Mr. Law's Official Announcement: He is a Wife-Doting Fanatic!

”Young lady, these are condoms, not gummies.”

The shop assistant’s words immediately drew more eyes in their direction.

People looked at Cecilia Vaughn with strange expressions, and some men even stared at her with lewd eyes, as if she were a piece of meat waiting to be devoured.

...

Cecilia Vaughn’s face turned red, and she felt as if the item in her hand weighed a thousand pounds.

She couldn’t throw it away, yet there was a line of people blocking her from putting it back. How could she even do it without feeling ashamed?

The little hot item had red and green prints on it, and the most prominent was the word ”Cherry Flavor,” placed right next to a row of chewing gum. No wonder Cecilia mistook it!

How was she supposed to know this neatly packaged box served such a purpose?

...

Adrian Law saw his wife’s embarrassed look and gave a light cough.

”Cecilia, this model isn’t quite suitable. If you’re going to buy, it should be the largest size.”

The man spoke about an adult topic with a straight face, then took the small box from Cecilia’s hand and returned it to its place.

Many people around were secretly observing them, and now hearing Adrian’s words, a hint of ambiguity appeared in their eyes.

Cecilia even heard young girls next to her discussing with blushing faces.

”That girl is so lucky, her husband is so handsome and he is quite capable in that area too.”

”Yeah, I’m so envious.”

”But she’s really good-looking herself. Two beautiful people, like a perfect couple, they match so well.”

...

Hearing people talk about her and Adrian’s married life embarrassed Cecilia even more, and she quickly lowered her head like an ostrich, pulling Adrian along briskly.

Finally leaving the supermarket, away from the previous topic of conversation, Cecilia patted her chest with lingering fear.

The girl glared at Adrian angrily.

”Adrian, you did this on purpose, didn’t you? You’re tall enough to see what that box was for clearly, right?”

”Why didn’t you warn me before?”

The man’s lips curled with a playful smile.

”My dear wife, how would I know what you intended to buy it for?”

”If it were a gift for me, I could also reluctantly accept it.”

”...”

Cecilia really had no way to deal with Adrian. How can this man talk about such things so openly?

She was utterly defeated!

...

Tomorrow is Felix Lockwood’s celebration.

In truth, the only time Cecilia saw Felix was when she went to Prescott Hospital for her brother’s check-up.

Adrian Law had few close friends, only two he genuinely confided in: one being Zion Prescott and the other Felix Lockwood.

Cecilia had a good impression of Doctor Prescott, as for Felix... she concluded from her brief encounter at the hospital that he was a playboy, the unreliable kind.

She couldn’t understand why someone as reserved as Adrian would be friends with him.

...

No matter what, attending a gathering for Adrian’s friend gave Cecilia the nervous feeling of a daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws, afraid of making a wrong impression.

”Adrian, what does Felix like?”

The man casually said, holding her hand with a serene smile.

”Luxury cars, watches, beautiful women.”

”...”

Three lines of black sweat crossed Cecilia’s forehead; indeed a playboy’s essentials, her judgment was spot on!

...

Luxury cars and beautiful women were not options for Cecilia, and since she recently came into a windfall thanks to Eldest Miss Alden, she might as well buy Felix a luxury watch—it’s respectable.

”Adrian, let’s look at the watch counter, then. By the way, which brand does he prefer: Patek Philippe or Vacheron Constantin?”

Adrian gently tapped Cecilia’s nose.

”Silly goose, even if you don’t get him anything, he would still come to greet us obediently.”

”That’s true, but didn’t Doctor Prescott say that Felix managed to land such a big deal for the first time, and considering the complicated Lockwood Family with so many illegitimate children, you need to support him?”

Adrian was a bit surprised when he heard this, not expecting his little wife to remember the conversation between him and Zion Prescott so precisely.

”Cecilia, so you care about me this much.”

Cecilia chuckled.

”You’re my husband, who else would I care about if not you?”

Upon hearing this term, Adrian felt his heart being warmly soothed, his eyes gently curved with a faint smile.

”Alright, let’s go buy a watch for Felix.”

...

The two held hands, garnering numerous glances as they made their way to the watch counter, spreading their sweet affection openly.

This upscale department store caught Cecilia’s eye with a new Patek Philippe men’s watch featuring ginkgo leaf elements, the newest model, not too expensive compared to others in its label, about half a million.

Though Cecilia felt a sting thinking about the cost, considering Adrian’s worth, it wouldn’t be right to give his friend something too modest.

Moreover, Cecilia thought that this flashy gold suited Felix, the flamboyant type.

At that moment, Felix unexpectedly sneezed, strange, who was thinking about him?

...

Cecilia pointed at the ginkgo-themed men’s watch inside and smiled warmly at the salesperson.

”Could you please take this out for a closer look?”

”Certainly, Miss, you have a great eye; this is our Patek Philippe counter’s most sought-after new item.”

...

Just as Cecilia was about to view it closely, Chloe Alden suddenly stormed over, followed by a sunglasses-wearing Fiona Vaughn.

”...”

What a small world; having encountered them at the bridal shop earlier today, now running into them again at this department store!

...

Fiona Vaughn had a gentle grace, nodding slightly towards Adrian with a demeanor befitting a lady.

”Sister, such a coincidence. I didn’t get to ask last time, what is this gentleman’s surname?”

Chloe Alden, feeling indignant, glanced coldly at the limited men’s watch in Cecilia’s hand, lifting her chin high.

”Hmph, some people really don’t know when to quit. First, they tailed us at the bridal shop this afternoon, and now they follow us to the watch counter?”

”Cecilia Vaughn, did you come here just because you heard Fiona was buying a watch for her fiancé as a gift?”

Leaning against Adrian, Cecilia found it amusing.

”Eldest Miss Alden, do your family know how severe your persecution paranoia is?”

”You—”

...

Cecilia had no interest in wasting words with such people, she nodded towards the sales clerk directly.

”I’ll take this one, please charge it to my card.”

Seeing Cecilia so swiftly make the purchase, Chloe naturally knew that the money was all coming from the Alden Family!

She angrily swept her gaze over Adrian’s indifferent face, feeling both love and hate in her heart.

In the end, she mocked with a sarcastic tone.

”This is the first time I’ve seen a man letting a woman pay, isn’t it inappropriate, sir, to be such a mooch?”
