Chapter 414
Jean Zims and the others had already bought this exact handbag, and Winter had been yearning for it for a while, but she just did not have the money for it.
Frank chuckled. “It’s no problem. While you’re at it, do ch*ck out if there are clothes or anything else you need. We can buy everything at once.”
Winter quickly threw up her hands. “No, it’s fine. The stuff here is expensive–just a handbag is enough.”
She was reluctant to ask Frank to spend too much on her. After all, she knew how difficult it was to make money since she had been helping out at her mother’s snackbar ever since she was a child.
Frank, however, did not seem to mind. “It’s fine–it’s a happy day for me. We’re getting whatever you want.”
He was really pleased that Winter was not a golddigger despite being raised in poverty, though one would have Carol Zims to thank for that.
“Oh, I’m really fine! I have clothes and everything I need now–why buy more?” Winter still refused.
Seeing that she was insistent, Frank nodded and headed over to the cashier, paying without hesitation.
Still, just as they were about to leave, a familiar voice asked, “Winter? What brings you here?”
Frank and Winter turned to find that it was Aria Lond. She was wearing white camisole that bared her fair shoulders, matched with a miniskirt and white thigh–highs hugging her legs, presenting her as endlessly youthful.
Winter smiled and greeted her in turn. “Oh, nothing much–just came to shop with Frank.”
Aria grinned. “You mean, a date?”
Winter blushed but quickly corrected her. “Hey, stop it.”
Aria narrowed her eyes and clicked her tongue. “Out with it—you haven’t been staying at the dorm. Have you moved in with him?”
“What, I…” Winter was stumped, not expecting Aria to guess that.
Still, she was not about to admit it–Aria was such a loudmouth that everyone would know tomorrow!
“No way,” she huffed. “That’s not going to happen.”
Aria nodded in turn, “I guess he’s really not your type. And since it’s not a date, why don’t I join in? We can go shopping together.”
“What?” Winter glanced at Frank. “I’m fine with that, but…”
Aria quickly caught her cue, and walked up to Frank to wrap her hands around his arm intimately. “Please, Mr. Lawrence. I’m bored shopping alone–why don’t we shop together?”
“Sure,” Frank did not hesitate–in his mind, Aria was a pretty girl and a student, albeit a little
of a gold digging.
He was just chaperoning Winter anyway, and having Aria with them would make things less awkward.
“Great! Winter, I just saw that they’re having a major sale at the lingerie store, though you need to buy at least four items,” Aria exclaimed in excitement as she grasped Winter’s arm. It’s the perfect coincidence–we can pick more items since we’re going together!”
“Alright!” Winter’s eyes lit up as soon as she heard the word sale, since she could never resist one after years of being frugal
With that, Aria pulled Winter ahead as Frank followed them to the lingerie store.
When they arrived and Frank found himself staring at the large selection of lingerie, he realized it was really awkward for a man to be there.
On the other hand, as Aria and Winter entered, a retail assistant quickly greeted them eagerly. “Hello, ladies. Are you looking for anything in particular?”
Aria pulled Winter along and pointed at a certain piece of lingerie. “How about that one, Winter?”
Winter turned where she pointed and blushed right then.
