Gilda did not care.

Just as Gilda was about to hand her card to the staff, Jackson, standing behind her, quickly stepped forward. “Use this card instead…”
Gilda hastily refused.
“No need, Jackson! I’ll just use mine…”
However, Jackson, with a smile, insisted, “There’s no need to stand on ceremony. Consider this dress a gift from me, hoping your career soars, and this fashion show becomes a sensational success.”
“Huh?” Gilda was surprised and wanted to say more, but Jackson didn’t give her the chance to refuse as he promptly handed his card to the staff.
They just bought a dress at such a high price.

The staff packaged the dress and brought it to Gilda.

Now up close, Gilda couldn’t take her eyes off it.

such a trick.”
Jackson was protective of Gilda and sharply retorted. “Mr. Harrington, are you implying something?”
“I mean exactly what you think I mean,” Jensen replied unyieldingly.
The two men faced each other, neither willing to back down. The tension was palpable.
Gilda smiled lightly. “Mr. Harrington, why are you being a busybody? Or have you forgotten that we’ve long broken up?”
“Gilda, can you really let go of three years of relationship so easily?”
