Vivian asked again and again, but Zoey, the wicked girl, refused to say anything, which made her very angry.

Haha, of course, she had her plans. But it's not interesting to say it in advance.

She comforted her best friend, and the two happily shopped in the afternoon. They bought clothes for the man and the boy at home and returned with a fruitful trip.

She felt a bit regretful when she returned.

"Why didn't we meet those scumbags today? Otherwise, we could use their money once again."

Vivian rolled her eyes. "You're good at taking advantage of them."

At that time, Howard must have spent a lot of money. Otherwise, why didn't they show up?

Zoey did not care about that. The more unlucky they were, the happier she was. In addition, she was even more excited when she implemented her plan successfully.

She returned home with many bags and handed the things to the servants. Just as she was about to ask them if Wyatt had returned home, she heard the phone ring.

Her eyes lit up.

Was it Wyatt?

She picked it up without thinking, but the voice from the phone immediately made her face change.

"Zoey, it's me."

"Oh, it's you." There was an indescribable disappointment in her tone.

"Zoey, you have changed."

The person on the phone was Howard. She had just spoken to Vivian about the scumbag before he called. Perhaps God also thought that he was a jerk?

"I have changed? No, I am still the same." She wanted to hang up. But she could not. She had not completed her plan yet.

"You have changed. In the past, you would not speak to me in such a tone." His tone was in an unspeakable grievance.

"Really?" She felt that she might have gone a little overboard. It was unwise to let Howard notice her attitude. She forced herself to ask in a gentle tone, "What's wrong with you? I think you are in a bad mood."

Her gentle tone made her feel disgusted. She secretly made a vomiting expression. Anyway, he couldn't see her.

But, unexpectedly, the person on the stairs was about to talk to her. He stopped after hearing the sound and did not speak.

She turned back to the stairs and did not notice the person behind her.

"Is that so? It's not bad. Oh, what do you think of the jewelry I gave you? Do you like it?" Howard asked her in a gentle tone.

"Well, it's pretty good. But I think the color of the gemstone is still a bit poor. I saw a bigger one today. How about we take a look next time?" She deliberately asked even more harshly.

Haha, she knew he was distressed, but it didn't matter. Anyway, if he felt sorry, she would be happy!

Howard's lips twitched. He had already regretted buying a six-digit worth of jewelry for her last time. Now that he heard she still wanted a better one, how could he continue?

He quickly changed the topic. "Well, let's talk about it when we have the chance to go shopping together in the future. By the way, how is the thing I told you last time?"

"Ah?" She asked, her voice soft and a little flustered and nervous. "What's the matter?"

Howard felt a little angry. "It's the international cooperation program of the Windsor’s I've mentioned. You said you would help me last time. Have you forgotten?"

"Ah?" She seemed shocked and said lamely, "I, I didn't forget it, but I don't have a chance now. Really."

When Howard heard this, his tone softened. "Is that so? Then I misunderstood you."
