NovelEnglishBlair gave the clothes to the saleslady and went over to hold Cecelia’s arm.
“Thanks, but I have enough clothes at home. When I got my first job, my friend went shopping with me and I bought a lot…”
“But you bought those. These are from me… Um…from Niles. What’s more, these are the latest styles. You know, you can’t have too many clothes,” Cecelia said as she gestured to the saleslady, motioning for her to pack the clothes.
Wesley was about to check out. Blair strode over to him and grabbed his hand to stop him from taking his bank card out. Meanwhile, she told
Cecelia in a low voice, ook, Niles and I aren’t dating. Please, I can’t accept this gift…”

Wesley broke free of her grip. He didn’t help any, but just made it worse.
“Mom, don’t Listen to her bullshit. She and Niles are fighting,” he told his mother, who was still reeling from Blair’s words.
Blair was stupefied by what he said. ‘What’s he saying? A fight…with
Niles?”
Cecelia was at first disappointed by Blair’s words. Now she instantly understood after Wesley cleared that up. The girl said that because she was pissed at her younger son. The mother gnashed her teeth and comforted Blair, “Blair, don’t be mad. I’ll call Niles right now and give him a piece of my mind. Wesley, go ahead and pay.”
With that, the angry mother walked out of the shop to call Niles.
Blair was in a dilemma. Wesley was paying the bill, and Cecelia was calling Niles. Which one should she stop? She heard the cashier quote the total price for the clothes. It was a six figure total. That was too much. She suppressed her urge to go for Cecelia and turned to
Wesley, reaching out her hand to grab his bank card.
He grabbed hold of her wrist instead and stopped her.
Blair turned her head to look at Cecelia, unease increasing in her heart. As she tried to break free of his grip, she confronted Wesley,
“why did you say that to your mom? Why do you have to buy all these clothes? I mean it when I say I don’t need them. Besides, your brother doesn’t seem to have much money. He can’t afford it, and it’s not his problem.”

“I know my brother. I’m not going to ask him.” He Let go of her hand and signed his non the sales slip.
Blair was even more confused. ‘What does he think he’s doing? He told his mom he’d get Niles to repay him. And now he’s saying he’s not?”
Finally, Blair walked out of the store together with Wesley holding several shopping bags.
Cecelia was still raking Niles over the coals
When Blair approached her, she heard the mother yelling, “Shut up!
Don’t talk back. Just listen to me. What kind of boyfriend are you?
She’s such a nice girl. Whatever, if I know you piss her off again,
I’ll beat the tar out of you. Understand? That’s it now. Your brother and Blair are here. Bye.” The mom put her phone back in her purse after she was done.
