His Heiress Wife (Retika)
Chapter 75: Sisterly Bonding Time

Chapter 75: Sisterly Bonding Time 

Melody was casually walking out of the school gate when she felt her phone vibrate from herpocket.She dug through her pocket to fish out her phone and then she read the name that flashedacross her screen as her phone continued to vibrate.

It was Sarah.

The call was barely connected when Sarah's excited voice came from the other end, "Mellie, are youout of school? I came to pick you up.Let's go shopping together, okay?"

Melody winced as she stretched her phone away from her ear, but she could still hear her sister's loudvoice.She couldn't help but scowl in distaste.

'Why were all of them like Luke? Why were they always such in high spirits?' It hurt her ears! Then,Melody remembered what Sarah had said.She had never done something like shopping before.

If she had time to go shopping, she might as well sleep at home.

Melody thought that idea sounded much better than shopping.

She nodded along silently to her train of thought as if to agree with herself.

But just as she was about to hang up the phone, she suddenly remembered what she saw last nightand quickly changed her mind.

"Send me the address" Melody said.

After hanging up the phone, Melody received a message from Sarah.

It contained the location of the nearby shopping mall.

Melody glanced at it and her lips curved into a beautiful are.

Five minutes later, Melody arrived at the shopping mall where Sarah was.

Melody walked through the automatic doors of the mall and looked around.She saw Sarah waiting forher by the side.

Melody silently observed Sarah as the latter excitedly whipped her head around, gazing from one shopto the other.

It seemed like Sarah was in a good mood today.

When she finally turned her head in Melody's direction, a large smile immediately made its way to herface as she rushed over to where Melody stood.

Sarah innocently blinked up at her, and there was a playful glint in her eyes as she and hooked her armaround Melody's.

Then she lowered her voice and said, "Mellie, I'll tell you a secret.I just got my advertising endorsementfee, and my bank account has been added another sum.I am so happy today and is ready to take youon a crazy shopping spree"

After Sarah left the Sullivan family, she took advantage of their reputation to establish her image as abeauty blogger.

She taught her fans how to do their makeup and how to dress up.She also shared the advantages anddisadvantages of various luxury brands and the way to appraise them.

Sarah was somewhat famous online.Sarah silently glanced at her sister from the corner of her eye.

Melody had been back with the Sullivan family for a while now, but she still wore a t-shirt and a pair ofboring jeans every day.

Sarah was worried that the students from her school would look down on Melody.She tightened hergrip on Melody's arm and marched forward to the nearest shop.

After she received her advertising endorsement fee, she decided that today would be the day she tookher sister shopping to buy some clothes for her.

Melody frowned and looked at Sarah with confusion and doubt in her eyes.

Seeing that she was in a daze, Sarah patted her chest and promised her with a confident voice, "Don'tworry, I'll make sure that you will look beautiful afterward.I'll personally see to it that you'll end uplooking stunning.You are so beautiful.If you don't look the part, your pretty face would be such a waste"

Melody only came along to inform Sarah of Ethan's extramarital affairs so that she could see Ethan'strue nature and leave the scumbag as soon as possible.

But at that moment, as she looked at the happy expression on her sister's face, she hesitated.She likedseeing Sarah so happy and carefree.She didn't want this kind of smile to disappear from her face.

As for that Ethan, since he had the audacity to cheat and date two people at the same time, let him paythe consequences for cheating.

Melody snapped herself out of the trance she was in and shook her head fervently to deter Sarah.

"No need.I have clothes!"

She then freed herself from Sarah's grip and turned around to leave.

However, Sarah wasn't planning on giving up without a fight.She rushed forward and clung ontoMelody's arm.

Melody turned to glare down at Sarah's hands on her arm.

When Sarah saw how cold Melody's gaze had become, she instantly let go of her arm and steppedback.

Even though she had let Melody go, she was still not willing to give up.

Sarah looked at her with a pitiful expression on her face that she hoped was enough to convince hersister to stay.

"Mellie, I Know you have clothes.But those clothes of yours are too boring.Can I buy you two more?"Sarah said, her lips turning into a pout.

Her eyes fluttered as she desperately tried to convince Melody.

"No, it's a waste of money!" Melody responded in a dismissive tone.

She knew that Sarah's clothes had always been from big and popular brands.

The chief designers would personally handle the production of her clothing down to her socks.

