Chapter 34
"Natalie, since you're here, why don't you stay a few more days? Isabelle's birthday is coming up!" Marilyn said with a smile.
"Sure!"
Natalie glanced at Kane in the kitchen and nodded gently.
Before long, Kane made himself a steak and pasta and came out.
"Kane, Isabelle's birthday is coming up. What gift are you planning to give her?" Natalie asked with a smile.
"Isabelle and I haven't had a wedding yet, so I'll prepare a luxurious wedding for her!"
Kane rubbed his nose, suddenly inspired.
"A luxurious wedding?"
"Bullshit!"
"Do you even have a hundred dollars on you?"
"You're all talk!"
Marilyn said rudely.
Kane pulled out a hundred dollars from his pocket and slammed it on the table!
Marilyn was speechless.
He actually had a hundred dollars!
"Marilyn, I'll show you all my sincerity!" After finishing his meal, Kane turned and went upstairs.
Marilyn looked confused.
Jason reminded her, "I gave him that hundred dollars to buy snacks for Winnie."
Marilyn immediately got angry and yelled upstairs, "If you're so capable, let us ride in a custom Rolls-Royce too!"
"Actually..."
Natalie beside her hesitated.
She really wanted to say that the custom Rolls-Royce actually belonged to Kane.
But she never opened her mouth.
The next day was Sunday, but Isabelle was still very busy.
The project was in its early stages, so overtime was normal.
Jason was helping out too.
As for Marilyn, she took Winnie to the amusement park.
Finally having some free time, Kane lay on the couch, lazily playing on his phone.
Natalie came downstairs and said with a sweet smile, "Kane, will you come out with me today?"
"No, I'm busy!"
Kane stared at his phone without looking up.
"Please!"
"You can't let me go alone, can you?"
"Harborview City isn't safe these days. What if something happens?"
Natalie pouted, hugged Kane's arm, and acted cute.
Kane looked surprised.
He didn't expect this somewhat aloof teacher to have such a charming side.
"Alright, I'll be your bodyguard for the day."
Kane shrugged.
"You're the best!" Natalie was very happy.
"By the way, are you really going to prepare a luxurious wedding for Isabelle?" Natalie asked.
Kane's eyes lit up. "Of course! We can check out what we need to prepare later!"
Natalie rolled her eyes!
I begged you for so long and you were lifeless, but mention preparing a wedding for Isabelle and you're all energized!
Outside, Bayonet was waiting in a car.
It was a brand new Audi with temporary plates, relatively affordable but still worth a million dollars.
"Kane, yesterday a Rolls-Royce, today a million-dollar Audi. You're something!"
Natalie wasn't a car enthusiast, but she had a friend who was obsessed with cars and constantly talked about them.
Through exposure, Natalie had gained some knowledge about cars.
Kane was silent.
Really?
He was already being low-key, and she was still this surprised?
"Stop talking nonsense and get in the car!"
They got in the car and sped off.
In the car, Natalie stared at Kane with curious eyes.
Yesterday it was a Rolls-Royce, today a brand new million-dollar Audi. Obviously yesterday was too high-profile, so today he wanted to be more low-key.
Being low-key meant driving a million-dollar Audi?
Just how rich was Kane?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kane frowned.
"I want to dissect you and see what secrets you're hiding."
Natalie made a playful gesture.
"You're crazy!"
"Kane, Isabelle's parents don't like you. Why don't you two get divorced?"
"Divorced? You want me to be alone forever?"
"You could consider me! I'm beautiful, and my figure is just as good as Isabelle's!"
Natalie stuck out her chest and struck an alluring pose.
Kane glanced at Natalie.
He had to admit, in certain areas, she did have some advantages over Isabelle.
"Stop joking around!"
Kane shrugged, taking Natalie's words as a joke.
"Who's joking? Want me to show you my sincerity?"
Natalie licked her sexy red lips and slowly unbuttoned one button.
Whether it was unbuttoned or just popped open, that tempting cleavage instantly appeared before Kane's eyes.
"Natalie, if you keep this up, you're getting out of the car." Kane said seriously.
"You can't take a joke at all."
Natalie was a bit unhappy and reluctantly buttoned up again.
Lumiere Couture.
A very famous bridal shop in Harborview City, and even throughout all of Valdoria!
Through the transparent glass, you could see beautiful wedding dresses!
"Kane, you're not planning to buy Isabelle a wedding dress here, are you?"
Natalie was shocked. "Lumiere Couture is a nationally famous bridal shop! Every piece is expensive and in high demand. I heard people booking wedding dresses here are already scheduled three months out."
"In all of Harborview City, Lumiere Couture is second only to Aurora Bridal!"
"Looks like I have good taste."
"Only such a fine wedding dress is worthy of my wife."
Kane nodded with satisfaction.
As for what Natalie said about waiting three months, he didn't even think about it.
"Lumiere Couture belongs to the Crawford family, one of Harborview City's three major families!" Natalie continued.
"The Crawford family?"
Kane's pupils contracted.
Years ago when the Lockwood family was wiped out, the Crawford family was one of the culprits!
"Although wedding dress bookings are three months out, maybe I can help you."
"The person in charge of Lumiere Couture has been pursuing me, constantly asking me to parties."
Natalie quickly added, afraid Kane would misunderstand, "He's sent me tons of messages, but I haven't replied to a single one!"
"What does that have to do with me?" Kane shrugged.
"Should I call him to help?" Natalie asked.
"No need!"
Kane waved his hand and walked into the bridal shop with Natalie.
"I want to order a wedding dress like this one, and I need it in three days!"
"Money is no problem!"
Walking into the shop, Kane pointed at the most expensive wedding dress worth a million dollars!
"Sorry sir, our shop's wedding dresses are currently booked three months out. Even if you order now, you can only get it after three months."
The staff member said indifferently.
"Can't you understand? I said I need this wedding dress made in three days!" Kane said firmly.
Natalie looked at him with admiration.
Kane was so dominant!
So attractive!
Kane had an impressive presence, but his clothes were ordinary.
The staff member had seen many important people and thought Kane was just putting on an act.
He said coldly, "Sir, our bridal shop isn't a place where just anyone can cause trouble! Our shop is the Crawford family's business!"
"Is the Crawford family that impressive?"
Kane sneered.
"You're talking like you're so impressive. Do you know how much this wedding dress costs? Can you afford it?"
"Stop pretending, you poor guy, and get lost!"
The staff member's eyes were full of contempt.
"How much is this wedding dress?" Kane said calmly.
"One million eight hundred thousand dollars! The deposit alone is three hundred thousand dollars! Can you come up with that?"
Kane frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"Scared now, aren't you? Poor guy!"
The staff member thought Kane was frightened and burst out laughing.
