The items inside that box, however, were so perfect that even an amateur like her knew how high the quality was.
The condition and stitching were obviously much better than the handkerchief created by the famous Leslie Winters.
How is that possible? I can't believe someone who's more skilled than Leslie actually exists!
Mary was so surprised that she stumbled a step back. “T-This is virtually perfect. My mother loves embroidery and has always been a fan of Leslie Winters' products. I can't believe there is someone out there who can stitch even better! Will you sell one of those handkerchiefs to me?” requested Mary immediately.
Everyone knew that the countess loved embroidery products.
Mary and Penelope made such a huge mess that they were forced to return to Maredania. If the countess were to discover what the two of them did, she would, without a doubt, be infuriated.
If I can get her one and put her in a good mood...
Mary was already scheming.
Letting out a scoff, Caleb scanned Mary from head to toe. This woman bullied Lynnie... I wonder if how she'll react if she learns that she's spending a fortune to buy Lynnie's work now. Maybe her jaw will drop. Still... it would be an insult to Lynnie if someone like this woman has Lynnie's product.
Those thoughts prompted Caleb to reply calmly, “I'm sorry, but a good friend of mine gave them to me, so I will not sell them. The plane is about to take off. Please return to your seat.”
Mary reluctantly shifted her gaze from the box, then made her way to her seat.
After taking her seat, she turned to Penelope and whispered, “Do you think maybe Mr. Powell has a thing for me?”
“Huh? What do you mean?” asked Penelope while blinking in confusion.
“He seems to care about me because he told me to return to my seat. Maybe he doesn't want me to get hurt after the plane takes off...”
Charlotte, whose seat was right in front of Mary, could not help but twitch her lips a little. Is she a retard? He was obviously chasing her away. How did she even interpret that as something romantic?
Charlotte and Joseph had boarded the same plane because they needed to return to Maredania for the treatment on their faces.
When they boarded the plane, they made their way to Caleb to greet him. They never thought that they would run into Mary, who was so engrossed in her own narcissism and so focused on Caleb that she was not aware of the passengers in front of her.
