Chapter 75
Zeke was clearly taken aback to see the woman before him.
“Serenity!”
Meanwhile, when Joy caught sight of her brother, she immediately launched into a complaint, “Zeke! You have no idea how shameless Serenity is! She actually asked me to buy her a dress that cost seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars! Can you believe that?! She doesn’t even deserve to wear something like that!”
“Shut up!” Zeke immediately reprimanded her with no hesitation.
His face twisted into a grimm expression. His sister was so reckless! Didn’t she want to live?! Serenity had Jackson behind her back! Forget about a dress costing seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars. Even if it was seven hundred and twenty million, Serenity would still deserve to wear it!
“Zeke, what’s wrong with you? Why did you raise your voice? I was only talking about Serenity,” Joy protested unhappily.
“There’s nothing more to say,” Zeke replied curtly before turning to the nearby salesperson and saying, “Wrap that dress up.”
His words shocked everyone in the store.
“Zeke, what are you doing? Are you seriously buying that dress for Serenity?!” Joy asked in disbelief.
Jenny furrowed her brows, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.
As for the salespeople, a look of delight appeared on their faces. A sale of seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars meant substantial commission!
“Serenity, I apologize for joy’s rudeness. Please forgive her immaturity and consider this dress an apology.” Zeke spoke while ignoring Joy, his tone extremely humbled.
Joy couldn’t believe what she was seeing. With the same disbelieving expression on her face, she practically hissed, “Zeke, why are you giving her the dress? What right does she have to it?! And an apology?! Who does she think she is?!”
The more Joy spoke, the more overwhelmed Zeke felt. He was afraid if Serenity mentioned any of this to Jackson, the Shaw family would be in trouble.
“Serenity, don’t mind what Joy said, okay?” Zeke said somewhat awkwardly.
Serenity looked at Zeke in confusion. He was suddenly willing to gift her a dress worth seven hundred and twenty dollars and treated her with a cautious attitude as if he was afraid of something NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
That begged the question. Just what did Serenity have that Zeke would be afraid of?
Serenity pursed her lips and said, “There’s no need to give me a dress. Just give me the cash equivalent and that’s fine. You still carry your checkbook with you, right, Mr. Shaw?”
She still recalled that Zeke had a habit of carrying his checkbook wherever he went.
Zeke was visibly stunned and struggled to react while Joy glared at Serenity with contempt.
“You even have the nerve to ask for money!”
“Why shouldn’t I? You’re the one who said you’d buy me a dress from this store. I’m simply converting the dress into cash,” Serenity replied.
“Are you crazy about money or something?!” joy shot back “My brother wouldn’t-”
Just then, Zeke pulled out his checkbook, wrote in the amount stated, and handed it over to Serenity,
“Zeke!” Joy exclaimed unhappily.
“That’s enough, Joy. Since you promised Serenity something, you should follow through. I’m just helping you to fulfill your word!” Zeke berated Joy and then turned to Serenity as he mustered a forced smile. “Here, Serenity. This is the check.”
