Chapter 192 What?
Earlier, the extraordinary care and now billâs payment, my suspicious self was instantly alarmed by that strangerâs favors. I was heavily indebted to him in such a short time. So, I refused his offer cordially.
âYou have done so much for me, Sir. I canât thank you enough for your favors today.
Please let me pay for the clothesâ
My foolishness had already painted me as a dumb woman who couldnât stand under the shade to avoid rain. I didnât intend to leave a bad impression on him by taking his money.
But he didnât like my proposal, rejecting it at once.
âThat wasnât a favor at all. I just shared my umbrella with you, Miss.
Isnât it the first rule of courtesy to help others in need?â
He lowered his head a bit, placing his hand on his chest.
âItâs my honor to be able to come here with you. See, I also enjoyed a cup of coffee in the rain. Isnât it wonderful?â
That sweetâtalker gave me plenty of reasons to alleviate my guilt, but I wasnât the one to buy his selfâmade gratitude story. He had helped me and called it his good luck; my independent self wasnât up to digest this new ideology in an hour.
So, I insisted on paying more firmly. âThat is so kind of you to think like this, Sir. But this isnât fair to burden you with my bills.
I can fend for myself. Please donât worry!â
Perhaps, he took me as a desolate employee who was recently dismissed from her job due to standing in rain absentmindedly.
So, I clarified to him about my financial status by flexing my American Express platinum card.
But it was in vain!
The mystery man didnât even budge, arguing stubbornly.
âYou have a lot of money. I get it, Miss. But I canât break the rules just because of your wealthâ
I was about to stop him when he handed his card to the cashier and spoke with a smile.
âThereâs a reason that men are called gentlemen, Miss. It isnât gentlemanly for women to pay despite being with a manâ
Umm, okay. I guess?
That mystery man was speaking the language of some other planet, introducing me to some new trends. Sharing our expenses 50/50 was the current norm in our society.
Shaking my head, I keenly observed his face with a clear head, gazing at his perfect silky blonde hair. The broad forehead, attractive green eyes, and then bridge of his nose, all felt so familiar. Like, I had seen them somewhere else before.
Now, looking at him closely, it crossed my mind that I knew that face, it was related to my life in more than one way. But the main question was: How?
No matter how much I raced my brain to find a clue about that strangerâs mystique, it was fruitless. There was a dense fog, strictly safeguarding his identity.
As we paid the bill and walked out to cross the empty mallâs building for the exit door, the warmth of his gaze reminded me of my loving fiancé at home. Amidst my recent issues, Brightâs misery flashed across my mind, torturing me with its random visit. I was thinking about him silently when that man said, âItâs a pleasure to meet you, Miss?â
His questioning tone hinted that it was the time for introduction before. Taking a deep breath, I raised my head to speak. But before I could reply to 85.3%
Chapter 192 him, an energetic yet sweet feminine voice exclaimed, interrupting us.
âHey, Aaron. I am here!â
As there was no one in the mall except us, I took that call for thr mystery man commenting inwardly, âAaron? Nice name!â
I turned to see that girl, feeling curious, she sounded excited to spot Aaron in the mall. As she could be a girlfriend or wife of that upright man, I maintained an appropriate distance between us, mentally preparing myself for an explanation to satisfy her.
However, as soon as the girl appeared before my sight and removed her cape ny jaw slacked, my brain couldnât formulate any other thoughts than being shocked.
I was hawking at her when she came forward and tugged Aaronâs arm, chirping like a delicate bird.
âWhere were you, Aaron? I was looking for you...â
The author has something to say: Can you guess who this girl is?
