Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate

Chapter 1007: Chapter 1007: Discussing a Question

Shopping isn’t just about walking around, it’s also about going into malls to pick things.

It’s truly the first time she’s noticed that even the same clothes have different stripe widths and subtle color variations... She, she, she... decided to go get a pair of glasses.

This really tests your observational skills, doesn’t it?

"It’s not that bad." Lucy Wells said with a sweet, blissful smile on her face, "There’s a lot to prepare for an engagement." ƒгeewёbnovel.com

What could Sophie Wilson say?

Her good friend is getting engaged to her cousin, so of course, she, as both a cousin and friend, needs to accompany her the entire time.

"I didn’t realize engagements were so troublesome." Sophie Wilson suddenly felt sympathy for Charles Seymour, who had prepared their engagement ceremony before. It really wasn’t easy.

"I’ll choose one more lipstick, then we’ll go upstairs for dinner." Lucy Wells said considerately, "You can wait for me here."

Not far away is the cosmetics counter, and Lucy Wells ran over to pick out a lipstick while Sophie Wilson stayed to watch their things.

She made a phone call to Charles Seymour to express her gratitude, not realizing that preparing these things was so tiring and complicated.

She was just accompanying Lucy Wells for some shopping and hadn’t participated in the actual preparations.

"Darling, you must have been exhausted!" As soon as the call connected, Sophie Wilson’s seemingly random words made Charles Seymour pause, puzzled, "What?"

"Back when you prepared our engagement, it must have been so draining. I’m just shopping with Lucy and can barely handle it. How did you manage to prepare everything in such detail?" Sophie Wilson asked, reflecting.

"Our engagement is a matter for both of us, how could I feel tired?" Charles Seymour’s voice carried a doting laugh, "If you’re tired of shopping, I can come pick you up."

Charles Seymour’s image instantly grew taller in Sophie Wilson’s eyes: "No need, you don’t have to come. I’m with Lucy, I’m fine, just feeling spoiled and reflecting on how difficult it was for you back then, darling, mwah, love you."

"Mm, I love you too." Charles Seymour finished the sweet talk with Sophie Wilson, hung up the phone, and looked at Jim Perry, who had said he would leave after finishing work but hadn’t yet left, puzzled and asked, "Anything else?"

"Not work-related." Jim Perry said, "But... boss, I’d like to discuss a matter with you."

"Mm, go ahead." Fresh off his call with Sophie Wilson, Charles Seymour was quite agreeable, his mood buoyant.

"Wasn’t it me who closely oversaw the completion of your engagement arrangements back then?" Jim Perry asked, feeling like he’s not old enough for memory lapse at the prime of his life.

Charles Seymour listened to Jim Perry and looked at him calmly, his inky black eyes silently questioning—so what?

"Isn’t it inappropriate to take credit in front of your partner at the expense of your subordinates? It’s better to be honest, I think." Jim Perry forced a smile, kindly advising his boss who seemed to be ’straying.’

"Weren’t you doing what I instructed?" Charles Seymour asked indifferently.

"Yes, but..."

"Weren’t the problems found by me during checks?" Charles Seymour continued asking, completely ignoring Jim Perry’s replies.

"Boss, you weren’t checking, you were nit-picking, looking for flaws where there are none." Jim Perry laughed.
