FakeNovelChapter 260
If Felicia were still around, | could pick a few gifts for her.
| picked up a bracelet and imagined how it would look on Felicia, but then I shook
my head gently.
This one was too cheap and low-quality. It didn't suit her at all. She should be wearing jewels and diamonds, not
this small trinket.
"Hey, William. Do you like this one?"
Isabelle suddenly leaned over.
Seeing the bracelet in my hand, she laughed. "If you like it, you can keep it. I'll buy
it for you as a token of appreciation for all the help you've given today."
"No thanks. | don't like it."

| immediately put it down.
To my surprise, she picked it up again and personally fastened it around my wrist. "William, you don't have to be
embarrassed! It's not expensive at all. It's just over a hundred dollars. | don't mind buying it for you.
"Besides, you helped Charlotte andso much today. We must show our gratitude. Just wear it, okay?"
This... This was clearly a bracelet for a woman. What would | do with it?
| was speechless.
But | couldn't keep refusing when | saw the sincere look in Isabelle's eyes. After thinking about it, I finally
accepted it.
"Thank you then."
| told myself to pretend that | liked it. Otherwise, Isabelle would feel bad and uncomfortable.
Seeingaccept the bracelet, Charlotte snorted in disdain. "Why didn't you just say you liked it from the
beginning? A grown man acting all coy. It's disgusting!"
"Charlotte, what are you saying?"
Charlotte sneered. "I'm not wrong. He's trying to act generous but still wants a gift: With his reputation and
status, just walking around with us is probably the best luck he's ever had. Yet, he's now brazenly asking fora
for a gift worth over a hundred. How shameless can he get?"
"Charlotte! Enough! It was my choice to give William a gift. It has nothing to do with him."
Isabelle shot her friend an angry look. Charlotte had no choice but to keep quiet, though she shotone last
look of contempt.
We shopped for another hour or so, and just when Charlotte started complaining about her sore feet, my phone
rang.
It was the store manager from Silence calling.
They never called unless there was something important, so | immediately answered.
"Mr. White, your friend cby again to buy something. I'm calling to ask if | should give her a discount."

"My friend?"
Since discovering the Silence store, | had only ever brought Felicia there. Could the friend they were referring to
be her?
My heart suddenly raced. "Keep her there. Don't let her leave. I'll be right there!"
| hung up and immediately turned to Isabelle. Isabelle, something urgent cup. | need to leave for a bit, but
I'll return soon. Can | leave your things somewhere safe for now?"
"Okay, sure. Just put them in the car."
She handedher car keys. Without explaining further, | rushed to the parking lot, stuffed the things into the
car, and headed straight for Silence upstairs.
However, as | rushed in and searched for Felicia, | unexpectedly ran into Lina. | froze.
The store manager gavea knowing look and subtly pointed toward Lina.
It suddenly dawned on me. It turned out that the friend the store manager mentioned was actually Lina.
A crushing disappointment hit me, and | almost collapsed from its weight.
