CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 201 What If You Really Like Her

Katherine cracked a smile, “Well, that really sucks. I mean, though you haven’t even met this girl, what if you really like her?”

Lucas smiled and then somewhat teased, “Yeah, what if.”

Then the conversation about this just ended.

Katherine and Lucas browsed the whole Gifts section, but didn’t even buy a single item.

It can be a real struggle to find a buy birthday gift.

Lucas thought for a while and said, “How about we go and shop around the stores outside. They’re probably better than the inside ones.”

It was about noontime, so Katherine figured that she could just hang around for a while and leave by saying that she really needed to dine at home.

Katherine then didn’t reject Lucas and followed him into the stores outside the shopping mall.

Birthday gift can be really hard to pick, especially if you were shopping it for a rich man who was a senior at the same time.

The difficulty level was technically tripled.

After wandering yet another two stores, Katherine smiled, “How about you just call uncle Carson and just ask him what he prefers?”

Lucas shook his head and took a glance at the next store, “Let’s browse another one. You don’t know my dad. If I just ask him, he would think that I’m insincere. Picking a random present would be a better option.”

Katherine blinked and didn’t say anything.

She then followed into another store with Lucas.

Katherine went over to the counter which was exhibiting all kinds of cuffs.

She didn’t really know what the exact function of them, but rich people just seemed to like these gaudy things.

Katherine examined them and pointed at one pair of cuffs, “Lucas, look at those. What do you think?”

Lucas leaned over and asked the saleswoman to take them out.

It was a pair of silver cuffs which were engraved with quite complex patterns. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

They were made antique, but looked classy nonetheless.

Lucas picked them up and surveyed, “They do look pretty nice.”

The saleswoman hurriedly explained, “Your girlfriend really has a good taste. This pair of cuffs is our store’s new arrivals. We just exhibit them this morning and have only one stock in each district, so there is a fat chance to have the same cuffs with other people.”

Katherine took a deep breath, “Don’t take it wrong, miss. We aren’t...”

Then Katherine just stopped and didn’t find the necessity to explain it.

Lucas didn’t seem to mind the saleswoman’s words. After staring the cuffs for a while, he turned to Katherine, “You think they are pretty?”

Katherine nodded, “They are okay, at least prettier than the things we saw before. What’s more, they should be functional. I guess.”

Lucas then just said, “This one then.”

The saleswoman immediately packed it.

After Lucas paid it, the pair went out the store.

Katherine immediately spoke, “Well, it’s getting late. I really need to go home. Marshall is probably waiting for me to make lunch for him.”

Lucas quirked up the corner of his mouth, “I meant to treat you to lunch to thank you for picking this gift for me.”

Katherine hurriedly waved her hand, “There’s no need of that really. This doesn’t take much effort. Plus, you must be busy. I would hate it to hog your time.”

Lucas nodded, “Okay then. I will take you to lunch some other time.”

Katherine laughed and hailed a cab.

But she told the driver to stop after she was out of the sight of Lucas.

Sitting in the car, Katherine looked outside.

The car happened to be stopping at the plaza in front of the shopping mall.

Then she saw Clara and Mrs. Henderson who just got out of the car and wanted to shop around.

Katherine then paid the bill and got off the cab.

She surveyed them from afar.

They were all smiles and didn’t see Katherine.

Katherine just saw a vague profile of Mrs. Henderson in the private room when she bumped into the Hendersons last time with Marshall.

This time, she got the chance to examine Mrs. Henderson and found that she looked honestly quite affluent.
