Chapter 783 "Mrs. McMillian, your taste is impeccable. You've picked out the crown jewel of our store." "Mrs. McMillian must really care for you, splurging on such an elegant and expensive dress for you." "I'm so envious." "Yes, you are indeed fortunate." Compliments flowed around Arabella. After a while, Jennifer had purchased quite a few items. George, unable to carry any more, called their chauffeur to ask where he was.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you at the entrance." After ending the call, George, weighed down by dozens of shopping bags, turned to Jennifer as he said, "Honey, I'll bring these bags to Gene first, then I'll come back to help you with your shopping." "Go ahead," Jennifer picked a few more dresses, asking Arabella for her opinion. She seemed intent on buying her the entire store.
Feeling neglected, George was about to take the elevator when a sudden pain shot through his back, his old ailment flaring up again.

"It's nothing serious, just my old back acting up. I'm getting old. It's only normal for me to have these kinds of problems." "| can carry it." Looking at George's arms laden with over thirty shopping bags, Arabella felt guilty.
"No need, | can handle it; George could never let his daughter-in-law carry the load.
"But your back." "It's alright, really." Just then, a female voice squealed in disbelief, "Arabella?" Turning around, Arabella saw Yolanda in a young man's arm, looking at her in surprise.
"Bella, is this a classmate of yours?” George was about to greet them.
To his surprise, Arabella averted her gaze and said to George, "We're not close. Let me carry the bags." "But you're still young, we can't let you carry these." "IL insist.
"No, really, | can." Seeing Arabella still being her dismissive self, Yolanda felt a pang of irritation.
"Yoli, is this the sister you've mentioned before?" Gerald had heard Yolanda talk about Arabella before, a woman who enjoyed being spoiled by older men, using their credit cards to fulfill her vanity, and scheming to put Yoli's parents in jail. She was a woman who looked down upon others and carried an air of arrogance.

Yoli, don't you think she's pitiable?" Gerald added, placing a supportive hand on Yolanda’s shoulder, looking down at Arabella from his high horse.
Arabella and George were both speechless. Both had the same thought, “What's his problem??" Yolanda didn't know who that middle-aged man was, but his arms were laden with dozens of luxury shopping bags, clearly showing he was wealthy.
She didn't expect Arabella, who she thought had settled down, to be mixing with an older man, and worse still, extorting him into buying her all those luxury goods.
Even with Gerald's decent financial status, he would never buy her so many items at once.
She didn't expect that older man to be so generous towards Arabella.
With those thoughts, Yolanda was eaten up with jealousy.
