Chapter 25 The sales assistant leaned in and whispered in Laura's ear , " Look . Your brother is staring at you in astonishment . Lala , you're very beautiful . " Laura's heart skipped a beat , and she asked uncertainly , " Jasper , do I look pretty ? " Jasper suddenly came back to his senses . He swallowed hard and said , " You look more human now . " The sales assistants exchanged teasing glances , conveying everything without speaking . He had a strong ego after all . Laura walked up to him nervously , " Thank you for buying me the clothes , Jasper . I really like it . " Jasper cleared his throat as the tips of his ears turned red . " Well , I don't care whether you like it or not . " He got up arrogantly and cast a sidelong glance at her . " We'll go check out other stores . I'll make the payment now . Deliver everything to the address I gave you ." The sales assistant smiled and nodded . " Okay , Mr. Smith . " Jasper proceeded to the counter with his card , spending a total of 52,000 dollars . Laura looked utterly bewildered . She thought to herself , " 52,000 dollars , how much money is that ? Why is it that ever since I came here , I only heard thousands of dollars instead of tens of dollars , hundreds of dollars , and several dollars ? " They walked out of the store together . The onlookers ' attention immediately focused on the two of them . " My goodness , look at that adorable siblings ! " Another passerby added , " Wow , the little boy is so handsome , and the little girl is so exquisite . Her outfit is really nice ! It's so fashionable ! " The atmosphere was even more exaggerated than the compliments just now . Laura's cheeks heated up , and she bashfully lowered her head . What caught her gaze were clothes without a trace of dirt , and there was a subtle fragrance of new clothing . This was her favorite aroma . So far , she had only smelled it once . Today was the second time , and it was because of Jasper. She glanced at Jasper gratefully and reached out to hold his hand . Jasper's stride paused and looked at her in surprise . Laura didn't feel that it was inappropriate . She just gazed around while holding his hand . His heart unknowingly skipped a few beats . He hesitated as he withdrew his hand , but he instinctively enclosed her small hand in his . Laura didn't find it odd . She reflexively held his fingers tightly . 1/2 17:05 Mon , 11 Aug S Chapter 25 Jasper suddenly felt a surge of warmth in his heart . In fact , this warmth even curved his lips into a smile . When the two siblings walked slowly in this manner , a sense of indescribable tranquility enveloped them slowly . Laura sneakily glanced at Jasper's profile . This was the first time going shopping with her family without getting scolded . She felt exceptionally happy , and she stole another look at Jasper , Jasper caught her gaze and turned toward her , asking , " What are you looking at ? " Laura choked up and quickly withdrew her eyes . She muttered , " I just feel really happy when I'm out with you . Thank you , Jasper . When you protected me just now , you truly seemed like a prince . " She looked at him earnestly . " I like you , Jasper ." Jasper's face suddenly changed , and it instantly turned red . " D - Don't try to butter me up . I don't fall for any flattery . " After saying that , he took a deep breath and led her into a cell phone store . " I'd like to buy a phone . " The shop assistant sized up his appearance and smiled . " The latest model , iPhone 14 Pro Max . Would you like to take a look ? " Jasper glanced at Laura's little hand , figuring she likely couldn't even hold it properly . " She's not up to that level ! " The shop assistant's mouth twitched . " Then what kind of model are you looking for ? " Jasper's eyes casually scanned the store . " Just an iPhone 14 will do . " The shop assistant was speechless . He exclaimed inwardly , " Is the iPhone 14 bad ? Hello , where are your manners ? I really don't understand the world of rich people ! " 2/2
