Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 698

Whitney visited various counters and browsed through all the options.

While the cheaper watches ranged from a few thousand to ten thousand, the expensive ones cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.

Seeing that, Whitney quietly tapped on her phone and searched for relevant information about Charles on the internet.

As a wealthy and handsome entrepreneur, there were news articles about him on the internet naturally.

After finding the official website of Newton Group, she searched for the formal attire picture of the CEO and paid close attention to the watch on Charles’ wrist.

It seemed to be a diamond-studded watch. Although she couldn’t see the details of the dial clearly, it should be made of precious materials and have a high value as well.

It was probably worth millions.

If I buy a watch worth merely a few thousand, will it seem too casual and cheap for him?

However, the thought of buying a watch worth millions was unbearable to her.

Soon, she gave up on buying a watch.

Next, she browsed through the wallets and colognes…

After browsing for nearly half an hour, Whitney finally settled on a men’s cologne of a high-end brand called JG, which was priced at fifty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

She counted carefully in her mind. Sixty thousand.

Unlike the ridiculously expensive watches, Charles didn’t seem to be wearing cologne when they met at noon today.

Buying a cologne as a gift for him would be just right.

Whitney stared at the cologne for a long time, and after receiving several disdainful glances from the salesperson, she tried the cologne’s top, middle, and base notes, respectively.

Overall, the cologne had a light and elegant fragrance, which exuded a sense of nobility.

As she savored the fragrance, the salesperson gently advised her, “Miss, if you’re not going to buy it, please stop testing it. This is the most popular cologne of the season, and we only have one bottle left in stock. Once it’s sold, it may take several months before we restock.”

Whitney became even more determined to buy this cologne. “Then please keep the last bottle for me. I will definitely come to buy it tonight, and if not tonight, I’ll come latest at tomorrow morning. I will come and buy it!”

The salesperson nodded in response to her sincere words. “All right, I’ll keep it for you until tomorrow morning. I hope you keep your word.”

“I will. Thank you very much!”

After leaving JG, Whitney took out her phone and checked her meager bank savings.

She had roughly twenty thousand, but after paying the next quarter’s rent, she would have to start from scratch again…

However, even though she could postpone paying her rent for now, she still needed a lot more money to buy that bottle of cologne.

Then, Whitney remembered the card Jessamyn gave her at noon.

After taking out the card from her pocket, she dialed the contact number of the manager written on it.

“Hello, I would like to work as a temporary staff at your bar tonight.”

After the manager asked how she got his number, Whitney replied, “No, I was referred by Ms. Jessamyn. She asked me to make this call.”

“Yes, I believe it’s that Ms. Jessamyn. Do I need to arrive at your place before nine o’clock?”

Whitney glanced at the time displayed on her phone. It was already half past eight, which meant that she had just half an hour left.

“Okay, I’ll be right over.”

After hanging up the phone, she headed to Seduction Bar according to the address on the card.

Inside the bar, the DJ was blasting music so loud that it made Whitney’s heart thump along with the beats.

The atmosphere was voluptuous.

Whitney didn’t particularly enjoy that kind of environment, but she followed the manager closely and headed inside.
