He never asks for anything," James said with a shrug. "And he's not that particular about most things. It's not like he has a signature cologne or a favorite type of accessory. I've never put much thought into what a good gift for him would be, but now that I have, it seems impossible to decide." "It's just like James says," Elizabeth chimed in, her voice tinged with curiosity. "I've known Alexander socially for years, and yet I can't think of a single thing." "You know, we visited his family hthis week," I said, almost to myself. "I saw his childhood bedroom. You'd think that would givesinsight, but it was just as plain and minimal as his office. It gavenothing." "You've been together for a while now," Elizabeth said thoughtfully, her expression sharpening. "I mean, you're getting married. You have to have sidea of what he likes." "Fine wine, good food, bespoke clothing," I said, listing each with growing exasperation. “But those are so impersonal. I could try taking him out to dinner, but he'd insist on paying. And it's not like I can sneak to his tailor and buy him a-" An idea struckmid-sentence, and I let my words trail off as I focused on it. Could it actually work? "What is it?" Elizabeth asked, her brow furrowing when I fell silent. "Did you have an idea, or did you swallow a bug?" I laughed, realizing my mouth was still slightly open. Elizabeth's teasing was lighthearted, and I didn't take it to heart.
"What if I did go to his tailor?" I suggested, the idea taking form as I spoke. "He'd already have all of Alexander's measurements, and he could helpdesign something. He'd have a sense of what Alexander likes, right?" Elizabeth considered this for a moment, tilting her head. "That's not a bad thought. Though, I have to say, Alexander probably owns enough suits to last him several lifetimes.” "What if it were for a specific occasion?" I countered, my excitement growing. "The suit could be part of the gift, and the occasion he wore it for could be the other part." "Oh, like a special suit for a special date night?" Elizabeth said, her face lighting up. "Now that's a cute idea. You'd just have to cup with the perfect date." 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 0185 "Great," I said with a sigh, though a smile tugged at my lips.
