Although Neil was in the entertainment industry, he had the backing of his family. Everything had been smooth
sailing for him. He had never experienced suffering, so it was only natural that he did not understand the meaning
of money.
To him, money was just numbers.
However, it was the first time he heard Zephyr discuss money. What he said made sense.
“So, if Aurelia is willing to spend on me, it’ll prove she definitely likes me?”
“Um…” Zephyr scratched his chin. “Yes, theoretically.”
Neil was as excited as if he had hit the jackpot. He instantly took out his phone to call Aurelia.
“Hey, I saw a belt that I like. It costs $400!”
Zephyr almost spat the coffee. He widened his eyes to stare at the weirdo in front of him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat was not right. The best actor had been in so many movies that he should be smarter. How could he use his
script exactly!?
Perhaps Aurelia said nothing that Neil frowned and continued to test her. “Hey, did you hear me?
“No way. It’s only $400, and you’re scared?
“Aurelia, are you buying me the belt or not!?
“Hey!”
Zephyr was rendered speechless. He covered his face with his hands as he could not bear to see that.
However, not knowing why, nothing was going on.
Neil looked at the screen—she was still on the phone!
“Aurelia!” He faked a cough. “Don’t pretend like you didn’t hear me!”
“Ha, Mr. Harris has his eyes on a $400 belt? Can it be that you don’t have any suitable belts at home?”
Neil was shocked as the voice from the phone surprised him.
Zephyr noticed something was wrong when he saw his sudden change of expression. He quickly asked him to put it
on loudspeaker.
Neil remained calm and placed his phone on the table. He put his phone on loudspeaker and greeted, “Good
morning, Your Majesty.”
“You’re too nice.” Carmella chuckled. “How’s General Harris?”
“My father is doing fine.”
“I’ve been asking him to meet me.”
Neil had sweat dripping on the tip of his nose. He frowned as he was anxious.
“I’ll definitely pass your message to my father, Your Majesty.”
Carmella smiled and said before Neil could, “I have some old robes with worn-out embroideries, but I can’t bear to

“Are you okay with that, Mr. Harris?”
Neil stared at the screen while rubbing his hands. His shoulders were shaking.
Zephyr quickly wrote something on the napkin. “Say Aurelia can’t compare to the seamstresses in the palace.”
The former snapped back to his senses and took a deep breath in. He went along with Carmella. “Of course, I’m
okay with that. It’s just that… Aurelia doesn’t have proper training. I’m afraid she can’t compare to the
seamstresses in the palace.”
Zephyr continued to write. “Try to get her out.”
“Umm…” Neil continued. “It’s flattering that you want to hire her, Your Majesty. Maybe… I’ll get over there to bring
her back before she embarrasses herself.”
Carmella laughed. “Oh my, Mr. Harris! I like Ms. Aurelia very much. She’s very professional, responsible, and skilled.
Ha, no need to take her back so soon. I want her to stay here for a few days. I’ll pay her ten times more.
“I’m sure she needs the money!”
