"The clothes are here. The bags are on the floor," Avery explained to her daughter, "The staff has not started arranging them. I didn't think you would wake up that early! Shoes and cosmetics are coming later."
"Mommy, it's too much…" Ivy was a little stunned. She has never seen anything so grand like this before.
"Take your time to choose. We'll keep the ones you like. Those that you don't like, we'll get them to take it away," Avery said, "It's too hot right now. If not, I would like to go out shopping with you and chat while shopping."
Ivy nodded. "Mommy, I'll choose two sets of clothes. I don't need a bag. I have my bag…"
"Just choose! There are more casual bags too, just like your bag. You have a huge closet in your room. You can put a lot of things in there," Avery said softly, "Ivy, we owe you too much. Although we want to spend time with you to compensate, you're already an adult. When you go to school in the future, we can't spend time with you either, so we'll compensate you materialistically, don't say no, okay?"
Ivy understood that her parents wanted to compensate, but buying so many things all at once, she felt it rather wasteful and extravagant.
"Are you worried about money? I know that in your past life, earning money was not easy, but the thing we don't lack the most in our family is money. Your father has been on the list of wealthiest people for a very long time. Before I retired, I was on the list too. We can provide you with new clothes to wear and new bags every day. This would not be a problem," Avery said, "If Hayden returns and sees that we did not even buy decent clothes for you, he will surely take you to go and buy them. Do you want to go shopping with him instead?"
Ivy was speechless. Although Hayden was great, she did not want to go shopping with him. Mainly because Hayden did not like to talk. She felt very awkward being with him.
"Okay, I'll choose some!" Ivy walked over to the rack. The staff immediately opened the bag to let her have a look.
"Miss Foster, these are our store's newest summer wear, but summer is almost over. If you want to buy autumn wear, I can get my staff to send the autumn wear over for you to choose," The staff said enthusiastically.
Ivy was stunned. "It's still summer!"
"Usually, we sell summer wear in spring and autumn wear in summer. Usually, by this time, we would have a sale on summer wear."
Hearing that, Ivy's eyes brightened. "Are these clothes on sale?"
