Edith followed the shop attendant around and her eyes widened in surprise upon seeing their price.

Neil let out a helpless laugh when his wife returned with only two pieces of the garment after following the shop attendant around for half an hour. No matter how the shop attendant had convinced her that she would look good in a garment, Edith would always find a way to reject them.

It seemed that his wife was not someone who can be easily swayed with pretty words.

In the end, Edith sat at the lounge as she watched her husband pointed around the store and chose some outfit. Then, she was dragged out from the store before they went to the next one.

The way he was choosing those clothes was almost the same as the way he was choosing clothes for Hazel. As long as he thinks that the outfit would look good on her, he would not hesitate to bring the clothes to the counter and asked the shop attendant to wrap them up.

It was only when he was satisfied with the number of clothes he bought that he took her away and leave.

Before they left the shopping district, Edith glanced at the paper bags piled at the side and sighed helplessly. As they could not carry the bags into the car, Neil had asked someone to deliver everything back to their place.

At this time that Edith started to wonder whether her husband was a shopaholic. But seeing the satisfied look on his face, Edith did not say anything. They are already husband and wife. Since he was willing to splurge on her, she did not have any reason to decline his intention.

When they both returned to the apartment, Sophie was in the living room, accompanying Hazel to watch her favorite show. 

"You're back." Sophie looked at the couple in front of her and noted their intertwined hands. A faint smile appeared on her lips, knowing that Edith had successfully coaxed her son to come back earlier from work. "Did you two go shopping?"

Hearing Sophie's words, Edith was suddenly a little embarrassed, especially, knowing that those bags contained most of her clothes. Just one look at the brand printed on the paper bag, one would be able to guess how much they would cost. 

"Hmm…" Neil nodded. "I saw a few pieces that I liked and decided to buy them."

The corner of her lips twitched. Sophie had taken a look at those bags earlier and saw that they were mostly women's clothing. From her son's words, wasn't he admitting to her that he was the one who chose those clothing?

When did her son know how to chose a woman's clothing?

"The delivery guy left a while ago. I had them send your bags upstairs." The smile on her lips widened as Sophie noticed her daughter-in-law's awkwardness. "Alright. Don't just stand there. Go upstairs and rest. Later, I'll bring Hazel next door to sleep with us."

After exchanging a few words with his mother, Neil tugged at Edith's hand upstairs.

Edith went into the bathroom to clean up and when she came out, her gaze stopped at the pile of paper bags at the corner of the room. Seeing that Neil was not around, Edith decided to look at the clothes that he had chosen for her. 

A tinge of surprise appeared on her face when she noticed that most of the color and style of clothing that Neil had picked was something that she would wear. 

Earlier, Edith was unable to tear up her gaze from her husband. It was the first time that she had seen him acting like a domineering president and she was momentarily stunned as she continuously watched him picking up some garments for her. She did not care to see whatever clothing he had picked up for her until now.

Picking up a few clothes from the bag, Edith tried on a skater dress and stepped into the mirror. Seeing that she looked good in that dress, Edith took a selfie and sent them to Lily.

A big smile spread on her lips when she saw Lily's approval.

Suddenly, Edith was a little curious to look at what her husband had picked for her. She went through a few paper bags and tried them on. A laugh escaped her whenever she found a few pieces that she did not think she would ever wear. Curious at how they were going to look at her, Edith tried them on and was surprised to see that the clothing looked really good on her.

By the time she had finished going through those clothing, Neil had not returned to the bedroom. Suddenly, a naughty thought came to her mind.

Didn't her mother-in-law say she was going to take Hazel to sleep with her next door?

Edith put on a set of clothing and put on a little makeup on her face. Then, she tiptoed to his study and knocked on the door.

Once she heard his voice, Edith pushed the door and peeked at him from the door. "Are you busy?"

"No. I just thought that I should look at a few documents while you're in the shower," Neil said. He stood up and turned off his computer. "I'll go and take my shower—" His words were left unfinished when Edith stepped into the room. Neil was a little stunned when he saw his wife in a stylish business suit that he had chosen earlier.

Edith stood at the center and twirled. "Do I look good in this?"

He leaned back on his chair and his gaze raked over her body. "Didn't I tell you that you would look good in everything?" He laughed when she rolled her eyes at him. "I bought so many clothes. Why do you choose to try this on?"

"I'm just curious to see how I would look like in this outfit," Edith said and shrugged. "Surprisingly this looks good on me."

"Of course." He raised a brow. "Didn't I know your body well?"

The tip of her ears reddened as she continued to listen to his teasing. Edith recalled the reason she had come over to his study and started to unbutton the two top buttons of her shirt. Then, she plumped up her chest and walked over with languid steps.

His throat rolled at the scene in front of him. Neil took a deep breath and steadied himself. "Darling…" His voice thick with desire. "What are you doing?"

"President Mo, tonight, you can call me Secretary Qian."

Neil tried to swallow, but it felt as if there was a lump in his throat. 

"Did you forget that there is a document you need to stamp on?"

"What document?" Neil stared at Edith with puzzlement at the sudden change of topic.

Edith stopped at the edge of his table and pulled at her collar, letting him take a glance at her chest. She pointed at a spot and smiled. "Here. Why don't you put a stamp here?"

The consequence was that the woman was pushed to lie down on top of the large desk. After being taken high to the clouds until they both lose their senses, the two laid down on the sofa to catch up their breaths.

Neil hugged his wife from behind as he continued to rain his kisses on her shoulders. He could not understand why she was a little enthusiastic, but Neil found that he really liked her little role-playing.

Suddenly, the woman in his embrace turned around to face him. Edith stared at him for a long time but did not say a thing.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Edith raised both hands to cup his face. "Darling, there's something that I need to tell you." There was a hint of hesitation in her tone.

His hands continued to roam around her body. "What is it?"

"I'm late."

"What do you mean?"

"My period is late for more than a week now."
