"You go on. I'll wait outside. People are going to laugh at me if they see a man like me going into a lingerie store. | think it's better for me to stay here. Take this card and spend however much you want. Then, show me everything you bought tonight." The man then gave the woman a peck after saying that.
The woman took the card and chuckled shyly. "Hey, we're in public. Behave yourself." The man patted the woman's butt before she went inside. Then, he saw Madelyn, who was sitting outside just like him.
His eyes instantly lit up.
However, before he could take another step closer to Madelyn, Zach's bodyguards stopped him. "Get lost if you want to live." "God, what the fuck are you being so aggressive for?" The man sat back down as he continued to stare at Madelyn, "Hey, hottie! Why are your bodyguards so aggressive?" Madelyn ignored the man who sounded exactly like a playboy from a wealthy family.

At that time, the woman who had just entered the store not long ago came running out in tears. She was limping and there was a visible bruise on her face.
"Babe, what happened to your face?" "The man inside did this to me. He harassed me and even tried to touch me. | stopped him and he hit me! Boo-hoo... you've got to teach him a lesson for me!" "Who is that son of a bitch who dared to touch my woman?" "It's him!" The woman pointed at Zach, who was walking out of the store with a bag in his hand.
The once arrogant man immediately panicked upon seeing Zach. Without any hesitation, he slapped the woman on her face, "Are you an idiot? That's Mr. Jardin, the CEO of the Jardin Corporation." The woman held her cheek as her gaze widened, and immediately stopped crying.
"M-Mr. Jardin, | don't know what this bitch did to offend you, but if you're still upset, you can slap her too. Oh, how could | let you lay your hand on such a filthy woman? Let me help you with that," the playboy said, desperate to suck up to Zach.
Madelyn watched the man slapping his partner again, but Zach did not even spare them a glance. Instead, he walked straight toward Madelyn and handed his bodyguard the bag.
Madelyn stood up, not wanting to hold his hand anymore, and walked ahead of Zach.
After they got downstairs, Madelyn asked, "What did you do to her? Why did you hit her so hard?" "She fell on her own." ‘Why would there be a shoe print on her face if she fell on her own?" Madelyn thought to herself.
Madelyn could still hear the man cursing at the woman and her crying from downstairs...
However, she was already aware of how fragile the relationship between wealthy people could be.

A man would be most irresistible when he stayed as attentive and gentle even after gaining wealth and power.
Everything that Zach had bought was for her.
In her previous life when she still loved him, she would be delighted if he took the time to go shopping with her.
But Madelyn enjoyed doing a lot of things at home instead, including cooking.
To her, that was what a home should be like.
