As Charlie left the airport, he was behind the wheel of ire’s BMW, first taking Loreen back to the Shangri-La Hotel.


    During the ride, ire contemted inviting Loreen to stay with her again, but Loreen remained silent.


    While moving to Thompson First would bring Loreen closer to Charlie, she was also apprehensive about being around ine and Jacob. Their ongoing conflicts had turned the Three Views into a battlefield, making it ufortable for her as an outsider to witness their disputes.


    Additionally, Loreen harbored a lingering suspicion that the Wilson family was hiding a significant issue.


    This issue revolved around Jacob’s first love, Matilda.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    ine was unaware of Matilda’s past involvement with Jacob, which could lead to her being upset with him. If she found out, it would likely spark a confrontation at home.


    Consequently, Loreen felt that staying away from Thompson First would spare her from any awkward situations, and she preferred the solitude of the Shangri-La.


    Although being alone in the hotel could feel a bit lonely, it also offered her a sense of freedom. Even if she left a mess in her room upon waking, it would be tidied up by the time she returned.


    Thus, she firmly stated her decision not to move to Thompson First.


    After dropping Loreen off, Charlie and ire headed home together. ire, expressing her concern, asked, “Charlie, have you assessed the Feng Shui for Miss Sun’s house?”


    “I have,” Charlie replied with a smile. “The whole family is very pleased and gave it five stars.”


    ire felt relieved and remarked, “If they’re satisfied, we can rest easy about the payment.”


    She then inquired, “With all the Hermes purchases, didn’t you spend a lot of money?”


    Charlie answered honestly, “It totaled around one million.”


    “One million?!” ire eximed, feeling dizzy. “You spent that much on luxury goods when it could cover our family’s living expenses for an entire year?”


    Charlie chuckled, “Luxury items naturallye with a hefty price tag.”


    He then pulled over and parked the car. Reaching into the back seat, he retrieved a limited edition Hermès crocodile leather handbag and handed it to ire, saying with a smile, “Open it up and take a look!”


    ire carefully unwrapped the package and marveled at the exquisite craftsmanship of the bag, eximing, “This is beautifully made, and the leather is wless. It must have cost a fortune!”<fn992b> Get full chapters from find?novel</fn992b>


    Charlie replied, “This bag is indeed pricey, over 500,000.”


    “Oh my goodness,” ire said nervously. “More than half a million for a bag? That’s outrageous!”


    Charlie reassured her, “My dear, Hermès limited edition itemsmand high prices, but it’s worth it. These bags can appreciate in value; if we resell itter, it could fetch anywhere from 600,000 to 700,000, or even more.”


    ire expressed her concern, “But it’s still too expensive. I can’t bring myself to use it, and I don’t think my status warrants such an extravagant item. Maybe you should resell it!”


    Charlie quickly countered, “No way! How could I sell a gift I chose just for you?”


    He added, “My wife, you should use this bag with confidence. If it gets worn out, we’ll buy you a new one. As your husband, I’m now regarded as a master of Feng Shui. You, as my wife, should carry a bag worth 500,000. If you don’t, people might say I’m too stingy, earning so much but unwilling to buy a nice bag for my wife!”


    Seeing Charlie’s determination and recognizing the truth in his words, ire sighed and said gratefully, “Alright, my husband, I’ll trust your judgment. Thank you!”
