Chapter 0093
No , she told me , her tone softening .
Honestly , I wanted to hang out with you , because I wanted to talk .
I needed someone to talk to and I need to reassure myself that its all in Whats on your mind ? I asked her .
my head .
She bit her lower lip and stared at her hands .
Not here , she finally said after a brief silence .
Lets just enjoy the evening first .
We can talk when we grab dinner .
I stare at her for a moment longer before relenting .
If she didnt want to talk right now , then we werent going to talk right now .
She wanted to take her mind off things and ease her discomfort .
30 minutes later , we arrived in the busy city .
Leroy parked the car in front of one of the department stores .
He didnt get out with us as I expected him to , but the guards in the car behind us did get out after they parked .
They were wearing casual clothing , but their weapons were clearly hidden beneath their outfits .
They were also trying to not make it obvious that they were following us .
I appreciated the effort , but I doubted that mattered to Irene .
She was still upset that they were there .
Lets go into this store , she said , pointing at one of the high end boutiques .
Ive only ever walked by this store in the past .
Even when my family had money , I never dared walk in here .
I wasnt surprised that this was the first store that Irene wanted to check out though and I wasnt going to argue with her , so I quickly followed her into the boutique .
Pick out anything youd like , she told me from over her shoulder .
Its on me .
You really dont have to buy me anything , I told her , but she was already around the corner and disappeared in a rack of designer clothing .
I sighed and glanced around at all the beautiful outfits and dresses .
These were all too fancy for my taste .
I slowly made my way around the boutique , wondering what it must be like for Irene who could come here whenever she wanted and buy whatever she wanted .
It must be nice to live like that and never worry about money .
Being a Landry , she never had to work a day in her life .
Everything would always be handed to her .
I walked by the jewelry counter and noticed all the gorgeous designs on display .
One in particular caught my eye ; it was a necklace with a ruby pendant and a pure cold chain .
There were clusters of diamonds around the ruby that made it sparkle under the illuminating light .
It was the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen , and I found myself drawn to it .
I reached out to touch the ruby with my fingertips but the black box that held the piece was immediately slammed shut , I managed to pull my fingers away before they were hurt and I looked up at the furious woman that stood before me .
What the hell do you think youre doing ?? She asked through her teeth .
My heart hammered wildly in my chest .
I was just looking- Chapter 0093 You cant even afford to breathe in this store let alone touch this necklace .
Keep your grimy fingers off ! My face paled and my wolf growled in my head .noveldrama
She did not like this woman speaking to us like that .
Im sorry ? You should be , she hissed .
How dare you walk into my boutique and think you have any right to touch anything here .
You shouldnt be here .
Im a customer- She barked out a laugh , cutting off my words .
Oh , please .
You couldnt afford one of our socks let alone jewelry , she murmured , shaking her head .
She glanced down at my outfit and grimaced .
I mean look at you ; youre dressed like a cheap hooker .
Is that what you do for work ? Must be a real struggle to have to suck dick for a living .
You have no idea what you are talking about , I argued .
I cant believe you were about to touch a 5 million dollar necklace .
Youre lucky you didnt dirty it , or Id make you pay for it , she said , shaking her head as she put the necklace back on display .
How about you save yourself from further embarrassment and get the fuck out of this store ! What seems to be the problem ? A gruffly male voice said from nearby .
A tall man , wearing a nice suit and black designer glasses , walked out from behind the counter .
The woman sneered at me and her lip curled in disgust .
She almost ruined the Emily Wonton designer ruby necklace , the woman hissed .
The man looked at me , sizing me up from my toes to my head and his eyes narrowed .
Do you have any idea how expensive that necklace is He asked .
Im the manager of this boutique and I made the rule that anyone who cant afford my product wasnt allowed in here .
If you arent going to make a purchase , then I suggest you leave .
Look at her ; she cant afford anything here , the woman shickered .
Shes pathetic .
Ill have security throw her out immediately , sir .
No need to get security , a familiar voice said from behind me .
Im sure we can talk this out like adults .
