Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 279

don’t know how to reject him either.”Lisa suddenly remembered last night when Blake got drunk and tugged at her sleeve, saying that he wanted to buy clothes for her.“Your wardrobe is all black, white, and gray. Don’t you think that’s a little depressing? Come on, I’ll buy some nice clothes for you. You’re freshly grown up, so you should wear more colors…”Lisa didn’t protest; she just thought he was funny. He dragged her to the nearest clothing store, but the shop was already closed for the day. He made a fuss and took out a card, then tossed it into the shop owner’s hands, saying he had five million on the card and that he wanted to buy the entire shop. He even told the shop owner the password. Shocked, the shop owner ran to a nearby bank to check, only to find out that everything Blake said was true. In case Blake regretted his decisions, the shop owner hastily took out the keys to the shop and tossed them into Blake’s hands, then quickly ran away.With that, only two people were left—Blake, who was smiling goofily, and Lisa, who was helpless.“This is my first time buying clothes for a woman… If you’re okay with it, just wear them.

Then, Harper continued, “Let’s play a game. Whoever loses will dance on the stage. How does that sound?”Elspeth raised an eyebrow. “Sure. What game are we playing?”“Word chain,” Gilbert said calmly.Elspeth immediately dropped her smile.Anyone who knew Elspeth knew that she was bad at her studies.If they played word games, she would be the first to lose.“I’m not playing. You guys have fun.” Elspeth turned around angrily, then watched the pretty ladies dancing on the stage.“What’s wrong? You’re already in your 20s. Are you so chicken that you don’t even dare play word games?”Gilbert’s voice was lazy but filled with ridicule, making Elspeth both pissed and annoyed. She wanted to decline, but she didn’t want to back down either, so she could only say yes.However, no matter how hard she tried, her capabilities were limited. The most she could do was delay
