Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 371 A Rare Patience

After four years of scraping by, how could Sadie, who grabbed socks on clearance for just $18.80 for a box, bring herself to splurge on a pair that cost $1,888? But the words were out, and there was no turning back now. With a sigh, she bit the bullet, bought the white socks, asked the clerk to wrap them nicely, and handed them to Micah. "Here, I got these for you. I've already paid!"

Micah opened the package and examined the white socks. It was a plain-looking pair, nothing special, but he couldn't be happier. It was the first gift he had ever received from Sadie. The corner of his mouth curled into a smile. "Thank you!" "Huh?" Sadie was taken aback, almost certain she had misheard. She couldn't recall ever hearing him say these words before and had begun to think that he simply didn't know how. Now, hearing them, she started to doubt her ears. "Good evening, sir." A sales associate approached with enthusiasm. "These are the latest seasonal arrivals for both men's and women's wear. Please feel free to try anything on."

Several clerks wheeled racks of clothing over, eagerly urging Micah to browse.

"Let's take a look." Micah nodded slightly.

"I don't need to try anything on. It's not like I'll get a chance to wear such clothes," Sadie remarked, eyeing the garments on the racks. They were indeed beautiful. She had enjoyed picking out this brand when her father was alive. But now, even if she bought them, she felt she had no occasion to wear any.

Micah, uninterested in small talk, stood up, picked out a suit for himself, and then casually selected seven dresses for Sadie. "Come on, try these on!"

"I said I didn't want to..." Sadie attempted to refuse, but knowing Micah's temperament, she didn't want to make a fuss in front of so many people, so she reluctantly agreed to try them on.

"The ladies' changing room is right over here." Two female clerks ushered Sadie away, while two male clerks attended to Micah.

Micah quickly changed into the fresh clothes, instantly feeling more comfortable, and the slight furrow in his brow eased. Meanwhile, Sadie stepped out of the dressing room in the first shirt dress. Standing before the mirror, she regarded her reflection as if she were looking at a stranger.

"That looks good. You can wear it on a business trip," Micah suggested, finishing with his cufflinks and stepping out.

Sadie looked up to see Micah, freshly attired and still infuriatingly handsome. The suit was a touch more casual than his usual attire, lending him a softer edge to his usually imposing demeanor. "It looks good on you." She eyed him up and down. "How much is it?"

"One hundred and eighty-three thousand," the clerk replied with a polite smile.

"Uh..." Sadie swallowed and looked down at her own shirt dress. "And how much for this one?"

"Oh, this piece is not that expensive. It's sixty-eight thousand," the clerk replied with a respectful tone.

"Let's just forget it..." Sadie thought of changing back.

"Wrap it up!" Micah commanded directly. "Try on something else."

"Do we have to?" Sadie whispered. "Why on earth are you buying me clothes?"

"You gave me a gift. I should return the favor." Micah tapped the sock gift box beside him. "Go on. I'm rarely this patient."

"Miss, right this way, please." The service here was proper, not overly eager yet warm and polite.

Reluctantly, Sadie continued trying on clothes, and in the end, Micah bought all seven outfits he picked for her, including several pairs of high heels and two sets of jewelry.

When it came time to pay, the total was over two million. three hundred thousand.

Sadie's heart bled, but Micah casually remarked, "Just make do with these for now. I'll have my designer tailor something for you later."

"The gentleman is so kind to his lady. I'm envious!" a clerk couldn't help complimenting.

Sadie's face turned crimson, and she quickly clarified. "No, you're mistaken..."

"It's fine." Micah cut Sadie off and gestured at the pile of bags. "Grab them, let's go!"
