With his hand raised, Lucas chimed in, “Me too!”
Winnie rolled her eyes at him and retorted, “Why do you want in on everything?”
“It’s fun following you around! I never had a chance to splurge like you just now. Why aren’t there any crazy women causing trouble for me?”
Rolling her eyes again, Winnie said, “You have a problem.”
“What are you guys talking about? I don’t understand,” asked Lisanne with furrowed brows.
Lucas explained, “We met a crazy woman just now. Let me fill you in.”
Meanwhile, Shania came out from the fitting room after Winnie and the others left.
The dress she threw to the ground was picked up by the salesperson.
With her order, her assistant immediately went up to the salesperson.
Her assistant carefully asked, “The lady just now did not buy this dress, right? We’ll buy it.”
The salesperson was shocked by Shania’s audacity to buy the dress after complaining about the store and the clothes. The latter even dumped the dress to the ground like it was garbage, and now she ordered her assistant to buy the dress.
The dress was already creased after being thrown to the ground, so the salesperson unwillingly decided to sell it.
Displeased, the salesperson replied, “Okay. Follow me to the cashier.”
Once again, Shania was acting all high and mighty. She exclaimed, “Wait a minute! Before you swipe the card, tell me, who’s the woman earlier?”
…
On the other hand, Winnie was at a hair salon, styling her hair before Nate’s birthday banquet.
After leaving Fairchild Corporation, Xavier went to pick her up at the hair salon.
Winnie wore a black tube dress with a small slit down the middle and a slit down the side. It was not overly revealing but was still able to showcase her long legs and voluptuous figure.
Her porcelain white skin could instantly capture everyone’s attention as it was perfectly highlighted with the stark contrast from the black dress.
Hence, Xavier frowned the moment he saw her.
Winnie waved at him after seeing his irked gaze.
Xavier strode over and said, “Are you trying to be the focus of the banquet? I haven’t seen you dressed up like this for me.”
With raised brows, Winnie replied, “You scared me for a second there. I thought I look horrible judging from the way you look at me earlier. So you think it is nice too.”
Xavier picked up a blanket on the couch and draped it over Winnie’s body. He said, “Stop saying nonsense. Why did you pick this dress? It’s too revealing.”
After being rendered speechless for a moment, Winnie said, “Which conservative era are you from? You call this revealing?”
While saying that, she took off the blanket and continued, “Let’s go. It’s time to go now. My purpose is to attract everyone’s attention tonight. Don’t mess it up for me. You just have to be a shadow.”
