Though utterly dumbfounded, the cashier was a professional and he immediately bowed.
“Sir! You’ve spent so much on our shop today that it would be rude if we didn’t give you any free gifts! Please select any three articles of clothing and they’ll be on us!” said the cashier respectfully.
“No, wait! He’s not buying any of that! Gerald, all of this is way too expensive! I don’t need that many fancy clothes!” replied Queta frantically as she shook her head.
“I don’t think I’d ever have a reason to wear half of what you’ve selected anyway! Please just put them back…”
Her voice was still quivering slightly from the shock of the final bill.
“You don’t need to wear all of them, you know. Now come on, go choose another three articles of clothing. If you want, you could even give them to the teachers or colleagues that you’re close to in the kindergarten. I’m sure that that’ll definitely help boost your relationship with them!” said Gerald with a faint smile on his face.
Gerald knew that many people bullied Queta for her honesty. Which was why Gerald thought that it was worth spending some money on her.
Gerald had to use his black gold card anyway. He needed to spend at least forty-five thousand dollars monthly, so Queta was making his life much easier this month.
Gerald was also aware that he could be willingly spending so much for her because of the feelings that he had for Queta, deep down in his heart.
While this was happening, Kaitlyn and the other two female colleagues were standing not too far behind them.
All three of them were surprised, and this was especially so for the two female colleagues who had heard Gerald’s last statement.
“Wow! Queta, your boyfriend’s so rich! His name is Gerald, right? What a nice name, and he’s so handsome too!” said the two girls who had begun walking toward them and praising Gerald.
Who the more powerful one now was, was clear as day.
“…Huh? Gerald- He’s not…” said Queta, still in a state of shock as she tried to tell them that he wasn’t her boyfriend.
Gerald however, hurriedly replied, “I’m just her god brother! And please, handsome? Have you even looked at how casual the clothes I’m wearing are?”
“Haha! You’re hilarious Gerald!”
The two girls couldn’t help but to feel slightly embarrassed.
God brother? D*mn it! And here they were thinking Queta had a boyfriend!
