CHAPTER 472
At that moment, without wasting another second, Camilla and her friends walked into the Arctic Store with slow, deliberate steps, their heels clicking softly against the polished floors. They kept their posture straight, shoulders slightly raised, acting as though they were too important to be amazed by anything ordinary. Yet their eyes couldn’t help but scan the interior in awe.The room was cold and pristine, matching the name Arctic. Pale blue lights shimmered down from above, casting a subtle glow over the white marble floor and glass display cases. The shelves were spaced out deliberately, creating an air of exclusivity. Every item inside looked ancient, yet refined—some plated with silver, others carved from wood so dark it looked black. A few artifacts were resting on velvet cushions, enclosed within transparent crystal boxes.The auditioneer, a slim woman in a navy suit and white gloves, moved gracefully in front of them. She was their guide, her voice soft yet filled with pri
CHAPTER 471
At that moment, someone from the group suddenly burst out, frustration clearly written all over her face.“Seriously! It’s like you all don’t listen to me. I’ve said it again and again, but no one ever listens,” she snapped, her arms crossed tight against her chest. “I’m telling you people he’s not the one! That guy is definitely not the person you all think he is!”Her tone made the others pause for a second. The weight in her voice wasn’t just irritation—it was certainty.“Camilla is right,” she continued firmly. “Think about it. A girl like her if she was really the one from Pasumika Zoo don’t you think she’d have an entire entourage around her by now? Bodyguards, assistants, at least a driver?”The others blinked, looking between each other. That point actually made sense.“And look at her clothes,” another chimed in, glancing at Soma from behind. “If she were that important, she wouldn’t be wearing something so… so simple. That dress? It’s not even designer.”At that moment, Cami
CHAPTER 470
At that moment, the sales representative’s grin widened as she gestured toward the sleek payment terminal on the marble counter. “Right this way, please,” she said in her most professional tone, her voice silky yet laced with excitement—because she already knew she was about to make an enormous commission.Camilla and Jason’s groups moved toward the counter, the faint echo of heels and polished shoes tapping against the glossy floor. The atmosphere felt thick tension quietly humming between them. Camilla’s chest was tight with anger; her hands balled slightly at her sides as she tried to maintain composure. Every step she took felt heavier, each glance toward Jason only feeding the fire in her chest. She wanted to confront him, to shout, to ask him why.....why he was here, and why with her.But she couldn’t. Not here. Not now. Her friends were around, and one wrong reaction could expose everything she had been hiding. She swallowed hard, forcing a smile that never reached her eyes.Ja
CHAPTER 469
Upon hearing what Soma just said, Jason couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle—then a slow, amused smile stretched across his face. It wasn’t a mocking one, nor a smile meant to provoke, but rather the kind of smile that came from someone who had seen enough of the world to stop taking every social reaction too seriously.He turned slightly toward her, looking at her with that calm expression he always wore when others panicked. His voice was low, steady, and gently firm.“Soma,” he began, eyes still holding that warm glint, “you need to stop trying so hard to satisfy everybody.”His tone wasn’t scolding—it was understanding, maybe even sympathetic. But behind those soft-spoken words was a truth that Jason had long ago embraced, a truth he now wanted Soma to see.“You can’t do it,” he continued, his smile never wavering. “You’re not going to satisfy everyone. No matter how much you try to explain, apologize, or shrink yourself to avoid offending people—it’ll never be enough.”Soma b
CHAPTER 468
At that moment, the sales representative adjusted her sleek blazer and reached for her iPad resting elegantly on the countertop. With a few swift taps, she pulled up a sleek pricing chart, the screen glowing softly in her hand. “Alright,” she began professionally, her tone even and informative. “The price for the Gold Tier is $50,000. However,” she paused and looked up at them with a faint smile, “the price for the Diamond Tier is $150,000.”Camilla blinked, her eyes widening slightly. She turned to her friend Cecilia with a small nervous chuckle and murmured, “So if we’re going for Gold, that’s $50,000 per person… which means $200,000 for the four of us.” Her brow creased just a little, as if the reality of it was still sinking in. “And if we’re even considering Diamond… well, that’s three times that. That’s $600,000. Do you think it actually deserves that price tag?”Cecilia didn’t respond immediately. Instead, she exchanged glances with the two other ladies beside her. The three wo
CHAPTER 467
At that moment, hearing what Jason just said, Soma was still stunned.Her eyes slowly widened, and her mouth parted slightly, not in shock but in disbelief. She tilted her head a little, searching his face like she was trying to read between the lines of his expression, hoping she wasn’t hearing what she wanted to hear, but what was actually true.“So… my father actually agreed?” she asked slowly, her voice barely above a whisper. “He agreed for me to actually stay here again?”There was hesitation in her tone, a fragile disbelief that clung to her words. She blinked quickly, her arms wrapping around herself like she needed to hold her own emotions together. “Like… are you sure you’re not lying to me?”Jason didn’t get defensive. Instead, he let out a small chuckle and looked straight at her with that same calm, assuring gaze he had mastered when things got a little tense.He nodded confidently. “Why would I lie to you?” he asked, his voice steady. “If you honestly think I’m lying, yo
