Chapter 70: Chapter 70

Chapter 70 Ten Years After Cindy changed her clothes, Bernice dragged her and Finnegan to Kathleen Mall.

Finnegar asked, “Are we going to buy your grandpa a birthday gift?”

Kathleen Mall was a gift from Gilbert to Kathleen for their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. He even invested ten billion in the land. It was one of the largest malls in Jadeborough.

As long as one had money, one could buy every luxurious good under the sun there.

Bernice answered, “I’m helping you buy a present for Grandpa and getting a new set of clothes for you.”

Even though Finnegan had said he would prepare a perfect present, Bernice couldn’t help but worry when she saw that he was empty-handed. His clothes were also too ordinary for a birthday banquet.

A look of contempt crossed Cindy’s face.

Finnegan feigned ignorance and chuckled. “I’ve already prepared your grandpa’s birthday present, so you don’t have to worry. As for my clothes, I think it’s fine as long as they’re comfortable to wear.”

Bernice pouted. “Finnegan!”

Finnegan cleared his throat and reached for her hand. “All right, I’ll listen to you and buy myself new attire, but you really don’t have to buy another present because I’ve already prepared it.”

“Now, that’s more like it. Let’s go!”

Bernice clung to Finnegan’s arm unabashedly, not minding Cindy, who was walking beside her.

She had told her best friend, Cindy, about a lot of things, so she wasn’t scared to be affectionate with Finnegan in front of her.

However, watching the two interact, Cindy had a different thought. It looks like I’ll have to come up with a plan to tip Bernie off about Finnegan being a womanizer.

The minute the trio entered the mall, Bernice instantly dragged Finnegan to the men’s clothing section.

All of them were branded men’s clothing. Any one of them was worth tens of thousands.

Chapter 70 Ten Years Bernice chose a set of black attire for him. Try this on, Finnegan.”

Finnegan took the attire and went to the changing room, lest Bernice feel unhappy.

After watching Finnegan enter the changing room, Bernice turned to Cindy and asked, “Cin, what do you think about Finnegan?”

Cindy’s first instinct was to say Finnegan was a terrible choice, but she knew she couldn’t say it outright, so she expressed her disagreement in a roundabout way. “His looks are good. It’s the type that younger girls will like. As for his character, that isn’t something I can discern just by meeting him once. I’ll need to get to know him for a bit longer. However, I still think what you’re feeling for him isn’t love between men and women. It feels more like gratitude. You have to think twice, Bernie!”

Bernice nodded. “Cin, it may look like gratitude from your perspective, but I’m sure my feelings for him aren’t just purely gratitude. I’m also used to him.”

I’ve visited Desmond and Quiana frequently and talked a lot with Rhiannon for five years, so I’ve heard plenty of stories about Finnegan. As time goes on, I’ve gotten used to Finnegan as someone who lives constantly in my mind and heart. When he returned and rescued me, my feelings for him turned to that of love. After meeting and talking to him a few times, I’m all the more certain about my feelings.

However, Cindy couldn’t understand her mindset. She continued to advise, “Bernie, you’re the prettiest among the Four Beauties of Jadeborough. I can’t even keep count of the number of people pursuing you. One of them-”

“Cin, I understand what you’re trying to say, but if I don’t feel anything for that pointless even if he’s one of the scions of Loang’s Five Great Families.”

person, it’s Knowing Bernice well, Cindy tactfully stopped talking and decided to switch her target to Finnegan by persuading him to leave Bernice.

“He’s so handsome!”

“As expected, clothes make the man. He looks like those male leads in dramas.”

“Those feminine and childlike male celebrities are no match for this handsome man right here. He’s masculine and good-looking. He’s completely crushed them.”

“I’ll be willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years if he’s my boyfriend.”

After a while, the retail assistants suddenly exclaimed and started commenting like fan girls.

Bernice looked over her shoulder to see Finnegan walking out. D*mn, he’s handsome!

Cindy cast an indifferent glance in his direction and was shocked at the sight.

Chapter 20 Ten Years Finnegan’s looks were slightly above average before, the current him had changed completely. He looked like a prince with a regal air with every move he made.

It was as if he was born to be a prince.

How could a set of clothing change the way a person carried themselves so much?

While Cindy was still surprised, Finnegan had walked up to Bernice. “Is this okay. Darling?”

His question snapped Bernice out of her daze. With sparkling eyes, she said, “I didn’t realize you had such a handsome side.” Her cheeks blushed as she recalled what Finnegan had called her. “Meanie, we’re in public. Don’t call me that,” she chided shyly.

Taking in her shy look, Finnegan suppressed the urge to pinch her adorable cheeks. “How do I look?”

Bernice nodded. “Not bad. Just keep this on. Excuse me, we’re taking this!”

Cindy had a conflicted expression after she returned to her senses. Finnegan’s change and his closeness with Bernice made her uncomfortable.

When the retail assistant approached, Cindy muttered, “You’re really something. Finnegan, to ask a woman to buy you clothes as a man.”

“What are you talking about, Cin?”

Bernice frowned, finally sensing Cindy’s hostility toward Finnegan.

Unconcerned if it brought shame to Finnegan. Cindy continued, “Did I say anything wrong? We’re attending your grandpa’s birthday banquet, yet he needs you to buy him clothes. He’s your boyfriend.

Are you planning to treat him like your sugar baby?”

Her remark was an insult to a man.

It was about the same for Finnegan.

He stopped Bernice from standing up for him and narrowed his eyes at Cindy.

Taking out a purple-gold card, he handed it to the retail assistant. “She’s right, Bernie. You shouldn’t be spending money on me today. I’ll pay for my own clothes.”

Bernice’s frown deepened. She glanced at Cindy confusedly and did not stop Finnegan from paying.

She knew Finnegan had money.

Cindy smirked.
