When Elaine saw those two envelopes, her eyes were instantly fixed on them.
After all, for a woman of her age, she would attach the most importance to the maintenance of her body.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo put it bluntly, it was all about full-body skincare and body management.
Body management was a tricky thing for many middle-aged women. After all, many people would be lazy or lacking perseverance if they had to exercise or do things themselves in order to shape up their bodies. So, they often failed to keep up in the end.
However, skincare was much easier. They could just head to the beauty salon and lie down on the bed without having to worry about anything else. A large number of nimble and delicate young ladies would pile on various high-end skincare products on their bodies, and this would be equivalent to getting all of their full-body skincare done while enjoying the massage process.
So, the wives of many wealthy men generally loved going to beauty salons and health centers.
Still, the price and cost of this kind of high-end beauty spa were extremely high. 2 Generally speaking, it would cost at least five thousand dollars as soon as a person went in to do a full-body treatment.
Moreover, five thousand dollars was only for the most basic grade. First of all, the duration of the treatment would not be too long, and secondly, the brand of the skincare product that would be used for the treatment would also be relatively common. 2 Generally speaking, it would cost at least ten thousand dollars to perform a full-body spa treatment using a first- line skincare brand. If they were to use a super first-line brand such as the caviar skincare product that Charlie had given to Elaine back then, it might cost close to one hundred thousand dollars for the treatment, then. 2 Even when Elaine was doing very well back then, she never had the confidence and ability to go for a spa treatment at Shangri-La.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Isaac was actually giving her a VIP card to a first-grade establishment such as Shangri-La with an unlimited number of times and sum of money, this would simply meet and satisfy all of Elaine's skincare requirements! So, how could she not be excited? On the contrary, Claire was very embarrassed as she said, "Chairman Cameron, I feel rather embarrassed to accept such an expensive gift..." Isaac smiled and said, "Mrs. Wade, you don't have to be so polite with me. Two VIP cards are really nothing to Shangri-La seeing as Master Wade has helped Shangri-La a lot. If Master Wade did not adjust our Feng Shui for us, I'm afraid that Shangri-La would have already gone bankrupt and closed down." 4 Isaac was simply making up sstories, but Claire, as well as Jacob and Elaine, were utterly convinced.
After all, in their opinion, the reason why Charlie had becMaster Wade in Aurous Hill was because he could read Feng Shui, and many wealthy and big families had sought his help. So, Isaac's words were naturally not a problem to them.
Still, Claire felt that she did not deserve this reward. So, she said politely, "In truth, I'm particularly busy every day, and I do not have much tto go for a spa treatment. So, why don't you take my card back first? As for the other card, I'd like to thank you on my mother's behalf!" At this time, Charlie smiled as he said, "Wife, you shouldn't try to evade this kind of small matter. It does not matter whether you have the tor not. Both you and mom can just take a card each, and you can just go there directly in the future when you are free, then." After he was done speaking, Charlie intentionally said to Isaac, "Chairman Cameron, you don't have to giveany payment when I go and take a look at Shangri-La's Feng Shui the next time." Charlie immediately understood Charlie's intention, and he hurriedly said, "How could I possibly do that, Master Wade?!" 5 Charlie waved his hand. "Courtesy demands reciprocity. It is what I should do. I will accept the cards, so Chairman Cameron, do not try to evade this matter anymore." Isaac took advantage of the situation and said, "In that case, it would be better forto accept your offer deferentially rather than standing on ceremony with you!" At this time, Jacob, who had not said anything, suddenly spoke up a little embarrassedly, "By the way, Chairman Cameron, there is a favor that I need to ask of you. I wonder if it would be possible forto do so?" 3 Isaac hurriedly said, "Mr. Wilson, please speak up!" 2 "This is the case..." Jacob coughed twice before he spoke up, "The Aurous Hill Calligraphy and Painting Association is thinking of holding a painting exhibition soon. The venue has not been determined yet. We were initially planning to hold the exhibition at Treasure Pavilion. However, after the recent kidnapping and bombing incident, the citizens seem to be terrified of that location. If we choose to continue holding the exhibition at Treasure Pavilion, I'm afraid that no one would show up at that time. So, I was wondering if there is a suitable venue at Shangri-La and if it is possible for a collaboration?" 1
Isaac smiled and said, "No problem.
We have several banquet halls in o.m Shangri-La. Besides that, there is also the Sky Garden. Why don't I allow you to use the Sky Garden at that time, then?" Jacob said excitedly, "Oh! I thought that the Sky Garden was closed for public events? Chairman Cameron, will it cause any trouble for you if I were to choose to hold it there?"
Isaac hurriedly said, "It would be no trouble at all. The Sky Garden is a big place with high-quality furnishing and decorations. So, it would certainly raise the standard of the painting exhibition if you were to hold it here. Mr. Wilson, you don't need to be so polite with me!" Jacob was extremely excited as he said, "Oh! Thank you so much then, Chairman Cameron!"
After he was done speaking, he was a little uncertain a s he asked, "By the way, Chairman Cameron, I wonder if you know the approximate amount for the cost of renting the Sky Garden?" Isaac smiled and said, "Mr. Wilson, I heard that you are the executive vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association?" Jacob was a little embarrassed, and he smiled slightly as he said, "It's nothing more than a modest position, X
