Chapter 44: SHOPPING WITH BECKY

Their car pulled up in front of The shopping mall and Astrid swallowed hard.

Things are going to cost in this place, she thought as her hand clicked around her neck.

There her mind went to the necklace Julian had gotten to her but got lost.

Though he told her not to be worried about it, she can’t help but think about it all over.

Julian alighted from his car and gestured for her to do the same, his arms outstretched as she wrapped her hands against that of his.

She should keep to her promise so as not to make Becky sad.

"Remember our promise... you don’t want me collecting the money from tonight." Astrid nodded her head and they were about to walk into the shopping mall when Becky walked up to them.

"You have been living with her all these while, it’s time I get to know my daughter... isn’t that right?." Astrid felt a bit awkward at this.

She can tell Becky is a good mother, but showering her with love isn’t something she expects from someone who she had ruined her son’s wedding and also from a low background.

Becky pushed Julian aside, her arms wrapped around her waist as they walked inside the mall.

This is one of the most expensive malls in town, and the Logans are just walking in like it was just a normal routine for them.

"Welcome Mrs Logan!" The guard outside the door greeted and three of the mall representatives sprinted toward them.

"Welcome, ma’am Logan. What would you like?" Becky glanced at them and before she could give a response Julian did.

"Send every one out," Without another word, announcements are made as Becky strutted up to the VVIP room.

"Hey... I noticed you can get dresses on your side, I brought you one of the best so you can get them without any issue.."

"Dresses your size are just launched and I would want you to be the first to get most of them." Astrid’s mouth was left ajar, she could only stare at Becky.

"Take her and get her the best," Becky told the ladies before them and then they bowed and gestured for Astrid to follow them.

Walking toward the room, they opened, and Astrid stride inside.

"Wow... look who we have here," Astrid looked forward to hearing the familiar voice, it was none other than Maren.

"Oh..." Astrid felt a bit out of place, this lady was a billionaire she wouldn’t want to mess with her.

Seeing the guard behind her shows the status so well.

"Good day, it’s nice seeing you again," Astrid let out in the most elegant way she could muster.

"Hey. You don’t have to be formal," Maren let out as she came forward, pulling her hands.

"I expected your details the other day, but Julian has refused to send it." Astrid could only nod her head, she felt so inferior to the lady touching her.

"Stay back," she gestured for the guard seeing how Astrid was a bit intimidated, the guard bowed and shifted backward.

"Ma... ma’am Becky asked to show her the new dresses which have just been launched," Maren raised her eyebrow at this.

"Ma’am Becky is such a great lady to bring in one of the Logan, to grace my line," Only then did Astrid understand she won the place.

"Should we.." Maren shook her head, cutting the lady off.

"She is one of the Logan, I should be the one to take care of her."

"No. I am.." Maren placed her finger on Astrid’s lips, shaking her head.

"You are now a Logan," leaning closer to her with a small smile. "Act like it," that word might be a bit small for Maren but it meant a lot of work for Astrid.

She could only smile and bobbed her head in understanding.

"Come with me," Maren said, gently guiding Astrid through the gleaming glass doors.

Astrid’s eyes widened as she entered a room filled with an exquisite collection of dresses, meticulously arranged on rolling racks.

"They’re breathtaking," she breathed.

Maren’s face lit up with a warm smile. "I am honored to hear that from you, Astrid."

As they began browsing, Maren’s expert eye scanned the racks, selecting dresses that would complement Astrid’s figure.

"Let’s start with something corporate," she suggested, pulling out a sleek, navy blue pencil dress.

Astrid admired the dress, but Maren wasn’t satisfied. "No, no, we need to enhance your natural beauty first." She led Astrid to a luxurious dressing room, where a stylist awaited.

"Today, we are going to make you glow," Maren declared, as the stylist began Astrid’s transformation.

Astrid’s hair was styled into loose, effortless waves, framing her face. Her makeup was subtly enhanced, accentuating her features.

Maren scrutinized Astrid’s appearance, nodding approvingly. "Now, let’s find the perfect dress."

She presented Astrid with a stunning blue evening gown, its hue matching the sparkle in Astrid’s eyes. "This one, I think, will bring out your radiance."

Astrid slipped into the gown, and Maren’s eyes lit up. "Perfect! This blue suits you far better than the brown dress you wore earlier."

As Astrid gazed into the mirror, she barely recognized herself. Maren’s expertise had transformed her into a confident, sophisticated woman.

"You see, Astrid, to wear my clothing line, one must glow from within," Maren explained, smiling. "And you, my dear, are now radiant."

Astrid’s heart swelled with gratitude. "Thank you, Maren. I feel... transformed."

Maren beamed. "That’s the magic of the clothing line. Now, shall we pick some other dresses and add some accessories to complete your look?"

They pick some other dresses and Maren can’t help but be proud, "I launched this design for you." Astrid pulled Maten into a tight embrace.

"Thanks a lot," she mumbled almost in tears, then someone came forward and handed some makeup kit to her.

"Why?"

"For bond..." She whispered, Astrid’s eyes widened knowing it would be expensive but she pushed her outside before she could disagree.

A sound of applause was heard from Becky as they stepped out.

"Maren! I knew you would do your best, this is fantastic." She admired Astrid who lowered her gaze all this while.

"Mr. Logan, what do you say about your wife?" Maren let out in a teasing way, Julian could only swallow hard and couldn’t say a word.

"Wow... I suddenly went to a restaurant. And show the world, my beautiful daughter!" Becky let out, grabbing her by her hands.

"So you are going without me?" Julian glanced to his side to see Miles.

"You came late.." Becky announced.

Astrid’s eyes lit up as she saw him, for the first time in weeks Julian saw a smile on Astrid’s face which he wasn’t happy at all with.

"Oh... Gorgeous... you look stunning," Miles announced moving toward her about to embrace her but Julian stepped in their middle.

"Man... step back," Julain let out and Miles rolled his eyes.

"Mum..." Miles whines and Becky smiles proudly at this, seeing how Julian is possessive of her.

"Hey... I heard they are friends, allow them.." Julian pulled Astrid to his side as Miles scoffed.

He winked at Astrid who smiled crazily at him, "Good day to you too Mr. Adam.." Maren greeted and only then did he notice Maren standing there.

The warmth dispersed at his acknowledgment, just the way he acted with her.

She couldn’t help but be jealous of this relationship he shared with Astrid.

She has been trying to get closer to him for years but all he gives is a cold shoulder, how come he is building a nice relationship with her?

"It’s nice to meet you again," she stated, but he only gave a nod.

"My regards to your little sis," He stared at her and scoffed. "You scouted her, I am pretty sure you will see her every day."

Astrid was intrigued by this, he never mentioned anything about a sister to her. Maybe because they aren’t that close.

"Hey... Astrid... I would love to join you in dining with them," Astrid nodded fully excited as she saw Miles again.

She still can’t tell what feeling her heart tells her about anything she sets her eyes on him. She always feels the protective mode once he is around.

Maren has a keen observation about how his side’s cold faze turns to warmth as he talks to Astrid, she could not help but have one thought in mind.

"Getting to know more about Astrid and making her her close friend.

She had helped his sister to be closer to him and even made her one of the best models so she could get closer to Miles but this was hard.

She is pretty sure he has a good relationship with Astrid and this might just be her lucky human.

"Astrid... I would like to join you guys also," Astrid let out a small smile as she glanced at Julian.

"She is a friend... can you allow her?" Julian exhaled sharply now staring at Maren.

"You can,"
