"What do you think, Kevin?" Claire was more willing to hear her brother's opinion. In her eyes, Kevin was a man close to perfection. She liked him better than Leena. If he was not her brother, she would have definitely fallen for him.
"This one is perfect on you. Don't you think so?" Kevin glanced at her from head to toe. He thought that the skirt Leena chose for her was better than the previous one Claire had tried on.
"Okay, I will change back to my own clothes first," Claire said before blissfully walking back to the changing room. She knew the clothes in the store were all very expensive, and it was such a rare opportunity for her to make Kevin pay for it. He rarely came home to stay with them.
"Leena, what do you think? Isn't it good on her?" Kevin wrapped his arms around her waist, feeling like it had been a long time since he touched her so intimately.
"As long as she likes it, my opinion doesn't really count." Leena gave him a hard smile. Flustered by Kevin's sudden touch, she had the sudden urge to break free from his arms.
"Miss, we have decided on this one. We will pay by card," Kevin said as he took out his wallet from his back pocket. He handed over his credit card to the sales girl without even checking the price. He did not care about that. As long as his sister liked something, he would buy it to please her.
"Okay, the price for this skirt is 12, 000. If you have a VIP card, you can enjoy a 20% discount." The sales girl notified him about the price of the skirt, smiling pleasantly. As a salesperson, it was routine for her to confirm the price with the customers before they made the payment. The procedure made sure they avoided unnecessary arguments regarding the price.
"What? 12, 000? Are you kidding?" Claire was heading out of the changing room when she heard the saleswoman's words. She was taken aback by the price. Unbelievable! She knew that the clothes sold in this store were expensive, but she didn't expect them to be priced so exorbitantly.
"Miss, I have checked the price. It is 12, 000. If you don't believe me, you can check the price tag yourself. We don't lie to our customers," the saleswoman explained in a hurry. All the dresses in the store were sold at a fixed price tag. Even if she wished to charge customers more than the normal price and pocket the difference for herself, it was impossible.
"It's okay, we trust you. Just take the credit card." Leena smiled gracefully. She could predict how much it was worth, because she had designed the skirt herself. Although the price was different in every city according to consumer levels, it didn't vary by too much. Besides, the materials used to make the skirt were all very expensive, so the price was reasonable compared to other similar brands.
