Chapter 22

Sage tended to go shopping in the past, but she had never bought this many items,

Did she suffer from some sort of shock or trauma?

Sage smiled as she responded with a question of her own. “Do I not look fine to you?” Tiana nodded immediately. “Yes, you look a little less than fine!”

Now rendered speechless, Sage could only pat Tiana on the shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’m fine. I know what I’m doing.”

By the time the women reached the men’s apparel section, Sage’s arms were already loaded with shopping bags.

Tiana started browsing the display of ties on the racks. “Sage, do you want to pick out a gift for lan as well?”

Sage rejected her immediately. “No way. He’s not worthy of anything.”

Tiana fell silent at that response. Sage was definitely not fine at all.

“How could you stain the tuxedo? When I loaned it to you, I made it very clear that you mustn’t get any dirt or grime on it!”

At that moment, Sage and Tiana heard a loud voice berating someone else from the luxury tuxedo store which was located across from the store they were in.

Sage turned to see a tall and handsome young man apologizing to the salesperson in

the tuxedo store.

“I’m so sorry about that. It’s just that an accident happened at the venue I wore this to. Is it possible for the tux to be sent to a dry cleaner? I’ll foot the bill, I promise!”

“There’s no way that tux can get dry cleaned! Our tuxedos are all masterpieces produced by famous designers! The fabric used on the tuxes is extremely expensive, you

know!

“This tux will be degraded to a second–rate outfit if I were to send it to the dry cleaner! You have to buy this tuxedo right here, right now!”

The poor man looked rather flustered. “Can’t you just let me off the hook this one time? I don’t mind paying extra for the dry cleaning bill!”
