Chapter 146


    Catherine’s POV


    “Where are you taking me shopping?” I asked curiously.


    “We go where the best things are,” ke said calmly.


    I couldn’t help but look back at him. “You aren’t going to spend a fortune changing my appearance just


    because of what people say on the Inte, are you? If so, then I guess I owe them a thank you.”


    “Isn’t it a matter of course for me to buy things for you? Do I need a reason?” ke couldn’t help but


    chuckle.


    “Fine. Aren’t you afraid that I will buy lots and lots of stuff and max out your card?” I threatened him


    fiercely.


    “Go ahead. As long as that’s what you want.” ke said generously.


    I suddenly realized that I had said something ridiculous again. ke had so much money that even he


    lost count.


    “Forget it. I’m not that greedy. A few pieces will do.” I thought about it, and I realized that I shouldn’t take


    it out on him. After all, how I dressed was the reason why we were here.


    ke didn’t say anything. He just smiled.


    We were parked in Sayreville’s central za, a shopping mall that housed luxury brands from around the


    world.


    The car was parked in a private spot, and after ke got out of the car, he reached his hand over.


    I was stunned for a second, and then I saw six guards from the pack behind him.


    I had no choice but to put my hand in his palm symbolically.


    However, the moment my hand touched his palm, he grasped my hand tightly.


    The feeling was like an electric current running through my heart. I could not help but shiver.


    “I’ve already nned the route out for you. Juste with me!” ke turned around, and his thin lips


    could not help but curl up:


    His every move was filled with a noble aura. His every word was elegant. When he looked at people,


    there was a deep light in his eyes.


    I was still wandering, and I was already standing in the elevator next to him.


    I tried to look straight ahead, but ke’s aura was so irresistible. I couldn’t help but look sideways and


    just happened to see his hand holding my arm.


    Also, maybe it was because we were so close to each other. I could even smell the strong Lycan scent


    on ke.


    The elevator doors opened. ke held my hand overbearingly and took me out of the elevator.


    I thought the ce would have been crowded, but when I stepped off the elevator, I realized that there


    were not many customers in this expensive shopping area. There were just a few.


    Well, that made sense. Not a lot could afford to purchase in such a ce.


    “Pick a gift for Leoter. His birthday ising.” ke suddenly opened his mouth, as if it had urred


    to him.


    “You do it. I always make bad choices when ites to gifts.” I was reluctant.


    “Pick one on behalf of the kids,” said ke.


    My kids were my soft spot. I only thought for two seconds and nodded. “Fine. Let’s take a lookter. If we


    can find anything good, we’ll buy it.”


    We walked into a women’s clothing store. I recalled the experience of being despisedst time. But this


    time, ke apanied me. Seeing that, I somehow felt a sense of security.


    No one wanted to be looked down upon by others. The faint vanity made me feel good.


    I guessed I was also a ve to money.


    “Sir, would you like to pick something for your girlfriend? We have some new arrivals! Your girlfriend can


    try them on!” A guide came forward to greet us warmly.


    Due to ke’s identity, he was rarely seen in public, and not many ordinary people knew him. However,


    he had a strong aura, and others didn’t dare to be presumptuous in front of him.


    On the contrary, because of my frequent presence online, my face was recognized easily.


    Soon, I heard the staff of the women’s clothing store whispering.


    “Is he the legendary president of the Chavez Group? Look! Isn’t the woman beside him the same


    Catherine who was rumored this morning?”


    I turned a deaf ear and kept browsing.


    With his hands behind his back, ke walked lightly beside me, apanying me as I


    selected.


    I walked around the store, but I didn’t pick out any clothes, let alone try them on. I just walked to the door.


    ke grabbed my wrist. “What’s wrong? You don’t like the clothes here?”


    I nodded. I was, in fact, a bit flustered. It wasn’t a good time to buy anything, because any decision I


    made when my mind was messed up, I would regret it.


    And the chief culprit was the man grabbing my wrist right now. I didn’t know why, but I just got nervous


    when he was around.

    ke had to follow me out the door and walk to another store.


    “Cathy, you are weird. What’s the matter?” ke asked with a frown.


    “Nothing. I just want to browse more and try on what I like.” I answered vaguely.


    “But I think there was a lot that would suit you very well,” ke said.


    “Really? I guess I should have stayed more focused,” I answered, a little surprised.


    “You know what? I’ll be the one who picks out your clothester, and you just have to try them on. We’ll


    buy whatever fits you. buy it if it fits. Otherwise, tomorrow’s headline will be ‘Why does the president of


    the Chavez Group spend an afternoon shopping with his girlfriend, yet refuse to buy her a single dress?””


    ke joked.


    I froze. To my surprise, he could be so humorous.


    So, for the next hour, I tried on dozens of clothes of all styles, and in the end, ke simply skipped the


    step where I tried on the clothes. He just bought everything that he had his eyes on.


    “ke, enough! There’s no need to buy this much!” I stood aside. When I heard the price stated by the


    shopping guide, I was shocked.


    These clothes could hold on for years for me.


    ke saw how astonished I was. Then he smiled and said, “OK. We are done here.”


    Only then did I let out a long sigh of relief. Women were said to be the crazy ones when shopping. Today


    was an eye-opener. When men go crazy, they could be terrifying.


    “You bought too many clothes! I can’t wear them all!” I was still muttering.


    ke looked down at me. He smiled and said, “Throw those outdated ones away. We’lle here again


    when new arrivals are in store next year.”


    When I heard him say the word “we”, my heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of my


    throat.


    The elevator stopped. I trembled and looked up at him. “Which floor are we on? Aren’t we going to the


    parking lot?”


    ke grabbed my hand. He said, “Something is missing.”


    “What?” I was surprised.


    “Now that we’ve bought clothes, of course, we need jewelry to match them. Let’s go to the jewelry


    section.” ke was already dragging me in that direction.
