Women Owned by 5 Young Masters
Chapter 176: Don't Look at Appearance
"Oh, yes. What about our engagement? Which hotel do you want to be held at? Are you going to invite your friends?" alan asked as he put food in his mouth.
Irene had felt a mental burden every time she heard Alan talk her into serious issues. I don't think he's ready to get married. I have to marry Alan .
"What if the show is just a family event? I'm going to invite my grandparents to discuss this" Irene said.
Alan was somewhat astonished by Irene's request. He thought Irene was expecting a spectacular engagement like the current trend. As it turned out, the woman only wanted a meeting of two families.
"Well, if that's what you want," Alan agreed.
"This is for you!" Alan thrust out a parcel box with a ribbon decoration in front of Irene.
Irene looked questioningly at Alan.
"That's an antal gift for you. Open it!" her door.
Irene took the parcel. He took off the ribbon that knotted the box and opened it.
From within the city he obtained an extremely beautiful blood jade bracelet. Irene was stunned in disbelief. "Sister, isn't this the jade you got back then?" Irene asked to make sure.
He knew that the stone was rare. Alan said he wanted to make the stone a symbol of his company. He did not expect that Alan also made the jade into a bracelet for him.
"So why'd you give this to me?" ask Irene.
"Because I want to give it to you. Let me help you put it on, yeah!" said Alan.
Irene's heart was pounding as Alan's hand touched her hand, inserting the jade bracelet into her wrist.
"Very suitable for you" said an with a smile.
After eating, Irene returned to her room. He looked at the jade bracelet on his wrist. "Is Alan's brother starting to like me?" muttered.
He felt a great deal of sincerity when Alan gave it to him. It was impossible for Alan to give such a precious item to such an indiscriminate person.
"Is this what he's doing because of Grandpa?" thinking about it made Irene over thinking.
***
Irene went to the mall alone. He went around on the 5th floor which is a center for fashion and other items with famous brands. He decided to go to a store that sold warm clothes.
Alan invited him to go to Switzerland together. The air is cold because of the winter. It was impossible for him to wear clothes that he used to wear every day. He could freeze to death.
When just entering the store, the employees who saw it had given a sharp glare like watching a thief. He just smiled at their behavior.
Irene casually went inside. He approached the area filled with a special winter clothing line with a good model.
"If you want to go to the mountain, there is no need to wear jackets like this. You see, that's here specifically for winter" chirped one of the employees who followed Irene.
Irene sighed. He already thought that someone would think it was wrong to enter the store because of its appearance. He was trying to develop a smile.
"I'm not that stupid to get in here. You take it easy, I can pay for the clothes I'm going to buy" he said in a soft tone. In order not to prolong the affair, he took a card from inside his wallet.
The servant was immediately bowed to see the black card Irene had shown him.
"Can I continue shopping?" ask Irene.
The waiter nodded.
Irene chose a few pieces of clothing that would be suitable for the weather in Switzerland. The waiter helped bring the purchased items. Seems some of the servants who stood there whispering to see one of their colleagues look obediently bring the item taken by the ugly woman.
"Oh, sorry," Irene said as her hand touched the hand of another visitor who was about to pick up the clothes she was interested in as well.
He looked towards the person beside him. They look at each other.
"Irene, huh?" greet the woman.
"Awila?" Irene asked to make sure. He had met the beautiful artist in person, but his appearance this time made him a little pangling.
Irene told the waiter to store her groceries at the cashier first and asked her not to follow her anymore. He wants to talk to Adila, Arvy's lover.
"You how are you? Long time no see" said Irene.
"I'm good. Intentionally disappeared for a while because of the news at that time. You know for yourself," said Adila while choosing clothes that might be interesting for her to buy.
"Jonathan is so outrageous to make news. Thank goodness everything can be resolved well" said Irene.
"I heard you're getting married to Alan's sister, huh?"
Irene was surprised that the news had reached Adila's ears. "You know from whom? Brother Arvy?"
Adila nodded. "I heard you guys are also going on a vacation to Switzerland."
Irene was getting embarrassed. It looks like Arvy told all those things to his girlfriend. "Arvy is also coming with us" he said.
"Yes, she said she was lazy to make her sister as your mosquito repellent."
Irene just widened her smile. "If when do you want to formalize a relationship? Isn't it tiring to have a secret relationship?"
"And having to go through his three oldest brothers was Arvy's turn. After Alan's brother got married there were Alex's brother and Alfa's sister."
"It should fit the queue, huh?" Irene chuckles.
"If the customary traditions of the region are so. Marriage should wait for the oldest child to get a mate. If violated, it can make the stepbrother not sell for a lifetime."
"I just found out there's such a custom?"
"You are a newcomer ...."
After shopping, Irene and Adila head to the cashier to pay for their groceries. Irene took out her savings debit card to pay for clothes that were quite decent. Adila intended to pay for her shopping but was rejected.
The servants whispered to each other to see Irene's proximity to Adila who was famous as an artist. They seem to have misjudged people.
"He also has a black card in his wallet" said one of them.
"I'm sure he's a rich man, hundreds of groceries are also paid off with his debit card."
"Eat him next time never see anyone from the outside. Appearance does not necessarily reflect the contents of the wallet."
"Yes, like us, right? Every day grooming, wear the latest outfit, but the salary just pass by."
"Mahaha ...."
They are amused themselves by the discussion they do. Those who work there alone cannot afford to buy clothes in their own stores. Their salary is lower than the price tag on their store clothing brand.
