“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 atten

After that, the sales assistant directly shifted her gaze back to her phone.This ring cost one million.Who in this small city could afford it?Moreover, Georgie Clementine was dressed casually that day. She didn't look like she could possibly afford the ring.Georgie instantly felt appalled by the staff’s attitude, knowing exactly what she was thinking.She couldn’t be bothered to argue with someone like this, so she turned around and walked up to another jewelry store, browsing casually.The sales assistant at this store smiled at her. “Are you looking for a ring?”“I’m only casually browsing,” Georgie said while she perused over the display area.The pieces that came into sight were relatively cheaper, but the designs also seemed ordinary to Georgie.Nothing stood out to her.When the sales assistant from the previous store heard what she said, she immediately rolled her eyes at Georgie.She then looked at the sales assistant in front of Georgie and mouthed the words ‘a

‘It would be great if she spent ten or twenty thousand here,’ the sales assistant thought to herself at first.In the end, Georgie Clementine ended up spending a lot more than expected.The sales assistant on the other side was dumbfounded when she heard Georgie confirm the purchase.She promptly placed her phone down and stared at the client from behind with a shocked expression on her face.The woman didn’t even hesitate when she heard the hefty price tag of the necklace.What did this mean?It meant she was a wealthy person!She had just missed a huge opportunity for a massive sale by refusing to do her job of attending to any potential customer. In this case, if she had shown the ring to Georgie when she asked, she could have been the one who made the sale.Right then, she truly felt remorseful.The sales assistant in front of Georgie was overjoyed. “Really? Are you sure?”“Yes, please get it wrapped up for me,” Georgie confirmed.The staff nodded and proceeded to wrap t

When she heard this, she immediately looked at the long-haired sales assistant. “Why does that name sound so familiar?”“You’re so clueless. She’s the CEO of X Entertainment, the company that your idol, Josh Batton, is attached to,” the other woman said.She became even more exasperated after hearing this. “What? I can’t believe it!“I’ve seen Georgie’s pictures before, but I couldn’t recognize her face,” she added, feeling even more remorseful now.“That’s what you get for not spending more time on Weibo. Look at me, I frequently check out stuff on Weibo, and I can remember some of those people.”The sales assistant felt even worse.Not long after Georgie Clementine had left with her new necklace, Henry Armstrong came up from behind and hugged her.He followed her along while casually checking out the various brands that he wouldn’t buy. “Why didn’t you wait for me where we were? I didn’t see you when I came out, and I looked for you everywhere.”As he spoke, he noticed the ba

Georgie Clementine wanted to have more than one child as they would be lonely without a sibling.She was fond of children for a start, so she didn't want to limit herself to having only one.When Henry Armstrong heard this, a stern look came on his face. “No way! We’re only going to have one, and I won’t agree to another one. I’ve already told you why.”Her frown deepened. “Who was it that said he'd respect my decisions for the rest of his life? I happen to like children, and I feel very strongly about having two kids."He fell silent.Although he wanted to refute, he could tell that Georgie was upset. He immediately raised his hands to surrender. “Fine, fines as you wish. Please don’t be mad.”“That’s more like it," she replied. "However, I am not talking about the second child right after this one. We’d have to wait until our firstborn is at least six or seven. I don't want my career to be affected by having two kids consecutively.”“All right. Anything you want, my love.”He

Georgie Clementine and Henry Armstrong simultaneously took their phones to have a look.The same content of a news article from Weibo appeared on their phones.“Georgie Clementine’s expensive betrothal gift.”Glancing at her fiance with a puzzled look, she clicked on the article to find a source, claiming to be her neighbor, had revealed a private matter on Weibo a while ago.This neighbor mentioned that Georgie’s parents received 30,000,000 in cash as her betrothal gift and that her mother was the one who shared the news.The article even posted a photo of the source, revealing the face of a woman whom Georgie recognized as a daughter of the family that lived opposite their unit.It wasn’t surprising at all that her mother had shared the news. Small town folks around her mother's age generally liked showing off anything related to their children.It was practically a hobby of theirs to boast about their children's accomplishments.The news article already garnered over six-fig

Georgie Clementine shrugged helplessly.“Fine, we’ll eat at home,” Henry Armstrong nodded, fully understanding how Georgie’s parents felt.Parents around the world would do anything for their children.At this moment, he had a deeper sense of respect for Georgie’s parents.That evening, everyone had a sumptuous meal of hot pot at home amidst a joyful banter.Henry knew how to make his future in-laws happy, repeatedly joking while never stopping putting food onto their plates throughout the meal.Although Henry came from a wealthy family, he didn’t behave like a snobbish person at all and managed to keep Georgie’s parents happy all on his own.The two of them grew even more fond of him now as they talked and laughed all night long.Georgie felt extremely satisfied as she observed this, thinking that she had indeed found the right person.Halfway through the meal, the doorbell started ringing.Ding-dong. Ding-dong.Hearing it, Henry immediately stood up to walk to the door. “I
