Milton smiled and nodded, "Of course, my time is all for you."
If that's what Amelia wanted, then he would pretend to be an intimate couple with another woman so she could relax, right?
Maryanne rubbed her head against Milton's arm, and said sweetly, "I know that you are the best!"
Florence pretended to vomit and rolled eyes at Maryanne.
Maryanne looked embarrassed, but knowing Florence was the one with the black card, she didn't want to contradict her, so she said to Amelia, "You came here to buy men's clothes, didn't you? For whom?"
Her words aroused Milton's attention. Yes, this was a men's clothing store.
Amelia felt that there was nothing to hide, so she said frankly, "I want to buy a tie for Patrick."
The smile on Milton's face disappeared. It seemed that the relationship between Amelia and Patrick had progressed very smoothly. Even she, who had always been passive, wanted to take the initiative to give him a gift.
When heard the name "Patrick", Maryanne was not as angry as she had imagined. Instead, she was secretly happy because of the awkwardness between Milton and Amelia.
She used Milton to stimulate Amelia, and also forced Amelia to tell the name of "Patrick" so that Milton would feel uncomfortable! She was happy to see that!
Florence suddenly said to Milton, "Hey, who is she? Is she your girlfriend?"
Milton replied with a slight sound of "Yeah".
Florence stared at Milton, "Your taste is too bad. How could you fall in love with her?"
Milton did not refute, because he also thought so.
Maryanne was irritated, "Miss, do you know me? Do you know my personality and family background? If you don't know anything about me, you don't have the right to judge me!"
Florence smile mockingly, "Well, you two are a perfect couple!"
"Florence..." Amelia pulled Meggie's sleeves and whispered, "Milton is my good friend. Can you stop it?"
Florence shouted, "He is not friendly to my brother! If I don't say so, what if he still pesters you shamelessly?"
Milton looked awful, and that was why he hated Florence, who was so protective of Amelia! He couldn't talk to Amelia anywhere Florence was around!
Amelia had a headache, Florence was a nice girl, but she was too straightforward and often made people uncomfortable.
Forget it. Since the owner of this store was Maryanne, there was no point for them to stay here.
Maryanne didn't welcome her, and Amelia didn't want to buy anything from her!
She greeted Milton, "We still have something to do, so we have to leave now."
"What?" Florence was still waiting to quarrel with them, "We just leave?"
"Well, forget it." Amelia said in a gentle and persistent voice.
At this moment, Maryanne asked provocatively, "Don't you want to buy a tie?"
Florence's fury, which had just calmed down, suddenly flared up again, "D*mn it, it's obvious you..."
"Florence!" Amelia raised her voice and said, "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
