“Miss, please be careful” All of the bodyguards loosed visibly worried, as if they wished to hold her hand and provide support as she walked.

Tmbine. Don’t worry.” Lana waved them away in annoyance.

Then, she complained to Larissa, feigning annoyance. My husband can be so overbearing. I told him I wanted to go shopping, and he goes and sends a whole baltalion of guards to tal me. He’s constantly worried Imight stumble, calling me every ten minutes. I’m not a three–year–old, for heaven’s sake. Why does he worry so much?”

Larissa could see the pride in Lana’s gaze, and she had come here to flaunt it all

“What’s good about that? Lana chuckled, voicing her complaint

Then, She raised her hand to show her bracelet. “Just look at this. It’s so old–fashioned. He insisted on buying it for me and spent over six

“Realy?” Lana tock off the bracelet and forcefully placed it in Larissa’s hand as she socke

“Since you like you, you can have it as a gift. I don’t like it anyway.”
