Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1988

When she heard this, she immediately looked at the long-haired sales assistant. "Why does that name sound so familiar?"

"You're so clueless. She's the CEO of X Entertainment, the company that your idol, Josh Batton, is attached to," the other woman said.

She became even more exasperated after hearing this. "What? I can't believe it!

"I've seen Georgie's pictures before, but I couldn't recognize her face," she added, feeling even more remorseful now.

"That's what you get for not spending more time on Weibo. Look at me, I frequently check out stuff on Weibo, and I can remember some of those people."

The sales assistant felt even worse.

Not long after Georgie Clementine had left with her new necklace, Henry Armstrong came up from behind and hugged her.

He followed her along while casually checking out the various brands that he wouldn't buy. "Why didn't you wait for me where we were? I didn't see you when I came out, and I looked for you everywhere." As he spoke, he noticed the bag Georgie was holding.

"What did you buy?" he asked.

"A diamond necklace that cost 200,000," she answered cavalierly.

"That's cheap," he remarked.

Georgie didn't reply. She brought Henry up to the second floor via the elevator.

The second floor was the women's department, separated into two sections. One was for middle-aged women, while the other was for younger women.

Georgie held Henry's hand and browsed at the middle-aged section for a while until finally, she found a few coats for her mother.

Henry paid for everything as long as Georgie liked it.

Just like that, he stayed silently by her side and paid for everything she wanted to buy.

Later, they went upstairs and bought a few other coats for her father.

When they finished, Georgie brought him to a milk tea shop in the mall, ordering a glass of milk tea for her fiance and a glass of fresh orange juice for herself before they sat by the window and started drinking their beverages.

Georgie had been so busy all this while with work. It made her feel happy and at peace to occasionally slow down her pace, do some leisurely shopping, and relax like this. They held each others' hands tightly under the table, looking very cozy.

"How do you feel now? Are you uncomfortable?" Henry asked.

Georgie shook her head. "Not at all. I'm fine."

"That's great, let me know if you feel any discomfort," he told her.

"Okay, but you can't do anything about it even if I told you."

Henry immediately sighed in dismay when he heard this. "That's true. I wish I could experience all the discomforts of being pregnant on your behalf. Georgie, I don't care if our baby turns out to be a boy or a girls We're only going to have one child."

Georgie looked surprised. "Why? I thought wealthy families all wanted a big family?" Wealthy families in Atlantis rarely only had one child per family, as far as she was aware. For them, the more children they had, the better.

"That's what other people may want, but I'm not so particular about this. I don't want you to go through all this discomfort again. I was terrified when I saw you retching the other day," Henry admitted.

"I never thought about it much when I saw other pregnant women going through morning sickness. Who knew it would hurt so much when it happens to my wife?" he added. Georgie immediately felt touched by his concern.

Then, she frowned slightly. "What do we do? I want to have two children."