Melody suppressed the urge to shiver at the blatant show of money.

She refused to wear clothes that came from establishments like this luxurious shopping mall.

Unfortunately, Sarah didn't understand what Melody meant.

From what she could understand, Melody was trying to save money for herself.

They all belonged to the same family, but Melody was far more frugal than Charles and Reagan.

Although the Sullivan family was wealthy, all of their wealth was in Grandpa Alistair's hands.

Quince had strict control over his children's spending money.

Other than Sarah, the rest of them were studying and had no other sources of income.

As the youngest of the family, Charles would often replace Sarah when he didn't have enough money.

He was never one to hold back whenever he asked for money.

Every time he opened his mouth, he would always ask for at least $15,000.

Even Reagan took a lot of money from her.

Sarah only wanted to buy two pairs of clothes for Melody, but she was worried Sarah would spare noexpenses for her sake.

With that thought in mind, Sarah was even more determined to buy clothes for Melody.

She didn't want to come off as biased and treat Melody unfairly.

Sarah pouted more, hoping she could convince her.

"Let's go.Just take it as a favor for me, okay? You know that I'm a beauty blogger, and I often have towear many different clothes.I'll buy you clothes, and you can be my model.I will only take two photosand share them to my followers, okay?"

Worried that Melody would disagree, Sarah quickly explained, "I know that you don't like your face tobe exposed on social media, so I'll just show the clothes.Melody, please help me.Otherwise, I wouldhave no content to post.Can you promise your sister?"

Unable to stand her pleading any longer, Melody nodded her head in resignation.

Sarah's mood immediately brightened afterwards.

Ignoring Melody's disdainful gaze, she hugged Melody's arm and pulled her forward.

Although Sarah's figure was not bad, she was half a head shorter than Melody.

In addition, she knew that she was going shopping today, so she made sure to wear flat shoes.

In this way, when she held Melody's arm, she gave the impression of being cute and lovable.

Sarah was quick to shrug it off.

It couldn't be helped because Melody's aura was too strong.

Although Melody was not very tall, she had a powerful presence.

Sarah pulled Melody up to the third floor, where they could replace boutiques selling women's clothing.Shedidn't want to buy cheap clothes for Melody.If she wanted to buy something, she had to buy from luxurybrands.

Sarah thought to herself that even if it was a bit more expensive, she could still try her best to afford tobuy Melody some branded clothes.

Sarah pulled Melody into a high-end luxury store.

As soon as they entered the store, the clerk recognized Sarah, "Miss Sarah, there's a new bagrecently.You came at the right time.Do you want to take a look?"

Sarah felt her heart clench in pain.

They even had a new bag in the store.

Sarah thought that she must have terrible luck because they had to have the new bag today of all dayswhen she was supposed to be solely focused on Melody.

It was important to know that when a new product was released by a brand-name bag, if you are not asenior customer, the staff of the store would not specifically mention it because those new designswould only be available for the top VIP customers.

They were the sort of things that couldn't be obtained even if they had money.

What a difficult situation! After Sarah eventually got over her pain, she decided to give up on the newproduct.

She smiled gently.

"No need.I'm not here to see new products today.I'm here to buy clothes for my sister.Are there anynew clothes in your shop?"

The situation was proving to be favorable for the store clerk.

How nice it was that they were able to eave the new bags for other customers they knew well and earnsales from Sarah.

With a warm voice, she quickly invited the two of them to the parlor of the boutique.

"The new products are all here.You can tell me which one you like, Miss"

Melody sat on the sofa and pretended to sleep as soon as she entered the door.

Sarah didn't pay her any mind and was focused on picking clothes for her.She now had the chance toshow off her sister's beauty.

Sarah rummaged through racks of clothes one after another, but she couldn't choose any of them atall.She thought that Melody would still look good in any of them.But she also felt like these clothesweren't a suitable match for Melody.

Numerous conflicting and complicated feelings crossed Sarah's thoughts brought by the suddendilemma she faced.

"Miss Sarah, we still have a batch of new first-tier products.Do you want to take a look?"

The store clerk beside her was kind enough to suggest with a smile after she observed Sarah's silentbreakdown.

First-tier meant it was expensive.

Sarah was aware of this fact.

However, she was more than determined to buy gorgeous clothes for Melody today, so spending moremoney was not a problem.

"Sure! Show them to me!"
