Chapter 4 After All You Can’t Afford It
Merak Cosmetics Zone
Aurelia , Cathy , and Liana walked hand in hand in front, followed by Briar and Larry , who were arm in arm, carrying shopping bags and looked exhausted.
Finally, Briar couldn’t help but patted the three women on the shoulders and said, “Ladies, I’ve never seen you work so hard during long-distance running. Why don’t you have any intention of taking a break when you’re shopping?”
“With your physical strength, it’s a pity your parents gave you such a tall stature.” Liana grabbed a handbag from his hand, which relieved the pressure on him.
Aurelia pointed to a counter in front, “See? We’re here. This is the last stop.”
Briar breathed a sigh of relief and clasped her hands together, “Thank you, three sisters.”
“It’s okay. I’ll treat you to dinner later!” Cathy raised the handbag she had just bought to show that she had money.
Briar thought of something and suddenly became excited, “You said that!”
Alioth’s building is all about food, and the fifth floor is noble, luxurious, low-key and meaningful. Simply put, it’s high-end!
“Except for Alioth on the fifth floor, the others are all fine.” Cathy’s words broke Briar ‘s fantasy.
Alioth is all VIP rooms. Not only do you need to spend a minimum amount, but no matter what dish you want to eat, there will be a professional chef to serve you one-on-one. If you are lucky, you can even order a Michelin three-star chef!
Consumption… Few people can afford Evercrest .
Briar tilted her neck, rolled her eyes, stuck out her tongue, and made a dead expression, “Save it for yourself. Below the fifth floor, I’ll treat you to as much food as you want.”
The other people were amused by his actions. Aurelia patted his shoulder and said, “We’re here, we’re here. There’s a sofa over there. Sit down and take a rest.”
Three girls came to the counter and chattered. The salesperson saw the box set in Aurelia ‘s hand and said with a smile, “Hello, ma’am. This box set is a hot item here. We only have this one left. If you like it, you’d better seize the opportunity.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Ah! This is the last set.
Aurelia looked at the price tag with distressed look: 129, 999. Should she buy it?
Briar leaned on the sofa and said silently, ” Sheridan Buddy , I don’t know what you, an invisible female billionaire who rides a seven or eight-digit mount every day, are still hesitating about. It’s just a few hundred thousand! This time I have the final say. If you like it so much, just buy it!”
Aurelia said helplessly, “The car is not mine, I’m just using it temporarily!” Yes, no matter whether it is a seven-digit or eight-digit mount, it all belongs to her Hubby , not her, so she has nothing to show off.
At this moment, there was a commotion not far away.
Aurelia looked up reflexively. She was shocked when she saw it.
Several people walked in from the main entrance. The man in the lead was wearing an expensive, well-cut dark custom suit that highlighted his tall figure. His dark brown crocodile leather shoes made a slight sound as they stepped on the polished marble floor.
Those deep eyes were without any fluctuation, and the domineering and coldness emanating from his bones made people unable to help but retreat three feet away.
So, this domineering, cool, and noble man is Finnegan … Oh, no! It’s actually Hubby ?! He is accompanied by a beautiful woman with fair skin and a great body!
It is rare to hear that Young Master Finnegan has a woman around him, but this time he brought her out for a stroll in public. Could it be that the two of them are about to get married?
As if he had noticed her gaze, the man within three meters glanced over. When their eyes met, Aurelia’s heart skipped a beat and she looked down at her lipstick in panic.
Don’t see me, don’t see me.
No! He didn’t know her.
Thinking of this, Aurelia pretended to be calm and asked Cathy next to her , ” Cathy , do you think this color suits me?”
Cathy answered the question irrelevantly and tugged at her sleeve excitedly, ” Aurelia , Aurelia , you and Young Master Finnegan are really destined to be together!”
This… seems like it.
Liana : ” Aurelia , who is the woman next to Young Master Finnegan ?”
She wanted to know too.
Briar : ” Sheridan Buddy , do you think Young Master Finnegan is here to see you?”
How can it be!
Aurelia looked at the other two women who she admired more than her with despair , ” Cathy ! Your saliva is dripping!”
Before Cathy could respond, a clear and unfamiliar voice answered her question, “I don’t think it’s suitable. After all, you can’t afford it.”
Aurelia looked up in confusion. Wasn’t the woman talking to her the one next to Callum ?
Do they know each other?
Aidan Monroe, with dark brown curly hair, took Callum ‘s arm and came in front of them. He stretched out his slender jade fingers with brown manicure and elegantly took the lipstick box from Aurelia ‘s arms. His lips painted with the most popular dark red lipstick opened slightly, “I want this, pack it for me!”
After saying that, he looked at Aurelia wantonly.
At the end, he gave a disdainful smile, and it was obvious at first glance that he was just a college student pretending to be innocent.
I really don’t know why Young Master Finnegan looked at this woman so many times. Although she is pretty, she is obviously not as pretty as me, okay?
Aurelia ‘s temper flared up instantly. “What’s that look? How do you know I can’t afford it? You only have fancy clothes, what else is there to see?”
Aurelia ‘s words were simply a slap in Aidan ‘s face. Aidan ‘s face immediately turned ugly, “Where did this poor student come from? Before coming to EliteMart , he didn’t even check his status to see if he was worthy of entering such a high-end mall!”
Aurelia sneered and looked Aidan up and down. “Humph, we are not worthy, so are you? Who gave you the confidence to look down on others? You can only pull off this dark green outfit because you are older. If you were a girl like us, you wouldn’t wear this dark green old lady style!”
Well! Her words about the dark green old lady fashion style not only offended Aidan , but also offended Callum implicitly . Because the dress Aidan was wearing was picked out by Callum just now . Although he just pointed at it casually, it was still the style he pointed at and paid for! Therefore, she was also indirectly saying that Callum had an old-fashioned taste…
Actually, to be honest, Aidan is only 27 and a half years old this year, and the clothes he is wearing are quite nice, but they don’t have that kind of effect when worn by Aidan .
Aidan is pale and thin, and because of her thinness, the dress cannot support her.
Simply put, anyone else might look n times better in it than she does!
These words really irritated Aidan . As the most favored princess of the Monroe Family , everyone would say nice things to her! No one had ever mocked her like Aurelia did!
Thinking that he had a solid backing today, Aidan took a deep breath, turned around and walked to Callum , looking at him pitifully, ” Mr. Finnegan , look at that woman who said we were old and that you had an old-fashioned vision.”
