Chapter 912
Celeste wanted it deep down, but she acted reserved, “Didn’t you just send me some clothes a while ago? I haven’t even worn them much, shouldn’t we buy new ones?”
Liam glanced at her, “I was talking about me.”
Celeste was speechless.
Liam finished and walked into the fashion store with a slight smile.
Biting her lip, Celeste followed him.
Liam’s performance during the trial period was not up to par. Points deducted!
As soon as she entered the store, Celeste immediately put the deduction behind her.
The store had a dazzling array of new clothes. Celeste liked this one, then that one, but every time she saw the price, she put it back.
Liam rarely went shopping with her. One reason was that he was busy, and the other was that Celeste was too indecisive when shopping.
She’s the kind of person who’s decisive when it comes to buying big things, but indecisive when it comes to buying small things.
When buying daily clothes, she had to compare and choose the most cost–effective ones. Liam, on the other hand, was the type who didn’t waste time on small expenditures After all, he could be making more money in the time it took to make these decisions.“.
He used to not understand Celeste’s behavior, but now he’s starting to get it.
The life of two ordinary people was not a royal life, the mundane daily life was the norm. The expensive items she bought were only worn on important occasions. After all, in their social circle, a wife’s appearance was very important to her husband’s reputation. If she dressed up beautifully and delicately, it also helped him gain a good reputation.
In daily life, she preferred to be frugal.
For instance, the flower shelf on her home’s second–floor patio. After she ordered it online, she found that the assembly fee could buy another flower shelf. So, she bought tools and asked him to help assemble it.
Liam was handy, but he usually assembled machinery, so assembling a flower shelf was a first for him.
He thought assembling such a thing was a waste of time, so Celeste used sweet talk to coax him.
She would say, “Honey, do you remember Mrs. Simon? She loves cats. Her husband built a cat mansion for her in the backyard, it’s very delicate.” As she spoke, she showed him pictures, “This cat mansion is way more complicated than our flower shelf. Her husband is so capable.”
“Also Mrs. Smith, she’s pregnant. The doctor says she needs more sunlight because she’s a bit lacking in calcium. Her husband, fearing she’d get bored while sunbathing, installed a swing in their yard. It’s handcrafted with pure wood, sturdy, and beautiful! Her husband is not tall, but he managed to nail such a big piece of wood. He’s so capable.”
“And Mrs. Leonardo ”
She gave examples one by one, adding ‘so capable” after each one.
Men hate being compared, especially when their woman compared them to other men. Celeste had completely captured Liam’s competitive spirit. Not only did he assemble the flower shelf for her, he even designed and installed an automatic lifting awning.
