Chapter 147


    He lifted up an apricot coat and handed it to her, "Try i t on."


    Upon hearing this, Summer was stunned. She froze in ce, thinking that she had heard wrongly what


    he had said.


    Yvette''s expression changed slightly, but reverted as she thought about something else.


    ''It is a good thing that Mark''s attention is diverted from Raine. There''s no reason for me to stop him,''


    thought Yvette.


    When the salesgirl reminded Summer, she snapped back into reality and went into the changing room


    to try on the coat.


    The colour of the knee-length apricot coat that she put on matched her skin, giving off an elegant vibe


    in addition to her fair and delicate cheeks.


    "We''ll take this. Please wrap it up." Mark was stunned initially, then nodded satisfyingly after.


    Even Yvetteplimented, "This coat''s not bad."


    Holding the coat in her hand, Summer was still a bit zoned out. She couldn''t believe that the coat was


    for her.


    Without any dy, the three returned to the Valentine mansion.


    Back at the mansion, the ce was spotless. A maid was making roasted tomato soup in the kitchen


    while Baine was watching from the side.


    When the maid saw Yvette, she panicked slightly, thinking she would be med for the act.


    Baine noticed her nervousness and exined, "She was alone in the kitchen making roasted tomato


    soup, and I was also a bit bored, so I asked her to let me watch her make it so I could learn."


    "Is it so that you could make one for your fiance to eat? " Yvetteughed.


    Taking nces at Mark, Baine nodded, "He does like t o drink roasted tomato soup."


    Mark''s eyebrows moved slightly, and his eyes dimmed vaguely. But he still looked as calm as ever, not


    a hint of him being unusual.


    "Then you should properly learn from the maid." Not only was Yvette not angry, but she was all smiling.


    Summer was thest to enter the mansion. By the time she came in, the conversation had ended, and


    Mark had already headed upstairs.


    "Mark helped pick out a coat for Summer. Do you want to see it?" Yvette asked.


    "Sure," smiled Baine. She seemed as though she did not mind at all and just wanted to simply admire


    the coat.


    Yvette took the coat from Summer and handed it over t o Raine, "I didn''t know that Mark had such good


    tastes. This is my first time seeing him choosing clothes for a woman."


    Summer was not interested in the conversation, so she went to help out in the kitchen.


    When Raine took over the apricot coat, she knew immediately that it is made of good material, and the


    design was of thetest spring wear.


    Staring at the coat, she felt her heart throbbing, but she smiled gently, "This looks nice, are there still


    any? I want to get one for myself too."


    Yvette had been observing her reactions, but seeing that there were no results, she decided to stop


    showing off, "They''re probably sold out. Oh right, is your brothering back for the New Year?"


    Raine asked, "Didn''t you call him?"


    "I''ve been calling him for the past two days, but no one picked up."


    "Then I''m afraid he wouldn''t be back. There''s a possibility that he''s not able to leave his post since


    they''re currently in a state of emergency due to the recent earthquake in Grudin North."


    Hearing this, Yvette was upset, "Just because he''s the person in charge of Grudin North doesn''t mean


    that h e could be this busy till the extent of noting back home even once! When I suggested for


    him to work in Bayside Wood, he didn''t even listen to me. This is so upsetting!"


    Baine did not dare to say anything. ''If she knew the truth, she would be so angry,'' she thought.
