Chapter 697 The Feud (2) Go Shopping

Oscar was guided to a grand yard after he got out of Rowan's study. He stood in the yard, waiting for Lillian.

Lillian was dressing up in her room at the moment. After a while, she came out into the yard.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"I just got here," Oscar said, smiling.

Lillian, of course, knew what time Oscar arrived. She was also clear that he might not be sincere with her. But she still felt the kindness of his words.

"Let's go," said Lillian.

Oscar was near to her, slightly behind her, showing respect for the lady.

Lillian didn't like Oscar's respecting her, but she never told Oscar about it. She knew, there would be no more connections between them. Oscar was not aware of her father and brother's plan, but she was clear that Oscar was just the puppet of her family. If she formed an attachment to Oscar, she would lose a lot.

They were in the car, accompanied by the bodyguards.

"How much longer?" After a while, Lillian suddenly asked.

"Miss, about 10 minutes." The driver answered.

"Step on it!" Lillian covered her mouth and said, "I feel a bit carsick."

"Yes, Miss."

Then the car accelerated. Lillian felt worse as the car jolted.

"Stop the car." Asked Oscar.

The driver looked at Lillian in the mirror.

Lillian said, "Stop!"

Then the driver pulled the car over the road immediately.

"Lillian, just wait a moment." Oscar opened the door and said. He went away before Lillian spoke.

After a little while, Oscar came back with a few oranges in his hand. He got into the car, peeled an orange and gave the peel to Lillian. "Smell it, and you'll feel better."

Lillian took the peel and smelt it with a little doubt. Thanks to the refreshing scent, she felt a bit better indeed.

"All right, please go." Oscar asked the driver, "Drive well, and don't be too fast."

"Yes, sir."

The car started again and ran steadily.

"It's better to drive slowly when you feel carsick," Oscar explained to Lillian.

Lillian nodded, feeling a bit touched by Oscar.

"I never feel carsick before, maybe it's because I ate some oily food for breakfast today."

Oscar smiled, "Prepare some orange peels when you take a car next time."

Lillian responded. She looked out of the window with nameless sadness. She wondered if Oscar would still treat her so if he knew her family were using him.

The car arrived at the international mall. Lillian and Oscar went into the haute couture area together.

"My father asked me to pick up an evening dress for you. Just choose one, please, and I'll pay." Lillian said.

"Thank you. Are you going to attend the dinner tonight?" Oscar asked.

"No, my father didn't let me mix in his business, and it's my brother and sister that assist him." Saying, Lillian shook her head.

"Well."

"Do you think I'm useless?" Lillian asked suddenly.

"No, Mr Collins is just protecting you. That doesn't mean that you are incapable."

"Yes, my father dotes on me very much," Lillian said proudly.

Oscar gave her a perfunctory smile. Then he pointed at an average suit and said, "Is it okay?"

"It's too simple."

"But it suits me, I mean, my identity" Oscar explained.

"Do as you like," Lillian said, a bit displeased.

Oscar didn't care about her mind and asked the salesperson to take the suit for him. His face changed abruptly the moment he went into the fitting room. He thought of the old times when Hannah and he picked up evening dresses together, and remembered the question Theodore had asked.

He didn't answer Theodore at that time because he didn't know his choice. He thought, he could only make the decision when it came indeed.

Oscar changed the suit, regained his expression, and got out of the fitting room.

Lillian was reading a fashion magazine in the VIP room. She took a glance at Oscar when he just came out. She was charmed by Oscar at the moment.

Why did that plain suit look so nice on him? She had no idea whether she had underestimated the suit or his appearance.

"Do I look okay in this?" Oscar asked.

Lillian blushed, as she was enchanted with Oscar just now.

"Not bad," said she.

"Can I choose this one?"

"It's up to you," Lillian said with an indifferent attitude.

Oscar turned around to settle up.

"I'll pay for it." Lillian got up.

"No, thanks," Oscar said, "It's not expensive."

"All right. You've never been in want of money. You have a rich family, and you have a rich wife." Lillian felt a bit upset when she mentioned his wife. Oscar said nothing and settled up.

"Let's go," said he.

"I want to buy a bag," Lillian said.

Oscar nodded.

Oscar followed close on the heels of Lillian.

Lillian took a fancy to a limited-edition bag and asked him, "What do you think of this bag?"

"It's nice."

"How about this one?"

"Nice."

"This one?"

"Very good."

"Oscar, don't brush me off." Lillian felt displeased.

Oscar looked at her, not knowing what to say.

"Do you also have a perfunctory attitude when you go shopping with your wife?" Lillian asked. She unaccountably wanted to compare with Hannah.

Oscar suddenly realized that he seldom did shopping with Hannah. They tended to spend more time apart than together. They went shopping just because of the dinners. He had spent little time accompanying Hannah.

"Oscar! Are you hearing me?" Lillian cried, annoyed.

"I have never gone shopping with her," Oscar said.

Lillian was dumbfounded.

Oscar explained, "I don't know bags. But I think that you look very nice whichever bag you hold."

Lillian felt happy at his words. She always reckoned Oscar was not a glib man, but every time his words sounded nice. She thought, "What a pity! Why didn't we know each other sooner?"

Oscar almost spent the whole day accompanying Lillian. Lillian left the mall at 5:30 pm, with some reluctance.

Oscar got into Rowan's car as soon as they came back to the Collins Manor. Now, he was on the way to the battlefield.
