“Where’s the mall? Let’s look for a mall so we’d stay warm inside. Also, we can buy something for your parents. What do you think?” Henry Armstrong asked.
Georgie Clementine pointed at the intersection ahead. “Turn left and head straight after this. You’ll see the mall then.”
Henry chuckled. “Yes, ma’am.”
Following her directions, they soon arrived at the largest mall in Sunlight City, the Weston Mall.
It was a common-looking building standing at only three-storey high, paling in comparison to the malls in Atlantis that had over ten storeys.
Henry looked at the state of it, unimpressed. “It is small.”
He was unfamiliar with the brands displayed on the billboards outside the mall.
There weren’t any international brands he was used to seeing.
“Of course, this is not Atlantis,” Georgie replied.
“Well, since we’re already here, let’s go in and have a look," he suggested, parking his car in front of the mall’s entrance.
His elegant, luxurious car instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Henry was the first to get out of the car, his air of nobility and immaculate attire instantly winning over the girls who were paying attention to his luxurious car.
“Ahh, that man is so handsome!”
“The car registration number starts with 'A'. Is he a wealthy man from Atlantis?”
“Isn’t that a Ferrari? That is so cool! It is the first time I’ve seen a Ferrari in a small city like this.”
The girls were muttering among themselves, unable to stop looking at Henry who didn't even spare them a single glance.
He strode directly over to Georgie’s side and opened the car door, gently extending his hand to her.
“Let’s go.”
