“Nothing, I just missed you and wanted to see you. About the car…”

at that it
Lucas’s smile grew wider as he pulled me onto his lap. One hand gently massaged my waist. “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure my wife gets it. But don’t I deserve a reward?”
After two years of marriage, how could I not understand the implication?
For the sake of my supercar, I’ll do whatever it takes!
“I bought a bunny outfit. Come home early tonight, honey,” I purred.
Lucas nodded and kissed me on the lips. “Sure, I’m looking forward to my little bunny.”

How utterly ridiculous!
Two days later, I finally recovered my spirits. After repeated pestering from my best friend, I agreed to go shopping.

But after browsing several stores, I remained unenthusiastic.
“What’s wrong with you? You said you wanted to go out, but you look so gloomy!” my friend complained. “Cheer up, shopping is supposed to be
fun.”
Little did I know an even more unpleasant surprise was waiting. Bella White and I ended up walking into the same store.
Seeing her face, I was about to leave, but my friend had already dragged me inside.
“Mrs. Quinn, it’s been a while,” the sales assistant Immediately came over to greet me.
Bella’s gaze fell on me, her eyes filled with resentment.
I can’t lose face!
With a wave of my hand, I said, “Show me your new bags.
The assistant quickly brought out two bags from the stockroom. “These are our rare dual–tone limited editions that just arrived this morning.”
“I’ll take both!” I declared, glancing at Bella. Her expression grew increasingly dark.
“We have a 1:1.2 purchase ratio today,” the assistant informed me.

“Pack up those belts, cufflinks, and scarves too!” I added.
The assistant’s smile grew even brighter as she arranged for everything to be wrapped up.
My friend grinned at me. “I wonder if Lucas knows all the gifts you buy him are just because of purchase ratios?”
Of course he didn’t know. There was even a period when Hermès didn’t have any bags I liked. One night after we finished making love, Lucas suddenly asked:
“Why haven’t you been giving me gifts lately?”
I mustered up my energy and patted his face. “Don’t worry, I’ll go shopping tomorrow.”
So the next day, Lucas gave me another credit card. I immediately bought two bags and a bunch of accessories to give him. “Do you like
them?”
“I love anything you give me,” he replied.

The sales assistant finished packing everything up and brought it over. “How would you like to pay, Mrs. Quinn?”
“Credit card,” I said, reaching into my purse. After rummaging for a while, my smile froze.
Just my luck! Of all days to forget my wallet!
Thankfully my friend noticed my predicament. “Did you forget your card? Use mine for now.”
“Hmph!” Bella let out a cold snort.
I couldn’t take this humiliation!
*No need, I’ll call my husband,” I glared at Bella and dialed Lucas’s number.
He picked up quickly. I could hear voices in the background, like he was in a meeting.
“Honey, I went shopping but forgot my card. Could you bring it over for me?”
I wasn’t actually sure if he’d agree. Lucas was usually very busy, and might not want to do such a trivial errand.
But I was determined to save face in front of Bella!
I had even prepared a backup plan – if Lucas refused, I’d secretly text him offering to wear the maid costume in my closet. That would definitely get him here.
“Give me the address. I’ll be right there, Lucas agreed immediately.
My smile grew even brighter. “Okay honey, I’ll wait for you!”
