At that moment, Fane and the others had just finished their lunch at the hotel. They were about to go back after a scrumptious meal.
"It wasn't that expensive now, was it? We only spent over seven hundred thousand bucks. I thought the bill would go over a million!”
Fiona was rich now. When she spoke, there was an undeniable tinge of arrogance laced in her words.
"Ma, you really... Did you forget our struggling days in poverty?"
Selena gave a bitter smile. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Ah, why would I compare myself to the olden days? Now I have a son-in-law who can bring in the dough, and my daughter makes plenty of money as well. Of course, I should indulge myself. Money is meant to b e spent!"
Fiona grinned and looked at Joan beside her. "Let’s go, Joan dear. I saw some nice clothes in a boutique yesterday. I think it'd suit you. Why don’t we go shopping?"
"Is it expensive?"
Joan frowned. She remembered how Fane had brought her to buy plenty of clothing and all sorts of unnecessary things the last time. Even now, she was still not used to it.
Besides, Fane gave her quite a lot of money. Now that it was in her grasp, she could not bear to spend it every time she flashed back to her days as a cleaner.
'It's not that expensive. Just a little more than ten thousand bucks. More importantly, it will look good on you. I'm a little short, so I probably won’t look good in it. Why would I recommend the clothes to you otherwise?"
Fiona chuckled as she spoke Fane had given her ninety million bucks yesterday. She was in good spirits now, and she was even feeling amicable toward her son-in-law.
"Alright then!"
Joan smiled and agreed to the proposal to g o shopping.
Of course, two of the beautiful bodyguards tailed after them to ensure their safety.
