Semua Bab Spoiled by Mr. Russell: Bab 371 - Bab 380

With such a close distance, along with her own aroma, she had pretty high confidence. "You speak the Westwood language?" Alexander was shocked because he did not know about this. "A little bit," she smiled. She did not think it was something worth sharing. In contrast, the store they were at was much more worth discussing. "It's fascinating here." Alexander did not ask any further questions because she obviously did not want to discuss the matter of being able to speak the language. He continued her topic, "Then take a guess, what’s the material for this?" The clerk beside him was about to speak, but Alexander stopped him with his eyes. Seeing him full of confidence, as if he was sure she could not guess the material, Lily was a little amused, "Southbank soap. Did you think I couldn’t answer?"Alexander kept quiet. The smile on his face condensed for a moment. He probably did not expect her to answer accurately in one go, "You’ve seen this before?" "I h

A thought flashed through Lily’s mind. Seeing the look on his face, she wanted to tease him. She smiled gently and said half-jokingly, “I think the store is quite interesting. Why don’t you buy it, Mr. Russell?”Of course, she was only joking. No matter how wealthy a businessman was, he needed to plan before making any moves. It was not like buying clothes where one could buy whatever they fancied.However, she had forgotten that Alexander was not an ordinary person. To him, buying such a store was not like buying clothes. It was as simple as buying a cup of coffee or a bun.Thus, he replied, “Okay.”Lily was taken aback. “What?!”‘Hahaha.’ Alexander laughed to himself.“B-But…” Lily looked at Alexander's expression and realized that he was not joking. She quickly changed her words and said, “I was joking. Please don’t take it seriously. You should think carefully before deciding to buy a store.”“There’s no need to think further. If you’re okay with it, it’s good enough.” Alexa

She did not hate Southbank soap, but it was too insincere to treat corporate gifts as gifts.“It seems that this gift isn’t valuable enough to satisfy you. It’s okay. I have other gifts.” He caught up with her in a few steps and blocked her way.Lily could not do anything but stand there and stare at him as he blocked her path. “Is it another gift under the guise of a corporate gift?” As expected, businessmen would seize every opportunity to generate profit. He did not miss any business opportunities, even when he brought her out to play.“Of course not!”Lily stared at him for a while before she reached out, “Where’s my gift?”He hurriedly handed her the gift bag he was holding, “Didn’t you say you don’t want it?”“I changed my mind!” She opened the bag and looked inside. Unlike ordinary soaps with various fragrances, they had a faint smell of vegetable oil. No matter the color or shape, their smell was the same. The only difference was the concentration of the scent.She did

“What kind of Southbank fish was used in this dish?” Lily tried to recall the taste of the stew. She could not identify the fish used, but she could taste a tinge of garlic, bay leaf, fennel, and cilantro. The most robust taste of the stew was the sourness of the tomatoes, onions, and celery. There were also several vegetables she would typically not eat as she disliked them, but they were not overbearing when used in the stew, and the taste was acceptable. “There isn’t a certain type of Southbank fish used in the stew,” Alexander explained while smiling as he heard her question. Lily immediately understood that she had asked a silly question. Bouillabaisse was a kind of stew that was traditionally made with Southbank fish. The fish used in the stew did not matter as it depended on their catch of the day. Lily was glad that it was only Alexander who had witnessed her embarrassment.     “Then what kind of fish was used in this specific stew? I wasn’t able to identify it,” Lily too

Lily’s eyebrows went up in surprise. Firstly, she realized that it was a girl’s name. That was not the critical part. The main issue was that she saw Alexander furrow his eyebrows.With a tap on the screen, he rejected the call.Before he could put his hand back onto the steering wheel, another call came in. Just the ringtone alone was enough to make one nervous.Sighing, he put one hand by the window and reached out with his other to reject the call. Lily blocked his hand. “Answer. It might be urgent.”“I can leave if that’s more convenient for you.” as she said, she undid her safety belt.“It’s not necessary.” Alexander tugged on her. He picked up the phone and answered, “What is it?”“Sob sob sob sob…”Sobbing came from the other end of the line, scaring Lily. She blinked, wondering if she was hallucinating. Alexander was speechless. He looked a little impatient too. “Call me again after you’ve finished crying.”After that, he hung up the call.Lily did not know what to s
