Chapter 120 Scarlett Was Shy
It looked exactly like the real one and functioned the same way.
If one only look at the appearance, it was really hard to tell the difference between real and fake. Yet, the artificial always remained artificial in the end; no matter how realistic it looked, Kevin still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Now that he was rich, he decided to buy a real one.
He had 2.8 million dollars now.
Buying a watch that cost tens of thousands of dollars should be no problem, right? Kevin excitedly browses through the various watch brands.
The comments below either show off wealth or say they were living the high life, daring to download such an app.
Rolex, Omega, Seiko, IWC.
Looking around, as long as the watch looks good, none were priced below $50,000.
As for Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, with his money, he could probably only buy two or three watches, and if he bought a limited edition, it might not be enough.
They said once and for all, so he decided to choose a Rolex. The Rolex Submariner, also known as the ‘Hulk,’ had always been a watch that Kevin had dreamed of.
After checking the local Harborview Metropolis store, Kevin found out that the Hulk was temporarily out of stock.
There were some in the second-hand market, priced at $140,000, twice as expensive as the official website.
After pondering for a while, Kevin could only give up and set his sights on another watch.
The rose gold version was $140,000, while the stainless steel version was $77,000.
The price difference was huge.
After much consideration, Kevin finally decided to go for the expensive $140,000 watch.
Men should treat themselves well sometimes. Women could spend tens of thousands dollars on a necklace, why couldn’t men have a high-quality luxury watch?
He thought, ‘Forget it. Now that I have a fair amount of wealth, a bit of luxury won't hurt! Just buy it! The Seiko store at Harborview Metropolis is conveniently close by, and this model is an entry-level Seiko, available at almost all stores.’
After making the decision, Kevin finally laid back on the sofa, content, and drifted off to sleep.
A quiet night passed.
Waking up to the harsh sunlight in the living room, Kevin rubbed his eyes groggily and glanced at his phone.
It was 7:25 a.m.
Time was ticking, and Kevin had plans for the day: buying a watch, visiting the car dealership, and preparing for his mother-in-law's birthday celebration. He had even arranged for his mother-in-law, Lillian, to take the day off specifically for this occasion; he couldn't keep her waiting for long.
Kevin took a deep breath and quickly got up from the sofa.
At the same time, Scarlett and Hazel, who were sleeping soundly, also woke up.
The two best friends got up from bed, yawned in sync, exchanged a meaningful glance, and quickly avoided each other's gaze with a guilty conscience.
"Hazel, did you sleep well last night?" Scarlett asked tentatively, a little nervous, stealing a glance at Hazel.
Hazel, who was originally afraid that Scarlett might suspect her behavior last night, didn't expect Scarlett's first words to be probing her. Knowing Scarlett very well, Hazel immediately understood Scarlett's current thoughts and quickly smiled naturally, yawning and stretching her arms, saying, "I slept even better than at home. I really want to cuddle with you every night. It's just that your husband might not want to let go."
Hazel's performance was so natural that Scarlett secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why am I not wearing any clothes? It's so embarrassing." Hazel touched her exposed chest and saw Scarlett also naked; she immediately jokingly hugged Scarlett and teased, "You naughty girl, did you mistake me for your husband last night and strip me?"
Scarlett thought, ‘It was clearly you.’
Scarlett was speechless in her heart but immediately covered up. "No way, it is you; last night, you drank too much and even hugged me, saying you wanted a hug."
"No way! I don't remember. It seems like I really drank too much last night." Hazel sneaked a glance at Scarlett, cunningly smiling.
"I also drank too much last night. Slept very deeply." Scarlett immediately nodded nervously.
Both of them harbored their own secrets, probing each other in conversation, and finally, they both relaxed.
However, the passion and debauchery of last night lingered like a curse in their minds; whenever they saw each other, they would inevitably think of the craziness of last night and feel a sense of shame and guilt.
Meanwhile, Kevin, who was washing up, was staring at himself in the mirror.
The debauchery of last night, which Kevin kept reminiscing about, also made him feel scared and worried in his heart.
Even Kevin felt a bit hesitant to face his wife Scarlett and even Hazel, with whom he had an affair last night, Kevin also felt a bit hesitant to face.
Now, Kevin just wanted to wash up quickly and sneak out of the house as soon as possible. He didn’t want to face Hazel and Scarlett.
Unfortunately, what he worried about came to him.
Just as Kevin finished washing up and was about to leave the bathroom, the bedroom door also opened.
