The children's clothing store grew increasingly crowded, and many people pretended to browse clothes while secretly eavesdropping on the conversation. In the midst of it all, people took out their phones to take pictures.

Rain's face turned red, and she wanted to deny it, but Lilly looked at her with an innocent and sincere gaze.

"I didn't lie... and I won't deny it..." Rain stammered, "I really wanted someone to help me remove the tag from my clothes..."

Lilly was even more confused. "But why do you need someone else to help? Couldn't you have just entered the fitting room and taken off the clothes yourself?" Rain was speechless.

Damian smiled bitterly, "I couldn't believe it when Mr. MacNeil and Mr. Show showed me the screenshots of you flirting with them..."

"You were in lingerie and chatting with my two superiors late at night? Huh...?"

"You even shared photos! And you said you enjoyed being surrounded by multiple men!"

As Damian spoke, his anger grew.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Rain's anger flared up, and she slapped Damian across the face!

"Slap!"

The slap left Damian stunned, and Lilly was equally shocked.

Rain yelled angrily, "Damian Gray! Are you even a man?!"

Damian also roared furiously, "Am I not a man? Should I just accept the fact that you're cheating on me and continue to coax you without confronting you about it, to be considered a man? How dare you deny calling my superiors late at night, sharing videos, posting photos, and engaging in explicit conversations! Do you want me to show you the evidence?"

A commotion erupted around them, and everyone looked at Rain.

Rain blushed, desperately wanting to deny it, but when she caught sight of Blake leaning to the side with folded arms, his face turned cold and had no expression. He absentmindedly typed on his mobile phone. The intensity of his presence was terrifying as if any lie she told would be projected on a big screen in the next moment, amplifying the consequences.

Rain blushed and exclaimed with anger, "Yes, I did say it, but I was just joking! I didn't actually do it!"

"I treat them as friends, so I casually chatted, joked, and made those comments! I never intended to act upon them!"

However, they exposed things she had not done in front of everyone. Wasn't that making her look bad?

While she may have been foolish, weren't they just as bad? They shared stories of her posting videos and photos in public, and their actions were even worse than her words! Damian laughed indignantly, "Do you treat my leader your friend? You added my leader as a friend, but you've only known them for five minutes, and yet you speak to them like this?"

With reddened eyes, Rain clenched their teeth and demanded, "Apologize to me!"

Damian was completely taken aback, "You expect me to apologize when you were the one in the wrong?"

Rain spoke up, "Yes! I may have been foolish, but you exposed my private affairs to the public, turning me into a laughingstock! That's worse than my foolish behavior. You are not being fair! Apologize to me today, and we can put this behind us. We'll go our separate ways, and I won't hold it against you, nor will you owe me anything in the future!"

Everyone was astonished.

What kind of distorted values and illogical reasoning was this?

Being unfaithful to her boyfriend, flirting with her boyfriend's boss in the middle of the night.

They shared photos and videos and said things that disrupted common decency.

Now, she had turned around and demanded an apology from her boyfriend, simply because he told her what she did in public...

Lilly could not help but express her suspicion. "Is this lady in the right?" Lilly asked, her voice filled with doubt.

Blake replied, "No, she's wrong."

"When her scandal was exposed, she retaliated and demanded apologies from others. By claiming the moral high ground, she revealed her guilty conscience. It's called saving face. Have you heard of it?" Lilly suddenly had a realization, exclaiming, "I have! I'll tell Grandma that I've learned another phrase when I get back!"

Blake coughed, feeling less amused by the situation.

Observing the silence from others, Rain felt deeply disappointed. "Men, always bully women. Is that all you're capable of? Acting politely to outsiders while attacking your own girlfriend like a thunderbolt." "Men make more mistakes. When a man cheats, it's considered to join the ranks of all men in the world. But when a woman makes a mistake, she's labeled unfaithful and trash."

What's wrong with women being romantic and happy?

Of course, Rain didn't dare utter these words aloud.

"I merely spoke inappropriately, I was just joking, and didn't do anything. You're still my boyfriend, so it's fine if you don't believe me, but publicly defaming me is uncalled for."

"Damian Gray, I see right through you! You despicable man!"

Rain stormed back to the fitting room to change her clothes. When she emerged, she bumped into Damian with bitterness, making sure to take the items Damian had bought for her before leaving with her hands full.

Damian stood there motionless, a blank expression on his face.

Lilly asked, "Daddy, what idiom did she use just now?"

Blake responded calmly, "That's called hitting...you'll understand when you grow up."

Men and women were inherently two genders with contrasting characteristics, destined to have different ways of thinking, behaviors, and language.

However, those who exploit the differences between men and women to provoke conflicts had ill intentions.

Cheating was wrong, whether it's done by men or women. There were despicable individuals among both genders.

Yet, Rain's words about carried such conviction...

"Let's go," said Blake as he lifted Lilly in his arms and walked away.

"Oh, yeah," Blake turned his head. "Would you like to take a few more days off?"

Damian shook his head. "No, it's not necessary."

"I want to work overtime."

Blake contemplated for a moment. "Hmm... Alright. I'll call you tonight."

Eventually, they left.

Damian lowered his head and left on his own.

It was now time for Lilly's shopping spree!

They entered a store, and Lilly joyfully tried on clothes.

Finally, she chose a princess dress. "Uncle Anthony, Can I have this?"

Anthony nodded and proceeded to the cashier. "I'll buy everything she tried on." Lilly was astonished.

Blake raised an eyebrow. "Can you pay for everything I've tried on as well?." Anthony's mouth twitched. "What else would you like to try?"

Blake took it for granted. "Matching outfits! The two T-shirts I tried on earlier." Anthony was speechless.
