Chapter 579: These Two People Look Like Stars
Such a good job cannot be let go!
First, she needs to do this job well, and then she can open a beauty and wellness center or a jewelry company.
Oh, it seems like she will be very busy in the future!
"Ivy, you don't want to go to work, do you?" Alexander squinted his sharp eyes.
As the head of the Ashford family conglomerate, can't he support his wife and children? Does he need his wife to earn money?
Ivy knew that Alexander would think this way, so she deliberately changed the subject.
"Ah... go to sleep, I'm going shopping with Bluey tomorrow, and I need to buy a watch and clothes. You should also go to bed early and get some rest. Tomorrow, take good care of the kids for me!"
The next morning.
Ivy woke up early and quietly woke up Bluey and Florence while Alexander was still sleeping.
After quickly washing up, the three of them left the Ashford family.
Once they were in the car, Ivy sent a message to Alexander.
"Alexander, Bluey, Florence, and I are going to have breakfast tea, then buy watches, go shopping, and visit Bluey's adoptive parents. We won't be back until tonight. Take good care of the children, okay?"
Bluey was a bit confused. "Sister, why do we have to sneak away? Are you worried that brother-in-law will follow us? Don't you want to bring him along?"
"Oh, he needs to take care of the children at home!" Ivy replied.
"Does he really need to take care of the children?" Florence blurted out. "Your family has so many bodyguards and household staff!"
"Hehe!" Ivy laughed politely but awkwardly, her face slightly blushing.
Bluey suddenly realized, "I know, sister, you must be trying to do something behind brother-in-law's back!"
"What kind of talk is that? Someone who doesn't know might think I'm having an affair!" Ivy cried, unable to laugh or cry.
Worried that the driver might hear, Ivy leaned in closer to the two and whispered, "Alexander doesn't want me to work, but I've already signed a work contract. I have to report in today no matter what. Can you both cover for me?"
Bluey and Florence immediately agreed, but they insisted on coming along. They were very curious to find out what kind of job Ivy was secretly going to.
After breakfast tea, Ivy took Bluey to buy a watch.
The highest-level watch shop in Aucaster.
The three of them headed straight to the luxury section as soon as they entered, and found the latest Queen's watches. When they saw the price tag, it was indeed 99.99 million.
Crazy expensive!
Ivy didn't plan on buying two watches anymore, as she wanted to save some money.
She only asked the staff to bring out one and let Bluey try it on.
While Bluey was trying on the watch, the employees whispered to each other.
"These two people look like the stars in that movie 'Snake's Love.' What was that star's name again?"
"Who cares what her name is? She's just a minor internet celebrity. Let me tell you, a newly emerged internet celebrity definitely can't afford a 99.99 million watch. Don't expect a sale, just treat it as a spectacle!"
"Yeah, it can only be treated as a spectacle. You think they're really internet celebrities? They just happen to look like them. Nowadays, women just get plastic surgery to look like stars if they have some money. I hear that many people even get loans to get plastic surgery. These two might be the result of plastic surgery too!"
"You're right. Real internet celebrity stars are busy shooting on set at this time. How could they have time to come and buy watches?"
"Even if they did come to buy watches, there's no way a group of two or three girls would come together. It must be some rich sugar daddy buying for them. Have you ever seen a woman spending her own money on such an expensive watch?"
"That makes sense..."
Several employees were discussing in a corner, their voices not loud enough for Bluey and Florence to hear. But Ivy had the Magic Pearl with her.
You have an extraordinary sense of perception, naturally able to hear things clearly.
Upon hearing such comments, my eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
As it turns out, even the most high-end shops have employees who gossip.
I silently swore that when I start my own business, I must pay extra attention when hiring employees and absolutely not hire those with bad conduct.
"Sis, why don't you try it?" Bluey pointed to the watch on her wrist and pouted, saying, "Is it because you think this watch is too expensive and can't bear to buy two? If you don't buy it, I won't buy it either. Besides, I don't usually wear a watch!"
Ivy indulgently replied, "It is indeed a bit expensive, but sis and brother-in-law can afford it. It's just that sis already has a watch at home, so let's buy a new one when that one breaks!"
"But it feels too... extravagant for me to wear such an expensive watch alone..."
Bluey always felt something was off, so she took off the watch and decisively said, "Sis, I won't buy it. After all, I have a cellphone and don't need to wear a watch!"
Upon hearing this, the receptionist's face immediately darkened.
The receptionist attending to Ivy and Bluey was a heavily made-up, long-haired female employee who had originally assumed that both Ivy and Bluey were going to buy a watch, eagerly approaching them for service.
Now that she heard they were both not buying, her frustration instantly ignited.
She immediately abandoned Ivy and Bluey and went to the other employees, murmuring, "If you can't afford it, just say so. Why pretend otherwise? One says she has a watch at home, the other says she has a cellphone... Huh, since they're not buying a watch, why come here to try them on?"
