“If you can’t spend $200, 000 by yourself today, I’ll go to the mall and pick out sthings for you later.” If Debbie couldn’t even spend
$200, 20 in one day, it would only prove that the fancy cosmetics shops in Shining International Plaza were lower end.
“No, no—”
“Go to the Lounge to have a rest. I’ll have the manager bring the samples of everything to you so that you can decide what you want.”
“I said no-“

Debbie sensed that she didn’t have a choice.
“Okay,” she replied.
“Good girl. Remember to claim the Maldives reward at the service counter afterwards. Then don’t leave the mall yet. Go to the compartments for men and buy sarticles for me. Spend at least $200,
@@@ onas well. Let’s go to the Maldives together. Don’t you like the idea?”
Debbie wasn’t very impressed, but she had to play along.
Because if Carlos cand chose the cosmetics with her, he’d blow away far more than the $400, @0@ he was telling her to spend.
“Okay,” she agreed.
Carlos smiled.
“From now on, Zelda won’t be in charge of shopping foranymore. It will be your duty. I believe you’ll keep our skin care products in adequate supply.”
Later, with the help of the housemaids, Debbie moved the bags delivered to the villa by Shining International Plaza from the Living room to her bedroom.
She cautiously took the products out of the bags and put them on the dressing table.

Careful not to ruin her day by dwelling so much on the negatives, she told herself to unwind. Heaving a deep, reflective sigh, she pulled out her phone, took a photo of the items and posted it in Moments on
WeChat.
“For the 8-day trip to the Maldives, I shopped like crazy at the Shining International Plaza!” she captioned.
Since Carlos had been sleeping in her bedroom most of the tlately, and they had had sex the night before, Debbie thought he wouldn’t sleep alone in his bedroom anymore. So she kept his cosmetics in her bedroom.
The thought of what had happened Last night made her blush. With the palm of her left hand on cheek, she put one set of skin care products for men into her bathroom. There were only a few items for Carlos, but each was exquisite.
She marveled at the fancy packaging while she unpacked a face cream.
According to the sales assistant, the packaging had won the first prize of an international skin care products design competition. Did the packaging design make the product Look better? No, of course not, but it made it more expensive. That was the point.
