Francineâs curiosity was then piqued. âHey, Corinne. Why donât you get yourself a little something too
since you have full access to my brotherâs credit card?â
âI have everything I need, so thereâs no need to buy anything.â
Frowning, Francine looked Corinne up and down with disgust. âHer clothes are so basic⦠I mean,
sheâs pretty enough to wear such basic clothing, but how will anybody know sheâs rich if she doesnât
wear branded stuff?â
âOf course you need to buy something! In fact, you should throw away all the clothes you have now
and revamp your wardrobe. Corinne, youâre Missus Hart now, so you should dress accordingly. If not,
youâll just be an embarrassment to my brother.â
Corinne raised her head to look at Francine with something she could not quite decipher. This made
Francine realize what she had just said. Thus, she cleared her throat awkwardly and said, âAhem!
Donât get me wrong. This is by no way me accepting you as my sister-in-law⦠I just think you should at
least clean yourself up since that lovesick brother of mine insisted on keeping you by his side. Iâm only
doing this for my brother. Only a polished woman is worthy enough for him.â
Corinne smiled. âThank you for your advice, but your brother doesnât care what I wear, and I donât have
any interest in branded stuff. Iâll make sure I dress accordingly when the situation requires, but when it
comes to day-to-day clothesâ¦you can forget about it.â
Francine rolled her eyes. âHmph! You must think all this money is chump change. What youâre really
after is all my familyâs fortune. Thatâs why youâre working so hard to have my brother wrapped around
your little finger!â
Corinne smiled. âYouâre right, but you canât fault me for being good at it. You wouldâve done the same if
youâre as good as I am at getting a guy to willingly give all of his money to you.â
Francine crossed her arms and rolled her eyes. âOh, please. Iâm not as manipulative as you are.â
The two girls made a beeline to the Hermes shop as soon as they arrived at the mall. Francine happily
weaved around the shelves to choose a bag that she liked while Corinne waited in the waiting area with
a coffee in her hand.
âCorinne.â
Sometime later, someone called out her name. She looked over and saw Jason walking over with a
femininely dressed woman on his side.
Jason smiled at her. âSo it is you, Corinne. I thought I was wrong.â
âYeah. What a coincidence,â said Corinne with a nod. She did not stand up but continued sipping her
coffee.
âWhy donât you go over there and pick out a few bags you like while I stay and talk to my friend here,â
said Jason softly to the woman beside him.
The woman did not seem to want to leave. She threw a guarded glance at Corinne before finally
nodding and turning to check out the bags.
Jason immediately sat beside Corinne as soon as the woman left.
âCorinne, are you here alone? Whereâs Jeremy?â he asked.
âI came here with Francine. I promised her Iâd buy her a bag, so Iâm just waiting for her here while she
picks the bag she wants,â said Corinne indifferently.
Jason narrowed his eyes. âWell, how nice of you to bring your sister-in-law to do some bag shopping.â
Corinne ignored his sarcastic remark and instead asked, âWas that your girlfriend?â
âNope,â answered Jason without hesitation.
Corinne raised her eyebrow. âWhy did you bring her bag shopping if sheâs not your girlfriend? Oh, I get
it now. Youâre so rich that you can afford to buy bags for any random woman you want.â
Jason smiled helplessly. âSheâs really not my girlfriend but a woman my parents are trying to set me up
with. I was just racking my head trying to think of what I should doâ¦but since youâre here now, why
donât you help me out?â
âHow?â
