You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 506

"Are you buying something for a newborn baby? Do you need me to provide some guidance?"

A shop assistant came over, asking Zoel and Lucille.

"Yes, please, but the baby is not born yet and we don't know the gender. We have no idea what to buy." Zoel pointed at Lucille's stomach.

"It doesn't matter. You can buy some things like milk bottles and diapers first. These are necessities. For swaddles, you can buy one in a neutral color and get the others after the baby is born."

Of course, the shop assistant wouldn't let them leave because they didn't know the baby's gender. Instead, she tried her best to promote their products.

She introduced everything from the baby stroller and bed, to the baby pillows and milk bottles.

Zoel waved his hand generously. "Buy all of them!"

Lucille was observing him from the side, feeling that he had been bewitched. As long as the shop assistant recommended something, he would agree to purchase it. Lucille stopped him immediately, "No! We don't need that much. We are just getting a few things first."

"You have to buy them anyway, so let's buy them all at once."

"No, I'm living in Abby's house now. It's inconvenient to bring so many things back in one go." Lucille glanced around and added, "And there are so many stores here. We can have a look at other stores too."

Others would compare the price before purchasing. No one would act like Zoel, purchasing all the items at the entrance of the first store he visited.

"That's true..." He nodded and told the shop assistant gently, "We'll shop around first."

The shop assistant thought that she was going to make a big sale, but she didn't expect Zoel to leave after listening to Lucille's words. She was a bit unhappy, but she still flattered him. "Men usually don't like to shop. Miss, you are so lucky to have such a good husband who is willing to shop with you."

"Haha, thank you."

Hearing the shop assistant's words, Zoel looked smug.

"There are many mothers who come here to shop by themselves. Women nowadays tend to do everything on their own. There are not many couples who are as happy as you two." The shop assistant continued to praise them as she knew that Zoel was delighted.

"That's not the case," Lucille felt awkward. "Excuse me. We are going somewhere else."

Only then did she realize that it was a wrong decision to let Zoel accompany her to go shopping.

It was not the shop assistant's fault anyway. Who would ask someone other than the child's father to buy baby products together?

Lucille walked around with Zoel. Sure enough, everyone thought that he was the father of the child. The more she listened, the more awkward she felt, but she was too embarrassed to explain. Finally, she said, "Mr. Parker, that's enough for today. Thank you for accompanying me."

"Okay, I'll send you back."

"No, I can take a taxi back myself."

"It's not a big deal." Zoel pulled her sleeve and spoke as he walked, "You are my only employee, and you are so talented in arts. If anything happens to you, I'll suffer a loss."

That was indeed what he had thought at first.

Zoel knew that Lucille would definitely become an excellent artist in the future.

However, as he came into contact with her, he felt she was too silly when it came to the fact that she was pregnant with Franklin's child.

He couldn't help but think that it would be fortunate to be liked by Lucille.

Ever since Natasha told Lucille about her true identity, Lucille always had a complicated feeling.

It happened to be her mother's birthday, so she took a day off and came to her mother's grave alone to talk.

Lucille stared at her mother's picture on the grave when she was still young. She felt depressed and sullen.
