Chapter 1904
While Caprice was surrounded by Heather and her friends who were trying to embarrass her, a cold and deep voice sounded behind them.
“Pack it.”
Caprice looked beyond Heather, and Heather and her friends turned around.
Liam, in his handsome suit, stood before them with the spotlight highlighting his figure. His deep gaze looked captivating. Caprice was surprised.
Heather's eyes flickered as she immediately stepped aside. Her friends followed her to the side as well.
They wanted to look at Liam but were not bold enough to look him in the eye.
The staff beside the display case came up to Liam and asked, “Master Carter, are you referring to the sunflower ear studs?” Liam looked at Caprice and hummed a reply. He then pulled a black card out of his pocket and gave it to the staff. Confused, Caprice furrowed her brows.
Why would Liam buy the sunflower ear studs? A present for Heather?
Caprice looked at Heather.
Heather looked at Liam with eyes full of anticipation. However, for some reason, she did not approach Liam and instead stood quite far away from him.
L
There was a hint of reverence on her face as well.
Was Liam mad at her for what she said earlier?
What a strange couple!
Caprice failed to understand Liam’s thoughts, so she simply kept an eye out for the two of them. Soon, the staff packed the pair of sunflower ear studs and gave it to Liam.
Liam held the ear studs in his hand. His deep eyes ignored Heather and disregarded Trey as they were fixated on Caprice. Caprice blinked innocently.
Why was he looking at her? Could it be that he bought the ear studs for her?
Liam captured every expression on her face. His brows furrowed slightly and said, “Come here.” Confused, Caprice pointed at herself. “Me?”
Liam looked at her. “Who else do you think I’m talking to?”
Caprice instinctively had a glance at Heather.
Heather and her friends stood on the side, looking awkward. She was clearly unhappy and displeased but dared not display it. She even had a hint of jealousy on her face like her friends.
Caprice could not understand the situation.
The other women toned down a little when they heard Heather. Heather then looked at Caprice. “Caprice, are you two just friends?” “What about it?” Caprice asked cautiously.
Heather said, “If | see something | like that’s expensive, | won’t let my friend buy it for me. Why don’t you buy it yourself, so that Young Master Rockon here won't have to embarrass himself?”
Caprice was surprised by Heather’s words.
Why would Heather want her to buy the ear studs herself?
Was it to mock her for being poor, or was it something else?
Trey did not understand it either.
Looking at Caprice and Trey’s baffled expressions, Heather scoffed.
She assumed Caprice was at a loss of action, hence the blank and baffled expression; the others shared the similar assumption.
They were all wealthy women who had been to many social events and they had seen many women pretending to be rich but were not. They all showed the same expression as Caprice when they were asked to buy something expensive.
One of the women got carried away and asked with a teasing smirk, “What’s wrong, little girl? Don’t have the money?” Caprice and Trey were both left speechless.
It was Caprice’s first time where someone asked her if she could afford something.
Trey did not expect that the only daughter of the richest man of Glenchester would be assumed poor.
While Caprice was surrounded by Heather and her friends who were trying to embarrass her, a cold and deep voice sounded behind them.

Caprice could not understand the situation.
Was Heather not Liam’s girlfriend? Heather always exerted her dominance in front of Caprice, yet when Liam was present, she dared not even make a noise.
“Caprice?” the man called her with his deep voice.
Caprice regained her composure and swiftly walked to Liam. Liam held her hand and hung the bag of ear studs on her wrist. The atmosphere plunged into an awkward silence.
Caprice was dumbfounded.
Heather and her friends were drowned in jealousy.
Trey was stunned.
The staff and some passersby were also shocked by the scene.
Aman hanging a bag of expensive earrings on a woman's wrist was nothing special unless the man was the owner of Carter Tech District and the woman was someone they did not know.
However, all the guests who attended the event were decently wealthy.
The woman must have had a strong background as well, and she looked pretty. She looked small in front of the man’s powerful aura but they would make a good-looking couple.
Did the man attend the event for the woman?
Caprice regained her composure. She neglected the curious gazes on her and curled her lips into a sweet smile at Liam. She said politely, “Thank you, Liam.”
Liam did not reply. He had one more glance at Trey behind her and then left without saying anything. Caprice was once again stunned.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
