Chapter 39 - 39: Did I Misunderstand Myself as a Flash of Lightning?
That woman was just asking for trouble. Yigol had already grabbed her, but she insisted on giving him a hard time over a few strands of hair.
Suri Drew was going up the stairs, and that woman just had to burst out. If they really wanted to assign blame, it would fall on that woman. Elevator and stairs were not in the same direction. If she wanted to take the elevator, she should have gone somewhere else.
If it hadn’t been for Yigol holding her, she would have fallen long ago.
And she still dared to give Yigol trouble?
She really didn’t know how to be grateful. He wasn’t the kind of person to repay evil with kindness. Since that woman didn’t appreciate his help, he wouldn’t be overly sympathetic.
What he cared about was Suri Drew. As long as she wasn’t hurt, everything was fine.
Suri’s thoughts were the same as Yigol’s. It was just that the woman suddenly rushed out, and Suri happened to be climbing the stairs at a fast pace, which caused the collision.
But Suri was going in the right direction, and that woman shouldn’t have been at the staircase entrance.
That woman should have been grateful, but she wanted to blame Yigol, which was really too much.
Sana Woods, who caught up later, confirmed that Suri was fine. She came up to them, looking left and right with a meaningful glance.
“Hehe…”
Yigol and Suri quickly let go of each other, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward.
Sana Woods stepped forward, pulled their hands together, and placed them back together.
“You…” Yigol looked at Sana puzzled.
Suri also hurriedly said, “Sana, don’t misunderstand, your brother just saw me fall, so he…”
“I didn’t misunderstand.” Sana replied.
“No, no, no, I think I misunderstood. I mistook myself for a lightning bolt, and somehow split your hands apart, so I quickly put them back together.” Sana said seriously.
Yigol and Suri looked at each other but didn’t speak.
What could they say now?
Any explanation would be superfluous.
“You two better hold on tight this time.” Sana glanced at their hands joined together, but they were too embarrassed to hold on.
Yigol and Suri were once again at a loss for words.
The two were already at their wits’ end, but Sana didn’t seem to be finished yet. She continued, “Don’t worry, you guys can go ahead and enjoy yourselves. My single-dog self-control is pretty good.”
“Cough, cough, cough…” Yigol pretended to cough a few times, and held Suri’s hand.
With things having progressed so far, hiding this from Sana would be impossible. Naturally, he had to take the initiative. After all, how could Suri, a girl, be the proactive one?
Although they were in a legitimate relationship, it was their first time being so intimate. Yigol felt his heart race faster than ever.
“Right, just pretend I’m not here.” Sana nodded in satisfaction, taking the lead.
Thinking of how sweet the couple was behind her, Sana truly felt bitter.
It was mainly because Yigol and Suri were too sweet, and she was looking forward to love at this time in her life.
“Let’s go.” Yigol said to Suri.
Now that Sana had figured it out, it was a good opportunity to get closer to Suri.
It was also an opportunity.
Suri’s hand was suddenly taken by Yigol, and her heart skipped a beat.
She had been mentally prepared, but when the day finally came, the impact was still immense.
Was this the feeling of falling in love?
She liked the feeling of Yigol holding her hand.
She looked at their hands locked together and held Yigol’s hand back.
Yigol felt it and gave her a warm, tender look.
Suri shyly lowered her head.
They had to hide their relationship from Sana out of necessity. They didn’t want their family to know, lest they couldn’t understand their relationship.
However, now they could openly express their love.
Not to mention, Sana accidentally became the facilitator of their relationship.
As they walked, Sana sneakily moved behind them, took out her phone, and snapped a few pictures and videos.
She naturally had to capture such sweet moments and use them to tell her family later, depending on how far their relationship had progressed.
If Yigol and Suri had been upfront from the start, she would have posted it immediately.
Seeing them skulking around, Sana decided to check things out before sending it.
If Yigol turned out to be just a delivery guy, she would have to inform her aunt first, no matter what.
But the situation was different from what she had thought. Now, Yigol was a wealthy man. He hadn’t told his family about his wealth or his relationship, which meant that there must be some hesitation.
Indeed, she had just arrived and was still a young girl. Her ability to withstand shock was considerable, but even after learning how outstanding Yigol was, she still hadn’t recovered.
If her family knew about it, wouldn’t their reactions be more dramatic?
As her aunt kept asking, Sana didn’t know what to say.
If she mentioned it, what if it upset Yigol?
Although Sana was just a child, she couldn’t figure out Yigol and Suri’s thoughts.
Nevertheless, judging by their reactions, they were definitely a couple.
They arrived at the entrance of an Earl Store.
Yigol was familiar with the Earl brand. Their watches were quite pleasing to the eye and suited Yigol’s taste.
Upon seeing the store, he pulled Suri inside.
As soon as the clerk saw them, she immediately greeted them.
“Sir, Miss, do you have any preferred styles?” The clerk was very polite. This was a brand-name store after all, offering superb service.
“Can we customize one?” Yigol asked.
“Sir, you can, but customers need to go to the headquarters for customization. Also, the price for customization starts at 400 ,ooo dollars.” The clerk replied politely.
Yigol asked in a deep voice, “Do we have to go there ourselves?”
The clerk hesitated for a moment. Many customers inquired about custom styles, but most backed off after hearing the price.
As for going there in person, it was actually a tactic to avoid unnecessary entanglements and wasting their time.
Seeing that Yigol was asking about something other than the price, the clerk suddenly realized that this might be a big customer.
“Hm?” Seeing that the clerk had not answered after a while, Yigol inquired doubtfully.
The clerk noticed Yigol’s displeasure, and in an instant, she understood.
Wealthy people bought things for happiness.
Even if they liked something, to have them go through the trouble of customizing it personally would never happen..
