Chapter 148

Chapter 148:

Stella casually looked at the clothes in the shop. The clothes and pants there could cost her more than her annual salary!

She was just thinking about buying clothes for Tristan, but now her thoughts were shattered. With the money she had now, she couldn’t even afford a piece of clothing there!

In the past, during Stella’s time in France, her life was not very good. Now that they had returned to the country, it was only a little bit easier.

“Stella, what are you looking at?”

Tristan looked at the woman in front of him with a strange expression. Stella looked around and kept flipping through the men’s clothes.

No one knew what she wanted to do. Stella, who had been called out, felt embarrassed.

The little fellow said mischievously, “Darling, are you trying to get me clothes? I want to wear children’s clothes! I can’t wear this!”

The little fellow couldn’t be more enthusiastic. For the men’s clothes here, almost all of them were suits and shirts, which were very formal. When the little guy saw them, he felt that they were very fresh.

Tristan looked at the little fellow and soon understood the little fellow’s intentions. He suggested with a faint smile, “Adrian, why don’t I take you to have a look? What kind of clothes do you like?”

“Okay...”

“No, no!”

As soon as the little fellow opened his mouth, Stella hurriedly stopped them. Just now, she had looked around the store and knew that the prices of the items there were not cheap. Not to mention that she could not afford it, and now Tristan still wanted to buy clothes for Adrian.

He had already given Adrian so many toys before, but she had not paid him back yet! So many toys added up to more than 100,000 yuan, and he had spent so much money on just toys... She couldn’t bear it. “It’s okay. I’ll take Adrian around to have a look.”

As he said this, Tristan took Adrian to the children’s clothing area of that brand. Stella left alone, wailing on the spot. “Miss, what do you want to buy?”

Not long after Stella strolled around, a salesperson came forward to ask.

More to discover gαℓησνeℓs.cøm Stella picked a suit and asked, “Can this suit be discounted?”

“I’m sorry, Miss. Our shop never does discounts,” the salesperson said gently.

Stella nodded awkwardly.

The salesperson behind her asked again, “Miss, who are you buying clothes for? A boyfriend or a father? It’ll be easier for me to recommend a style to you.”

“Uh...”

Stella was embarrassed. She thought about the relationship between her and Tristan and finally said, “We’re friends...”

The salesperson nodded and asked, “Do you want to buy clothes or something else? What’s your budget?”

“Uh... It’d be best if it’s between four and five digits.” Stella thought for a moment and then stated. After all, she didn’t have much money.

On her side, while she wanted to return the favor to Tristan, she also had to take into account her financial situation.

After hearing this, the salesperson looked embarrassed. She looked at Stella sadly and said, “Miss, all clothes start from six figures. Four figures... Haha, don’t joke.”

“Even the ties in our shop are worth tens of thousands of yuan!” The salesperson pointed to the tie section not far away as she spoke.

Stella’s face was sullen. Thinking of the money in her bank card, she was afraid that she could only afford a tie! “Then take a look at the ties. You don’t have to worry about me.” Stella said embarrassedly.

The salesperson behind her was still very polite. She didn’t act snobbish. Instead, she said kindly, “It doesn’t matter, Miss. Even if you don’t buy it, it doesn’t matter. I’ll still recommend some to you.”

As she spoke, the salesperson led Stella to the tie area. Stella looked at the ties. They were black, dark gray, and navy blue.

She took the gray tie, which had thin white lines on it. It was very light, but it made the style look more unique. When the salesperson saw this, she said with a smile, “Miss, this tie you picked is good. It’s suitable for friends. This one is more suitable for someone more mature, for official occasions.

“This navy blue one doesn’t have any patterns, and it will look a little simple. The gray tie you chose is very suitable for young people.”

Stella took a closer look and found the tie was indeed true, as the salesperson described it.

Overly dark and heavy was suitable for Tristan. The gray color was not purely gray, but it added a kind of hazy and mysterious feeling. That was why Stella chose that one.

“What’s the price of this one?” Stella asked.

The salesperson said, “This one is 6,000 yuan.”

Stella was speechless.

In her mind, she remembered that she had checked her salary card when she was paid a few days ago. There was only 70,000 yuan in it... When she was in France, it took her a few years to save the same amount of money.

However, thinking about it, if she didn’t buy this tie, she would still need to return the money for the toys that Tristan had given to Adrian. At that time, Tristan would not accept the money...

If she gave him a gift, he was more likely to accept it.

Stella thought for a moment and then said, “I’ll get this one.”

“Okay, Miss. I’ll pack it up for you. You can pay at the counter,” the salesperson said gently.

Stella went to the counter.

Although her heart ached, she had no choice but to repay the debt of gratitude. She made up her mind and took out the bank card that had 70,000 yuan in it. There would only be 1,000 yuan left.

“Oh, Stella! Do you want to buy something too?”

Sophia held her purse in her hand and said that she was going to buy something for RK. Next to her, there was a salesperson who was packing up a set of men’s suits. Stella glanced at them and replied vaguely, “Yes.”

“What did you buy?” Sophia’s face was full of curiosity.

Stella didn’t answer. She wanted to walk around her, but the salesperson came with the tie that Stella had bought. “Miss, the tie you bought has been packed up. Here you go.”

It turns out to be a tie... Sophia, who was standing next to her, remarked.

Looking at the tie in Stella’s hand, her expression didn’t look very good. It was as if what Stella had bought was a gift for her fiancé. Stella took the tie and said, “Thank you.” She was about to leave...

However, Sophia stood in front of her and didn’t seem to want to give way at all. “Stella, who do you buy the tie for? Do you want to give it to Dad?”

There was still curiosity on her face, but there was an incomprehensible look as well.

Stella couldn’t reply. She just said lightly, “Excuse me, please get out of my way.”

As for this so-called “sister,” Stella found that there were not many common topics between the two of them. If it wasn’t for the fact that RK was there, Stella believed that with Sophia’s character, it would not be easy for her to let Stella go with just a few questions.

Sophia smiled. “You’re so mysterious.”

Stella didn’t answer.

Sophia only took a step back and made way for her.

At the end of the day, it was because of RK’s presence that she couldn’t be too overbearing.

“Sir, Miss, the total comes to 230,000 yuan,” behind her came the voice of the cashier at the counter...
