Adam didn’t look like someone who would buy cheap things, but what Lumma wanted to buy was not expensive. After thinking for a while, Lumma thought Adam’s needs were prior, so she took him to a luxury mall.
Lumma looked at Adam, who was walking in front of her. He kept walking and didn’t intend to go into the store to have a look. If he wandered aimlessly, he might not be able to buy anything.
Lumma sped up and caught up with him. “Mr. Hills, do you want to go into the store?”
Adam nodded and walked into the nearest store, but he was stopped by the staff at the door. “Sir, please line up over there.”
Usually, those luxury brand stores came to serve Adam, who had a high status, and he might not be interested in them. Adam didn’t expect he has to wait in line to buy a bag.
Lumma quickly took out the company’s Elite Plus card. When the staff saw it, his attitude changed abruptly, and they were directly invited into the VIP room.
The staff who was responsible for members with Elite Plus cards was very respectful, as if welcoming the king. She took out all the bags that ordinary customers couldn’t buy after making an appointment for several months. “Mr. and Mrs., take your time.”
Hearing this, Lumma was so embarrassed. “He is my boss.”
Adam also frowned. Although he hadn’t seen his wife for more than two weeks after returning, he didn’t want others to misunderstand. He explained, “She is helping me choose a gift for my wife.”
“Sorry!” The staff served all kinds of people every day. Normally, she shouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.
Seeing they sat together and their appearances and temperaments were very compatible, the staff naturally felt they should be a couple.
Adam didn’t know what kind of bags girls liked, so he decided to buy them all and thought there would always be one his wife liked. “I’ll buy them all.”
The four bags were more than sixty thousand in total.
Then Lumma accompanied Adam to a luxury jewelry store, and the salesperson took them directly to the counter for Valentine’s Day. “Sir, this necklace is our special necklace for Valentine’s Day. I believe your wife will look amazing when wearing it.”
Adam said, “Okay, I’ll take this one.”
The salesperson liked such straightforward customers. She smiled and looked at Lumma. “Mrs., would you like to try it on?”
“He’s my boss,” Lumma explained patiently while cursing in her mind.
Do I look like I’m intimate with Adam?
I’m obviously an assistant at his command. I’m very cautious in front of him for fear of losing this job. How do I look like his wife?
Lumma looked at Adam. He didn’t explain this time, and his expression didn’t change, but she could clearly feel his displeasure.
In the end, Adam chose two necklaces and spent hundreds of thousands again.
When Lumma helped him swipe the card, she felt a little uncomfortable.
She worked day and night to make money, but she still couldn’t afford a house. But for Adam, the money for buying a few bags and jewelry was more than her savings in the past few years.
It was true that comparisons would kill your joy.
After the necklaces were packed, Lumma was naturally the one to carry the bags because Leonard hadn’t found a parking space yet.
After leaving the shopping mall, Adam, who was striding ahead, asked indifferently, “You haven’t bought anything yet?”
Lumma pointed to the front left. “The things I want to buy are not in this mall. I have to walk several hundred meters over there.”
“Show me the way,” Adam said, but he still walked in the front.
The bags and jewelry were not heavy, but the packing boxes were very big. Lumma carried two big bags in each hand like a Christmas tree full of gifts and looked very funny.
As she didn’t walk faster than Adam, she was left far behind in a short while.
