“No way. I’m going for the most expensive one out there so as not to lose out to her!” Susan shot Yulia’s black clutch a look of disdain as she took a crocodile leather bag that sells for six figures off the shelf.
Yulia couldn’t help but laughed as she whispered in Natalie’s ear. “Is she dumb or what, Baby Girl? The purpose of Mr. Lanner’s charity gala is to raise funds for wildlife animals. Wouldn’t it be like a slap to Mike’s face if she chose that bag? Things are going to get interesting tonight.”
“Well then, you’ll have to tell me all about it tonight, Mom.”
“Don’t worry, I will.” Yulia winked.
Susan didn’t know what the both of them were talking about as she walked over with the bag. “I want this, darling.”
Harrison frowned when he saw the price. He was about to deny her the bag and get her to pick a new one when her face changed. She wasn’t about to let him off the hook if he denies her the bag.
Hence, Harrison agreed to it as he was sick and tired of her antics.
Susan threw a victorious smile in Yulia’s and Natalie’s direction. “Someone never receives a gift this expensive besides being his wife of twenty over years.”
Yulia’s face darkened upon hearing that.
“Mom…” Natalie gave her a worried look.
Yulia shook her head to indicate that she was fine. She looked at Susan coldly and said, “You’re right, I’ve never received any of those, not that I care either. You should enjoy it while you can.”
“What do you mean?” Susan felt disturbed by her words.
Yulia ignored her as she turned to face Harrison. “Harrison, you should look into what your wife has been up to these days. I heard that wives of wealthy men like to spend their money on young hunks these days. I wonder if your wife is into it as well?”
She left with Natalie right after driving a wedge between them.
One could easily imagine just how intense Susan and Harrison’s quarrel will be in a bit.
