“I believe he won’t lie to me,” Helene said.
Hearing this, Carlisle and Miki were stunned.
Miki was surprised that a woman was not interested in her husband’s private money.
What surprised Carlisle was that Helene believed him, which made him somewhat guilty.
Miki wanted to say something more, but after much deliberation, she decided not to do it. If she pissed Mr. Bamford off, she would be sorry.
So before arriving at the destination, Miki got out of the car. Before she left, she took the initiative to ask for Helene’s WhatsApp account, saying that they should keep in touch in the future.
As soon as Miki exited the car, Carlisle received a WhatsApp message, “Your wife is lovely, but she is a bit rusty. She is not good enough for you.”
Carlisle deleted the message after reading it. Then he took Helene directly to a mall.
Helene thought Carlisle would buy clothes himself, but he wanted to buy clothes for her and took her directly to the clothing stores of internationally famous brands. Every piece of clothing in these stores cost tens of thousands.

Helene was terrified and pulled him away.
“The clothes here are too expensive. One piece is more expensive than my monthly salary.”

Carlisle disagreed and casually asked Helene to try on clothes one after another. Ultimately, the shop assistant got
impatient, “Are you going to buy it or not?”
Carlisle wanted to buy them all. But considering that he could not reveal his identity, he could only choose a suit jacket that he thought was most suitable for Helene, “Just this one.”
Helene picked up the price tag and took a look. Eighteen thousand?
It was her two months’ wages.
She dragged Carlisle aside, “I didn’t bring my bank card today. Let’s have lunch. I’m hungry.”
“Let’s have lunch after shopping.” Carlisle took out his bank card and said, “Use my card.”
“It’s too expensive. It costs you more than half a month’s salary.”
“Well, there’s still half a month’s salary left.” Carlisle looked
careless.
“But this month just started.” Helene was very frantic.
He had a salary of 30,000 a month. If they bought the clothes, there would be 12,000 left. After deducting the 9,000 for Matilda, they would only have 3,000 left this month.
Were they going to starve?

“Trust me. I won’t starve you to death.” At Carlisle’s insistence, Helene reluctantly paid.
Carlisle asked Helene to put the suit back on for him to see.
As expected, a piece of eighteen- thousand clothes was different. With its style and texture, Helene immediately changed from an ugly duckling to a white swan when she put it on.
Carlisle nodded in satisfaction.

But Helene was thinking about how to return the suit.
Carlisle seemed to have seen through Helene’s mind. He waved his hand and asked the shop assistant to cut off the price tag.
Helene was so angry that she almost fainted.
Carlisle saw Helene’s pained expression and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, “A woman’s clothes are her man’s pride. I can afford it.”
Hearing this, Helene was stunned.
At the same time, she heard Diego’s voice, “Whatever you wear, it looks the same. Why don’t you save money and buy me some gaming equipment?”
“Three hundred for a piece of clothes? Helene, you’re stingy.”
“What’s wrong with five thousand for a meal? What a man wants is pride.”

“What are you thinking about?” Carlisle shook her hand before Helene’s eyes, “Are you unhappy?”
Helene’s eyes turned red instantly.
“Why are you crying?” Carlisle tapped Helene’s nose.
Helene pushed his hand away, “No. I’m hungry.”

“Well, I’ll go order lunch for you right now. Let’s go home and eat. There are too many people here.”
Carlisle was afraid of meeting acquaintances, and this place was quite close to his company.
So he asked Helene to wait for him in the store and order takeaway.
When Carlisle left, the shop assistant told Helene, “I’ve never seen such a good husband. He didn’t even hesitate when he spent money on you.”
Helene could only smile wryly in her heart. She looked at the expensive clothes in the fitting mirror, thinking about how to live this month.
She had paid her grandma’s surgery fee with all her savings, and now she had no money left.
“Hey, look at the suit. It looks nice.”
“The clothes in that store are costly. Can you afford them?”
“It’s all your fault. You made a mistake, and it cost all my savings. We’re going to starve.”
The sound of quarrels became louder and louder.

At first, Helene didn’t pay attention, but the voices were too familiar to ignore.
Freya walked into the store, pointed to Helene, who was standing with her back to her, and asked, “How much is the suit she’s wearing?”
“Eighteen thousand.” The shop assistant replied.
“It’s so expensive. Is there a discount?”
“The discounted price is 18,000.”
“I told you that you can’t afford it.” Diego pulled Freya and was about to leave.
Freya shook off Diego, “Leave me alone. I can try it on even if I don’t buy it.”
Freya asked the shop assistant to find a new set for her to try.
The shop assistant said that all the clothes in the store were limited edition, with only one piece of each style.
“Well, hasn’t she finished trying yet? I want to try too.” Freya felt that the piece of clothes was so expensive, and no one could afford it, and she guessed this girl was trying it on.
“I’m sorry. That young lady has already paid for it. You can try on other clothes.”
“She had paid?” Freya couldn’t believe it. There were so many rich people. Looking at Helene’s back, she somehow found it very familiar..
At this moment, Helene got a call, and Carlisle asked her to meet him in the parking lot.

Helene was about to leave with her bag.
“Helene!” Freya suddenly stopped her.
Diego thought that Freya had called the wrong person. But when Helene turned around, he was stunned.
Was it the girl he had known? Why was he suddenly amazed?
She looked completely different from the girl who liked wearing cheap clothes.
“It’s you!” Freya was surprised, “Since when did you become so rich? You can buy such expensive clothes?”
“This young lady’s husband bought it for her.” The shop assistant added.
“Are you married?” Diego was extremely shocked.
“How is it possible? Are you stupid or something? It’s only been a few days since you broke up. How could she find a new man so quickly?” Freya didn’t believe that Helene was so famous.
“I’m sorry to disappoint you. I got married the day after we broke up. My husband is also a programmer and treats me very well. As you can see, he didn’t hesitate to buy me expensive clothes.”
Freya was angry and jealous. She could not believe that Helene would be so lucky.
Diego stared at Helene. Such a beautiful and confident Helene reminded him of the scene when the two first met.
Seeing their expressions, Helene felt much better. She finally
