Chapter 93: Shopping Trip

When we finally woke up a few hours later, I was shocked to see that it was almost noon.

"How did we sleep in so long?!" I exclaimed as I hopped out of bed to get changed back into my office clothes.

"Hmm?" Christian woke up from my outburst. "Noon already? Damn, that was some of the best sleep of my life."

He turned to his side and watched me frantically run around to get dressed.

"Excited for your shopping trip?" he asked teasingly.

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, you have no idea." My words were filled with sarcasm, causing him to let out a low chuckle.

"Do you want me to be the big bad boss and tell them that I changed my mind? You can stay here with me. I’ll clear my schedule and we can have some fun."

"As wonderful as that sounds, unfortunately, it’s a bit late. The driver just messaged me that he’s here," I replied, putting my phone back into my purse.

Christian pretended to pout, "At least let me kiss you before you go."

A small smile crept up on my face. I walked over to the bedside and leaned over to kiss Christian like he had asked.

The moment our lips pressed together, I felt him hand me something.

"What’s this?" I asked, looking down after the kiss.

"Buy yourself whatever you want. Don’t hold back," he smiled.

In my hand was a sleek black credit card. There was no name or logo on it, just a few numbers.

I was speechless. Though my family had money, I never had the satisfaction of actually seeing any of it. Usually, all of the purchases were made by my mother.

"Christian...I can’t acc--"

"Just take it. Please. Plus, you’ve been working at my company, you deserve to get paid. Seriously, buy yourself whatever you want." He gently tucked a piece of loose hair behind my ear.

I fought back the tears as I looked into his blue eyes, "Thank you, Christian. I’ll buy myself something nice."

"Good. Tell me all about the trip later. I want to hear about how it went."

He kissed me one last time before walking me over to the doors to his office. "Have a good time, I’ll miss you."

"I’ll miss you too," I smiled and ran towards the elevator. The driver sent me another message as I made my way down, reminding me that he was waiting for me.

It’s been three minutes! Please wait a moment!

I tucked Christian’s credit card into my purse, making sure it was secure. I couldn’t begin to imagine how much of a credit limit this card had if Christian told me to buy everything I wanted.

I could probably buy the mall itself, and he wouldn’t bat an eye.

As I made it down, I was surprised to see the family limousine instead of the usual car that drove me.

Morgan rolled down the window. "It’s about time you showed up! Get in before we leave you here."

Actually, I’d prefer if you did leave me here...

Opposite of what I wanted, I hastened my steps and got inside of the car. Both Morgan and Cherie were dressed as if they were late for a runway show, wearing beautiful dresses, heels, and jewelry.

Sitting beside them, I looked more like their personal assistant than sister/friend.

They each looked out of the window, refusing to even look at each other.

I wonder what happened after I left.

The air was thick with hostility. I could easily sense their disdain for each other. Their actions told me that this trip wouldn’t be as simple as I had hoped. All I wanted now was for them not to make a scene in public, because if my mother heard about it, I knew that I would be included in the punishment.

-

The mall was huge, with hundreds of people coming and going. Our driver pulled up to the main entrance, causing all of the people around to stop and look at us.

Morgan loved the attention. She was the first to step out and lifted her head up high, acting like she was the queen of this land.

Cherie followed behind, doing her best to try and overstep Morgan’s popularity. She spun around, showing off her diamond-studded skirt. This caused a few people in the crowd to begin discussing them.

By the time I stepped out, everyone was too fixated on the two of them that no one paid me any attention. Morgan clearly felt smug at this reaction and flashed me a condescending smile.

Looks like her ’good mood’ from earlier didn’t last even half a day.

"Leslie, dear sister, could you hold my purse for me? It’s a bit difficult to carry while wearing this dress," she said, acting like a princess.

Here it begins..

I let out a small sigh and put on my best ’innocent’ and ’virtuous’ persona. "Sure, not a problem!" I smiled.

She didn’t hesitate and tossed her purse to me, nearly hitting me with it. "Good, don’t fall behind. I plan on buying a lot today. Father gave me his card."

"Father?" I asked, surprised. He had never done such a thing before.

"He was in a very happy mood today. A servant came over and told him something, putting him in a very good mood. He quickly called me over and told me to buy myself something nice."

What could possibly put Father in such a good mood? I’ve never seen him give his card out to anyone, even Mother...

Suddenly, Christian’s words rang in my head. I remembered what he told me about leaving Morgan’s thong on his bed.

Could it be that Father is happy about the possibility of Christian and Morgan having crossed the line?

While I was thinking through the various possibilities, we made our way inside the massive mall. It consisted of four floors with dozens of stores on each level.

Morgan led us to the first store. The moment we entered, I nearly fell over. It was a designer boutique that specialized in...lingerie.

Why are we here?

Ignoring my shocked expression, Morgan walked forward and began to inspect the many mannequins that displayed the newest styles.

Lace corsets, fishnet stockings, and sexy panties were all on display. Morgan walked up to each mannequin with a contemplative gaze.

"I wonder what style Christian likes the most..."

Her voice trailed off as she saw an obnoxious multicolored babydoll-style chemise. It was accented with feathers and gemstones, reminding me of a type of exotic bird.

I’m sorry, sister, but I don’t think Christian could even get hard if you wore that.

The moment she saw it, she snapped her fingers to call over a saleswoman. "This one, I want the whole set."

"Yes, of course. There are two different options for panties. Would you like to see them?" the saleswoman asked politely.

"No need, I’ll take one of each."
