Chapter 226 Shopping

It was decided. Samuel also bought an average sunglass that covered half of his face. Steve also brought a cap to cover his hair. His disguise was complete.

" Remember to be back by six! I am telling you now because I don't trust them." Rick whispered to Rosaline. It took some time to convince Rick, but he placed several conditions before agreeing.

" Don't listen to him. You can come back tomorrow. You are already 24; it is good to enjoy yourself!" Allie had a different view of it.

" Also, you should not make the first move. Always remember what I taught you, alright?" She said it separately; if her husband heard it, he would throw another fit.

Steve prepared a large SUV that had plenty of space at the back. It was ideal for making deliveries, but Samuel was not worried about that; he was reviewing his list of things he intended to buy.

" Steve, take care of my car. I will be back by midnight."

" Yes, sir.  But please let few men follow you."

" Ok"

....

....

....

" Yes, park the car right here. We have to walk around, but the roads are narrow. It would be a pain to drive through them." Rosaline instructed.

" *Sigh* more shopping? you promised me a hearty meal!" Darren said as soon as he got out of the SUV.

" Patience, my friend. Rosa, can I call you Rosa?"

" Go ahead, Sami." She said with a smile. She was much more fierce than Samuel previously thought.

" WOW" Darren exclaimed, feeling the tension in the air.

" Uhmm...First, let's look for some toy store or a big convenience store that would be good."

" I know just the place."

She took them to an ordinary-looking store, "Happy Toys." It looked very shabby on the outside.

" Here? Are you sure?" Darren asked.

" Yeah, let's go in. You will be surprised, but they have to best toys in town."

Samuel and Rosaline entered; first, Darren, the third wheel, had no choice but to follow them.

" My, Rosaline. What brings you here?" An elderly woman was present at the counter.

" Aunty, we are here to buy some toys. Do you still have those yellow ones I saw a few months ago?"

" Yes, they are at the back; feel free to look around." The woman noticed that Rosa was with a boy. Her eyes sparkled seeing them. Is that girl finally got a boyfriend? She began observing Samuel with a knowing smile.

Samuel and Darren were surprised; the inside was much more excellent and littered with toys. There were also some big ones, and everything seemed to be handmade items.

" These are very nice. I can tell that the fiber is high quality." Darren picked up a few and inspected them with curious eyes. Soft fabric, and the dye didn't look artificial; the eyes and ears were also firmly placed so that children wouldn't be able to tear or accidentally swallow them.

" You are right." Samuel was also impressed. This was just what he was looking for, the prices were also very cheap compared to the luxury brands.

" You seem to know about toys. That really is surprising." Rosaline said to Darren. Darren was a tall guy with fierce facial features, utterly opposite of the normies that like these things.

" Don't be surprised. His mother told me when he was young, he liked to dress up and had a huge toy collection!" Samuel brought up his dark history.

" Shut up! It was a one-time thing! When did your mother tell you about it? " Darren, hiding his embarrassed expression, was angry that his mother spilled the beans. It was supposed to be their secret.

"Pfff...hahaha, I get it now." Rosaline chuckled. Her melodies laughter was very captivating that Samuel almost froze on the spot; Darren missed it because he had his back toward them.

" Don't laugh. It was just a childhood hobby!"

" Shit! That's dangerous; how much more will she surprise me?" Samuel thought and decided to make more jokes. It was terrible for his heart!

" Ok, I have decided we will take everything."

" Huh?" It was the first time that Rosaline had shopped like this. She was undecided whether he was joking or not?

" It's a big place. So, they could use the spare ones in the future."

"Is that so?"

" Darren, you could also pick something up; I will buy it for you."

" Fuck you!"

That day they wiped the store clean; the elderly woman was dumbfounded at first, but when Samuel casually swiped the card, she knew they were not ordinary young men. A hundred grand worth of toys; Samuel even cleans their warehouse.

" I will have someone deliver the rest of it to your location. You said you have to buy some more things, right? Come back in an hour to pick up these." It would take some time for them to pack everything.

" Ok, We will be back," Rosaline asked. She was still processing but seeing the broad smile on the woman's face was good.

" We should only take a few for now. Packing these hundred toys in a few hours would be a hassle." Darren asked.

" Ok, let's do that."

" Young man, come here for a second." the elderly woman called Samuel to the side. Samuel didn't know what was going on, but he followed her.

" Is something wrong, Aunty?" Rosaline asked, but the elderly woman wanted to talk with him privately.

" Did you want to say something?"

" Yeah, Why are you buying this many?"

" Oh, It's for the Orphanage. I thought you wanted to ask something serious."

" It is serious; we put our everything into making these. I don't want them to sit in some storage collecting dust."

" Don't worry; I am sure kids would be happy to receive such great toys."

" Good also-" She paused.

" Take good care of our Rosa, that child had been through a lot recently, but it was good to see her smile today." She said with a warm smile. Samuel understood what she meant and judged there was no reason to ruin her mood.

" Rest assured. I will take good care of her."
