Chapter 155
The sales assistant took out a box filled with various pendants.
"These are all solid gold, perfect for gifts!"
I looked at each one, feeling very happy inside. If Liz wore them, she would look amazing!
After some selection, I finally chose a pendant with an angel design and also bought a pair of gold bracelets, both very exquisite and beautiful.
After deciding on the gifts for Liz, I started looking for myself. After all, Howard and I haven't had our wedding yet, so it's not unreasonable for me to buy some jewelry for myself. Howard is so wealthy, no amount of jewelry would be too much!
"Gold rings, gold necklaces, gold bracelets..."
I carefully considered, deciding on a pair of bracelets and a ring. Knowing Howard's arrogant nature, he probably doesn't like gold much. We can buy a diamond ring together later.
After making my rounds, I bought a bunch of gold for myself, including rings and necklaces that weren't too heavy, but the two bracelets were particularly weighty.
The sales assistant's face was beaming with joy as she packed up a lot of gifts for me.
I walked out of the gold shop with bags in hand, feeling very content.
Thinking about it, the Smith family is quite wealthy, and gold might seem a bit tacky, so I decided to buy something else.
I went to a baby clothing store and picked out clothes in different sizes. Looking at the cute little outfits, my heart felt soft.
"If my child were still here, they would be due soon."
A wave of sadness washed over me, but I pressed my lips together and pushed the pain back down.
With a bunch of my purchases, I walked out of the mall feeling refreshed, grabbed a quick lunch, and headed home.
I repackaged the gifts for Liz and placed them in a delicate box.
In the evening, when Howard came home from work, I had already prepared dinner.
"Honey, thank you for your hard work."
Howard hugged me from behind, resting his chin on my shoulder.
I gently patted his hand.
"Alright, stop that. Go wash your hands. After dinner, I need your help picking out an outfit for tomorrow's party."
Howard didn't refuse my suggestion. After dinner, he pulled me to the wardrobe and personally helped me choose.
"How about this outfit, paired with a pearl necklace and these star earrings? Oh, didn't Matthew give you a pearl necklace? Use that one."
I was a bit surprised that Howard wasn't jealous and even suggested I wear a gift from Matthew.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm not irrationally jealous. I've thought about it, and you two are just friends. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. Besides, he saved you."
I frowned, scrutinizing Howard, feeling that something was off.
"Honey, be honest. Are you hiding something?"
Howard rolled his eyes, a bit speechless.
"Kathie, what on earth is going on in your head every day!"
I wasn't intimidated by Howard's tone. On the contrary, I stared at him intently until he felt a bit scared.
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you. I'm planning to introduce Matthew to a girlfriend!"
I blinked.
"Who?"
"You wouldn't know even if I told you. I'll take you to meet her in a couple of days!"
